Sean Fargo is a seasoned mindfulness teacher and the founder of Mindfulness Exercises, a platform dedicated to making mindfulness accessible to everyone. Sean's journey into mindfulness began after a successful career in international business, during which he was a Director of Product Development and Procurement in Beijing. Despite his business success, Sean felt called to explore deeper aspects of life, leading him to ordain as a Buddhist monk in the Thai Theravada tradition. He spent two years immersed in monastic life, learning the art of mindfulness and meditation from some of the most respected teachers in the field.
Upon returning to the Western world, Sean sought to bridge the gap between traditional mindfulness practices and modern life. He worked closely with renowned meditation teacher Jack Kornfield at Spirit Rock Meditation Center and became a trainer for Google’s mindfulness program. Sean’s work extends to advising technology startups like Elevate Labs and WellBrain.io, as well as teaching mindfulness to top executives at companies such as PG&E, Reddit, and DocuSign.
In 2015, Sean founded Mindfulness Exercises to share the transformative power of mindfulness with a broader audience. His platform offers a wealth of free and premium resources, including guided meditations, worksheets, and a comprehensive mindfulness teacher certification program. With a mission to help others develop mindfulness with integrity and compassion, Sean has impacted over 20 million people worldwide. Through his teachings, Sean continues to inspire others to live more present, loving, and resilient lives, especially in challenging times.
Sean’s deep commitment to mindfulness is not just professional but personal, as he continues to embody the principles of mindfulness in every aspect of his life and work.
