What We Offer
Did you know that the human body is composed of approximately 37.2 trillion cells and that through education, meditation, neuroscience and expressive creativity we can literally change these cells and our brain wiring to break through habits that no longer serve us?
Neuroscience
Understand your mind.
We teach foundational neuroscience – including neuroanatomy, behavior, and emotional conditioning – to assist participants in understanding their experiences and reactions.
Guided Meditation
Transform your mind.
Our practice of guided meditation develops greater self-awareness, cultivates positive neural patterns, and increases compassion supporting us to live with great confidence, self-esteem and to build resilience.
Creative Writing
Express your mind.
Creative writing offers a path to healing through story-telling and self-expression by connecting one's voice with their imagination. Expressive arts nurture the soul and connect us with greater purpose and meaning. Through the arts we can develop a greater sense of self and confidently express ourselves and voice.
Past Projects
Meditation, Education and Essential Supplies for Schools in India
In 2024 with funding from The Fredrick P. Lenz Foundation, through the Women in Buddhism Grant, and in partnership with Go Dharmic, we were able to bring meditation, neuroscience and school supplies to 550 students in the Nainital region of India. This included feeding the children, providing new backpacks, internet and cameras for the school, a heater for the classroom, chess sets, board games, badminton sets and even temperature resistant carpet.
Funding
Past funding has come through the generous support of The Milton & Rosalind Chang Career Exploration Prize, Fredrick P. Lenz Foundation and partnership with Go Dharmic.
