Being Alone. Together.
It can be tough to build your meditation muscles alone, but together–with the support of community in a nourishing container–you can relax.
Why Silence?
Silence is an exceptionally powerful tool with a variety of benefits that can have a profound impact on our daily mental and physical well-being, including:
Stress reduction: Silence can help to lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol, leading to a decrease in feelings of anxiety and stress.
Improved focus and concentration: In a world filled with noise and distractions, silence can provide a much-needed respite and allow us to focus on a task or activity more effectively.
Enhanced creativity: Research has shown that silence can increase creativity and problem-solving skills, as it allows the mind to wander and process information more deeply.

“And I think you can live like that.”
The meditative practice is partly to clear your mind of your proximal concerns, concentrate more deeply on what might be regarded as eternally true, and open yourself up for a revelation in relation to what is always true.
—JORDAN PETERSON
“You are such a mystery.”
Our true depth lies beyond the domain of objective understanding. To know what we really are, we will have to go beyond the mind itself. This is the purpose of the Art of Contemplation.
— RICHARD RUDD
