Yoga is a practice that unites the mind and body. In fact, yoga means “to yoke” or unite. It is an ancient healing practice that is both physical and spiritual, incorporating postures, breath, and meditation. Yoga heals! From numerous forms of trauma, anxiety, and physical stiffness, yoga provides relief and builds a strong physical and spiritual core.

Chanting and Meditation Group
2025-12-02 19:00 - 20:30 | Moon Room @ Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common Street, Natick, 01760, United States
This chanting and meditation group is designed to tap into our inner freedom. We will have two 15 minute sessions of chanting and two 30 minute sessions of meditation. Through the actions of chanting and meditation, the aim is to free all the thoughts and emotions stuck within our minds and bodies. And over time, the goal is to free ourselves from our unconscious programming we have built over our lifetimes and deepen our connection with Spirit.

The event is free and open to the community. Donations are welcome but not required and can be sent via Venmo to @Emmanuel-Weinman or by cash.

For any questions or comments, please contact Emmanuel Krishna by email: emanwman@gmail.com or phone: 978-578-9707

Open Circle and Community Brunch
2025-12-07 10:30 - 12:00 | MA
On the first Sundays of the month, we combine our Open Circle Gathering with a community potluck brunch.

We gather and connect in a more relaxed, less structured way, yet with threads of meaning and spirituality tying it all together.

You’re welcome, if it would bring you joy, to contribute a food or drink item to share as part of the community brunch. Another option is to bring non-perishable food or toiletry items for our free mini-pantry.

If you’re new to Open Circle, you’re welcome to sign up here so you can be in the loop for future gatherings: https://forms.gle/Aa18ZuGfyy4Nv3gq7

Our community is finding a creative place in the spiritual world, where new forms of spiritual practice, artistic expression, and self-awareness are emerging to support humanity to meet the challenges of our times. We are finding balance within ourselves, making peace across differences, and stepping up to protect the Earth.

We welcome folks of all beliefs and backgrounds to build community with us as we align around a hopeful sense of common purpose.
