CHQ Mystic Heart Meditation Program
We serve Chautauquans by providing opportunities for the study and practice of meditation and contemplation practices drawn from many religions and wisdom traditions. We do not promote any one faith or path but practice in the spirit of inter-spirituality, introducing the essential truths and practices of many paths. Our mission is to help participants discover and manifest peace, compassion and kindness in themselves, their relations with others, and their communities.
We offer a full schedule of meditation practice sessions and classes throughout the Chautauqua summer season.
In 2025, we will offer:
- Morning sessions (Monday–Saturday) that allow participants to practice meditation under the guidance of experienced teachers.
- Morning sessions (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) Guided moving meditation.
- Afternoon sessions (Wednesdays) Therapeutic Gong meditation.
- Afternoon seminars (Tuesdays and Thursdays) that include a meditation practice presented by the guest meditation teacher of the week.
- Afternoon sessions (Sunday) “Church of the Wild” outdoor meditation.
Everyone is welcome. No prior experience is necessary, and newcomers will be comfortable in these sessions. No pre-registration is necessary, and no fees are charged.
