Hi… thank you for visiting my website.

I have been practicing meditation since studying fine-art painting at Bristol Art College in the late 1980s. During this formative period of my life I was introduced to the Serene Reflection Meditation tradition during an intensive retreat at Throssel Hole Buddhist Abbey, in Northumberland.

I have subsequently studied many different forms of meditation and my daily practice informs everything in my life, including my teaching and creative work.

Selection of Meditation workshops

  • A workshop on ‘Stress Management and Building Resilience’ for The Health Information and Quality Authority, Ireland (HIQA).

  • ATU - Atlantic Technology University - School of Catering:

    A Workshop For Student Chefs - ‘Mindful Cooking: Discover your creative voice through an exploration of the senses.’

  • ‘Mindful Meditation Workshop’ with Allergan Pharmaceuticals Ireland.

  • Various Meditation Workshops with Spina Bifida Hydrocephalus Ireland (SBHI).

  • 4 Mindful Meditation Workshops with Cambus Medical. Baile an tSagairt, Sheeaunroe, Co. Galway.

  • A number of mindful meditation workshops for Wayfair, Galway Ireland.

  • 2010 - 2023: Regular Retreats and Classes in Galway City and County.

I have also written professionally about health, well-being and mindful meditation, with work published in both national and local newspapers and magazines - including the Irish Times. My current research explores the intersection between the contemplative arts, meditation and health.
