Mindfulness Training
Expert-Led Meditation for
Stress Reduction and Well-Being
with Mark Van Buren
The Meditation Starter Kit Workshop - The ARK Module
Want to get started learning my most powerful approach to understanding and demystifying the practice of meditation? Well, you’re one click away from learning the most powerful teaching that I offer to ALL of my private clients. And did I mention? I’m giving this away FOR FREE!
This workshop introduces ARK, an acronym I created from my years of experience as a seasoned meditator, Buddhist author, and mindful living trainer. It will help you understand WHAT you are trying to to do when you sit down in meditation, along with explaining the qualities of mind you are cultivating. More importantly, it will show you HOW to meditate both on the cushion (or chair) and off.
Find a new, authentic and practical way to be in this world and give yourself purpose, meaning, and direction without having to drink the kool-aide!

Praise for Your Life IS Meditation
“With his unique combination of clarity, humility, humor, and insight,
Mark has written a perfect book with which to start a meditation practice,
or if you're a longtime meditator a perfect book to help dissolve
that imaginary boundary between 'practice time' and the rest of your life.
You can feel Mark’s experiential wisdom coming through each page
and into your own practice— or, rather, your entire life. I really love this book!”
—Jaimal Yogis, author of Saltwater Buddha and All Our Waves Are Water
“Through personal and funny stories Mark makes accessible the path
to beginning to integrate meditation into a way of wellbeing in our daily life.”
—Koshin Paley Ellison, author of Wholehearted: Slow Down, Help Out, Wake Up
“Friendly, simple, and wise words for those
who would like to bring a little light and kindness into their daily lives.”
—Ben Connely, Soto Zen priest, secular mindfulness teacher and author of Mindfulness and Intimacy

Praise for A Fool's Guide to Actual Happiness
“This dude really gets it! The Buddha
believed in happiness for everyone,
and Van Buren gets you there in this concise
and simple book that’s just loaded with wisdom.”
—Gerry Stribling, author of Buddhism for Dudes
"Every page of A Fool's Guide to Actual Happiness
is a blissful relief from the self-help hamster wheel
of fantasies and imagined future selves.
A perfect book for starting out your meditation practice.”
—Jaimal Yogis, author of Saltwater Buddha
“For anyone who wants to explore Buddhist meditation,
this book opens the door. Mark makes the practice
accessible, clear, and easy to incorporate in the rest of your life.”
—Lodro Rinzler, author of The Buddha Walks into a Bar
"The Buddha exhorted his disciples to ‘strive with determination’
and to ‘look on with equanimity’ – two complementary modes of
working with the mind. Many people today have a bias towards ‘striving’
with little real equanimity. Mark Van Buren’s warm and clearly-written
book offers an antidote to the trap of inappropriate effort,
providing a guide to a more balanced approach
to following the Buddha’s teachings."
—Paramabandhu Groves, author of Eight Step Recovery:
Using the Buddha's Teachings to Overcome Addiction
