    Strengthening the Muscle of Attention with Fr Laurence Freeman

    At the first level of consciousness, meditation addresses the attention deficit in the human mind which early Christian teachers saw as being akin to the meaning of ‘original sin’. It is an especially acute problem of our time. Meditation does more than improve our capacity for attention, however. It expands our capacity for love.Watch the rest of the series on WCCM+, WCCM video streaming platform athttps://wccmplus.org/programs/strengthening-the-muscle-of-attention

    Training the Senses, Stilling the Mind:A Practical Guide to Transformation with Fr Cyprian Consiglio

    In this conversation, we sat down with Fr. Cyprian Consiglio, Camaldolese monk and musician, to talk about why the future of religion is surprisingly practical.Forget just "thinking" about the divine—Fr. Cyprian reminds us that our bodies are the "hinge of salvation." From yoga and breathwork to the rhythm of music, he explores how we can move past religious labels and into the actual phenomenology of the mind.Key Takeaways:The Body as a Friend: Exercise and diet aren't just for athletes; they are essential tools to still the mind for deeper meditation.Evolution of Consciousness: Our understanding of God grows as we mature through different stages of awareness.Music as Language: Melodies sneak into the psyche where words can’t reach, softening the soul for silence."The body didn’t just get peeled off like a banana peel and thrown away... nothing ever gets left behind. It gets sanctified."Read the full interview at https://wccm.org/interfaith-inter-faith/training-the-senses-stilling-the-mind-a-practical-guide-to-transformation/#WCCM #Meditation #InterreligiousDialogue #Mindfulness #IncarnationalSpirituality #MonasticLife #YogaAndPrayer #FrCyprianConsiglio

    Spirituality and Religion in a Time of Change with Fr Laurence Freeman

    A look into the rhythm and structure of monastic living, where silence, attention, and shared movement create harmony. This “choreography” becomes a model for a more mindful, centered way of living—something largely lost in today’s fast-paced, overstimulated culture.Continue watching the full collection 'Spirituality and Religion in a Time of Change' on WCCM+, WCCM video streaming platform. https://wccmplus.org/programs/spirituality-and-religion-in-a-time-of-change

    The Iceberg of Consciousness with Fr Laurence Freeman on WCCM+

    The next level of consciousness can bring us to face our shadow and the half-forgotten turbulent experiences of the past locked in the hard drive of our memory. Provided we don’t get into excessive introspection, meditation brings healing and liberation at this level. Understanding how grace works on nature during the work of contemplation is part of seeing the Christian aspects of meditation.Continue watching at https://wccmplus.org/programs/the-forces-of-the-unconscious

    From Mass to Meaning: Spirituality in the Age of Digital Identity with Javier, Mexican entrepreneur

    "I feel like spirituality is shifting from something that was conditional and embedded in authority into something that it's more like wellness, self-care, a little bit like self-centered in a way. It's very often a truth that suits me rather than me surrendering to what actually is. So overall, I feel like religion is going beyond the institutions and still subject to the ego, to the self." We are having a series of conversations with meditators from our global community about the WCCM theme for 2026, The Future of Religion. This time, our guest is Javier, Mexican meditator & entrepreneur.

    Christ as the Satguru: Moving Beyond the Ego in Meditation with Prof Peter Tyler

    This is a dialogue between Paola (WCCM Marketing) and Prof Peter Tyler, a long-time friend and companion of the World Community for Christian Meditation with an extensive academic career. Peter is presently Professor of Pastoral Theology and Spirituality at St Mary’s University, London. "Whenever I teach Christian spirituality, I always say there are two essential elements, two wings of the tradition. One is the desert monastic tradition. The other essential element is the one that forms the basis of the retreat, what's called the mystical tradition, a form of contemplation that's been around since the beginning of Christianity." Prof Peter Tyler will be leading a retreat titled 'Approaches to Meditation: Enriching Guidance from the wisdom of the Mystics', 28 April - 3 May, in Bonnevaux, France.
