As a sanctioned Zen teacher, licensed psychotherapist, and serial entrepreneur, it’s my great pleasure to endorse ZenVR, and to serve as Lead Investor. It’s been well-established that mindfulness is one of the most powerful tools we can use to regulate the nervous system. A calm nervous system results in reduced stress, less anxiety and more choice, as we are less driven by our unconscious impulses and conditioning, and more free to choose how to act in alignment with our goals and values. There has never been a greater need for mindfulness in a world of overstimulation, derision and isolation. Matt Golino and his team have done a wonderful job making mindfulness practice accessible to anyone through their virtual platform which features a calm and relaxing Zendo (practice space), and Kai, a teacher who is an amalgamation of many archetypes who is easy to understand and practice with. I have used ZenVR with many students new to mindfulness practice, and it has received universal accolades. I could not be more pleased to be involved with this project, and I hope you’ll join me in seeing the tremendous potential ZenVR has to positively impact the world.
