WE DON"T HAVE TO REMIND YOU how toxic our lives can be. Stress at work, arguments with loved ones, poor diets, and too many hectic weekends conjure daydreams of Himalayan caves — guaranteed not to have cell phone reception. But in reality, even that retreat you’ve been planning for years feels like an impossible commitment.

Balancing a commitment to becoming more compassionate and wise with the responsibilities of a family, a career, and a checking account is a near-constant dilemna for many practitioners. To help, we’ve teamed up with one of the West’s foremost Buddhist teachers, Sharon Salzberg, to create an intensive meditation program designed for your busy schedule.

No steep retreat fees, no putting newspaper delivery on hold, no out-of-office replies required. Our 28-day "Commit to Sit" challenge puts that daydream of an intense daily practice to the test. More>>
