WeAddHeart: Online heart-focused meditations.

What is WeAddHeart?

WeAddHeart is a rapidly growing international movement for people who feel the pull to connect with their own heart and the hearts of others, to live life more fully from the heart and to create a more heart-based world.

Small groups are coming together, online, across the world to collectively experience simple but powerful heart-focused meditation practises. These practises  improve our personal health and happiness, help us to connect with the hearts of others and to play our part in raising social and global consciousness with the aim of creating greater fairness, understanding and peace between peoples and nations.

 

What will happen during the WeAddHeart meditation?

Small groups meet online on the same day (and many at the same time) each month. We use Zoom and participation is free.

We begin each session with a quick and informal greeting before we move on to practising simple heart-focused techniques, similar to meditations.

Specifically, we place our attention in our hearts, on our breath and on creating and sustaining positive and elevated heart-based feelings like care, appreciation, gratitude, and compassion. We will then spend time directing these feelings to ourselves, towards our fellow group members, towards a particular individual, group or situation and then out into the world.

The techniques we practise create individual and group “coherence”. Coherence is a real, measurable state characterised by increased order and harmony in our physiological (bodily) and psychological (mental) processes. It is an optimal state for individual health and for building deeper connections with others.

Towards the end of each session we ask ourselves a reflective question and receive the answer from our hearts. We also share a few heart-felt words with each other via the chat function.

The session lasts around 35 minutes.
