Scenario

When spiritual practice groups face conflicts over religious content and secular boundaries

Our meditation group started as a secular mindfulness practice, but some members have begun incorporating more explicitly Buddhist teachings while others want to keep it purely scientific and practical. The energy in our sessions has become tense, and people are starting to drop out rather than address what's happening.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
