Regular meditation forms the foundation of a strong spiritual practice. To support meditation and study of the Dharma, we’re gradually creating bespoke meditations and other resources, based on inspiration from our founding teachers, associate teachers, and sangha.
Some meditations were recorded as part of our online courses and others created specifically to be a free resource here.

Guided Meditations
Maureen Smith
For over 20 years Maureen has been studying meditation and mindfulness with awakening masters Qapel and Catherine Sensei.
As Clear Sky’s longest Resident (living here since 2005), Maureen’s life purpose is exploring consciousness and gaining wisdom into human nature in order to support people to grow into fully developed human beings.
Originally from New Zealand, Michelle met our Founding Teachers, Doug and Catherine Sensei, while living in Japan. Shortly after that, Michelle relocated to Canada to become one of Clear Sky’s Founding members.
Michelle thoughtfully brings a sense of playfulness, calm and lovingkindness to her teachings and meditations. Living and teaching in Nelson, B.C., find out more about her classes here.
