About the teacher

A quiet, direct path.

Mirabai Bush co-developed Search Inside Yourself, the mindfulness-based emotional-intelligence programme created at Google, helping translate contemplative practice into a corporate training context. She also co-authored Compassion in Action with Ram Dass, and serves as a Senior Fellow at the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society.

Now in her late eighties, her current teaching is limited to occasional online sessions and podcast appearances, including the Metta Hour with Sharon Salzberg and an online gathering with Nina Rao in May 2026; her memoir, Almost Home, appeared in 2025.
