Rediscover The Buddha’s Original Breath Meditation

This revitalized approach to Anapanasati brings back a crucial step often overlooked in modern teachings: relaxation. Grounded directly in the Anapanasati Sutta and the Satipatthana Sutta, this method follows the Buddha’s original instructions—not later commentaries.

Led by David Johnson and based on Bhante Vimalaramsi’s TWIM teachings, this practice uses the 6R Process to gently recognize and release distractions and hindrances. Instead of forcing concentration, you develop a calm, open awareness that naturally leads to deeper states of tranquility and insight.

This is the path of the “Aware Jhanas”, meditative states rooted in mindfulness and ease—not absorption or suppression. You’ll find this approach joyful, accessible, and fully aligned with the early Buddhist texts.

Discover a natural, effective way to meditate—one that leads to real progress through the Jhanas, peace, and wisdom.
