What is Maitri?
Maitri is the path of developing an unconditional friendliness toward every part of our sweet selves—so that we can be fully available to ourself, our life, our loved ones, and this world.
Maitri is about more than self-care. It's about more than spa days and epsom salts.
It’s about becoming strong, grounded, confident, resilient, relaxed, with a light touch. It's about becoming ourselves.
It’s not about Self-Help—it's not about getting “better”—it's about recognizing the sweet heart that's always been here.
Right here.
"I feel like the world needs this teaching."
This course is perfect for anyone going through heartbreak. Honestly, this couldn’t have come at a better time. I found myself nodding along and just feeling so much compassion for myself as I was listening to Waylon and Sharon Salzberg speak. I feel like the world needs this teaching. I can think of so many people who I know would benefit from this. And, I found myself already feeling lighter about my approach to life.

"I was so immersed I finished it in four days."
The timing of the Maitri self-paced course is a welcome hot cup of coffee or tea with a small wedge of dark chocolate on a stormy day. I dove into this course with both feet, an open heart and an equally open mind. I was so immersed I finished it in four days. But, here is the joy, it is yours, take your time, let days or weeks pass before moving to the next lesson, or take it all in and know you can go back to read, watch, explore.
