Sign Up | Silent Meditation Circle with CandleX
Our CandleX’s Weekly Silent meditation refers to meditation without verbal guidance.
In today’s fast-paced and often disconnected world, finding a moment of stillness and connection can be a challenge. As more and more people are practicing meditation to find that improve their mental health, CandleX is excited to announce that we have created a space in Beijing, China for those who want to experience non-guided/silent meditation. The “Silent Meditation Circle” is a weekly event that offers individuals the opportunity to find peace, growth, and community in the comfort of a home environment.
Meditation has been shown to reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being. More importantly, meditating without external guidance gives people a space to observe their spontaneous inner self more clearly and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. Our meditation time will be supported by singing bowls and meditation music.
The meditation circle fosters a sense of community through shared experience. This practice is not just about quieting the mind; it’s about opening oneself to awareness of and connection with others. We humans have been circling since ancient times, back when we were hunter gatherers sitting around the fire at night – talking, bonding, or just watching the stars. It’s important for us to continue finding our circle and combat the isolation that often creeps into our modern lives. Sitting in a home environment, participants can share experiences, insights, and learnings, nurturing our collective need for compassionate presence.
