Focused Mind, Open Heart

CMP is a secular meditation group, dedicated to the study and practice of a variety of mindfulness and heart-opening practices that are highly accessible to people of all religious backgrounds. Benefits of meditation include improved emotional regulation, focus, resilience, compassion, and mental and physical health. CMP’s teachings draw from a variety of traditions. CMP seeks to draw from teachers who represent the highest standards of ethics, scholarship and depth of practice, and CMP aspires to uphold these standards itself. Discussion and peer-to-peer learning are core to the group’s approach, in addition to regular, dedicated practice. CMP aspires to develop outreach programs, in order to bridge secular meditation to modern institutions, including schools, prisons, professional organizations, assisted living centers and sports teams.

No more than two colors. Some combo of Blue, Green, Purple, Yellow or Orange, White ... ?

Our name is long - open to creative ideas on how to incorporate our name in the logo (initials?).

Can draw from Buddhist or other spiritual symbols, but should not be overtly Buddhist (this is a secular organization and our audience is generally conservative and coming from a broad range of religious/spiritual backgrounds). Some examples of symbols:
