I am the creator of MediSounds® Meditation, and the founder of The Great Octave Foundation, a not-for-profit organization devoted to advancing the use of MediSounds sound-based meditation to groups, communities, and other philanthropic organizations worldwide.
I teach a powerful and extremely accessible meditation system called MediSounds based on ancient wisdom texts from the 13th century. Since leaving investment banking 30 years ago I have travelled the world as a teacher, lecturer, and radio show guest.
Unlike other meditation techniques, MediSounds does not require effort to “empty one’s mind” or extensive training. It uses the power of one's own voice to produce a meditative state of deep calm and connection, as well as freedom from stress and anxiety; something especially important in these uncertain times.
I have taught MediSounds Meditation and vocal sound-based mindfulness practices worldwide, in places as diverse as Esalen and Omega Institutes, Tibet House in NYC, meditation workshops in Andalusia Spain and Oxford England, and the Sri Auribindo Auroville community in India.
Currently I am conducting a series of free “Immersive Sound Baths” sponsored by the not-for-profit Great Octave Foundation. The next Sound Baths are on February 20th in Soho and at Unison Learning Center in the Hudson Valley on March 7th. The Sound Baths will be held on a monthly basis and future dates will be announced soon.
