World Meditation Day — Meditation Made Simple

Thursday, May 21 • 6:30 PM • Serenus Light, Makakilo

May 21st is World Meditation Day. And honestly? The world could use it right now.

This is a 90-minute workshop for anyone who's been curious about meditation but wasn't sure where to start, or anyone who's had a practice and just needs a space to come back to it. No experience necessary. No right way to sit. No requirement to "clear your mind" of every thought. (That's not really how it works anyway.)

We'll walk you through the foundations: grounding, focused breathing, and energetic protection. Then we'll guide you into a metta meditation, the ancient practice of loving-kindness. Metta is about sending compassion outward into the world and inward to yourself. With everything happening right now, both feel equally important.

Meditation isn't about perfection. It's about practice. You learn to notice when thoughts come in and gently release them, the same way you learn to navigate anything else in life. You don't run a marathon without first walking around the block. Start where you are. That's enough.

Whether this is your first time meditating or your thousandth, you're welcome here.

What You'll Experience

✨ Grounding, focused breathing, and energetic protection techniques ✨ A guided metta (loving-kindness) meditation ✨ Practical tools you can take home and use every day ✨ A supportive space with no judgment and no pretzel legs required

What to Bring

We'll be seated in chairs, but if you prefer sitting on a mat or have your own meditation cushion, you're welcome to bring it. Whatever makes you comfortable is the right choice.
