Brian D. Smith has highlighted and collaborated with several meditation teachers and approaches to make practical, non-dogmatic meditation more accessible and transformative:
- Kelvin Chin – Featured on the Grief 2 Growth podcast and blog (“Why Meditation Isn’t Working for You”), focusing on making meditation easy, secular, and free of cultural/ritual trappings, and tracing the history from Transcendental Meditation (TM) into his own Open Meditation work.
- Patricia Saunders – TM teacher and best‑selling author, interviewed on YouTube about Transcendental Meditation for personal and societal transformation, including research on reduced crime and stress when groups practice TM.
These collaborations fit the broader Grief 2 Growth mission: meditation as a tool for nervous system regulation, spiritual growth, and support in grief.
Are you more interested in meditation for personal healing, or in the “societal impact” research side?
