We sit at the White House
to listen to our insides & outsides
Sundays 10am-12pm

~ This is not a protest. It's an invitation to rediscover the power of listening. ~

I first experimented with meditating at the White House for one hour every day for a month, October 19 - November 18, 2025.

I continue to learn from this experience and feel gratified that others have chosen to join this practice. This meditation is not about escaping the world. It’s about encountering the world - and observing how we respond to the world’s energies.

You are warmly invited to listen with us. If you join, here's what you can expect:

I will be sitting in Lafayette Park on the grass just a little north of Pennsylvania Avenue on Sundays 10am-12pm. Others may be there too. My own personal practice will be a one hour silent sit, roughly 10:30-11:30am. Before and after, I'm available to connect with you.

If you are new to meditation - or meditating in public for the first time - I'm happy to provide you with some orientation based on my experience. Likewise, I'd love to hear your reflections on your experience afterwards.

To sit comfortably, I suggest you bring a mat or blanket to put underneath you and something to elevate you such as a yoga block, some folded towels or anything else that works for you.

For the next several months, it will be cold, so make sure to dress warmly!

You do not need to sit for an hour like me. You can sit for any amount of time you wish and come and go as you please, but if you stay in the area, I'd love to connect with you before and/or after my own practice.

You do not need to come on Sunday mornings to join this practice.

You can come and sit on any day at any time that works for you. If you find the experience valuable, I encourage you to consider returning on a regular basis.

If you are practicing on a different day, I’d still love to connect with you, so please reach out!

The Musicality of Being workshop - another way to listen to insides & outsides

Every other Saturday in Washington DC's Rock Creek Park, I lead the Musicality of Being workshop which is another opportunity to develop your internal, environmental and relational awareness in a beautiful natural setting. The workshop includes a 2-mile hike, partner dialogue, somatic attunement, nature connection and meditation.

If you enjoy meditating at the White House, you may also enjoy this workshop.
