Tara Brach, Ph.D., has been practicing meditation since 1975 and leads Buddhist meditation retreats at centers throughout North America. She is also a clinical psychologist. Brach spent ten years living in an ashram where she practiced and taught kundalini yoga and concentrative (breath and mantra) meditations. After being introduced to Buddhist meditation, she attended a number of silent vipassana retreats led by Joseph Goldstein and other senior teachers. She went on to participate in a five-year Buddhist teacher training program under the guidance of Jack Kornfield at Spirit Rock Meditation Center. Subsequently, she received training in Dzogchen from Tsoknyi Rinpoche and has incorporated elements of Mahayana and Tibetan Buddhism into her daily practice and teaching.
Tara founded the Insight Meditation Community of Washington (IMCW) in 1998 and serves as its senior teacher. Along with a growing number of dedicated community leaders, Tara has guided IMCW in becoming one of the largest and most active Buddhist centers on the East Coast. In addition to teaching Buddhist meditation classes and retreats, Tara travels widely — giving talks at conferences, as well as leading workshops and teaching courses. She often draws on her psychological training as well as Buddhist teachings and practices to help participants address difficult emotions and harmful behaviors.
Tara has written numerous articles, and recorded hundreds of talks that are available through IMCW, Dharma Seed Tape Library, and Sounds True. Her podcast receives over a million downloads each month. An engaged Buddhist, her themes often address the suffering of our world and the compelling need to respond to violence, ecological problems, and racial injustice by practicing compassion in action. In this spirit, Tara helped found the Washington Buddhist Peace Fellowship in 2002.
She has a son, Narayan, and lives in Great Falls, VA, with her husband, Jonathan Foust, and their dog, kd.

Sharon Salzberg first encountered Buddhism in a course on Asian philosophy at the State University of New York. In 1970, her interest in the subject took her to India. She attended her first Buddhist meditation retreat in Bodh Gaya, the site of the Buddha's enlightenment. For the next three and one-half years, Salzberg studied with teachers from India, Burma, and Tibet. She returned to America and began giving reteats. In 1976, Salzberg established with Joseph Goldstein and Jack Kornfield the Insight Meditation Society, which now ranks as one of the most prominent and active meditation centers in the Western world. Salzberg and Goldstein expanded their vision in 1989 by co-founding the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies (BCBS). In 1998, they initiated the Forest Refuge, a long-term retreat center secluded in a wooded area on IMS property. She now divides her time between homes in New York City and Barre, Massachusetts.
Salzberg has also emerged as a featured speaker and teacher at a wide variety of events. She served as a panelist with the Dalai Lama and leading scientists at the 2005 Mind and Life Investigating the Mind Conference in Washington, DC. She was a keynote speaker at the 2005 Sacred Circles Conference at the Washington National Cathedral. She has addressed audiences at the State of the World Forum, the Peacemakers Conference, as well as many Buddhist conferences. She was selected to attend the Gethsemani encounter, a dialogue on spiritual life between Buddhist and Christian leaders that included His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Salzberg is a a contributing editor of Oprah’s O Magazine, and has appeared in Time Magazine, Yoga Journal, msnbc.com, Tricycle, Real Simple, Body & Soul, Mirabella, Good Housekeeping, Self, Buddhadharma, More and Shambhala Sun, as well as on a variety of radio programs. Her writing appears in anthologies as well as in her own books.
For most of her life, this accomplished and well-known Buddhist teacher has been unfolding the riches of meditation, which she characterizes as "the art of knowing how to begin again." Salzberg also describes it as a tool that enables us to see more clearly, to cherish the interconnectedness of all beings, and to incline the mind toward lovingkindness. She affirms equanimity and generosity as the keys to developing a compassionate heart. In one of her books, Salzberg encourages us to re-imagine faith not as a belief or a commodity but as "an inner quality that unfolds as we learn to trust our deepest experience."

Jack Kornfield was trained as a Buddhist monk in Thailand, Burma and India and has taught meditation worldwide since 1974.
After graduating from Dartmouth College in 1967, he joined the Peace Corps and was assigned to the Public Health Service in northeast Thailand, which is home to several of the world's oldest Buddhist forest monasteries. Here he met the Buddhist master Achaan Chah, who became Kornfield's teacher for many years. Upon returning to the United States in 1972, Kornfield co-founded the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts, with fellow meditation teachers Sharon Salzberg and Joseph Goldstein.
Kornfield has become one of the key teachers to introduce Therevada Buddhist practice to the West. For many years his work has focused on intergrating and bringing alive the great Eastern spiritual teachings in an accessible way for Western students and Western society. His books, audio tapes and teachings have acted as an inspiration for countless Western students of Buddhism. Jack Kornfield holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology. He is also a founding teacher of the Spirit Rock Center in Woodacre, California, where he currently lives and teaches.
