Meditation and Spirituality Room

MORSL's Meditation and Spirituality Space: Spirituality and meditation can look very different for different people- just another example of how we are all unique! MORSL provides space and resources for students to pursue, begin or experiment with self-directed activities such as spiritual reflection, meditation, mindful colouring, contemplative reading and journaling. No appointment necessary, and no time limit on your practice. We also offer classes and weekly group meditation programs. Learn more about our drop-in centre.
-
In addition to MORSL's drop-in space, the university also provides various drop-in quiet spaces for spirituality, rest and reflection. No appointment is needed, and the policy is first come, first served. These spaces are open and available during the associated building's regular hours. Locations are included in our map of McGill Quiet Spaces and Adjacent Prayer Spaces.
-
For off campus options, MORSL maintains an extensive multifaith directory of places of worship that is available as a PDF directory and a map, organized by faith tradition. You can find a smaller selection of locations near the downtown campus on our map of McGill Quiet Spaces and Adjacent Prayer Spaces.
