About The Garden: The Garden is a restored 18th century Villa nestled into the lush Hudson Valley, only an hour and a half from New York City. Through intelligent yoga design, delicious whole food preparations and the peaceful
landscape, each guest at The Garden develops a stronger awareness of the body and mind. Centered and ignited, we are able to radiate the fullness of our expression outward, effecting positive change in our environment, our
community, our family, ourselves.

The Garden is easily accessible from Grand Central Station by taking Metro North to Beacon where you will be picked up by one of our staff members. You can always drive, or carpool with someone who is driving.

About Sarah Barab:
While working toward a degree in Buddhist Psychology at Naropa University, Sarah first encountered the teachings of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, a great Tibetan meditation master. She came to consider him her root guru and primary practice inspiration. Sarah founded Naked Mind Productions in 2006, a non-profit dedicated to making Dharma inspired film. She has been a meditation practitioner in the Tibetan tradition for over 15 years. Sarah is also a professional astrologer and a certified yoga and meditation instructor. Having had the rare opportunity to interview many of the greatest living Buddhist teachers for her current documentary, Sarah has been deeply moved to share her experience with others. She is currently based in New York City. www.nakedmindthefilm.org
