About Me

I began my journey with meditation when I was six years old, but I didn’t return to the practice until I was aged 30 and strung out with stress. Like so many others, I was burning the candle at both ends and living between pockets of temporary happiness. I knew there was more to life and I was convinced fulfilment existed, because I’d felt glimmers of it, but I didn’t know how to sustain it. Vedic meditation changed everything for me. It is a simple, natural and effortless technique which instantly had a profound effect on my state of mind and sense of self. As I began to shed the layers of years of accumulated stress, I began to sleep better, eat better, and feel infinitely better. 

Meditation and the ancient body of wisdom known as the Vedas brought me a new way of looking at the world and moving through it. Life became more effortless, full of flow: good things started happening. I felt like I was travelling the right way down the river. Even the bumps didn’t feel quite so big, or take as long to recover from. Decisions felt easy because they became based on what feels deeply right and what brings charm, joy and warmth. Uncertainty started to take on a new form - it began to feel like possibility. I lost rigid attachment to outcomes, and started to enjoy the journey. I became more self-sufficient; instead of seeking fulfilment (and never really finding it) elsewhere, I turned to myself, and became responsible for my own happiness. 

After four years of practising Vedic meditation and feeling the richness of its benefits, I decided to become a Vedic meditation teacher. My journey involved over 3000 hours of study and several months of rigorous training in the foothills of the Himalayas, under the tutelage of Thom Knoles - Maharishi Vyasanand Saraswati - the world’s pre-eminent master of Vedic meditation. 

I truly believe that everyone deserves to lead a full, expansive and happy life, and it is within reach. I chose to teach Vedic meditation because it’s the easiest and most sustainable way I know of getting there.
