Our mission at Heart Mind Institute is to support our individual and collective efforts to become more deeply embodied, heart-centered, resilient and earth connected at this time when there is such a clear and critical need to heal and repair our relationship with the earth, our fellow species and each other.

 

We provide mindfulness-based and neuroscience-informed in-person and online courses, seminars, training, retreats and coaching programs, including Radical Responsibility® seminars, Mindful Leadership training, and a deeply embodied, trauma-informed approach to mindfulness meditation known as Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness (NSM)®.

Our mission at Engaged Mindfulness Institute is to offer rigorous, in-depth training to aspiring and active mindfulness teachers in trauma-informed approaches to sharing the practice of mindfulness and facilitating various mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) with individuals placed at risk, vulnerable populations and marginalized and underserved communities.

 

We were the first training organization accredited by the International Mindfulness Teachers Association (IMTA) and offer both 300-hour and 500-hour mindfulness teacher training and certification programs combining in-person retreats and training with rigorous online education. Our EMI faculty includes many of the most prominent mindfulness teachers and mindfulness-based clinicians and trauma experts in North America.
