Joel and Michelle Levey have devoted their lives to the exploration and integration of the world’s great wisdom traditions and contemplative inner sciences, and are early pioneers introducing mindfulness and contemplative practice into hundreds of mainstream medical, educational, business, sports, and government organizations since the 70s.

Over the past 50 years they have studied and practiced with many of the most revered teachers of our time, including the Dalai Lama, Krishnamurti, and Thich Nhat Hahn.

Nobel Peace Laureate the Dalai Lama, an advisor to the Leveys on numerous projects, once wrote to them: “You are presently engaged in work that has great prospects for bringing the Dharma (the inner sciences of human transformation) to a very wide section of people who may not under ordinary circumstances come into contact with these teachings. I am very pleased about the work that you are doing and send you blessings and prayers for your success.”  Joel & Michelle’s published works are available in 14 languages and include:  Living in Balance: A Mindful Guide for Thriving in a Complex World; Luminous Mind: Mindfulness, Meditation & Mind Fitness; and Wisdom at Work. Their new book – A Special Kind of Courage – is coming soon.  They live in Seattle, and also steward an organic permaculture farm, sanctuary, and learning center on the Big Island of Hawaii.
