TWIM—Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation

A path from dissatisfaction to awakening wisdom.

Whether you are new to meditation or have practiced for years, TWIM offers a different approach to developing a calm, clear, and liberated mind.

Based on the original teachings of the Buddha preserved in the early Buddhist suttas, TWIM combines loving-kindness (metta), with Right Effort to help you recognize and release habitual patterns of anxiety, craveing, and distraction.

Rather than forcing concentration or suppressing thoughts and emotions, TWIM teaches a relaxed, smiling approach that gently returns the mind to a bright and alert, heart-centered awareness. With practice, the mind becomes naturally mindful, joyful, tranquil, and collected, opening the way to jhanas, natural samadhi, insights, Nirvana, and awakened wisdom.

A Different Approach to Meditation

Have you been meditating but still feel incomplete or that something is missing?

If your meditation practice has brought periods of calm or concentration but has not produced lasting results, TWIM offers another way.

TWIM is not therapy but a practice to decondition habitual reactions rather than simply ignoring or surpressing them. As craving and attachments are released, the mind become increasingly clear, joyful, and balanced—both on the cushion and in active lifestyles.
