My journey with meditation is rooted in Integral. I took up a daily practice after reading the hardcover edition of The Marriage of Sense and Soul in the late Spring/early Summer of 1998. How I’ve thought of my practice and the person doing it has been continually informed by my deepening interest in Integral. I was active for fifteen years in Shambhala Buddhism and for five years in the Diamond Approach. I am a certified coach/therapist in the Stages Model of ego development, trained for two years in Integral Psychotherapy with Mark Forman, and am certified in Venita Ramirez’s course on Advanced Human Development for Late-Stage Practitioners (which focused on embodiment, awareness, and subtle energy). I’m currently a therapist in private practice in Pasadena, CA. This offering is an experiment in further integration, to pass on what I have learned so far, to open up new inquiries, to take my own practice deeper, and to hopefully help whoever joins me to do the same.
