Since 1975 I've been exploring the breadth and depth of meditation and visualization. I've maintained a meditation practice for these past 40 years. And I have traveled to India 5 times on meditation retreat. I help people to restore a calm and balanced mind. This is naturally one of the building blocks for good health and well-being. I also teach people the inter skills of intuition and creativity. I maintain a website about meditation and YouTube channel with plenty of guided meditations and visualizations. Thank you for visiting - I hope you find the skills for your inner exploration.
