Gricell has been studying with Lama Michael Gregory since 2014. The years that culminated in
meeting Lama Michael and joining Mindfulness Meditation Centers (MMC), was a result of collapse with much of life.

Since meeting Lama Michael, Gricell has completed two 90 Day Mindfulness and Rational Living Programs, has taken refuge, Bodhisattva Vows and in 2017 joined the MMC teacher training program.

She has completed the MMC shedra offering cycle. In 2021, started participating in
group/class/retreat practice sharing for Ngondro, Tsa Lung Trulkhor, Chod, Chenrezig/Amitabha, and has completed Ngondro. Presently, she continues, enrolled in the MMC class offerings including the Chakrasamvara class and group practices.

The experience is of a shifting to more clarity with purpose, more calmness, kindness and caring with self, others and situations.

Gricell, graduated with BS in Electrical Engineering and enjoyed an exciting career for over 20 years of working in the computer hardware industry leading designs for IBM.
