Morning Meditations
Lent 2026
Beginning February 16 and continuing through April 25, the Beyond the Walls daily meditation group will walk together through the season of Lent. Each morning, we will gather online for a shared time of reflection, following the path of Christ as part of a simple daily practice. Selected resources will support this journey, but the focus remains on prayer, reflection, and moving through Lent together.
Start your mornings with a guided meditation session on Zoom to cultivate your inner peace, wisdom, and let the Spirit flow through mind and body. Our goal is to build a supportive environment where all are welcome, whether you are experienced or new to meditative practices, no matter what your faith background or spiritual type might be.
We gather on Zoom Monday to Fridays at 9 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. CT / 7 a.m. MT / 6 a.m. PT
🕘 9:00 AM ET: meeting opens with casual conversation as we gather (optional)
🕘 9:15 AM ET: Guided session starts
🕘 9:45 AM ET: Guided sessions ends. We invite you to stay and share your reflections (optional)

Watch our meditations
Breathing, relaxation, and guided exercises. Experience deep relaxation. Learn to manage stress and anxiety. Deepen your spiritual practice. Our approach to mindfulness draws together Zen meditation and other techniques from the mystical traditions of East and West. We also incorporate the modern perspectives of neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and philosophy of mind. All levels, spiritual types, religious backgrounds, and gender identities and expressions are welcome.
We start with guided exercises to help us find the right posture and breathing rhythm. Then, we focus the mind and explore consciousness envisioning images and considering ideas that draw together ancient wisdom and mythology from the Eastern and Western traditions with up-to-date theories in the fields of neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and philosophy of mind. We follow with a few minutes of gentle yoga to relax the core muscles in preparation for 10 minutes of silent unguided meditation.
All levels are welcome. This is a judgement-free, non-competitive environment. You can either sit on a chair or on a meditation cushion. You can bring a change of clothes to make your practice more comfortable.
