Our Teachers
The mission of our teachers is to meet you where you are and help you establish a meditation practice that works for you and your lifestyle. As your practice grows, we’ll grow with you.
We know that meditation can be intimidating. What if you are not doing it right? What if you fall asleep? What other meditators are “in the know” and you aren’t?
Our teachers are familiar with these concerns – we’ve had them ourselves! In our first meeting we get to know you. Your goals. Your challenges. Together, we develop a practice plan that works for YOU. We keep things simple and fun, so that you look forward to your practice and your instructional time.
Our teachers are highly skilled, meditate regularly, and share insights and struggles from their own practice sessions.
Every teacher has completed an extensive meditation teacher certification program and participates in regular ongoing education & workshops. The first question in any teacher meeting, phone call or text is “How’s your practice?”

Melissa Mattern
Owner | Meditation Teacher
I’m a regular person who meditates every day.
As a meditation teacher, I’ll meet you where you are in life and together we’ll develop a meditation practice that works for you.
Comfort and sustainability are key, and my style is using real life examples of how to bring more chill into your life through meditation and just taking a few minutes to think before you act.
I believe that happiness and mindfulness can be easy to learn and even easier to maintain when you keep it real.

Jeff Gamer
Owner | Meditation Teacher
I bring compassion, science, athletic performance, and humor to meditation. I find happiness any time I am in motion…preferably outside. I’m a math geek and engineer and thinking outside the box is where I like to be.
I explore mindfulness and meditation with a curious mind and an open heart, while keeping things authentic and approachable. I bring Ninja-like competitive edge to sports meditation and as a former NCAA Tennis Champion, I understand and apply the “winning mind” of an athlete to my work.
