Many of us meditate alone and reflect internally. But without community, it feels like something is missing.
The Sacred Sessions are an opportunity to explore our inner-world collectively. Leaving our phone at the door, we gather in the beautiful Oude Kerk for 75 minutes of contemplative practices, spiritual teachings (mixed with philosophy and poetry), and group reflection.
The sessions are inspired by the seasons. Summer invites us to revel in abundance. Fall calls for discernment and mourning. Winter is a time for listening and rest. Spring beckons us towards hope and renewal.
Fall 2024 Edition
October 10th, 20h. Merry be Thy Mischief
Despite algorithmic predictions and recommendations settling into the culture, we also feel like we’re alive in unprecedented times. Let’s hop into the paradox and see what sly gifts it has to offer. We’ll play with philosophy of Nora Bateson and Báyò Akómoláfé, and dare a little improvisation.
