Kenji Summers

I meditated for 2,000 days straight. My teacher was the man that taught MJ and Kobe. Here's what I learned:

Day 3,000 of meditating every day. 🏆

Too many reformers; not enough revolutionaries and radicals with an ethical heart and a rational mind.

I’m better on Threads. Same name. 🤞🏽

We’re not just online. We also gather every third Saturday morning at Awake NY in the Lower East Side. If this feels like you, let me know and I’ll send you the Telegram link. 2/2

I’m working toward reaching 100M people who are seeking peace. Three years ago, during COVID I started a meditation club that meets on Zoom every Friday at 9am ET. It has always been free for all, zero-cost, and the only way it continues is if more of our people join. 1/2

Real talk, I’ve had the year they write memoirs about.

I’m looking for a talent manager who has built sustainable, long-term businesses. My work lives at the intersection of mindfulness, music, and sport, grounded in Black spiritual culture, coaching elite athletes, and building original IP with integrity. Send recos👇🏽

Shoutout to everyone building a life before building a brand.

I just heard this lyric that stopped me in my tracks: "I wanted to be better than my father but history's just repeating" (billy woods)

What are you deep listening to today? Great music only 👇🏾

Your nervous system knows the truth before your mind does. What’s healthy for you regulates your nervous system. Period. If that person, place, or thing doesn’t, leave.

You. Yes, you. You’re not crazy for wanting a world that cares enough to feed the poor and wise enough to ask why they’re poor in the first place.

@BarackObama "The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them".

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Not sure who needs to hear this… the system may be crashing out, but your nervous system doesn’t have to. Inhale. Pause. Exhale. Let go.

Just hit 2,800 days straight meditating 🧘🏾‍♂️ I’m not fully healed, but I see myself and the world way more clearly now. If you meditate, what’s the biggest change you’ve noticed?

Peace is divine.

Yesterday, an innocent died—it could’ve been any one of us. Today I woke up alive. I don’t know why God keeps blessing me, but I have faith it’s so I can be a blessing to you.

@HunterReveur Praying before I speak an ill word.

@KenjiSummers Meditating in motion. What about you sensei Kenji?

How are you protecting your peace this week?

Black man, you deserve a restful night's sleep and a purposeful day's work.
