According to the non-dual wisdom traditions of Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta, the spiritual journey involves awakening from the dream of separation and realizing the peace, love, and joy of our essential spiritual nature, which is pure oneness. Only by awakening to our essential nature can we experience complete relief from suffering and dissatisfaction.

Through guided meditations, self-inquiry, talks, dialogues, and dyadic exercises, spiritual teacher Stephan Bodian will guide you toward experiencing this spiritual awakening in yourself. Once you've awakened to who you really are, your life will change in significant and powerful ways. You don’t have to exert tremendous effort or spend years on a meditation cushion to awaken—you just need to have the willingness to look deeply into your own heart and mind.

Stephan Bodian has been practicing and teaching the path of awakening for more than 30 years. He is a spiritual teacher, a licensed psychotherapist, bestselling author of Meditation for Dummies, and the former editor-in-chief of Yoga Journal.
