Nora Hale

I'm Nora Hale, and I write about meditation practice for zensoul.net from Portland, Oregon. I came to this after burning out at a marketing agency in Seattle, tried a ten-day Vipassana retreat in 2018 mostly out of desperation, and have been sitting every day since. I trained as a yoga teacher at Kripalu (200h RYT) and completed Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction facilitator training, not to teach but to understand what I was doing. I'm not a therapist and I'm clear about where that line sits. What I write comes from years of actual practice: the guided scripts, the technique breakdowns, the honest notes on what works and what doesn't. If something you read here resonated, email me at nora@zensoul.net.
