Tanya Mahar

Ontario, Canada

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 definitely enjoy a happier, more peaceful and fulfilling life, and I 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.

I was first introduced to Shinzen Young’s teachings in 2016, and they had a really positive impact on my practice. So I became a Certified Teacher/Trainer in his Unified Mindfulness system in 2023, and his work continues to 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 bring amazing teachers together to offer retreats, then eventually to offer the free weekly online sessions.

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!
