Transforming Lives Through

Meditation

Igniting creative change from the inside out

The 3 Doors offers contemplative meditation practices rooted in Tibetan Buddhism. Our online and in-person programs support personal reflection and transformation in the safe space of inclusive community. Together we discover the capacity to be fully present to our own lives and the lives of others and to meet the challenges of our world with wisdom and compassion.

Get Started
