About me I have been teaching meditation since 2014, and the more I teach the
more I love it. If there is one thing that I have learned in my years teaching
it is that we are all different, with our own strengths and weaknesses. In order
to teach well, I need to get to know each student individually, guiding each to
tap into their own innate wisdom, offering instruction that fits each student’s
unique circumstances. The ten years I spent as a Buddhist nun afforded me the
great privilege of being able to practise meditation in much depth and detail. I
was blessed with masterful teachers and all of the support I could have hoped
for. I spent five years in Myanmar training diligently in the Theravada
tradition under the guidance of Pa Auk Sayadaw. I then spent a further five
years training in several other methods, and spent many months doing long solo
retreats in various caves and forests.
