The Science of Enlightenment Online Course

If I had a nickel for every time a Brightminder said "I love Shinzen's book, The Science of Enlightenment", I'd be rich! And in a recent survey, the winning idea for what I work on next was an Online Course focused on the book. So let's do this!

If you don't already know, much of what I present in Brightmind is based on an approach to meditation developed by Shinzen Young. His book is the perfect addition to Brightmind, adding helpful background, inspiration, and entertaining stories. If you like Brightmind, you'll love The Science of Enlightenment.

Here are the basic components of the course:

๐Ÿ“– Meet once a week to discuss a chapter of the book (I'll summarize the material, we'll do breakouts, Q&A, some guided practice, too)

๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ 3 Ask Me Anythings with the one and only Shinzen Young 

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Total of 16 1-hour sessions

๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ Access to 3 daily group sits

๐Ÿ’ฌ Dedicated group chat for sharing reflections

๐Ÿท๏ธ $349 per person (comes out to $23 per session, so similar to a yoga class)

๐ŸŽ„ No class on the following Thursdays due to USA holidays: November 28th (Thanksgiving), December 26th (Christmas), January 2nd (New Years).

This online course offers a unique opportunity to gather weekly in a small group to learn and practice together. You'll no doubt come out of the experience with friendships based on shared values, and an accelerated meditation practice. I hope you'll join us!
