Mindful Rebels is composed of interfaith and secular meditators who channel our fierce compassion into mindful nonviolent direct action maintaining ongoing pressure on the largest financiers of fossil fuel projects.
We rebel against our unjust and deeply harmful society by mindfully sitting in these disturbed spaces, making peace with ourselves, each other, and Mother Earth.
We challenge ourselves to sit with loving awareness of all beings. We sit in recognition of deep suffering. Taking time out of our day to NOT be busy, but to be present in the moment is an act of rebellion. Knowing there is another way, we sit with intention to raise awareness and inspire action to protect our Mother Earth and all living beings.
Please bring your own cushion or seat, water bottle, and dress for the weather. Please connect on signal for cancellations and other info.
Protesting is empowering; meditating is healing. Come and do both! - No experience necessary.
