My meditation journey began in 1998, and since then my practice has helped me effectively navigate anxiety, addiction, chronic illness…really all of the challenges of being human. I’m definitely enjoying a happier, more peaceful and fulfilling life, and love sharing these life-changing practices with others.

I’ve been offering meditation (and yoga) classes and workshops at the esteemed Grail Springs Retreat for Wellbeing since 2011, as well as in a variety of private and community settings and retreat centers, working with both adults and children.

I was first introduced to Shinzen Young in 2016, and the impact of his teachings on my practice were so positive I became a Certified Teacher/Trainer in his Unified Mindfulness system in 2023. While I’ve had the honour of learning from several brilliant teachers over the years, Shinzen’s work continues to most strongly influence my approach to meditation and how I support others.

Regularly meditating helps us suffer less, and with a view to bringing practice to more people, I founded Seeds in early 2023. First as a container to offer in-person retreats at the Monastery of Mount Carmel, then as an online space where amazing, experienced teachers offer free, weekly online meditations sessions to anyone, anywhere, who is interested in learning about meditation or deepening their practice in a welcoming, friendly space.

Please feel welcome to drop into my weekly Seeds sessions, or contact me to discuss 1-1 coaching, private workshops or my in-person meditation retreats taking place in Ontario, Canada.

I look forward to practicing together!
