Meditation Guide
Nathaniel Heidler
I’m passionate about helping anyone who is curious to discover what’s possible through meditation, especially those just beginning their journey. My hope is that every seeker can experience the peace and tranquility that naturally arise from practicing the Buddha’s teachings. As the Buddha said, “Come and See” – inviting people to put his teachings into action and see the results for themselves. You would be amazed at what’s possible!
In early 2014, I came across the Dhamma Sukha mediation center on YouTube, and drove to the monastery south of St. Louis that summer to take my first formal mediation retreat. That first retreat revealed to me that there was something to all of this, and that I should keep studying and meditating. In 2015 I took my first 10 day retreat with Doug Kraft. The experiences on that first 10 day retreat created an intense desire to study the original teachings of the Buddha and to continue to develop my own understanding and meditation practice. I’ve since taken many 10 day retreats and consider the Buddha’s teachings an integral part of my life.
During the day, I’m a cloud engineer for a Silicon Valley software company, and bring decades of consulting experience to guiding meditators.
