Whether you're brand new to meditation or you've been practicing for years, this challenge has the power to transform your life!
Hi, I'm Eleanor! I am so glad that you found The Mindfulness With The Moon (MWTM) Challenge.
I created this course as my practicum to graduate from the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP) with my beloved teachers, Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach.
Each day, you'll set aside about 30 minutes for a
You'll receive over these 29 days, the most powerful teachings that transformed my life during my two-year training. I’m honored to now share them with you.
The music behind each track was chosen by my darling husband, Jon Medina. The sounds are meant to support your practice and sometimes stir emotions. That’s part of the magic.
This challenge invites you to be still, in the center of it all. We invite you to welcoming whatever arises with kindness and compassion.

🌑 Day 1: Planting the Seed
A new moon. A new beginning.
Mindfulness starts with noticing your breath, your body, this exact moment. At The Makaranda Method, we define mindfulness as simply "doing what you're doing while you're doing it." It's not about perfection. It’s about being in this very moment, where your life is happening.
What does mindfulness mean to you? Let this question be the seed that grows.
🌱 Day 2: Watering the Practice
Seeds need sunlight, water, and time. So does your attention.
Meditation is not about not thinking, of course we think. It’s about gently returning.
Today’s reminder: Notice. Begin again. Trust the process. Even a single breath can bring you back to now.
꩜ Day 3: Spirals and Cycles
You are not separate from the rhythms of nature or nature herself.
The sun moves in lines. The moon moves in spirals. So do you. Today, feel into the unseen forces guiding your breath, your energy, your emotions.
Let yourself remember: You are part of something WAY BIGGER THAN YOU ARE.



It's incredibly helpful to have a community of entrepreneurs to bounce ideas off of, especially as my business grows.
Every week I feel inspired and supported by the wisdom from each member, with immediate feedback and accountability for what's next.

I have accountability and focus on building my own business for the first time.
We come together and support each other and I have been able to gain real life clients from the Hive.
The membership has already paid for itself over and over again. If you are thinking about joining the hive, this is your sign!

I have often felt isolated and overwhelmed with the process of building my business.
The back-end tasks of my business are transforming from tedious and overwhelming, digestible. I am finally finding myself excited to engage with the process.
