Meet Our Meditation Leaders
We are thrilled to be offering another week-long meditation!
Starting on Monday, February 19th to Friday, February 23rd we’ll have a different meditation leader so we can learn new perspectives to add to our practice.
This is a free meditation event and no experience is necessary. You can come to one day or all five and practice 12 minutes of guided Kirtan Kriya. We’d love to see you there at 12 pm PT / 3 pm ET. Please register here.
Now, let’s get to know our meditation leaders:

Barbara Lowes, E-RYT 500, YACEP, Reiki Master, BLS
Barb was inspired to study the practice of Brain Longevity after her father passed away from Alzheimer’s. She uses this passion to teach others the empowering yoga strategies found in ancient wisdom teachings. These studies are proven to relieve tension and anxiety, improve mood, boost focus and concentration – plus build a strong memory to keep the brain active, robust, and healthy.
“I’ve been practicing Kirtan Kriya every day since I took BLTT a few years ago and I don’t forget a thing. So, thank you. I have also been enjoying all of the ARPF webinars and programs– I have learned so much. I am thrilled to be a part of this unbelievable experience and to share it with all of my students. I’m also thinking about having a one-week Meditation Challenge, too. I loved the one we did with ARPF. I am forever grateful.” – Barbara
