The Heart of the Matter Meditation Community is an inspired group of people who are dedicated to living lives of joy, peace, clarity and strong internal, spiritual connection. Meditating with the App, the daily-streamed meditations and using our ongoing meditation programs are foundational practices that help us to fulfill on our individual and collective purposes.

Piper Makepeace
Having been on a serious quest for truth and freedom since 1982, Piper feels that we are living in a time when many people are struggling with a longing and a dissatisfaction that they experience every day. In response to people’s desire for something more, she has guided thousands to find a deeper connection with their soul and the Source of love.
From 1982 to 1990, Piper was a co-founder and director of a preschool company that served hundreds of children in the Washington, DC area. During those years, she also helped teenagers as a mentor and member of the Board of Directors for a nationwide youth at risk program.
Since 1990, Piper has traveled around Europe and the United States teaching meditation and assisting people through counseling and mediation. In 2005, she co-founded and co-directed a meditation center in San Francisco, serving hundreds of people prior to launching Heart of the Matter Transformation in 2011.
Every weekday Piper, Dove and their team provide a live-streamed meditation that allows people around the world to meditate together at the same time. They created the Heart of the Matter Meditation App in 2017, so that people can access this practice anywhere and at any time.

When he was 19 years old, Dove started his spiritual journey, learning, and practicing various types of meditation and other transformational processes.
Because of the profound shifts he has experienced, Dove has committed his life to providing essential tools for people to have their own personal connection with spirit.
For the past 20 years, Dove has been developing and teaching programs that allow people to live a connected, spiritual lifestyle in the midst of this material world. He was the co-founder and co-director of a meditation center in San Francisco, serving hundreds of people for 5 years prior to launching Heart of the Matter Transformation in 2011.
Since 1990, Dove has been a neuromuscular body therapist, offering an effective method for pain relief. He is currently practicing in Denver, Colorado. Dove created and has been teaching his NBT technique in Germany since 2004, which has now expanded to the United States.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.—MARGARET MEAD
