Background:
Seth Monk is a meditation teacher, retreat leader, energy healer, and transformational guide now transplanted to Los Angeles. Seth is a former Buddhist monk of 8 years who spent his time living in a monastery and practicing with various teachers including Thich Nhat Hanh, Ajahn Brahm, and His Holiness XIV Dalai Lama. During his time as a monk, Seth practiced with teachers from various traditions, went on multiple retreats, and worked at his center’s Chinese Medicine clinic where he received his understanding of the mind/body connection. The monastery also had weekly weekend retreats where Seth was able to deepen his understanding of the art of transformational processing. After he left the monastery, Seth spent two years traveling through India meeting various spiritual teachers, spending time at sacred sites, and also undertook a solo-retreat in a holy cave in the Himalayan mountains.
After disrobing and returning to his hometown of Boston, Massachusetts, Seth began working in schools to bring mindfulness, meditation, and social emotional learning to students and teachers during the height of the opioid crisis. He then transitioned into leading professional development seminars and weekend retreats for school faculties to help transform the educational paradigm from within. Seth was then asked to be a part of the Wellness Team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a meditation coach at Blue Cross Blue Shield’s corporate office. He also began leading Siddha Energy Healing events connected to a lineage he was initiated into during his time in India.
After leaving Boston, Seth spent time living in northern California, Tulum, and Las Vegas, before settling in Los Angeles where he currently leads weekly meditations at various centers, holds monthly Men’s Circles, and facilitates Group Siddha Healing events.
