RWM Education, Inc.
meditation for the real world
Non-profit organization dedicated to teaching meditation. Our emphasis is NOT on stress reduction or spiritual aspects - it is on the practical benefits, namely that meditation helps relationships, career, health, happiness, creativity, sports, and performance generally. RWM stands for Real World Meditation. The website will be RealWorldMeditation.org. We have taught in-person classes on a small scale for years but now looking to expand and offer online classes as well.
Target audience is the general public, but with an intention towards those who have not been traditionally so well served by meditation - e.g. poorer communities, people of color, youth at risk, and the elderly.
Book cover design is attached. This is a book by one of us coming out later this year / early next. We think the design is okay, but is by the publisher and not amazing (hence trying 99designs). We like that it's clean and professional looking. Originally there were all these very meditation-y things like buddha, candles, smoke. The stones at the bottom were a last minute way of saving this. They don't quite work but are intended to show the meditation stones as stepping stones through life.
Our logo doesn't have to be clever and have a symbolic concept of practical meditation - but if someone could come up with something that would be amazing. It is about us teaching meditation, but as a practical, modern skill.
