Your Facilitator is Karl Baker
Karl Baker is thethe founder of Mindfulness Works. Over 40,000 people have completed the Introduction to Mindfulness and Meditation course he created.
I moved to paradise (Noosa) over 6 years ago from New Zealand. I have been practising meditation for over 22 years.
10 years agao, I established Mindfulness Works, the largest mindfulness meditation training organisation in Australia and New Zealand. I lead a team of over fifty mindfulness meditation educators, including psychotherapists, counsellors and MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) teachers as part of the Mindfulness Works organisation.
My approach to mindfulness is centred around his own exploration of what it means to be radically self-accepting. I love combining my love of meditation and walking by offering these events.
“Karl has a gentle and reassuring message that we are all okay, exactly as we are, in this moment, no matter what is going on in life. Not only is radical acceptance explained, Karl has a way of personal sharing that suggests that ‘not good enough’ and comparison are untruths we tell ourselves. He easily infused a message of oneness, okay-ness and we’re alright as we are in the workshop. During the session, I felt at ease, seen, heard and supported along with the other group members. Feeling enough takes practise and certainly Karl is showing us the way. Thank you, Karl.” – Michelle Ryan
