He aims to bring mindfulness to people in a practical and usable way, presenting to schools, organizations, and the general public, and through workshops and retreats.

In this meditation, we'll practice becoming a more patient parent and partner.

Become More Patient

In this meditation, we'll practice letting go of our resistance to the way things are, and staying present to the experience with space and ease.

Make Space

In this meditation, we'll practice stepping off the treadmill of "doing" so that we can better take care of our personal needs.

Self-Care Is Not Selfish

When we fight our stress, we create more stress. In this meditation, we'll practice holding our stress with spacious, curious awareness, so that it can be processed and let go.

Build Your Stress Container

Much of our unhappiness comes from thinking we need to be someone "better" or "different." In this meditation, we'll practice reconnecting to our innate wholeness.

You Don't Need to be Fixed

In this meditation, we simply practice calming down the mind and body by making space for our experience without resistance.

Settling Your Nerves

In this meditation, we'll train our mind to access the natural happiness that arises when we are deeply present.

The Happiness of Presence

In this meditation, we'll practice re-grounding amid the stressful life as a parent.

Feeling Stressed

In this meditation, we'll practice embracing our anxiety as an ally rather than resisting it as an enemy.

Befriend Your Anxiety

In this meditation, we'll explore what to do when you can no longer have what you most want, and why it doesn't have to be the end of the road.
