Those who have heard me speak at writer’s conferences know that I am an avid meditator. I’ve had an ongoing practice for over 20 years, and it has enhanced all aspects of my life. As a way of giving back to the community at large, I began to teach meditation in 2003 after completing my teacher training with the Training in Power Academy. I have been teaching part-time ever since — in corporate environments, online, and out of my home in North Vancouver, B.C.

Courses Offered
Beginner’s Meditation – Available Online
This introductory course is an eight-week series of 30 – 45 minute sessions, delivered once a week. It’s designed to introduce people to the benefits of meditation, so it has several different breathwork techniques they can use daily and offers a sampling of different types of meditation to try. The aim here is to give you the steps and tools you need to begin a beginner’s meditation practice of your own.
Here’s a breathwork exercise I enjoy, taught by Dr. Andrew Weil:
