The mind provides us with a vital energy that responds to every nuance of human experience. When we understand the nature of mind and appreciate its flexibility, we can shape the directionality of this energy, and respond more creatively to whatever life presents. Awareness of mind's hidden resources opens a gateway to lasting freedom and peace, our only true refuge in an often crowded and frustrating world.

HIDDEN MIND OF FREEDOM helps us awaken our inner resources through meditation and self-observation. Clear, intimate talks remove barriers to self-understanding and show us how to activate the healing qualities latent within the mind. Simple breathing techniques, mantra, and visualization exercises foster deep relaxation, promoting clarity and concentration. Insight flows more naturally, brightening our lives with meaning, and revealing ever broadening vistas of inner freedom.
