Transform Conflict into Opportunity
You aspire to make a positive difference in the world, and to be a peacemaker in this time of increasing tension.
But sometimes our own pain or personal struggles can hijack our best efforts to powerfully and effectively deal with conflict in our own lives and in the larger world.
In this course, you will learn from two masters how to blend the inner arts of MEDITATION with the outer arts of MEDIATION so that you can stand in a place of grounded presence and apply skillful methods to transform conflicts.
The Meditate & Mediate Essentials mini-course contains seven short video modules to teach key concepts and spark new ideas, plus three powerful meditation experiences. The tools and exercises they reveal will give you new access to creative solutions.

What Students are Saying about Meditate & Mediate
“A part of me expands with light and joy as I imagine a world where we commit to authentic transparent relating. Meditate & Mediate is not only an online teaching and transmission but a platform on which a new way of relating can flourish. It has fundamentally changed the way I relate to others through deeper listening, higher attunement capacity and increased subtle awareness competencies.”
– Scott L., Healer and process facilitator, Scotland
“The Meditate & Mediate course opened my eyes to the role that trauma plays in all types of conflict, the role that we as mediators have in calling on the collective ‘third side,’ and how our nervous systems are a part of an evolution from the beginning of time. Each one of these areas was elegantly unpacked and examined in meaningful and impactful way through the course.”
– Steve S., Mediator/Collaborative Attorney, Maryland, US
“The course was exceptional. Spiritual, practical and humanizing, it helped create and validate a ‘ground of being’ from which I could stand on with full confidence in my work on the contemporary issues of our day, from race relations to veterans issues.”
– Kate A., Theatre Director, USA
“The course brought me precious insight into conflict resolution, helping me overcome personal situations with a deep sense of respect and dignity. This course has been a daily source of inspiration and growth.”
– Begoña S., Brussels, Belgium
