Meditation
More and more people meditate, they do so because of mental health and longing for rest, focus or balance. Some meditate because of the stress-reducing effects or because of their religious or ideological beliefs. Whatever your reason for meditating may be, it is often easier to do so in communities, where you can make friends and share experiences.
A community like that you might find in the Mindful Library, a place for reflection, connection and discovery, surrounded by inspiring books. Located on the 12th floor of the VU main building, the Mindful Library provides space for meditations.
NewConnective organises weekly meditations, in a silent meditation group, a traditional Buddhist and/or a Christian meditation.
