ABOUT ME

Mindfulness and MSCTeacher

DipION, mBANT, CNHC, BAMBA

I love to teach Mindfulness and Self-Compassion programmes, whether 121 or in a zoom group setting.  A good place to start is to simply talk and see what you need.  Contact me, if you feel the time is right for you.  Below is my Bio, as a way of getting a feel of how I work.

Mary Walker, BA, DipION, HCA Certified Health Coach, Mindfulness and Self-Compassion Teacher is dedicated to finding the strengths within all individuals that she works with, whether through teaching, mentoring or coaching.

She embarked on this journey in the 1980s when Health became a priority and a love of learning took her down the path of a degree in psychology and teaching A level psychology, diplomas in nutrition, clinical hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching and recognition that transforming lives was a possibility.

With extensive training and experience in teaching Mindfulness and Self-Compassion, her intention is to keep cultivating this area of her life as a job she loves and as a way of life.  She is currently studying and researching trauma-sensitive approaches when teaching clients or students.

As Head Tutor with HCA, keeping her students inspired and on track, whilst keeping a life/study/work balance is what motivates her.

In her own life, from a teenager, she has been driven by the desire for adventure, challenge and diversity.  For the last 10 years she has trekked in the highest mountain ranges in the world, including the Himalayas and Karakoram and been to Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Iran and Mongolia.  One highlight stands out:  meeting a young shepherdess in the Upper Dolpo area of Tibet and having an instant connection that was beyond language, culture and age.

Today she is immersed in her role within HCA and her own Mindfulness business with private and corporate clients.
