Sylvia Boorstein, Ph.D. is a co-founding teacher at Spirit Rock Meditation Center and a Senior Teacher at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts. She has been teaching Vipassana retreats since 1985. Beloved by her students, Sylvia has a special ability to show how we can be mindful standing in a grocery store checkout line as well as sitting on a meditation cushion. Mindfulness as part of our everyday lives becomes clear through her teaching. In December 2007, her fifth book, Happiness is an Inside Job, was published by Ballantine Books. Her books have been translated into seven different languages.
