Marcus Goodwin is a New York City Pedicab driver who lives over a fish market in Chinatown; he is an acclaimed mystic and Author. For more than 20 years Goodwin has explored how in everyday life intuition and energy science play a role. After the go-go 90’s his first book, THE PSYCHIC INVESTOR (Adams Media 2000) was hailed as a milestone in business intuition. Now, with his new book THE BUDDHA AND THE GREEN TAXI, Goodwin tackles the universal query, “What is the meaning of life?” Through a synergy of Buddha-dharma philosophy and meditation, plus healthy food choices and exercise, Goodwin offers a workable jargon-free atlas to purge everyday suffering -- and acheive enlightenment. Goodwin is a distance runner, former clinical nutritionist and student of Theravada, Zen, and Tibetan Buddhism. He lives and works in New York City.

Meditation is a description of the mind in its natural state. Not the state it use to be in, or the state it might be in after you’ve meditated for a while: but the way the mind actually is right now. If you want to understand your mind you should sit down and observe it. Marcus offers a 1-hour class that engages the practice of mindfulness meditation. Class begins with meditation instruction followed by a 20-minute sitting practice; followed by group discussion. For prices and to schedule a class at your home, office or community gathering, contact Marcus directly.
