Bio:

Lisa Klein’s journey into meditation and mindfulness began 30 years ago. She discovered meditation as an introverted, anxiety-ridden undergraduate, who quickly realized its physical and mental health benefits. Through meditation, she was able to cope with her anxiety and learned how to develop her voice. During her 20+ year career as a high school English teacher, department chair, and university instructor, she witnessed first-hand the high levels of stress and teacher burnout of her colleagues as well as the growing number of students who suffer from stress and anxiety.

In 2008, she completed her doctorate focusing her research on the effects of meditation on teachers. Her research indicates that meditation both helps teachers to deal with the stress of teaching, while also fostering their self-actualizing qualities leading to greater creativity and positivity in the classroom.

As a certified meditation teacher, Dr. Klein has been teaching meditation privately and conducting workshops since 2003. In addition to being a teacher of Vedic meditation, she is also certified to teach mindfulness meditation through the Mindfulness Association of the UK.

Now, more than ever, people are searching for ways to feel calmer, to be more present, and to have greater clarity. She is excited to share with others how meditation and mindfulness can be tools that help one to be more centered, more compassionate, less reactive, and healthier.
