In this weekly online guided practice, we meet for an easy 30 minutes: a short intro, 20 minutes of guided meditation, and a few minutes at the end to come back before heading into your day.

Regular meditation is the foundation of any serious spiritual or magical practice. It's also just good medicine:

  • A more regulated nervous system and a sense of calm clarity

  • Sharper focus and heightened creativity

  • Reduced stress, anxiety, and low mood

  • Greater resilience in the face of pain and adversity

  • Less worrying and obsessing over things

  • A richer appreciation of the pleasant and enjoyable things in everyday life

  • Feeling clearer about what is truly meaningful, and living life with a stronger sense of purpose

  • Improved overall wellbeing, even in difficult times

Meditation is rarely one size fits all, and no single tradition holds a monopoly on the truth. By drawing from various lineages, I encourage an experimental approach where you can try on different styles to see what fits. Every reference is footnoted for full transparency, allowing you to verify the sources yourself as we work to identify the specific practices that deliver results for you.

Whether you've never meditated before or you've had a practice for years and want to keep it fresh, you're in the right place. This is a trauma-sensitive, non-dogmatic space designed for people who are curious but cautious, skeptical but open. Especially welcome: beginners, seasoned practitioners, and anyone who's felt burned or alienated by spiritual spaces before.

If you've tried meditation before and quit, you're in good company. Most people give up because the experience didn't match what they expected. The mind wanders, the silence feels uncomfortable, and it's easy to assume you're doing it wrong. Here's the truth: you cannot be bad at meditation. The mind is supposed to wander. Learning to notice that, and come back, is the whole practice. You're already doing it right.

All you need is a quiet corner, comfortable clothing, and 30 minutes. Camera on or off, entirely your call.

For members: Can't make it live? A full audio recording of each session is available to replay after class. Members also get access to the complete archive of past sessions, a growing library of guided meditations across a wide range of styles and traditions, plus 15% off tarot and astrology readings.
