We are living in a Critical Moment.

The crises facing us are numerous: boiling oceans, collapsing ecosystems, a new gilded age, genocide funded with our tax dollars, the rise of techno-feudalism, and so many other horrors.

It’s hard to face all this without falling apart, or turning a blind eye.

But it’s also not enough to simply witness these things, and to have the right opinions about them. We need skills for staying grounded while confronting these issues. It’s not enough to be on the right side of history. We have a moral duty to win.

We are living in the critical moment. Despite our memories of the past, and our expectations for the future, the present moment is all we have. Learning how to live in this moment is an indispensable skill for anyone trying to correct the course of history.

The goal of this project is to empower people who are rising to the occasion of this critical moment. I want to teach you the techniques of meditation and contemplation so that you can organize your communities from a place of stability, confidence, and resilience—so that you can see the world and its problems with clarity and without bias.

A future where we win starts now, in the critical moment.

Meditation
for Liberation

A meditation practice can make you more present, patient, and disciplined. It can make you less reactive, distracted, and confused. It gives you clarity to see the world without judgement or bias, and it can help you reconnect with your role in the world’s ecology. But it only works if you learn the technique, and commit to the practice.

Whether you’re a long time organizer or fresh on the scene, a meditation practice can help sustain you and make you more effective as you show up for your community.

For these reasons, I offer free mindfulness meditation workshops to community organizations and community organizers.

Build A Meditation Practice

Meditation is a practice that most people will benefit from, and if you're interested in cultivating your own practice, I want to help you.

While I offer free workshops to community organizations doing liberatory work, I also provide individual instruction and group workshops for those seeking more personalized instruction, offered at a sliding scale.

  • Individual Meditation Instruction

    Individual meditation instruction is an opportunity to cultivate and deepen your meditation practice with the help of a guide. While it is possible to embark on this journey alone, it can be more fruitful and less confusing to bring along someone who has walked the path before you.

    Individual instruction is available to small groups (1-4 people) at one rate, so bring your friends!

    $50-$120 per session, sliding scale. Please pay what feels sustainable for your circumstances.

  • Group Meditation Workshops

    I offer group workshops for any group of people, whether that’s a workplace, a club, an affinity group, or just a big group of friends. These workshops range from 4 to 6 weeks, and the sessions vary in length.

    If you’re interested in a group workshop, please fill out the interest form.
