My story, the team, and how this all came to be...
As a teacher, researcher, presenter and writer, my goal is to share the science of ancient practices as a tool for healing.
Due to the dramatic impact these practices have had in my own life, the most important thing to me has become sharing them with you!
I am currently dedicated to scientifically investigating and sharing the benefits of mantra meditation and love sharing both the art and science of this technique through workshops, seminars and writing for people of all backgrounds and experiences.​
​
My Story started with depression...
My journey into meditation and sound-based practices began over 15 years ago with a diagnosis of severe depression. At the time, I was mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually unwell. I was desperately searching for healing...
I discovered mantra meditation...
I was doing a lot of Yoga classes but had never tried mantra meditation (chanting) until one of teachers recommended that I try it ... I then took myself off to yoga studios and temples (of every kind!) to chant wherever and whenever I could.  I chanted with Buddhists, Sikhs, Hindus, prayed with Muslims, learned the Christian rosary and lived in ashrams around the world...
Health...
I found that I got so many benefits from sound meditation practices that I became scientifically curious... I did a 1 year Yoga Teacher Training course and then a Psychology degree which led to an Honours degree, a Masters degree, a PhD and finally post-doctoral research in chanting! I now dedicate most of my time to sharing and researching the practices that changed my life...
Nobody does it on their own... This is our wonderful team
