I have lived a full life immersed in the joyous and interconnected world of young children, deep nature connection and embodied mindfulness, for which I have immense gratitude.
I have learned over decades of being with young friends to really slow down and listen deeply, to them and to my own inner dialogue and challenges, making parenting and teaching a profound path of spiritual work and acceptance.
A deepening Buddhist practice has guided me and when a debilitating paralysis event altered my path from teaching and exploring in the forests it naturally led to exploring my inner world and a desire to continually shed layers of attachment, both physical and mental.
Now, with the support of my beautiful family, living a wandering life in a Kuti-on-wheels, with no fixed address and limited physical belongings, I have a rich landscape of practice before me.
My current work is finding a balance of seclusion, study and practice based on early Buddhist teachings, understanding presence as a mother of olders, and curating a life’s exploration of what it means to accompany children.
I am most interested in studying and practicing the teachings of the Buddha as close to the time of his teaching as possible, which means learning the Pali language.
Playfully I still enjoy being in the creek, building forts, and getting geeky with Notion databases of the Buddhist Pāli Canon and language.
