The curiosity got me to university where I discovered the discipline of psychology encouraged my questioning into everything. I first registered as a psychologist in Qld in 1991 and have worked in child protection, juvenile justice, domestic violence and organisational settings in Queensland and in the UK.
Jon Kabat-Zinn describes Mindfulness as "Paying attention in a particular way; on purpose and non-judgmentally, to the unfolding of experience moment to moment". This is mind and heart training.
Developing purposefulness or regulating our attention to a particular part of our experience, like the rise and fall of the breathing process, requires persistence and great patience to return to our anchor when our discursive mind pulls us into endless thinking about past and future.This present moment is all there actually is; otherwise it's memory of the past and contemplation of the future.

I integrate Psychology training and many years of Buddhist Dharma mindfulness study and practice together with Yoga teaching and practice and dance practice. In my psychology work, I primarily use evidence-based Acceptance & Commitment Training/Therapy (ACT) and Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) and additionally, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Amidst the pressures of modern living, taking time out for retreat offers a direct pathway to discover inner peace and cultivate a boundless heart. Most retreats I teach take the form of sitting, standing, moving and lying down Mindfulness and other meditation practices drawn from a Secular Buddhist Dharma approach.
