Upcoming Events - Mindful Kansas City

When: August 13 (Saturday) from 10:30 am – noon online via Zoom

True, embodied mindfulness is both a practice and a way of living – we are mindfully engaged, moment by moment, with others and the world. A true democracy depends on everybody having a voice. Join us for a special FREE gathering combining both of these values online via Zoom. This is a kind and accessible way to make a difference – research shows handwritten letters increase voter turnout. During our time together, we will enjoy a meditation wishing peace and unity for the people of the US, discuss the ways in which mindfulness can help contribute to a co-creating a more sustainable and equitable world, and write letters to encourage Americans to vote in upcoming elections. This is a non-partisan event and we will not be discussing our political affiliation or beliefs beyond our strong commitment to peace, unity and democracy.

Join Kansas City metropolitan community members from the sectors of business, mental health, education, environmental stewardship, law enforcement, religion, etc. for the next Mindful Kansas City Initiative planning meeting. We are exploring ways in which applying the skills and attitudes of mindfulness to our relationships with ourselves, others and our environment, the work we do, and our everyday lives, might offer an upstream approach to addressing some of our community’s most pressing concerns. We are operating from a belief that increasing awareness of and exposure to the practices of mindfulness can help create a paradigm shift and change in consciousness required for deep and sustainable beneficial change.
