We need only invoke the power of mindful awareness in any action of body, speech or mind to elevate that action from the unconscious reflex of a trained creature to the awakened choice of a human being who is guided to a higher life by wisdom. Andrew Olendzki Citta 101 offers educational programs in Insight and Mindfulness Meditation based on the rich east/west dialogue between Buddhist science of mind and western cognitive sciences and psychotherapeutic schools. Citta 101 is dedicated to creating opportunities for deepening the understanding of mind and for developing greater awareness of our capacity for eliminating suffering and its causes. The primary program goals are to foster committed and skillful meditation practice, to further the east/west dialogue, and to help implement the skills of mindfulness and insight in as many aspects of our culture as possible, with as many people as possible. Courses offered include meditation skills from introductory to advanced levels and for training in integrating concomitant personal and professional skills in daily life.  Meditation Teacher Dharma Leader Spiritual Director Diagnostic Teacher Mary Rees, MS, founder of Citta 101, has been integrating Buddhist practice into western settings in both professional and spiritual venues since 1985. Current courses offered have grown directly from her long-term meditation practice, 19 years teaching meditation, and 20 years of professional experience as a Specialist in Specific Learning Disabilities. She worked in public schools in Iowa and Texas teaching learning strategies, assessing academic skills, intellectual ability, and learning styles, as well as consulting with parents and professionals to help students become successful and happy. Mary founded Citta 101 to promote contemplative awareness and compassionate behavior within our culture through the teachings of Insight and Mindfulness Meditation. She is a Meditation Teacher and Spiritual Director, a graduate of the Community Dharma Leader Training program at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California.
