What about Meditation Events in New York City????

We don't have any public Banyan events scheduled in New York City at this time. We have been very engaged in our individual and institutional programs. But we will be having some events happening in May. Stay tuned. In the meantime Check this out...For 2008, we are continuing to offer one of our most popular services:

30 Day Inner Life Resolution Coaching Package

Resolutions- think of how many you've made over the years. Many Banyan friends and clients have shared their intentions to take up regular meditation or begin another regular practice to support their inner life.

We know from experience that it is so much easier to accomplish a goal when you have the right support.

With this goal in mind we've created a 30 Day Resolution Coaching Package. The coaching is done by Banyan Director David Harshada Wagner. He has years of experience helping people achieve their inner goals and uses a constant and gentle method to keep people on track with their goals.

The package includes:

Four 30 minute coaching sessions (one per week) with David via telephone

Throughout 2008, we're offering the package at the reduced price of $299.97

During your coaching sessions David will help you zero in on the right resolution for you and then help you step by step to make your resolution real. You'll be able to ask questions and seek advice any time you want via email and every week David will be there to keep bringing you back on track.This is a great option for people who are looking to make good changes in their inner life.
