“I had trouble making time for meditation and when I did, had a hard time getting into a mindful state.
I now actively look forward to my meditation time”

Having trained in a formal yogic/Eastern tradition, I didn't have the luxury of asking random questions of my teachers... it was more an education of "acceptance." You have made the experience more common-sense and human. Thank you.
What is the SkillfulMeans Community?
We developed the SkillfulMeans Community after seeing the growing need for an open mindfulness community where people from different traditions with different teachers can come together and share insights, questions and support each other on their path to greater wellbeing.
This platform is divided into a few different sections:
