    Meditation in Hawaiʻi

    Hawaiʻi has long been a gathering place for meditation traditions from across the Pacific Rim — Zen, Vipassana, Tibetan Buddhist practice, Transcendental Meditation, yoga nidra, and Hawaiian contemplative practices rooted in hoʻomana (spiritual empowerment) and nalu (the practice of moving into stillness, like a wave). The islands' multicultural fabric means meditation instruction here rarely comes from a single lineage. Teachers bring training from Japanese Rinzai and Sōtō Zen traditions, Theravāda practice in the Thai forest tradition, Tibetan transmission lineages, and secular mindfulness programs like MBSR and MBCT. Many integrate their practice with adjacent modalities like breathwork, yoga, or sound healing.

    Across all four major Hawaiian islands, meditation instruction is available in several formats: weekly group sits, one-on-one instruction, multi-day retreats, and immersive programs designed around the islands' natural environment. Kauaʻi in particular has a long-standing reputation as a destination for serious practitioners — several retreat centers there offer extended programs in silence and contemplative practice. Oʻahu and Maui have broad access to drop-in classes and shorter formats suited to visitors or those new to practice.

    When choosing a teacher, ask about their own training and lineage, how long they've been practicing, and whether their teaching style suits your experience level. Many teachers here offer a free or low-cost introductory session.

    Challenges such as depression, anxiety, addiction, or relationship difficulties, however painful, allow us to look more deeply at ourselves and find new solutions. There are times when we may need to feel extra support, and when an outside view helps us to gain clarity and insight. At other times, we may want a guide to help us dig deeper into past issues in order to understand and change the patterns and habits that keep us from living the kind of fulfilling lives we so desire. I believe that a safe, secure, and non-judgmental therapeutic presence inspires greater curiosity and compassion toward ourselves, so that we can begin to gain insight into our behaviors and make the kinds of changes that lead to greater happiness and more fulfilling relationships with ourselves and others. For more than fifteen years, I have been working with individuals, couples, and adolescents as a psychotherapist. Some of the skills that I bring to the therapeutic relationship are: a deep care and compassion for the struggles and difficulties that clients face, a great respect for each person's unique path, a keen interest in the workings of the psyche, and an unshakable belief in everyone's capacity for growth and wholeness. I believe that the disruptions and struggles we encounter can be true opportunities for making valuable changes in our lives. You may need short-term support to learn tools for specific situations. Or you may want to dig more deeply into the unconscious motivations that have shaped your patterns of relating. We will work together to accomplish the goals you choose. My training in clinical psychology has provided me with many effective tools. I also bring to this work a depth psychology perspective, which means that I am very interested and attuned to the unconscious, including dreams. When appropriate, I try to introduce mindfulness to clients. Mindfulness is a non-judgmental approach that allows one to have deeper awareness and compassion with difficult emotions as they arise.

Your monomyth journey begins here... treat your Mind-Body to a six-day, extraordinary journey of self-discovery and reconnecting with island nature: four bioregions, four quests. "...Return and dwell on green-backed Hawaii, A land discovered in the ocean, Risen up out of the waves, From the very depths of the sea, A piece of white coral left dry in the ocean..." —From the Paao and Pili-Kaaiea Legend Four journeys spanning six days take the journeyer through four distinct realms: ancient Hawaiian culture, cave, crater, forests, and natural pools. An eco-psychologically prescribed and guided path, each person is tasked with addressing core personality issues and dilemmas in the context of natural environments while utilizing natural forces and elements (earth, wind, fire, and water). The six-day, four-stage journey culminates in a celebration with a communally prepared feast of tropical fruits, fish, poi, and desserts. Music, dance, and storytelling complete the "hero's" journey.
