Joan is a lifelong explorer and writer who is deeply committed to understanding the true nature of reality. With a background in Buddhism, Advaita, and various forms of meditative inquiry, Joan has developed a unique and multi-faceted perspective on spirituality. She has also explored other areas such as martial arts, somatic work, addiction recovery, political activism, and the visual arts, and is devoted to both boundless presence and the beauty of the ordinary. Since 1996, Joan has been holding public and private meetings, as well as occasional workshops and retreats, where she encourages people to question the stories, beliefs, and misunderstandings that cause so much suffering and to seek direct, firsthand, present experience rather than relying on outside authorities, traditional ideas, acquired knowledge, or beliefs. Joan's approach is open, direct, and down-to-earth, rooted in the ever-fresh aliveness of presence-awareness.
