I live in Dublin, Ireland. I have practised mindfulness since the late 1980s, have taught mindfulness throughout Ireland and in London, have demonstrated mindfulness on ITV, RTE and TV3 and have had books on mindfulness published in several countries and languages. I provide public and corporate courses. My books include  Kindfulness – be a true friend to yourself with mindful self compassion. My aim is to make mindfulness and self compassion easily accessible to people in their everyday lives.
