Invest in yourself. Unleash your full potential through Zen.

Rebecca Nie has taught meditation in the United States, Canada, and Bhutan, and she is the advisor of Stanford Zen Society and currently leads weekly meditation sessions at Stanford University. She also runs meditation workshops that introduce the basics of meditation, and guide participants through relaxation and investigation practices designed to expand their awareness. Ms. Nie's approach derives from the Continental Zen tradition, in which she is a Master, a member of the 80th generation since the Buddha to be so recognized. The premise of the approach is that developing our clear awareness of the mental, emotional, and physical state of ourselves and in relation to those around us helps us live fuller and more fulfilling lives.
