“If every child in the world was taught to meditate we would eliminate violence in one generation.” -The Dalai Lama

2025 Schedule: See the upcoming events calendar (to the right on this page)

Doors open at 6:30 pm and close at 7 when meditation begins. We end at 8 pm.

Begun with 8 women in January 2006 with small gatherings in homes, the Women’s Meditation Circle has grown to 500, with large community “go-to” events. It serves southwest Florida’s spiritual community in gatherings of friendship, respect, and devotion. We meet on the third Friday of the month. The Circle is a place where women come together, hold intentions of healing, of planetary peace, and focus on the raising of human consciousness. They honor one another and celebrate the gifts each woman brings to the circle.

Experienced guest meditation leaders are chosen to lead the group. Each leader comes from a different spiritual background, training, or discipline and is capable of holding space and leading groups. Meditations are varied, and include guided visualization, mindfulness, movement, sound and chanting as well as silence.

Donations

Rising Tide is the “home” of the Women’s Meditation Circle. We are committed to its care and respectful of the generosity of the center in allowing us to use it on Friday evenings. Therefore a donation of $10 is suggested – more if you can, less if you can’t. Rising Tide is a 501c3 organization so all donations are tax deductible. Checks should be made payable to Rising Tide or make donations with the Rising Tide Donation Page. Doors open at 6:30 pm and close at 7 when meditation begins. Specific information on each meditation is available on https://www.starsoundings.com/womens-meditations.html . For more information contact Jo Mooy 941-355-1414.
