What we’re about
Anyone interested in starting or furthering their mindfulness/meditation practice.
While this tradition is Buddhist, you do not need to be a Buddhist to join nor will anyone try to 'convert' you. The teachings are practical and relevant to anyone seeking to bring more mindfulness into their lives.
Most of the events listed are at the SF Dharma Collective - https://sfdharmacollective.org/. Most classes are offered in our beautiful space, 2929 24th Street in the Mission of San Francisco. Most classes are also accessible via Zoom.
We are a community-run meditation center seeking to make meditation accessible to everyone. We wish to create and sustain communities of healthy, accountable, wise and compassionate people from every walk of life. We welcome people from all racial, economic, sexual, social, political and religious backgrounds and believe that the path of awakening is attainable by all and should be available to all.
All are events are freely available to all, and we ask for donations as you are able to sustain our teachers and our operational costs. https://sfdharmacollective.org/donate

Praise for Depth Hypnosis: A Path to Healing, Power, and Transformation
Depth Hypnosis is a formidable synthesis that will undoubtedly help many people open their hearts and minds to new levels of health and happiness.

At a time when so many of us are searching for deeper, more effective ways to bring about lasting change and transformation, this book offers a profound, clearly articulated guide for the journey. Gucciardi is the real deal.
Estelle Frankel, MFT, psychotherapist and author of Sacred Therapy and The Wisdom of Not Knowing
Isa Gucciardi’s book is a treasure trove of healing. She presents a cutting-edge post-modern approach to dealing with human suffering. A great book for all who feel the call to relieve suffering and revivify their deepest selves!
Reverend Matthew Fox, theologian, scholar, and best-selling author of Original Blessing
Depth Hypnosis is a creative approach that could really help people with their deeply rooted challenges of self-harshness and lack of adequate self-kindness. This book is a must for anyone who is serious about their mental well-being and aspires for greater self-empowerment and self-confidence.
Thupten Jinpa, principal translator to H.H. the Dalai Lama, and author of A Fearless Heart
