Hello
Welcome to my website! I’m glad you’re here. My name is Tegan, and for the past 10 years, I have dedicated myself to being an awareness and mindfulness mentor, guiding my clients on their journey toward a happier and more fulfilling life. Over this past decade I have also served as the Executive Officer of The Centre for Western Mindfulness, supporting others as they learn and share with their own networks, about the transformational power of enhancing awareness and living mindfully.
My Story
After the birth of my second child, I found myself navigating a dark and challenging period of depression that, at the time, seemed insurmountable. I had transitioned from a laid back, generous, happy, helpful partner and friend into a resentful beast that was full of rage. I was angry, frustrated, burnt out, irrationally emotional, short tempered with my children, never pleased with my husbands efforts, and exceptionally self destructive in terms of my inner thoughts about myself. I simply didn't recognise myself anymore.
This experience was the greatest thing that could have happened to me. It was a turning point in my life that ended up being a transformative blessing. While I had committed years to exploring and contemplating the teachings of several significant spiritual teachers, this moment became the catalyst that unlocked insights that had previously eluded me. Through the depths of my struggles, I gained a deep understanding of the complexities of human suffering and developed clarity about the spiritual paths we each navigate. Today, I am genuinely grateful for my challenges and for the many teachers who have illuminated my journey, equipping me with the empathy and wisdom to support not only myself but also others on their own beautiful and intricate journeys.
​
I am thankful everyday for the ongoing wisdom this world has to offer, and I am delighted to be able to share this wisdom with others who seek it.
