Jim Malloy was trained as a meditation instructor in 1973 by the International Meditation Society, and has been teaching meditation for 40 years and spiritual development classes for 33 years. He has taught classes throughout the U.S. and in the U.K., and now teaches where he currently lives, on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, and globally, via his website: The World Wide Online Meditation Center.

To deepen his practice and further his teaching skills, he has studied with some of the world's foremost experts on meditation and spiritual awakening, including Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Swami Muktananda, Zen Master Shunryu Suzuki, and the 16th Karmapa of the Tibetan Karma Kagyu lineage.

He is the creator of Pure Light Audio Meditations, and author of "The Shift Goes On: How to Move Easily through the Shift and into the New Consciousness." Jim began his daily meditation practice in 1966, and from that time on, his passion for the spiritual journey has led him to an in-depth study of the dynamics of the path of awakening.
