meditation group
Collective stillness practice
A meditation group is a gathering of people who practice meditation together, typically meeting regularly under shared guidance or structure.
The group setting provides accountability, instruction, and a sense of community that solitary practice may lack: I joined a meditation group at the yoga studio.
Such groups range from informal circles to structured sessions within Buddhist sanghas or secular mindfulness programs.
