What we’re about

Welcome to Austin's Meditation Community! This group is dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for individuals interested in meditation, and living a happier and more peaceful life. We also explore topics such as spiritual guidance, leadership, accountability, and Buddhist Sangha interests.

Austin's Meditation Community is run by Brandon Mehrgut. He's the founder of Modern Mindfulness and an avid meditation practitioner.

Our intention in creating this group & movement is to give folks a space to meditate that's professional and also open to deep insight.

We've found folks who identify as professionals often don't have a space for learning meditation. Sometimes the scene is "too spiritual" or meditation isn't framed in the right way.

If you're interested in Spiral Dynamics, the type of person this group is for: Orange/Green & Teal (Integral).

Our view is to portray a meditative community that sees meditation as a tool for better success in life, and at the same time - a gateway to something profoundly deeper that can not be put into words.

We hope to see you at our future events, and deeply appreciate your consideration for joining.

With kindness,

Brandon Mehrgut
Meditation Mentor & Forever Student
