Meditation Courses - Insight and Mindfulness


The Insight and Mindfulness courses are a direct experiential training in mindfulness, awareness, and insight. The teachings provide the means for individuals to become active participants in their own healing and unfolding process.

Insight and Mindfulness meditation is the foundation for all courses on this site. The meditation instruction is integrated with various professional skills for the purpose of exploring and promoting contemplative awareness and compassionate action within our culture.There has been a constant presence of the teachings in Houston since 1984. Mary Rees has been teaching Insight Meditation since 1989, starting under the guidance of Rodney Smith who began teaching in Houston in 1984. more information about Mary Rees...
