In this episode, I interview my former mentor and spiritual teacher Jeff Carreira.
Jeff and I lived, worked, and practiced in an intentional spiritual community together for 13 years in Western Massachusetts. Jeff was not only a spiritual mentor to me during that time, but he was also my boss.
Jeff was the Director of our educational programming, and I was his program manager. Together, Jeff and I built a thriving program of retreats and virtual courses.
And in a strict ashram with a hard teacher, Jeff provided an oasis of ease and compassionate presence. Jeff helped me, and many others, through many a rough patch.
Today, Jeff leads his own retreats, courses, and teacher trainings over at JeffCarreira.com.
Find Equanimity Amid Uncertainty
So I was delighted to reconnect with him during this Zoom interview with a live audience. I spoke with Jeff at the outset of the pandemic in March as part of a series called Finding Equanimity Amid Uncertainty. And as always, he was intent on communicating a message of positivity and possibility.
Then, he led us all through a powerful guided meditation and answered questions.
I encourage to take the time to listen to this whole episode. Set aside an hour and find a quiet place to listen. You’ll get a heavy dose of Jeff’s infectious optimism followed by a deep transmission of peace, ease, and fundamental well being.

I loved listening to this audio that helps us to meditate well.
In meditation I discovered a comfort that I had never had or at least felt for a long time. I was really pleasantly surprised by this audio.
Hey Morgan, I’ve been studying HRV and meditation. I might be doing my own research project. It would take a few hours of your time. Are you interested? – Chris
Hi Chris! Thanks so much for checking in and for asking. Unfortunately I don’t have any extra bandwidth at the moment. With a full time “day job” I’m struggling to keep this website going and that’s my priority for the moment. But don’t hesitate to check back in the future. I’d be happy to reconsider if the timing makes sense. Thanks again, Morgan
Meditation has opened up so many areas of my life.
This one helped me so much!
