Tara and Jack have a wealth of experience between them. They bring their own bounty of wisdom, humour, kindness and compassion to 40 invaluable learning experiences. I gained new knowledge from every one of these meditations. Thank you Tara and Jack for your generosity. You make the world a better place.

From connecting to myself through breathing and awareness, to setting personal goals and connecting with others, this course helped me establish a practice that’s more focused and practical.

I just finished this 40 day mindfulness teaching. It is gently and consistently powerful in shaping my ability to be present with whatever is. I’m beyond grateful for the gift of these 40 sessions. I plan to return to these again and again. I’d like to extend a huge thank you and grateful heart hug to Jack and Tarah for this offering. Even though the pandemic is long past now, this wisdom is relevant for all times and circumstances.
