  • As a long-time student of Buddhism, I was drawn to Ari and Rose Goldfield because they offered something fresh and unique. They helped me to trust my own mind-body experience as my best spiritual guide. With their kind, personal support, I have been able to transform my tired practice into an intimate and heartfelt journey.

    Tom G., Retired Fundraiser, Chicago

  • I found Rose to be deeply knowledgeable about Tibetan Buddhist meditation practice, both intellectually and experientially. She communicated with our Mahamudra group with warmth and down-to-earth clarity as well as a touch of magic. I came away from the class with a more profound understanding of my own practice. Thank you Rose!

    Sandra S.

  • Wisdom Sun was the first place I found where there were no wrong answers. I can ask anything or share anything and be heard compassionately and safely, allowing me to explore new perspectives that have improved my sense of trust in myself and others.

    Carla, Psychotherapist

  • In a world that can feel increasingly hostile and polarizing, Rose and Ari have connected and nurtured a community within which I continually discover the part of me that can begin to engage the world, and my reactions to it, with humor, playfulness, and compassion.

    Tim J. Luddy, Yoga and Meditation Teacher

  • Over the last ten years, Rose and Ari have taught and engaged us with their warm, honest, friendly, humorous, direct, grounded, wise and compassionate presence. They teach the dharma and Mahamudra in a way that encourages us to be grounded and openly communicate what we are experiencing. They receive our communications with warmth and openness and they encourage us to directly experience what is actually present and real. It is a great gift to be in this community with them.

    Mark E., Retiree, Father, Loving Partner, Occasional Musician

  • Ari and Rose honor my feelings as they provide heartfelt support for my wisdom journey, assuring me that all things are doable and we are always connected with love. Through the gentle power of their teaching, I found confidence take the place of long held fears and insight open a bright inner world with unrecognized resources. I longed for yogic teachers whom I could trust with my heart. Ari and Rose’s deep humanity and integrity allow me to feel very happy to share their path in this precious life.

    Bruce M., Sculptor and Teaching Artist

  • Rose is a gifted meditation teacher—her openness, kindness, and knowledge allow teachings and practices to be accessible to her students in a safe space free of judgment. What’s more she is a mom… a mom who understands the journey of parenthood with all of its joys and challenges. Her series was not only an investment in myself but also in my family providing me with tools to check in, connect, and be more present. I highly recommend her classes.

    Saara F., Mother and Teacher of Early Childhood Education

  • The Nourishing Meditation series is a grounding, mindful and replenishing way to start the week. I find it hard to meditate alone, so the small group setting is very helpful, reassuring, and supportive. Rose is a gifted, wise teacher; somehow she knows exactly what to bring to the group each week to support our meditation practice. Rose uses Tibetan Yoga to release the wisdom in the body to enable a deeper nourishing connection.

    Alice S., Waldorf Teacher

  • To experience the intimate depth and breadth of Ari’s and Rose’s teachings while in the loving presence of the Wisdom Sun sangha has been, and continues to be, such a gift and comfort to this senior!

    Sarah P. Photographer

  • Within the safe and supportive space of learning and sharing with Ari and Rose, I have developed a greater capacity to tolerate the ambiguities and confusions of life. I have nurtured my self-understanding; reduced my fear-based avoidance behaviors; and grown in my ability to practice curiosity, courage, and self-compassion. When I see my family and friends stuck in lonely or fearful places, I wish they could connect with Ari and Rose’s loving presence, and the Wisdom Sun community. It’s the most wholesome, healthy, and absolutely nourishing support on our precious planet!

    Karen J.

  • If you are seeking a spacious environment to learn about love for yourself, and to be nurtured to grow, it doesn’t matter which path you take with Wisdom Sun. They all lead to the same place. Enjoy the ride!
