Details about this class

Hello! I'm William Douglass,

Thank you for your interest in learning meditation. I have extensive experience. I am a meditation and Tai Chi teacher, with forty seven years experience as a meditator and twenty eight years practicing Tai Chi. During my twenty year tenure at PCC I have successfully taught thousands of students. I ran my own private practice for ten years in Sellwood as a councilor and clinical hypnotherapist focusing on family trauma. I am a Reiki master and energy healer versed in multiple modalities. I bring my decades of experience with a unique skillset well suited for the subjects I teach. My meditation class has a unique focus. The mechanics of intention and manifestation development are the primary focal points, geared towards increasing the power and efficiency of the intention/manifestation cycle. From my years of meditation experience, I have distilled the important things that I have found productive for a successful meditation practice. In this class you will learn how to develop your inner vision and to strengthen a powerful positive outlook. To think is to create, so many topics will be devoted to cutting edge, scientific theories and processes to support and aid in this.

This is a hybrid course which meets via Google Meet twice a week for fifty minutes and includes a live guided meditation, online lectures and related activities. The class is cross-listed with Meditation I 184M, Tai Chi I 182S and Tai Chi II 182G so you will have the Tai Chi class materials as an optional benefit. The live Google Meets are split between half for Tai Chi and half for meditation. Tai Chi is presented for the first part and meditation after. It is optional to attend the live Meets. The lecture demos are recorded so you can access them online anytime to fit your schedule. I post the recordings once they are available on Google Drive. There is no textbook for this course. All reading and other materials will be provided through D2L Brightspace. Final grades will be determined by your attendance and participation, a four question weekly quiz and a one page post reflection paper that is due at the end of the term. Email me with questions at william.douglass15@pcc.edu.

Namaste'
