I started coming to LBM in 2022 after I moved to the area. I’ve been practicing meditation for 10+ years. The teachers at LBM are unlike any I’ve ever met. They teach with great compassion and love. The wisdom and insight they possess is truly inspiring and transformative. Long Beach meditation is a place for both new meditator’s as well as longtime practitioners. Additionally, the teachers and members of this organization have become like a family to me. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. So grateful for this community!

Before my husband opened the door to LBM, I thought that I loved living in chaos! Turns out, I don't. Monday nights with Franz has been a guiding light in my life and a sweet date night with my Hubby. I honestly thought that I could not meditate and absolutely not for extended amounts of time. It is freeing to now be able to allow space for my emotions and pause before I react. I attribute this to the carefully curated, inclusive, caring, and thoughtful teachings from Franz. LBM's book club is also fabulous!

Love, love, love LBM! I started here about a year and a half ago and my meditation practice has never been more stable. The community here is so inviting and friendly you feel welcome from the first moments you enter. The teachers are extremely knowledgeable and provide a thought provoking and meaningful environment. Also, it’s donation based - can’t beat it!

I started coming here in 2016 and felt like I’d discovered a hidden gem. Soon after I started teacher a beginners class. The caliber of teachers is unparalleled in their sincerity in practicing the healing art of meditation, truly embodying the Way. I have never found a more kind and welcoming Sangha. I am grateful and honored to practice with them and teach at LBM. I hope to see you there soon.

This meditation community is so welcoming and inclusive. I immediately felt comfortable there and appreciate that it's all donation based. The teachers are knowledgeable and fun to learn from and I especially like all the different types of techniques and schools of thought they cover. I especially recommend the full moon meditation and they even hold community service events. I went to one of their beach clean ups and had such a fun time. This place is a Long Beach hidden gem!
