About Your Teacher:

Dr. William Jackson is a clinical psychologist, meditation teacher, and the founder of SkillfulMeans. In 2005 he gave up everything, flew to Burma, and embarked on the life-changing inner journey of a simple Buddhist monk. 

As a monk, he would often spend 4 to 6-months, deep in the jungle meditating for 12 to 14 hours a day. On one of these retreats, 4 years into his training William had a profound insight that would later lead him to leave the monastery, and earn a doctorate in psychology.

In the years that followed, William created the SkillfulMeans approach to wellbeing combining traditional meditation training with modern science-backed approaches to mental, emotional, and physical health.
