We are an Intentional Faith-Based Organization (FBO). We focus on the mindful application of BREATH to heal our Spirits. We apply breathwork, healing sounds, nutrition, environments, sacred plant medicines, and the mindful application of therapeutic presence.

Metta, is an ancient Pali word, defined as loving-kindness, it points to an attitude of universal love radiated to all living beings without discrimination. It is the light and presence of our being.

We are focused on moving past the dogmas that can keep us apart. Theology and spirituality are bridges to a deeper consciousness and awareness. Through our work together, we focus on the gifts of life, the breath as pathways to the present, and the sacraments as a window to our divinity.

We focus on creating a

"safe space"

We provide spiritual guidance, teaching, meditation, and support for individuals, youth, and families, sharing in the ceremonies of life, births, deaths, and memorable moments.

Our Ministry & Sacraments

MettaTouch Ministry provides sacramental services that aid in spiritual growth and well-being, from prayer, meditation, and spiritual healing to commitment and marriage ceremonies, relationship counseling to death and dying services, sacred plant journeys, and integration. Our holistic approach honors the individual traditions of each participant while providing an emotionally safe space for exploration, connection, healing, closure, and growth across all areas of life.

Commitments and Weddings

Commitment and Wedding Ceremonies are sacred rituals that join two individuals in a union of love and commitment. MettaTouch specializes in officiating ceremonies that honor the individual beliefs and religious traditions of each person united as a couple in love.

As a part of the wedding package, MettaTouch provides counseling for couples who want to build on their mutual understanding and strengthen their bond before or after marriage. This type of counseling seeks to create a safe space for both partners to express themselves freely and openly, allowing them to communicate with respect, kindness, and care.

Relationship

Counseling

For those needing assistance with difficult relationships with people, places, or things, we offer one-to-one support. Relationship counseling is tailored to individuals, or couple's needs. Counseling sessions help individuals and couples explore the sources of their problems and develop constructive solutions for navigating their differences. People, substances, behaviors, attachments to old ways and behaviors can get in the way of our ability to "show-up" in life. Our relationships counseling appproach looks at both psychological and physiological issues that can get in the way of emotional freedom, and playfulness.

Death & Dying

Transition

Death and Dying is another sacred service offered by MettaTouch. We provide support for those facing death through a compassionate and non-judgmental environment where people can share their thoughts and feelings without fear or shame. We assist individuals in preparing for death with emotional support, sacred sacraments, and help individuals make peace with life decisions, find closure with loved ones, and begin the grieving process. Ceremonies include prayers, blessings, and honoring of the transition, in the comfort of your home, hospice or other preferred location.

Sacramental

Connection

Whether you are an individual, couple, or group seeking a profound inner journey through ancient practices, we warmly invite you to participate in an enlightening insight ceremony.

A unique journey experience empowers you with both the technology and wisdom to connect deeply with sacred plant medicines, elevating your consciousness and experiencing transformative effects in your body, mind, and spirit.

A team of skilled facilitators ensures a safe and supportive environment, guiding you every step of the way, ensuring seamless integration and activation of your newfound insights and commitments.

We are microcosms of potential, in a macrocosm of universal energy.

"THE METTAVERSE"

WE MANIFEST UNIVERSAL ENERGIES

We are Intentional in Practicing the Art of Loving-Kindness as Spirits in Action

Regardless of your path, the truth is the same. We all hope to be seen, heard, recognized and appreciated for our uniqueness. We all hope to have food, shelter, clothing, and someone we can love and be loved by, to be seen and appreciated for who we are.

Our community focuses on these universal principles to honor and love yourself and others. Through ongoing prayer, mindfulness, and meditation, we seek to collectively elevate each other to be of greater service to whatever path we follow so that we may help others.

OUR UNIVERSAL BELIEFS

We believe in "Universal Consciousness," which honors and values the fundamental beauty and wisdom in ALL paths and traditions.

We believe there are many paths toward "God" (the ineffable universe, unknowable & unnamable).

We recognize that "God" is more significant than any religion and is more than a noun or a verb and that the breath of life, spirit, is in ALL breathing living things and ALL people.

We acknowledge that we are all created in a fantastic variety of ways - we come in all sizes, shapes, and colors, with different needs and tastes.

We believe that it is not the form of religious practice that is important but the spiritual intent that underlies it.

Our "Universal Conscious" path strives to promote genuine respect for all the diverse paths. Respect differs from tolerance, for tolerance implies merely putting up with something you find disagreeable, whereas respect involves valuing and appreciating something for its true nature.

This does NOT mean we advocate blending all religions into one great big super-religion. The motto of "Universal Consciousness" is "Never instead of... Always in addition too." Many of the people in "Universal Consciousness" are devout followers of a particular path. We believe that all people deserve refuge and compassion and are worthy of wisdom that sits, listens, sees, and honors the unique differences in us all.

Our actual journey in life is to learn LOVE and FORGIVENESS. We believe that anyone who practices loving kindness and compassion honors the divine.

In short, the philosophy of MettaTouch is best summed up in the Hindu saying, "For those in whom Love dwells, all the world is one family."
