Edward Duncan
Executive Director • InstructorI was introduced to mindfulness and meditation many years ago and it has cultivated the landscape to come to the realization and recognize the fact that who I essentially am has nothing to do with my thoughts, feelings, sensations, and perceptions. This practice has provided me with the tools to navigate and be present with the ever-changing, and at times, treacherous terrain called life. I wish as a young teenager growing up in the Bronx, I had these tools in my toolbox to allow me to be present with all of the internal discomfort and uneasiness associated with growing up.
