Greg Barringer has been exploring personal well-being, mindfulness and what makes us feel happy and fulfilled for over 30 years. He holds advanced certifications in Hatha and Kundalini Yoga and Meditations. His teaching brings together these practices in extraordinary ways to accelerate our awareness and release the blocks which keep us from being free. He is, as his spiritual mentor would say, “A Pilgrim on the Path of Love.”
