Mindfulness in the Wenatchee Valley

Connect to your inner landscape, learn to meet your needs and challenges skillfully, and grow!

Based in North Central Washington, Meditate Wenatchee is designed to help individuals, groups, businesses and communities find a greater sense of health and well-being. This is achieved via Mindfulness-Based education, experiential practices, and coaching.

Meditate Wenatchee is fueled by the passion of what it means for our lives when we work with the mind. Knowing and trusting our innate wholeness can be achieved by mindfulness practices that connect our body to the mind and our mind to heart & soul.  

When we are connected in wholeness we are in balance.  When we are in balance our life is experienced with greater ease, connection, joy and grace.

“GAME ON,” Justin shouted, “Let it run, Let it run!” He raced to the back of the boat, started the engine and while I held onto the rod for dear life, we pursued this aquatic beast.

He was in pursuit of helping his mom end her life as she wished and well let’s just say, nothing ever goes quite as planned.  Learn about the roadblocks and moving goalposts of helping a parent with terminal illness access Washington State’s “Death With Dignity Act.” Spoiler alert: there’s also some cussing, Willie Nelson and day-drinking in this one!
