Personal change can come from one or two small, even casual suggestions taken to heart and sustained over time.
The Resonant Life course offers a rich garden of suggestions sourced from nothing less than the deeply considered wisdom of humanity throughout history. Come enjoy this garden, and take home something wonderful that appeals to you! Then practice bringing this with you – to your work, to school, to dinner – and see how life might begin to feel different. 
INSTRUCTOR
Werner John is a lifelong meditator and musician. As a flute maker, he knows that resonance is the inner gold that makes an instrument sing. And so it is with people. Knowing oneself deeply and resonating from there gives life its most precious meaning and joy. |
MINDFULNESS
Mindful awareness is basic to life. Here, we practice techniques from the peaceful Thich Nhat Hanh tradition. Such mindfulness is gentle and safe for anyone. Although instruction is for beginners, those who already benefit from a mindfulness practice often find meditating with others equally enriching. With the diverse styles of meditation, an experienced instructor, and some live music, the course should be helpful and enjoyable for all. CHARACTER STRENGTHS
Exploration of personal character in The Resonant Life is based on the world-class research program of the VIA Institute on Character. Each participant will start with the online VIA survey to determine their personal strengths profile. From here, we work with how 24 simple human attributes, representing our best qualities, can lead to more self-understanding and effectiveness. VIA's research continues to show how developing each and every strength can enhance an individual's life experience. |

The Zoom sessions will begin on Tuesday, September 15
and continue Tuesday evenings through October: Sept. 15, 7:00-9:15 PM Sept. 22, 7:00-8:45 PM Sept. 29, 7:00-8:45 PM Oct. 6, 7:00-8:45 PM Oct. 13, 7:00-8:45 PM Oct. 20, 7:00-8:45 PM Oct. 27, 7:00-8:45 PM (Nov. 3 or other evening, 7:00-8:45 PM if needed) Participants are asked to attend all sessions if possible. Each class will be recorded in case of an unforeseen absence. Registration is limited to around 12, so your presence will be valuable! To get the most from this experience please be prepared to spend some time between sessions in short meditations and working with the materials. If you latch onto just a few favorite elements the rewards over time can become powerfully evident. The ideas and practices here have been tested throughout history and their benefits are now being overwhelmingly confirmed by science. To support your experience, then, it would be good to have these things in place: your motivating interest in self-development; some time for study, meditation and thinking; a commitment to attend each class session; and a solid Zoom connection. Plus have one raisin on hand for the first class– you'll see why. To register for The Resonant Life workshop beginning September 15, 2026, place a $50 deposit or purchase the course below. If you have questions, please contact me, Werner John, via email (preferred), text or phone (802) 272-5397. A spot in the course is $240. This fee is good for one, two, or three participants. If finances are tight, consider inviting a friend or family member or two to sign up with you. To your best life! 
P.S. No prior meditation experience is needed. Curiosity is enough.
