Heart-Based Meditation: A Tool for Life

Heart-Based Meditation is a simple and easy daily practice that relieves stress, increases energy, supports healing, and encourages personal and spiritual growth and wellbeing.

If you are seeking a way to release the stress and anxiety of everyday life and find a greater sense of peace, joy and ease, I invite you to learn the life-enhancing practice of Heart-Based Meditation.

Heart-Based Meditation does not require you to go to war with thoughts or quiet your mind. Here, thoughts are welcomed, allowed and accepted as part of the practice.

If you’ve tried other types of meditation and felt you “couldn’t do it”, or are looking for a way to deepen your practice and learn a new technique, I encourage you to try Heart-based Meditation and experience the effortless and enjoyable practice that everyone can do!

Over this three week course, you will learn how to engage this practice to effortlessly experience a deep quality of peace, contentment, and appreciation for life. In the first week, we will learn the basic mechanics of the eyes-closed meditation practice. In week two, we will learn how to enhance our technique. In the third week, we will learn an eyes-open centering practice that you can use throughout each day to integrate the gains of meditation and accelerate your growth. It is highly encouraged to attend all three sessions!

What truly stands out about Zach is his incredible patience, kindness, and ability to carefully listen while creating a space that feels safe and welcoming. He has a deep understanding of the mind-body connection which is impressive, and shares his knowledge in a way that is both accessible and enlightening. Zach encourages a higher level of self-awareness, helping one to shift perspective and connect with a more centered, mindful outlook.

  • I found Zach’s presentation of Heart-Based Meditation to be very easy to engage with and quietly fun. His presentations were very well organized and thought out, making the class, as we progressed, empowering and satisfying. I enjoyed it so much that I am going to take the seminar again and have some friends who will join me to partake in this experience.
