Clark’s mindfulness journey and teaching…
I have been practicing meditation for over 30 years. What began as a curiosity in my childhood as a student of martial arts, expanded into a passion as I grew into an adult. I have always been interested in the taoist idea of balance as the guiding principle in life.
I studied massage at the Oregon school of massage, Traditional Chinese medicine at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, Five element style acupuncture with Lonny Jarrett, Vendanta with Amritanandamayi, Zen buddhism with Adyashanti, and Qi gong with masters Liu He, and Huixian Chen. I have also studied the esoteric teachings of Christian, Jewish and Sufi mystics.
I have been amazed to experience how each of these seemingly different paths all teach a very similar ideal of cultivating presence as the most effective way of coming to know the divine.
I weave together my knowledge of different spiritual paths with a fascination for science, and personal experience. I have been teaching Qi gong and meditation for over 15 years.
