Meditation is recognized by both contemporary science and spiritual practitioners as a powerful training of attention that can heal physical and emotional suffering and awaken our full potential as human beings.
To meet the steady increase in popular interest in meditation, there is a growing need for mature, dedicated teachers who can offer these practices with clarity and wisdom.
MTTI offers qualified people in the greater Washington DC region a two-year certification program in teaching meditations that cultivate mindfulness and compassion.
Drawn largely from the Buddhist tradition but applicable in most secular and religious domains, this program will enable graduates to introduce meditation in a wide array of settings and to a variety of different populations.
