Greg Schweitzer, MBA., D. Ay.,

The founder and director of Stress Reduction Resources, experienced his life change significantly in 1974 when he enrolled in a meditation course in his hometown of Reading, PA. At the time, he was a young, overwhelmed and anxious Industrial Engineer working for one of the world’s largest food companies.

Within days of adding a short meditation practice to his daily routine, his life noticeably improved. Happiness, enthusiasm, focus, energy, and sense of purpose returned to his life. Two years after he began to meditate, Greg decided to learn how to teach this self-care practice to others. He enrolled in an extensive year-long training program and became a teacher of the iconic meditation practice that he learned, Transcendental Meditation®. He did not realize how substantially this decision would impact his life. Helping others through his meditation teaching became his life-long vocation.

In the first seventeen years of his teaching career, Greg taught Transcendental Meditation at several centers in the Northeast U.S. including the Maharishi Ayurveda Health Center in Lancaster, MA. While at that center, under the clinical direction of Deepak Chopra, M.D., he met and taught an amazing array of international clients from students to world leaders.

Twenty+ years ago, Greg left the multi-national organization that teaches TM and began teaching a meditation technique that he calls Effortless Meditation™. His private and group meditation programs are offered in several locations. Instruction is also available remotely by FaceTime and Skype, all under the auspices of Stress Reduction Resources, an organization he established in 1994.

During his 35+ years as an instructor of meditation, Greg has introduced thousands to the benefits of the practice. His passion for teaching is driven by the changes that he’s seen in his life and in the lives of those who attend his classes. His client list includes people from all backgrounds: students, employees, executives, organizations of all sizes, physician-referred patients, and celebrities such as George Harrison of the Beatles and best-selling author, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

Greg Schweitzer, of Stress Reduction Resources in Sinking Spring, PA, has been designing, developing, and delivering personal and organizational development programs through stress management for over 35+ years.

In 1974, he enrolled in a meditation course. Immediately and remarkably the quality of his life improved. After two years of implementing a daily meditation practice, Greg left his career as an industrial engineer in order to embark on an intensive one-year training program to teach meditation. His passion for teaching today is driven by the positive changes that he's experienced in his own life.

He has immense gratitude and appreciation for his first meditation teacher, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of the Transcendental Meditation program. In the early 90's, Greg was a director and teacher at the Maharishi Ayurveda Health Center for Behavioral Medicine and Stress Management, in Lancaster, MA, under the clinical direction of renowned author and mind/body medicine pioneer, Deepak Chopra, M.D.

Today, Greg works in a variety of settings as an educator, professional speaker, wellness coach, and retreat facilitator. His clients are in the thousands and include professionals, corporations, homemakers, students, teachers, and internationally renowned thought leaders and entertainment celebrities.
