MINDFULNESS
Katie has been practicing mindfulness in her own life for over 16 years. She studies in the tradition of Zen Buddhist Master Thich Nhat Hanh, who was proposed for a Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King in 1967.
Katie continues to deepen her own practice by regularly attending retreats as well as the local Sanghas that flourish under the guidance of the Community of Interbeing charity, which represents Thich Nhat Hanh in the UK. These Sanghas are groups of people from a wide range of faith backgrounds, who aspire to develop peace in themselves and in the world through the practice of mindful living. She is therefore able to teach from her personal experience, including using mindfulness during being treated for and subsequently cured of cancer in 2015.
