Dr. Lorin Roche (1949-2026)

Dr. Lorin Roche began his lifelong journey with asana, pranayama, and meditation in 1968—yet even after 50+ years of practice, teaching, and research, he approached each day with a beginner’s wonder.

A true pioneer, Lorin dedicated his life to developing personalized meditation practices, honoring each individual’s inner nature. He founded two transformative systems:

• The Radiance Sutras®: A Sanskrit-based approach for the yoga community

• Instinctive Meditation®: A commonsense method tailored to one’s unique rhythm

Holding a PhD from UC Irvine, Lorin researched meditative experiences deeply. His beloved books, treasured worldwide, are considered essential reading for meditators.

For decades, Lorin led international retreats, trained teachers, and consulted with individuals, businesses, and universities to craft culturally attuned meditation programs. He lived in Marina del Rey, California, with his wife and creative partner, Camille Maurine.
