We seek to give to students of the University of the Heart:

(1)a body of knowledge, based on a cohesive philosophy which supports the development of the heart by helping to make the nature of the heart and its growth comprehensible to the mind;
(2)a set of core spiritual skills that the student will use throughout their progress through the Nine Steps of Realization; and
(3)a set of experiences of the heart that will give the student the sense of conviction necessary to advance on the path of the heart.

Skills Development

Individual Retreats

Our courses are designed to impart the knowledge and philosophy discussed above; courses emphasize reading, writing about experiences in meditation, and interpreting your life and challenges through the material in the course.
We use a combination of face-to-face classroom teaching and distance learning to maximize our effectiveness. Each course begins with a day-long seminar, taught in one of six cities: Tucson, Boston, Ventura, Chicago, Houston, and Denver. Our local teachers will introduce the conceptual material for each course, then lead a series of meditations and other experiential practices to give the student hands-on training. We call these seminars Skills Development, a part of the program which works in harmony with our online webcourses. The webcourses offer a distinct advantage to classroom learning, which is that students can complete the coursework at home. The webcourse component of each course lasts 8 weeks (see the Calendar for more detail), and includes reading, meditation instruction and personalized feedback, written essays and other assignments.
