About Wystan Bryant-Scott
Suffered lots. Meditated lots. Suffer lots less now. Happy to help.
Ever since I picked up a copy of Shinzen Young’s book, The Science of Enlightenment, I’ve been continually impressed by the conceptual clarity and practical utility of his style of teaching. I’m now thrilled to carry it forward as a Teacher of Unified Mindfulness.
My personal training background and general orientation is traditional, religious, and Buddhist. I’ve completed ~2.5 years of intensive residential monastic training, and I continue to learn and and practice within classical Buddhist contemplative traditions under teachers within the lineages of Theravada, Vajrayana, Zen, and Dzogchen, all amidst integrating this secular life.
For me, practice from the outset has been focused on the cultivation of Insight within a religious Buddhist context: awakening. Shinzen would call someone like me a ‘liberation-focused coach’. Supporting you along this axis of development in a pragmatic, metaphysically neutral manner is my motivation for teaching.
