Indeed one can find plenty of information about meditation online. So much so that there is often conflict in meaning, leading to confusion about the practice, its origins, and the long-term goals of practice. Some people meditate because they are seeking peace. Some are seeking spiritual or religious connection. Why are you interested?

Come learn and open yourself to a modern interpretation of what meditation now means in 2022 and how it can really benefit you and the people around you.

You can get a head start on the sitting meditation techniques through our guide here: The Shaolin Seven Points Sitting Meditation Method
