Overview: The Jewel of Community
People who come to the Florida Community of Mindfulness (FCM) for the experience of community find a spiritual family, a safe place where we learn how to live a life of open, honest and loving intentions and actions of body, speech and mind. Trust and friendships develop in an ever-deepening way.
Support is there in difficult times, and laughter and joy is always available as awareness opens us to the inherent connection to each other that has always been present.
