Meditation

A sitting practice, learned from many teachers

Meditation is the thread under everything else on this site. The attention I bring to a brand, a poem, or a photograph starts on the cushion.

I'm a certified meditation teacher, and I'm still very much a student. My practice has been shaped by Korean Zen, by Christian contemplatives, and by teachers who meet people where they are.
