A Unique Cross-Cultural Gathering

November 24, 2015 by Christine Lines 2 Comments

DA90F9E7-F1BC-4297-9E1A-3271A9C913DA.pngSince 2010 I’ve had the great joy of attending the Holistic Centers Gathering that takes place around the world every year. In October it was held in Asia for the first time in its 30-year history – a unique cross-cultural experience full of potential for the future of humanity.

Hosted by The House of I, we were nestled in the mountainous region of Yanqing, to Beijing’s northwest and 80km from the Great Wall of China, one of the sites of the 2022 Beijing Winter Games. I feel the Gathering shares an affinity with the spirit of the Olympics – nations coming together to foster understanding and friendship. [Read more…]

The 2015 Centers Gathering in China

Attendees of the 2015 International Holistic Centers Gathering.

By Rachel Davey

For the last ten days I have been in China, attending the first ever Centers Gathering to be held in Asia. It has been a rich and rewarding experience and I hope this article will give some insight into why.

The International Holistic Centers Gathering has been in existence for more than 30 years. It is a global movement for positive change, and describes itself as the principal meeting point for centers both well established and new that address the new consciousness currently emerging worldwide.

What I enjoy most about the Gathering is the spirit of collaboration that is fostered by the annual meeting, which continues through the year. The central ethos of the Gathering is that we are stronger when we work together, and our world view is one of abundance. Technically we are all competitors, and the fact that we share problems, solutions, ideas and reflections openly is deeply inspiring. [Read more…]

The 2020 Gathering…

The international Centers Gathering was originally being hosted by Esalen in May this year, the birthplace of the human potential movement,

Given the unexpected crisis around the world, with many people 'staying in place' and centers closing temporarily, HCN is now offering a virtual gathering for holistic centers.

We come together to meet the challenges, and embrace the opportunities of an ever deepening sense of community, in service to the renewal and rebalancing of the world.

Network of Light Meditation

Our global meditation to strengthen the network is every Thursday 2pm GMT.

We invite you to join Insight Timer and actively contribute to more stillness in the world.

When you join Insight Timer you become part of a world-wide community of more than 950,000 meditators in 130 countries.

This gathering has been INCREDIBLE. As a small center based way out in Yosemite National Park, I really feel folded into the greater network. This feels so vital. Thank you for creating this!
