David Hart | Mindfulness, Meditation, and Media
Hart-headshot.jpg

Hello.
My name is David.

I like meditation and mindfulness—and sometimes I teach it. I also make stuff (writing, audio, video, websites) for museums and good people. 
Here are some recent examples.

These are my recommendations for mindfulness and meditation resources, mostly online. I’m not the David Hart who makes ties, but he seems nice.

Featured Stuff:


Meditation & Mindfulness

I’ve taught over 1,000 meditation and mindfulness classes for youth and adults. My clients have included creative agencies, law firms, financial services agencies, schools, and hospitals.  

I'm interested in helping people develop more attention, awareness, and a supportive attitude of connection to themselves and the world.

Meditation Teacher

I sometimes teach onsite and online meditation. If you’re looking for onsite or online classes or workshops, drop me a line.

Retreat Mentor

I serve as a retreat mentor on mindfulness retreats for youth and adults with the Insight Meditation Society (IMS) and Inward Bound Mindfulness Education (iBme)

Schools & Afterschool

I volunteer and teach with other school and afterschool programs including the (on hiatus) Awake Youth Project.


Media

I makes things for fun—and for organizations and nonprofits. Recent examples include:

Audio & Podcasting

The Pop Culture Salvage Expeditions is a podcast that uses the lessons of pop culture for making artistic activism more effective. I've edited an episode for the series. I also created and edited my own podcast about living in Boston for a year.

Video

I shoot and edit video, including online courses.
Recent example include course for Wisdom Publications and an online course for The National Gallery of Art. I started the video program at MoMA, including this important teaser video with a cat.

Writing

Occasionally I write things like greeting cards (seriously) or short humor pieces on sites like McSweeney's.

"Don't I know you?"

You may recognize me from Google Maps in France with my wonderful wife. 

Or that other time I was on Google Maps in New York.
(No, I was not flipping the bird—grow up).
