A bit about me

I’m Sukhasiddhi…

I’ve been practising Buddhism, meditation and yoga since 1995. Once I graduated from Glasgow Art School, I trained full time for 9 years and was ordained into the Triratna Buddhist Order in 2004. I was given the Sanskrit name Sukhasiddhi (she who has the attainment of ease). I’m named after a medieval Tibetan woman brewer who became a dakini - enlightened sky dancer. 

Since 1995 I’ve spent one to four weeks of each year participating in or co-leading Buddhist retreats, with a few years off for breastfeeding babies! My daily practice of yoga and meditation is the bedrock of my healing work. My main meditation teacher has been Paramananda, a member of the Triratna Order. Since 2020 I have worked with Buddhist psychotherapist Bruce Tift, practising how to cultivate unconditional embodiment, unconditional immediacy and unconditional kindness.

I’m naturally psychic and the practice of meditation has deepened my connection with the unseen energy world. I have been fortunate to receive instruction from the healers Elizabeth St John and Marja Vraets-Guliker. 

I use my claircognizance to connect with people’s own spiritual guides and to ask them questions about which path will bring about the greatest good. This can be as concrete as, “what will this new job bring me?” Or as esoteric as, “what past life is creating this current dynamic in my family?”

I use my experience of Buddhist practice to offer tools that will support you to actually change your life. I always suggest daily home practices which will help your changes to take root and grow. As well as exploring tender ground, I hope that we will laugh together and that you will feel seen and warmly supported.

 …that feels like a blessing.


 
I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible;
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance,
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom,
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.
— Dawna Markova
 
 

The cave you fear to enter
holds the treasures that you seek
