I am very, very fortunate to soon start a new venture. I will be teaching an 'Introduction to Meditation' course at Integrative Therapies and Wellness Center (www.itwellnesscenter.com) in Union, Connecticut.

I took my first meditation course during 1991, when I had a job that I hated (which caused painful migraine headaches), I had been recently married, and my cousin and her eight-year-old daughter had died in a house fire.

During that time nothing seemed 'right.' But, I was fortunate enough to have some wonderful teachers who taught about the calm awareness of the mind. They helped me and I will help my students, too.
