We're Filming David Lynch!

We've just received confirmation from filmmaker David Lynch that he will be the next subject of ON MEDITATION!

David Lynch is not only the acclaimed director of such films as BLUE VELVET and MULHOLLAND DRIVE, he also a longtime practitioner of Transcendental Meditation. He is the author of CATCHING THE BIG FISH, in which he describes how meditation has influenced his working style as a filmmaker and artist, and the founder of the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace, which funds implementation of stress-reduction programs for underserved populations and supports medical research on the benefits of Transcendental Meditation for health, education, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

We are beyond thrilled that he has agreed to be filmed for our series. We plan to shoot in late April, and we'll keep you posted on our progress!

Welcome.  If you're reading this you are one of the first visitors to our freshly launched ON MEDITATION site.

So, thank you so much for being here.   Like a lot of documentary projects, this one has already been in the making for awhile and we're only just getting started.   But launching the site and our Kickstarter campaign -- which will follow momentarily -- is a big milestone and big moment for us.  We have so much gratitude to all our friends and collaborators who have helped us get to this point.

Meditation and taxi cabs might seem like an odd coupling, but thanks to New York City’s Taxi and Limousine Commission and a generous gift from lululemon, an ON MEDITATION promo will be screened in the backseats of yellow cabs!

Let us know if you see the promo in a taxi. And, better yet, send us a photo from your smartphone if you do!

Congressman Tim Ryan Inspires Us

We’ve just put the finishing touches on editing our portrait of Congressman Tim Ryan, the fifth in our series.

Rep. Ryan is a truly inspirational public figure. A six term Congressman from Ohio, he serves as a member of the powerful House Appropriations Committee and is the author of A Mindful Nation: How a Simple Practice Can Help Us Reduce Stress, Improve Performance, and Recapture the American Spirit. He is not only very personally committed to meditation -- practicing mindfulness meditation on a daily basis – he’s also pushing for policies that would incorporate meditation training into the health care system and military preparedness. How cool is that?​
