Caverly Morgan

After eight years as a Zen monk, Caverly Morgan discovered something unexpected: nothing was missing. The freedom she’d been searching for was already here.

Named one of 2025’s powerful women of the mindfulness movement, Caverly is a teacher of awakening, nonprofit founder, speaker, and author who blends the original spirit of Zen with a modern nondual and relational approach.

Caverly supports others in remembering our true nature—not through more techniques or self-improvement strategies, but through presence, inquiry, and togetherness.

She is the author of The Heart of Who We Are: Realizing Freedom Together and A Kids Book About Mindfulness. As founder of the nonprofits Peace in Schools (the nation’s first for-credit mindfulness program in U.S. public high schools) and Realizing Freedom Together, she has pioneered ways for communities to awaken collectively, making teachings that lead to liberation accessible to all.
