About
As a western yogi following the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, I have spent most of my life in Maryland, but have also studied and lived in India and Tibet while extensively traveling throughout the Himalayan areas, India, Nepal, and China. For over 27 years, I have been practicing meditation and pranayama techniques and teaching for over a decade. I have received guidance from more than 50 Tibetan lamas and other accomplished spiritual teachers, including the Dalai Lama.

Through over 150 meditation-related programs and retreats in various countries and a year-long solitary meditation retreat at the Pangan Gonpa monastery in the north Indian Himalayas, I have deepened my knowledge of these practices. I am also a registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance.

My students and clients come to me for various reasons, including physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. I teach the most profound techniques from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, and encourage those who feel a connection with Eastern spiritual traditions to engage with these practices.

Meditation and pranayama techniques are the gateway to inner and outer well-being. I am grateful for the teachings I have received and feel honored to pass them on to others. Visit my website to learn more about my programs and the seven-step approach to learning meditation. A free initial consultation is available upon request. Contact me through the website, email, or text to schedule your consultation today. I look forward to working with you soon.

Meeting Michael Hess through a remote Zoom video call due to the lockdown did not hinder the efficiency of the session where he introduced me to meditation and its fundamental components. His professionalism and approachable demeanor made the experience exceedingly pleasant. I endorse making an appointment with him, and I look forward to having additional sessions in the forthcoming.

Working with Michael Hess has been an exceptional experience. Thanks to him, I finally comprehend the reasoning behind practicing meditation. He provided me with a vast amount of knowledge related to the theory and scientific basis behind our meditation methods, prior to diving into the practicalities. This approach allowed me to grasp the concept in a more tangible and coherent manner, which has increased my level of engagement.

The instructor introduced simpler topics to enhance comprehension, welcomed inquiries, and demonstrated implementation. They promptly responded when I requested their assistance, surpassing my anticipations and motivating me to sustain a consistent practice.
