The practice of meditation is central to the mission of Wainwright House. Encouraging regular meditation practice in our beautiful wood-paneled Meditation Room overlooking the harbor, or in our Meditation Garden, is one of the ways we serve the community.

| Meditation for World Peace |
Tuesday, September 21 and September 28
1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
This guided meditation allows those who have never practiced meditation, and those who are experts, to partake in a movement to promote world peace by embodying and simultaneously sending out the vibration of peace and love. Your participation will send the energy of peace to the world bringing about the energetic shift needed for peace to reign upon the earth. As one participant said, "... Everyone was moved by the power of the group meditation, and we all left feeling as if we had truly made an energetic difference in the world."
While in meditation, Theresa will channel grace to the entire group. Grace is the freely given love of the Divine. When Theresa channels grace during the Meditation for World Peace it fosters an environment in which the participants feel a deep sense of peace and well-being while they send healing energy around the world.
As one participant said about a group channeled grace session, "Today was so powerful and extraordinary that it was hard to put it into words...I feel blessed to have been brought into your Light...and to have been able to experience that Joy and Love that you channel. Thank you a million times."
Your participation will send the energy of peace to the world bringing about the energetic shift needed for peace to reign upon the earth. We are pleased that Linda Fallo-Mitchell will help facilitate each meditation session.
