Our speaker Jeff Warren wants to help normalize and democratize the sharing of meditation practice. He believes everyone should have a basic understanding of the role of practice in life and the dynamics of self-regulation, just as everyone should have a rudimentary understanding of the value of a healthy diet and physical exercise. In this presentation, we’ll explore what one version of a decentralized hierarchy-free community practice could look like, and what amateurs need to know to share and guide meditation practices safely and effectively.
