Mission
I vow to translate the ancient wisdom teachings of Zen into contemporary tools that are available globally and secularly, in order to create a culture of compassion and collaboration. Together we can build a monastery without walls.
Remington Cooney (M.Ed)
Mindfulness Coach | Meditation Teacher
I have been a student of meditation for over half my life. I began experiencing the healing benefits that arises from a stillness practice in my mid-teens, in the midst of struggling with an anxious, ruminating mind and a pernicious shame-based inner critic.
From that point on, I've been committed to continuing the practice, as well as sharing with others the gifts that arise from sitting still.
My hope is that by teaching mindfulness meditation, it can help ground, nourish, expand and un-shame others in the same way that it has done so for me.
​
My primary meditation teacher and mentor is Jogen Adam Salzberg from the White Plum Asanga Lineage of Zen Buddhism. My root teacher was the late Buddhist teacher Shoken Michael Stone, from whom I received certification to teach.
​
I have over 10,000 hours of meditation training and study, including 3 months of immersive monastic study at Great Vow Zen Monastery.
