Meditation Mentoring
About
I have seen commitment to meditation practice transform my life in an overwhelmingly positive way. As my practice deepens, I feel that sharing the fruits of this practice is a necessary next step for me as an individual.
I have a handful of years of devoted practice using breath and bodily sensations as well as loving-kindness meditation. Using empathy and connection with intention, I can help guide practice with conscientiousness and care.
I love to see growth, as growth is one of my personal core values. Other core values of mine include developing an inward and outward expression of love and peace. I find sharing a relationship with a fellow practitioner in a guidance context is an inspiring activity for both teacher and student.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First we will use a phone or video call for both you and I to fit - we each individually need to feel confident in each other for the relationship to be useful.
If we connect on this level, we can discuss logistics further and I will offer varying degrees of structure depending on what has worked for the student in the past.
If I offer something that does not resonate or you are seeking something that I am not comfortable offering, then we respectfully bow and part ways.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
45+ days in silent meditation retreats, 5+ years daily meditation practice, 200 hr yoga teacher training, various personal development and growth trainings
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Sliding scale from $50-150
Paying at a higher end allows me to keep a lower rate available for those with less financial means.
How did you get started teaching?
To deepen my practice I joined teacher training programs and have identified that I have something to offer. The sharing of perennial wisdom is such an important offering that helps both me and the student grow as practitioners.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
A recent insight I had:
I realized that nothing I am struggling with in my life is happening right here, right now; all the things I get worked up about are reactions to the past or the illusion of the future.
