About Me

I completed my Mindfulness Based Living Course teacher training in 2017, but I have been with the Mindfulness Association since 2011. I have completed seven year long courses of study (Mindfulness, Compassion, Insight, teacher training MBLC and CBLC, Supervision and Mindfulness for Life).  With supervision, I have taught the MBLC to over 60 diverse groups in the public, private and third sectors of Scotland. These have been in-person and via Zoom. In 2017, I developed a Fife wide mindfulness in schools project (teaching children, teachers and parents) . This was adopted by Fife Education and supported by Fife CAMHS. In 2019, I played a key role in the launch of Mindful Nation Scotland at the Scottish Parliament. In 2022 & 2023, in person I delivered the MBLC to clients recovering from addiction and trauma. In 2024, I delivered the MBLC to unpaid carers. I also published an article on the impact of mindfulness and compassion training on mens perception of masculinity. I regularly offer supervision to MBLC mindfulness teachers.
