Coaching

“Shawn is an incredibly astute, attention to detail meditation coach. Not only has his diligence on the cushion given him the clarity of perception to pick apart micro-phenomenological details in his experience and others’; but his time in academia studying philosophy, cognitive science and predictive processing has also given him the intellectual frameworks with which to understand a grander vision of the mind and the project of meditation. This makes him quite a unique figure in that he is both an accomplished meditator (having gone significant distance along the enlightenment path), whilst also being directly connected to cutting edge researchers of cognitive science.

I see Shawn able to give great technical and practical advice to other meditators, leaving them with a framework and mapping that helps them make sense of their experience and where they are at, and instructions for how to proceed in their practice. Normally, you either get someone who knows the theory well, or someone who doesn’t know the theory but has experiential insight into deeper facets of consciousness. With Shawn, you get both.” – Roger

“I can say without exaggerating that Roger has a masterful understanding of insight meditation and the awakening process. Having traversed the full length of the traditional Theravadan four paths he’s got intimate knowledge of the terrain. When you combine his skill at describing that terrain with the conceptual clarity he’s honed over both an undergrad in philosophy and a current master’s degree, you get someone who can deliver truly valuable guidance regardless of where you’re at.

Roger also cares in a real way about the suffering of others. He’s got the ethical grounding to ensure that he can help you work through challenging moments and material with real compassion and respect. Finally, he’s both holistic and scientific in his approach to coaching and life. Rest assured, you won’t be getting one sided, cryptic or myopic advice here. With Roger you’ll be tapping into the experiential knowledge of an exceptional meditation coach who won’t lead you astray.” – Shawn

“Teodora has proven to be an exceptionally gifted meditator and communicator of subtle phenomenology, perspectives and techniques, all mind related. Having dedicated serious time and effort to her own practice, she has demonstrated how talented she is at navigating the meditative path. Teodora has not only developed so much insight, so quickly on her own journey, but she is also able to enthusiastically and compassionately encourage others along with her. I see her making sure everyone is comfortable and engaged when leading other meditators in our group sessions. As well, she attentively relates to their queries while offering practical advice. Teodora has a down-to-earth, empirical, practical and joyous mindset, making her easily relatable, trustworthy and an excellent coach for anyone who seeks guidance from her.” – Roger
