Gerit Stöcklmair
Gerit Stöcklmair is a microbiologist and psychotherapist, originally from Austria. Curiosity about the inner and outer world has taken her on many journeys, and she has lived in England, Scotland, and South Korea, before settling in Denmark, where she now lives. She has been practicing meditation since 1994 and has been on extended retreats since 1998, mainly Vipassana, but also within the Zen and Triratna traditions.

I have always enjoyed working with practitioners who are continuing to deepen their practice. In the many long retreats I teach at both IMS and Spirit Rock, I feel free to pass on the deepest pointings I’ve found in the teachings of the Buddha in the Pali Canon. Those are my guiding lights in practice and understanding.

Goenka, she has since been influenced by both Burmese and Thai streams of the Theravada tradition, and by Tibetan Dzogchen with Tsoknyi Rinpoche. Most recently she has been studying with Burmese Sayadaw U Tejaniya.

Howard Cohn
The more I rest in present awareness, and don't separate myself out from life, the more I appreciate the impact that I have on others. Only when I am present am I sensitive to my connection to the world, am I able to feel how important it is to be non-harming in my words and actions. When I am lost in thought, I lose that simplicity and sensitivity.
