About this Retreat
I am an entrepreneur, a husband, a dad, and a long-time meditator.
I was introduced to sitting meditation in 1990 at the Naropa Institute. Since then, I've done many months of solo and group retreat practice, mostly in the Shambhala tradition, which I left in 2019. While there, I served on the Board of the Boston Shambhala Center (twice) and the Karme Choling board (2001-2004).
I began teaching meditation in 2004. I've had the honor of sharing mindfulness practices at The Business of Software conference, Harvard Business School, MIT and many other institutions. Currently, I co-teach a free bi-weekly meditation class with the
Mindful Aware Meditation Group.
Here's a sample session. Feel free to drop in!
The mission of NDF, the inspiring teachings of the lamas, WonderWell, and the overall sanity with which you have built this organization is the most wonderful gift to the world. I am honored to serve it and you as a board member.

Written (or discovered) in 1968, the Sadhana of Mahamudra is more relevant now than it has ever been. This long prayer, which includes some of the most poetic descriptions of devotion, longing and awakening in English, is available to meditation students both new and old.
Combining the realization of the Kagyu and the Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism, the Sadhana of Mahamudra emerged at a time of revolution and tumult. The author, Trungpa Rinpoche, was struggling to find a way to connect his deep training in Tibetan Buddhism with the modern world. This sadhana was his answer.
Please join us this Sunday for a discussion of the Sadhana of Mahamudra, and then a group practice session. Most sadhanas are not available without finishing preliminary practices, but in this case the lineage holder has given us permission to do this practice at NDF.
Natural Dharma Fellowship’s Dharma Sundays are donation-based gatherings open to all, offering a wide range of topics. Led by highly trained NDF Dharma and guest teachers, these live, interactive sessions include guided meditation, teachings, and time for questions and discussion. Please join us to settle into the support of sangha and the joy of practicing together.
