WHO WE ARE
About Us
MISSION
To support the growth of conscious communities
VISION
We envision a world where leaders have the skills and resources to bring compassion and collaboration to the communities they serve.
VALUES
Compassion, Community, Curiosity
Raising the Vibe offers our community of spiritual seekers personal transformation tools to awaken to their full potential. We are a 501 (c)(3) non-profit based in Atlanta hosting weekly Zoom sessions, monthly small group discussions and a quarterly speaker series.
Our Definition of a CONSCIOUS COMMUNITY
Communities that are aware of the big picture interconnectivity of all life and recognize that we are all co-creators, connected to a higher force. There is a deep understanding that collaboration and compassion are paramount to living in harmony.
RTV Speaker Series
RTV will host about four inspirational and instructive speakers each year. These events are open to all. Invitations are sent to all contacts as well as promoted on social media. They are typically in the evening, 7:00pm (arrivals) with a program from 7:30 - 9pm. The goal is to raise awareness about a particular topic while promoting our partners and building community. During the pandemic we are holding Zoom events.
RTV Small Groups
Meetings are on the third Monday of each month. Arrivals and social time begin at 9:30am, with the discussions beginning promptly at 10:00am and wrapping up by 11:30. Meeting locations vary from month to month, usually at the home of one of the members. Additionally, we have instituted weekly Zoom calls for Raising the Vibe members to keep us in touch virtually during the pandemic. Wednesdays at 10:00 Rebecca Becker hosts a Zoom call to discuss spiritual topics and on Fridays Kate Becker leads a Zoom group meditation and healing circles.
Acknowledging the good
Our Story
"Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance."
- Eckhart Tolle
All are welcome at Raising the Vibe!
We are a non-denominational group of seekers who study, explore and experience what brings peace, joy and fulfillment to the human spirit. We strive to create, support and sustain conscious communities. Our goal is to be part of the global dialogue that encourages mindfulness in our world, our countries, our neighborhoods, as well as within our families, our closest relationships and our own hearts.
RTV started as a non-denominational spiritual book club in February 2018 with 8 members. Led by Rebecca Becker, the group soon grew to over 25 members and began a closed group Facebook page named Raising the Vibe. Through a network of friends, RTV invited an Atlanta-based author to speak at the meeting in January 2019. Thus the RTV Speaker Series was born. Soon thereafter, the monthly book club meetings morphed into the RTV Small Groups, which are more intimate gatherings with lively discussions. By the spring of 2019, the group leaders felt inspired to go a step further and create a non-profit organization with the goal of developing mindful leaders in our community. RTV’s 501c3 status was finalized in April 2019. On May 6, 2019, RaisingTheVibe.org was launched. Additionally, a weekly intention group was formed, based on the model put forth by Lynn McTaggart in her best-selling book, The Power of Eight.
Our goal is to develop and support mindful communities that recognize the interconnectivity of all of life. We believe that there can be no outer peace without inner peace. To quote Margaret Mead...
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
As a newly formed 501 C3 organization, RTV is run 100% by volunteers. Donated funds will cover the ongoing costs associated with event costs, and building and maintaining a robust RTV community. Currently, we are solely reliant on donations from the people who attend our speaker events or who donate through the website. For inquiries about getting involved with our Speaker Series, Small Group Book Clubs, Power of Eight Intention Groups, or any other information about RTV, please email us at info@raisingthevibe.org.
