About Trish, MMDC founder
Mindfulness is a valuable skill for navigating the ups and downs of life. Meditation is just one of the many ways to practice mindfulness.
As a meditation teacher, I'm on a mission to show that meditation - the practice of focusing your attention in a particular way - doesn't have to be about sitting still with eyes closed. I help people look beyond traditional meditation methods and discover hands-on ways to practice mindfulness minus the “woo-woo stuff”.
​
I'm also passionate about making mindfulness more accessible to more people. I advocate the concept of "equitable mindfulness" by teaching secular techniques that cater to different needs and preferences, as well as budgets and schedules. ​​​
