David Wakeling teaches mindfulness and meditation courses for all levels of experience. He is also a certified Shiatsu Bodywork teacher and practitioner based in Nelson, Aotearoa/New Zealand.
He lived as a Theravadin Buddhist Monk for 18 years in Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, helping to build monastaries and to engage with local communities. During this time he practiced and taught Insight (Vipassana) Meditation and Mindfulness techniques to support people in daily life, as a stress reduction technique, and for grief and trauma recovery.
David trained as a Shiatsu Bodywork practitioner before leaving the monastic order in 2004 to share his knowledge and experience with a wider community.
He currently teaches mindfulness and meditation for Mindfulness Works and for the Cancer Society, along with regular weekly classes and seasonal retreats.
“My vision is to encourage well-being … physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.”
