Past Presenters and AMS Community

Over the previous five years of A Mindful Society we've come to connect meaningfully with a vibrant community and its bevy of stimulating presenters! In meandering order: Dan Siegel, Judson Brewer, Brother Phap Hai, Maria Gonzalez, Thupten Jinpa, Shari Geller, Shauna Shapiro, Chris Willard, Zindel Segal, Marc Lesser, James R. Doty, Theo Koffler, Dzung Vo, Pat Rockman and Evan Collins, Linda Carlson, Theo Koffler, Amber McAuley, Sara Marlowe, Debbie Danbrook, Mare Chapman, Valerie Brown, Shelley Murphy, and David Treleaven, with Cheryl Fraser, Barry Boyce and Bill Gayner returning this year.

We also love to focus on local authors who've yet to present at AMS: the latest connection being with Gary Petingola, whose new book is The Response: Practicing Mindfulness in Your Daily Life; and with mentions to children's book authors Lorena Dolinar (Mikey Discovers his Super-Power) and Tamara Levitt (Happiness Doesn't Come From Headstands, and The Secret to Clara's Calm).
