“There’s a rolling river in the center of your soul; an eternal giver with a rich and endless flow.”  -James Cavanaugh 

Teaching this class feels like a natural step for me.   I have developed a trust in the qualities of awareness and compassion that are the fruit of Mindfulness Meditation over the course of my life, thus far.  I have explored the life of the soul through the study and practice of the teachings of Jesus, through Silva Mind Control, Yoga, and the teachings on meditation and Buddhist philosophy through Thick Nhat Hahn, Matthew Frum (Tenzen), Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. I believe that what I have learned, and what I want to share in this course,  is something that can make a difference, a small contribution to helping each of us awaken to the goodness inside. I believe, as Mother Theresa said, “There are no great acts, only small acts done with great love.” I also believe that small acts done with love are contagious; the very thing that make the world a better place.
