Slow down the world with me.

The world seems to be changing faster than ever. Join me in exploring the ways we can slow down the world a little. Meditation, play, kindness, community, healing, introspection and rest. There are so many ways in which we truly live in abundance.

Pat Mannion

I am a meditation teacher, pastoral caregiver and men’s work facilitator. I created SlowDownTheWorld.com as a place to spread awareness of these and all the other modalities we can use to slow down a little. I have a large network of healers, so if you don’t find the tools here, perhaps I can introduce you to someone else who can help.

Meditation

My main form of meditation practice is Guided Meditation, which combines visualization, awareness and breathwork to take you on a journey of self discovery. I also practice vipassana, lovingkindness and walking meditation. Learn more.

Men’s Work

I have been doing men’s work for fifteen years. I facilitate several local men’s talk groups and regularly volunteer with the Men’s Center of Los Angeles, The ManKind Project and UU Men’s Fellowship organizations. Learn more.

Spiritual Growth

Spirituality means a lot more than belief systems and worship. I believe you have a personal spirituality that is yours alone, even if it shares a lot with others. As a “Uubu” I lean towards both Unitarian Universalism and Buddhism. Learn more.
