Hey friends!
I’m on the road. Thursday night I taught at New York Insight – rushing in from the airport, navigating the grid, giddy with Manhattan’s infectious and highly non-meditative energy. Eleven floors up, 70 people meditating in the hum. “If you can meditate here, you can meditate anywhere” to paraphrase the famous New York slogan. Then I headed upstate to teach a weekend retreat at Omega.
In the city I stayed with my great friend Sebene Selassie in Brooklyn. On Friday morning, after drinking our Matcha tea, I guided her and her adorable puppy ChaCha in a short practice. Afterwards we chatted about how, in meditation, we go in to go out. That short conversation happens at the end of the guided audio above - enjoy!
Much love,
Jeff.
A few quick notes—
New to Home Base? We have over 70 free guided meditations in our audio library, over 60 extended meditations, over 365 meditations on YouTube, and a growing number of community practice videos. New writing, new audio meditations, and new DNP live community practice sessions happen every week.
Did you find me on Calm or Happier? While the meditations I recorded for the apps live on in perpetuity, I no longer record new meditations for them. My latest work happens here; becoming a paid subscriber is the best way to support that work. I give paid scholarships to anyone who asks (email info@jeffwarren.org). If you found this meditation and post helpful, but becoming a paid subscriber isn’t an option, you can also …
Many thanks!
CEC Summer Retreat: Meditate! Celebrate! Activate!
August 29-September 1, 2025
Five Oaks Education & Retreat Centre, Ontario, Canada - (Online too)
The Consciousness Explorers Club’s legendary summer retreat is back! We sit in MEDITATION through the day, a mix of solo and guided excursions into sound, energy, openness, silence and gratitude … thus opening a space for our afternoon ACTIVATION sessions, where we play with our insights live, in community. What emerges naturally when there’s trust and relaxation and the right proportion of irreverence: CELEBRATION! Campfire hangouts and sound-baths and a fun dance party on the final night. Basically we have a good time. What else is meditation for if it can’t deliver on that?
Come join Tasha Schumann , Erin Oke, James Maskalyk MD, and others from the CEC Teaching Team, including Jeff, who will guide a session virtually, as he drives across the country en route to Vancouver.
NOTE: if you cannot attend in-person, consider attending online - see below.
