Sherida Pengel

I came into contact with meditation through mindfulness training. I already regularly went on retreats in Catholic monasteries and participating in my first vipassana retreat took me to a deeper level. The result was a study of Buddhist philosophy and teachings and a pilgrimage through India and Nepal, which led me to the Mahasi Sayadaw method.

By providing mindfulness training, meditation courses and workshops, I teach others about meditation in an accessible and accessible way. I connect with various religions and philosophies and I bring compassion and kindness to my guidance. In this way I help people find compassion and kindness within themselves. I sincerely hope that my contributions here will also be appreciated 30NOW support this.
