If you’ve recently gotten into meditation, you might be surprised about just how many ways there are to do the thing. Some might be outright wondering—can’t I perform this glorified thinking on my own? You may be wondering what group meditation is all about.

If you’ve experienced the benefits of meditation yourself, you know that far more occurs than just thinking, or not thinking for that matter. Some people have more heightened experiences than others. This is because we are on our journeys and different waves of our respective journeys.

Group meditation is not about comparing but combining. Combining in intentions to meditate and center oneself can be healing, promote bonding, and establish a deep sense of community.

Not sure if you’re into it? Take the quiz to find out if a group meditation session might be for you.
