Hi,
I'm Maree
I'm Maree
I am a mother, spiritual teacher, secondary teacher and health professional
with over thirty years experience working with people
in the areas of rehabilitation and education.
I am working as a
teacher of yoga, spirituality and meditation.
I have been studying the Indian spiritual traditions, including,
Buddhism and yoga for over ten years.
I have had fun putting these wise teachings
into practice in my life
as a wife, mother, teacher, friend,
facilitator, public speaker and organiser of events and workshops
to promote wellness, confidence, happiness and peace of mind..
I have been teaching a weekly Dharma group for over 4 years.
Our group meets each week to study Indian spiritual texts and
we share practical ways to apply this wisdom to our daily lives
to promote happiness and meaning.
I also have fun coordinating a small not for profit business,
which raises funds for overseas projects, including a rehabilitation centre
and women's refuge in Sri Lanka
I certainly have not always been in the position
to help others find happiness and meaning in their lives.
At many times in my life I have been unhappy and unsure.
It is thanks to
My wonderful wise teachers,
who committed so generously to
teach, support and guide me in this fun,
and at times challenging, transformative process
And thanks also to,
my family and friends (including you)
for their love, support and encouragement.
I grew up in Melbourne.
I was the 'very responsible and somewhat bossy' eldest sister to two younger brothers.
I am very grateful to my family for a happy, healthy childhood
and the wonderful opportunities they provided for me.
During my teens I developed some unhelpful habits,
including a whole 'shy, not good enough story'
which at times involved comparing myself to others, unrealistic expectations,
unhappiness, fear of failure academically and low self-confidence.
I was often not so comfortable in my own skin as a teenager and adult.
I am so thankful for my teachers and the spiritual study I have done to
give me the practical tools to allow me
transform such unhelpful habits,
into more helpful ones to promote
a happier, more peaceful, connected and confident me .
After school I trained as an Occupational Therapist and worked in rehabilitation.
I then went on to do training in,
secondary school education, spirituality, yoga and meditation.
More specifically, I have had extensive training over the last ten years
in the Indian spiritual traditions, including Buddhism, yoga and meditation.
I am married and have a family of four children who are now all adults.
Motherhood and teaching have provided me with
many wonderful challenges and opportunities
to practice this wisdom I have integrated
as a result of my training,
especially in Buddhism and yoga.
Being a mother and teacher is the best -
I am so thankful to the Fantastic Fowler Family,
my teachers and my many wonderful students and friends.
I have fun spending time with family and friends,
teaching, camping, being in the outback, tap dancing, cooking, home crafts and
teaching and doing yoga.
I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and wisdom
This allows me to find
meaning, happiness and purpose in my life,
to practice kindness to myself and others
and be of benefit and a
more positive force in the world.
I would love you to join me in
leaning simple, practical wisdom tools
to promote
happiness, peace of mind, confidence and connection.
It would be
fun to share with you
