Come Alive: Meditation for People who Can’t Stop Thinking

Being always on the go, on the grind, and non-stop producers has us “living” our lives, but are we fully alive?

Here’s the truth: If you can worry, you can meditate. 

How? Join me for the chance to learn the truth behind meditation and why it’s difficult for so many people, and build a practice that doesn’t just help you relax, but becomes a tool to help you become more fully alive. 

Come to the beautiful grounds of Esalen and play, dance, sing, and develop a deep practice that you can take home with you. Awaken to the truth of who you are, your creative power, and your soul’s calling. 

With daily meditation practice, intentional ritual-building, TED Talk-style lessons, live music, morning movement, and a dance party — this class will rejuvenate your spirit and bring you back home to yourself. 

All are welcome. From “I never meditated before,” to “I tried it, but it doesn’t really work for me,” to “I do an app sometimes,” to life-long practitioners looking to learn a new technique of profound awakening through a dynamic way of practicing. 

What we’ll discuss: 

• Why meditation is hard for most people, and how to overcome the inner dialogue that stops you from practicing. 
• The five myths about meditation and how to avoid them when building your practice. 
• A scientifically proven way to build a daily meditation ritual that you can do at home, well after the retreat. 

This is your time to give back to yourself, do something fun, and remember the truth of your existence in a space of community, family, nature, kindness, and deep connection. Take your power back from fear and claim your true vision and story of your one big miraculous life.

From the ground up, this program has been designed to welcome people of all genders, races, identities, beliefs, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Expect a deeply rejuvenating week with a diverse group and a profoundly opening experience. 

You are worthy.
You are enough.
We rise together.
This is your time — come alive.
