MeaningOfLife.com is a mission-based company dedicated to helping people define and fulfill what the Meaning of Life is to them.
We emphasize lasting happiness because the better we feel, the more meaning we experience in life, and the more likely we are to succeed at whatever we set out to do -- including fulfilling our life’s chosen purpose.
The centerpiece of our coaching and counseling program and corporate webinaris Reverse Mindfulness for Lasting Happiness,, a contemporary adaptation of a simple, ancient yogic tradition (no stretching included)
Its core is very simple: Instead of focusing solely on whatever we’re aware of, we learn to pay attention to what is aware of it. We soon discover that pure awareness is the true source of lasting happiness, peace and fulfillment, stress-free success and spiritual awakening.
Bruce Corwin is a wellness expert, Harvard graduate, and former Goldman Sachs Vice President who acquired MeaningOfLife.com and remade it into a wellness site in 2017. He had previously worked in wellness as Communications Director and widely read blogger at SparkPeople.com, then the world’s largest healthy living website. For much of his career, he worked with and counseled C-Suite executives and a Member of the US Congress.
From ages 12-23, Bruce experienced several illnesses linked to an undiagnosed genetic condition that ultimately landed him in an extreme depression. That motivated him to find the right treatment, which changed his life. But feeling “normal” wasn’t enough. Alongside a demanding career and busy family life, he pursued the key to lasting happiness and fulfillment of his potential as a professional and a human being.
Bruce developed Reverse Mindfulness for Lasting Happiness in 2019. He closely derived it from an ancient yogic tradition (no stretching involved) and modernized it for a mainstream Western audience.
Bruce loves playing basketball (even at his age 🙂) and doing occasional stand-up comedy. He teaches serious, life-altering material in a lighthearted, down-to-earth way. He loves his two amazing, original teenagers beyond words. He lives in New Jersey, USA.
