I am excited to announce a new weekend retreat I will be offering May 21-23, 2010: Essential practices for well-being. This will be a special weekend of relaxation, meditation, Tibetan yoga, and practices for opening the heart and opening the senses. All held at the beautiful Ratna Ling Retreat Center. Check my website for enrollment information — should be any day now.

In case you did not make it to the SwissNex meeting in San Francisco, we had a great day of meditation and research. Here is a cool video snippet the SwissNex folks put together to commemorate our lovely day.

Hi Folks:

I will be speaking on my research on the Shamatha Project (on a panel with other meditation researchers) and teaching a meditation session at the SwissNex conference on “Science of Meditation” in San Francisco, this Friday, October 16, 2009. For more information see the SwissNex website. This event is open to the public.

Hope to see you there!
