Xoli Redmond

Xoli Redmond serves as both a a contemplative teacher and a licensed clincal psychologist in New Haven CT. He has significant experience in non-dual and insight-based and contemplative practice.

He describes his approach as Truth Orienting - incorporating contemplative, spiritual, mindfulness-based, cognitive, and existential approaches. Truth Orienting literally means: Truth Orienting - because only Truth will set you free. At first it may seem like there is a separate you that uses Truth to Orient, but as realization deepens, you will notice that you and the Truth are not two but inseparable. Truth Orienting combines aspects of therapeutic modalities and contemplative/spiritual traditions - promoting the arising of insight and wisdom, and self-realization / awakening / enlightenment.

What is stress? Why do I suffer? How do I skillfully work with my emotions? What do I do with my thoughts? What is happiness? How do I find peace? Who am I really? What is life? Truth Orienting assists in the contemplation of our deepest questions, and continuously orients towards the truth that is discovered within - our inherent wisdom. The aim is to find freedom from stress and problems, to realize our truest aspirations, to enter clarity, to become intimate with this experience we call life, to encounter who/what we really are, and to live from the Truth that we are.
