La Maida Institute is a place where ancient ideas and traditional practice meet modern needs & study. We offer our community home for learning and healing.
So many feel there is a great need for new ways of healing and new ways of living. It seems more obvious than ever that modernity itself, with the isolation and mechanization it brings, is leading us to become more and more disconnected from ourselves, community and the natural world. La Maida offers itself as a home for Los Angeles to begin to heal in ways that are both new and ancient, by, once again, exploring the value of community again in the healing process.
Caring for health within community is how humans have traditionally healed both emotionally and spiritually until modern times. It is in our ancestral DNA that health be attended to by our community, and it is in that inter-dependence that our true authenticity arises.
At La Maida we believe that healing has always happened in relationship and through transformative practices, awakening our innate wisdom and resilience.
La Maida Institute is committed to this ancient wisdom and to the creation of an integrative healing model for our modern times. Our model is one which honors the inter-connectedness of all parts of who we are, from the cellular to the body, mind and spirit, community and culture. Our focus is on restoring wholeness and integrity, promoting a culture of consciousness and mindfulness as the foundation for the health of the individual, family and community. Our model is grounded in practical and accessible methods and based in scientific empiricism and cutting edge interpersonal neurobiological research.
La Maida Institute is a place where ancient ideas meet modern need, and traditional practices meet science and study. We invite partnerships with our surrounding community - elders and innovators in health, education, spirituality, ecology, music, movement, arts and celebration to co-create new models for living. We are a home to individuals and families, people of all walks and ages, a home for learning, for integrity with life, and for regenerative practices with the earth. . .
We welcome you to join us.
