Ancient Framework for a Happier Modern Life
Better Health. Vitality. Focus. Balance. Peace.
If you're low on energy, fuzzy about your direction, and tired of the chaos, you're in the right place at the right time. I can help you.
I teach a realistic approach that uses timeless wisdom to help you…
  • Live in the moment by mastering time ...
  • Experience a calm mind and access inner peace ...
  • Achieve focus, clarity, direction and a life’s purpose ...
  • ​Organize your priorities and optimize the “outflow” of energy ...
  • ​Step into your personal power and have the energy you need to live the life of your dreams ...
It’s the ‘little things’ that keep stacking up and getting in your way, isn’t it?
  • You feel gnawing guilt because you missed that workout at the gym again ...
  • You regret not spending enough time with your kids, spouse or parents ...
  • You leave for vacation and come back feeling even more drained than before you left ...
Then there’s that constant, relentless hum of anxiety. Always there in the background of your life. Now the world is also upside down. Politics are crazy and it seems like things are slipping into chaos.

Can you feel it?

And before you know it…
You’re a tightly wound ball of stress —  
feeling overwhelmed, run down and stuck in a rut...
Does that sound familiar? Look... You’re not alone.

What you’re experiencing are symptoms of our ‘always on,’ yet oddly disconnected modern culture.

These days, we have more commitments, more demands and more ‘friends’ than ever before. And it’s leaving us stressed, frustrated and overwhelmed. You’re being pulled in so many different directions, sometimes it feels like you’re going to… SNAP!

If you’ve already been trying to make changes and not seeing results, you’re not alone. Have you tried to stick to a better diet and failed? Have you committed to exercise routines and not seen them through? Are you distracted by your phone and foggy in the head? This is all a symptom of an “operating system” that’s not working for you.
So what’s the answer?
Ancient practices from the East coupled with a sensible approach I’ve taught my busy Los Angeles patients for years.

It took me a few years to “translate” what I learned as a monk into a useful framework for stressed out busy people, but I nailed it. 
How can you attain peace in a way that doesn’t screw up your schedule, your commitments, and your life?
Even better, how can you practice these skills in a way that ENHANCES your life?

How can you get past your pain and trauma and actually thrive?

I realized that you’re not going to shave your head and go live in silence in a mountaintop monastery. So I had to bring that training down to you.
You’ve got bills to pay, dogs to feed 
and children to raise!
I'm here to tell you that...
There’s another way. A better way.
  • A way for you to not just survive, but thrivein this new “age of overwhelm.” Our current reality of smartphones, always-on communication, social media, daily stress, demanding families, work commitments, relationships, and the sheer anxiety of keeping up in a fast-changing world.
  • A way for you to finally breathe deep, relax, feeling calm, nourished and gain clarity on who you are, what you want and where you want to go.
  • A way to effortlessly integrate the powerful teachings of my spiritual teachers into modern life.
I call it… the way of the Urban Monk.
Who is the URBAN MONK?
My name is Pedram Shojai.
After studying biology at UCLA, I experienced a series of profound mystical coincidences that drew me to Eastern esoteric arts. I became a Doctor of Oriental Medicine.

I’ve studied and practiced Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, Yoga, meditation and medicine diligently for the past 20 years. All the while traveling the world, meeting inspiring people who are making a difference in their communities. I was a Taoist Monk for four of those years.

You see, my passion is to bring the ancient wisdom of the East down to earth for regular people like you, here in our towns and cities.

Because what I’ve realized over the years is there has been a terrible misunderstanding in the West…
...and countless millions are needlessly suffering because of it.

Many of the trendy Eastern practices have come from ascetic lineages. What does that mean? It means the people who practice them successfully have chosen a life of abstinence. Of giving up money, or sex, or family as well as other worldly pursuits in search of a deeper spiritual connection.

Now, ask yourself this. Be honest.

Does that sound like you?
Are you really ready to give up the good things in life and run for the hills? What about your family and loved ones? 
Of course not...
Like I said, most of us feel guilty about missing yoga class. So how can we possibly expect to renounce the world when we have to deal with mortgages, leases, tuition and gas-guzzling cars?

Not. Going. To. Happen.

And that’s why I’ve spent the last 20 years weaving together a solution…
Proven effective practices drawn from ancient eastern wisdom…
Once I got rid of all the flowery language, I took the best practices that had helped me and taught them to my patients. It worked! And what I found was… by making small changes, tiny little tweaks, and by performing simple practices each and every day... a profound transformation occurs.

Whatever it is you may want or need... be it more money, greater peace, less stress or more joy... I believe you can have it all when you get really clear on your “Life Garden” and stop watering the weeds in your life.

In other words?
Knowledge only gets you so far... The key is to simplify and put that knowledge to work for you.
Here’s the core issue:

Most people use mind-body practices as bandaids like pain killers- they mask the real issues which keep coming back up. Throwing yoga, meditation, massage, or herbs like darts at life’s problems IS NOT WORKING and you know it. This is a primitive approach that is destined to fail. It is evidenced by the world we see around us.

So what is the solution? Developing a new “operating system” for the crazy world all around us. Toxic exposure, smog, traffic, an uncertain future, and a shifting power struggle on the world stage are all causing a different kind of stress than our ancestors had before.

The world is different yet we keep trying to use old strategies to make things ok. It doesn’t work. It’s like clicking on the “meditation” icon on your computer when you’re stressed out to feel better, only to close it and return to 23 open windows and tabs…all that stress remains right there.

So let’s talk about setting mindfulness, self care, and personal development as the center of your being…your core operating system. From there, you are more resilient, adaptive, and capable of handling what life throws at you. That’s the Way of The Urban Monk.

Right now, I’d like to share how I can help you make that happen.

I’ve created a program where each day you can learn, integrate and implement new practices into your daily life. I’ll be right there with you each day, guiding you along to better health, greater peace, more energy and improved clarity on what you want out of life.

This is your opportunity to join me and thousands of other men and women, all committed to improving, enhancing and upgrading their lives by enrolling in…
Introducing Time Mastery 
A "Life Mastery" implementation program to greater happiness, peace, abundance, health and joy...
Each week you’ll be given an audio lesson and transcript detailing a key part of The Urban Monk process. Plus you’ll sometimes be given a little homework because, in the end, it is you working on your life. That’s where the difference is made. I’m here to empower you to make the right changes and come to your power.

Once you understand the process, you’re empowered to keep making positive changes in your life and you keep going. That’s why I offer ongoing support.

And then you’ll be invited to start a “gong.”

What’s a gong?

It’s a period of time dedicated to a specific task each day. You get gong examples for each facet of The Urban Monk process. Many of them are healthy swaps for something you’re already doing that isn’t serving you.

By completing each daily item, you’ll find more personal power, clarity, and drive. There’s nothing like making progress and seeing the positive effects in your life! My students have been doing Gongs for years and this program has been helpful in supporting them all along.
That means better health, more wealth,
greater joy, clarity and contentment…
Did you know it takes around 90 days to create a new habit? That’s the reason I’ve made each gong last 100 days.

That’s 100 days of working on yourself and seeing the positive impact.

There’s nothing more liberating.

Each day will be a practice you pick for yourself. It is your gong and I’m just here to support your growth. You’ll start to feel better and have more energy and enthusiasm to roll forward over time. This is great news because it becomes your win and nobody can take that from you.
