“I began studying under Cory in November of 2019. I wasn’t looking for a teacher, yet when I first spoke to Cory on a whim at my work, I knew I needed one. I went to Cory and spoke of meditation, mindfulness, and enlightenment, without knowing what those terms truly meant. At each of my weekly lessons, Cory took the time to take my input and help me develop conclusions of my own regarding all the learning material. He provided excellent reading, was an honest soundboard, and a stern but fair mentor. I appreciated every lesson that I was taught, even the ones I didn’t (and still don’t) grasp to this day.

Cory guided me toward the truth behind reflection, revelation, and of the self. Cory pointed me towards the mountains of Zen buddhism and of mindfulness and said “Let’s walk together.” He strode alongside me on my path, a road he had already traveled, just to help me walk over the branches strewn across it. Cory helped me develop mindfulness techniques that not only have galvanized my spiritual journey, but have helped me with my perspective which in turn, has given me the confidence to cross my rivers of doubt and face my anxiety and depression, which I have been battling since my teens.

Not only did Cory teach me mindfulness and help me along my spiritual journey, he also helped me with some physical exercises that have greatly improved my quality of life. I was in a severe car accident in the summer of 2018, and I asked Cory on a whim to help me with some basic stretches that I needed to do to help me stand on my feet for many hours at my job. Without hesitation, Cory changed his lesson plan to help me, and he showed me a slew of stretches and gave me advice that have provided me much relief. He also adjusted his meditation teachings to better suit my injuries, of which I am immensely grateful.

I highly recommend Cory and Corydharma.com as a teacher and as program. Cory is kind, patient, and an excellent teacher and guide. He will help you find your own path, and you will be mindful.”
