WISDOM TALK - Meditation for Social Change with Meditation Without Borders
Event description
Join Kristen Vandivier (USA) and Isabel Keoseyan (Mexico), the founders of Meditation Without Borders, to discuss how Vedic Meditation is not just a self-help practice, but is a major catalyst for healing the world’s crisis of suffering.
Isabel and Kristen will share their stories of bringing meditation to areas of greatest need including a homeless encampment, cancer centers and to safe spaces for women survivors of domestic violence in Rwanda.
We’ll explore all the ways in which your twice-a-day meditation practice is situating you to be in the position to enact real positive change and how to lean into that potential.
This session is open to anyone who is eager to change the world from the inside out.
About Meditation without Borders:
Meditation Without Borders is a 501c3 non-profit organization based in California founded by Vedic Meditation teachers Kristen Vandivier and Isabel Keoseyan in 2020 in order to bring meditation to areas of greatest need in order to relieve suffering on the individual and collective level.
We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to access the life-enhancing effects of Vedic Meditation. We founded Meditation Without Borders to make meditation available to everyone, starting with the people who have the greatest need: those who are often pushed aside, overlooked and under-supported. Not only does meditation support people directly and individually, it also serves a higher-order purpose in easing global suffering and conflict by closing the gap between self and other, effectively healing the entire world.
