Meditation Classes, Series and Consults for Individuals
Take a beginning Meditation Series to uncover the spaciousness that is your natural state of being.
Join me in exploring the practice of meditation. I am a teacher-in-training and teach the technique called TMI from The Mind Illuminated by Upasaka Culadasa. It is a technique that can be practiced on its own or with any type of meditation technique to help you progress in your practice and experience more amazing benefits from meditation :)
I use the strong infrastructure of TMI to explore meditation with my students and provide individualized assistance for Stages 1-6. I bring experience and understanding of the powerful relationship between the energetic, physical and mental bodies to compassionately facilitate the progress of your practice. This perspective can enable your mindfulness to become seamless both on and off the cushion. To enroll in an individual 30 minute consult go here. For classes and weekly sits, see below.
