‘Remember who you are.’

We all act to create, sustain, and bring to an end physical things, emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and relationships. We forget that we are a manifestation of Awareness.  And we remember. My journey is to remember in each moment.”

Intentions

Jay finds resonance in ancient practices and studies that help us connect with that ground of being that helps us remember. He loves to study, practice and share chanting in a group setting, and meditation in a non-dual tradition
