About me
.jpg)
Welcome to my page! My name is Ettore Vitali, I live now in the Central Valley of California with my wife and my dog. I am currently an Associate Professor of Physics at California State University, Fresno, and I have been a researcher in the mysteries of quantum physics for more than 15 years. I started to practice Yoga in 2009, and my spontaneous desire to explore the mysteries of "who we are?", "what is all this?" ... has led me through a wonderful journey of inquiries and insights, where my scientific background "met" intuitive wisdom. Nevertheless, only when I found myself struggling with stress and deep anxiety, I could really discover the importance of meditation as a way to approach life. This induced me to enroll in the iRest teacher training program (currently I am an iRest® Level 1 Teacher) and I plan to continue my journey: my hope is to be able to share with others what really helped me when I most needed it. I wish to meet my students where they are, in the truth of the moment. I feel that, at this point in my life, teaching meditation is arising as a significant aspect of my heartfelt mission, and I hope that other people will experience the life-changing benefits at the physical, psychological and spiritual level.
What I can do for you
I am here for you and my role is to help you discover your own path in meditation. When I started my journey in meditation, I would have loved to find a person who could help me navigate the multitude of styles and approaches which exist. In particular, if a challenge in your life is calling you to meditation, it is very important to be able to find some orientation. The fact that something worked for someone else will not necessarily mean that it will work for you.
I will be delighted to have conversations with you, where we can go through one of the following •I can teach you in private lessons the 10 steps of the iRest®, a simple meditation technique, informed by the ancient teachings of Yoga Nidra, which will allow you to meet each moment in your life from a space of peace and well -being; •I can provide orientation and "coaching" in meditation: we will explore where you are at right now and we will discover together the meditative tools that will integrate best with your life, leading to physical, psychological and spiritual well- being; •We can do co-meditations, where I will join you as we meet your sensations, feelings, emotions, thoughts, beliefs, your I-thought ...
Before we start please read carefully below While meditation has been shown to help with several physical, emotional and mental conditions, this is NOT therapy and what I can do with you will NOT replace any therapeutic option that you may need. I am well aware that some religious beliefs may make you worried about whether meditation may not be "right" for you: I would encourage you to bring this conversation to an initial meeting, so we can explore together.
