Spiritual Director: Michael Turner  Email  
Notes and Events:

Being Peacefully Buddhist Dharma Coaching and Consulting is all about integrity, compassion, and helping others; and it's about delivering the richness and depth of Eastern Buddhism to busy and stressed-out Western clients.  Whether it's taking the fundamentals of the Western approach to Mindfulness and recoupling it with the foundations of its Buddhist origins to achieve results Meditation alone struggles to produce; or working with business owners and leaders to enhance their businesses ethically, compassionately, and sustainably; the services found here are offered to help you realise your goals.

Being Peacefully's typical clients generally include:

  • Business leaders and working professionals who are looking for new perspectives and new solutions to old problems from an experienced Buddhist advisor, dharma practitioner, and senior business leader.
  • Buddhists/dharma practitioners, both secular and non-secular, who are looking to address challenges or questions regarding their practice or understanding and are looking to learn, adjust, hone, and refocus with skilled one-on-one dharma coaching and guidance.
  • Western mindful-meditation practitioners who have some exposure to Buddhist teachings and are interested in exploring how some of the practices found in the Buddhism can help them more effectively and efficiently realise the many-touted benefits of meditation that they struggle to attain.
  • Individuals looking to course-correct various parts of their understanding or their practice and/or would like guidance how to better apply the concepts and tools of mindfulness, meditation, or Buddhism into their personal or professional lives and relationships. This can be about the practical application of what you mostly already know to experience a real sense of relief from troubling thoughts, feelings, or emotions you experience in response to outside problems.

The Being Peacefully approach uniquely emphasises the development of your personal sense of happiness, safety, and peace-of-mind to generate a transformation in how you interact with the world around you, and
consequentially, the how the world interacts with you.
