Online, In PersonAbout Me
I am a British Hongkonger, bilingual in English and Cantonese. I began meditating while working in Japan in 2010. I am passionate about bringing mindfulness, compassion and relational practices to wider communities especially those with multicultural and diaspora backgrounds. I trained to teach as a commitment to increasing representations of people like myself. whose heritage, ethnic background and life trajectory have been underrepresented in certain mindfulness learning and teaching spaces.
Our groups are about co-creating spaces and communities of practice for deepening connection, understanding and belonging while honouring and respecting heritage and ancestry. Practicing in communities relationally and individually, we learn alongside each other and move towards individual and collective flourishing and healing.
I have a background in second language teaching, medical communications and biomedical research. I practice insight meditation, compassion practices, Insight Dialogue, pilates and chi-gong.
I offer Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) and Deeper Mindfulness: Feeling Tone Frame by Frame courses, thematic (half)-day workshops and practice groups mostly online to the general public. I am also trained to teach Interpersonal Mindfulness Program (IMP) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) courses.
