Great Lakes Meditation, a group of meditation teachers from Michigan, Illinois and other great lakes states including Ontario. We teach meditation free of charge because we consider it essential for the foundation of a balanced and peaceful society. We conduct on-site and online meditation workshops.
The wonderful thing about meditation is that it can be done anywhere! Outdoors, indoors, walking or sitting. We take advantage of this fact and use every possible method to teach and raise awareness about meditation as a solution. Here are some examples of programs we facilitate:
- Instructor led weekly classes
- Short seminars (60 – 90) minutes
- Weekend Workshops (2 – 3 continuous days of a weekend)
- Meditation Retreats (Camping and Meditation)
- Online Live Mediation Programs
