Our community
Shared curiosity.
Different perspectives.
We’re a volunteer-run community meetup group for Seattle-area residents interested in consciousness and the Monroe Institute.
What we might explore
Questions worth exploring together.
Topics reflect members’ interests, audio exercises, and guest speakers.
Consciousness & awareness
Expanded states of awareness, Monroe Focus Levels, and what we notice during consciousness exploration.
Sound & experience
Monroe Sound Science®, Hemi-Sync®, and audio-guided exercises for exploring states of consciousness.
Intuition & perception
Intuition, remote viewing, synchronicity, and how we make sense of personal experiences.
Dreams & lucid awareness
Dream recall, lucid dreaming, and the changing experience of awareness as we sleep and wake.
Beyond the physical
Out-of-body and near-death experiences, and questions about awareness beyond the physical.
Integration & daily life
Reflecting on our personal experiences and exploring how new perspectives shape everyday life.
Experiences, perceptions and perspectives differ. There’s no expectation of agreement.

An idea for a
local community.
The idea for Seattle Monroe Community Group began in 2025, during a conversation between Seattle-area residents on the Monroe Institute airport shuttle. They wanted a way for anyone interested in consciousness to connect and keep exploring closer to home.
The first Seattle MCG meeting took place in August 2025.
Our connection to Monroe
Local practice.
A wider community.
Monroe Community Groups bring people together for audio exercises, discussion, and guest presentations.
Our meetings are separate from Monroe Institute courses and workshops. For program details, pricing, and registration, visit the Monroe Institute or contact the trainer offering the workshop.

Listen with care
Take turns, make space for quieter voices, and respect the choice to listen without sharing.
Stay curious
Welcome questions and uncertainty. Personal accounts can be meaningful without being treated as scientific proof.
