wHAKATŪ NELSON

Pure Meditation & Wellness

Pure Meditation & Wellness in Nelson came into being as a result of visiting in 2021 and feeling a strong intuitive pull to relocate here, continuing our life’s work in this wonderful and welcoming community.

We are located at 386 Trafalgar Street South in the heart of Nelson where we hold Pure Meditation Courses, Retreats, Workshops, and our Counselling & Healing Clinic. We also operate on an in-town clinic and studio for yoga at Osteopathy Nelson in Montgomery Square.

We are thrilled about our location in the quiet, park-like neighborhood up the hill behind the cathedral. Less than five minutes walk to the Cathedral and town or in the other direction, the historic Melrose House and Fairfield Park. And just a wee bit further will find you walking the glorious Grampians Reserve with its stunning views.

Living on the green side of town with old tree-lined streets, it is a delight to hear the wonderous sounds of Tuis and Bellbirds. It is the perfect blend of being ideally located in central Nelson with the feel of nature and beauty all around.

Nau mai, Haere mai ~ welcome!

Pure Meditation & Wellness in Whakatū Nelson is part of a global network of teachers, counsellors, coaches & healers.

Our journey of Pure Meditation, Yoga, and Healing began 25 years ago and proved to be so personally transformational that we were soon underway with training as teachers and therapists. Having worked full-time in this profession for 20 years, we bring a wealth of experience, credentials and professionalism, but above all, a great love and caring for all.

The training we received and our continuing professional development has held us to the highest standards and we are fully insured.

Our passion is service ~ offering healing space, teachings and tools that provide people with the empowerment and resources to find their own inner peace and wisdom.

I love an adventure and feel that life is the big adventure, and that learning to flow and harmonize with life has been my big lesson. The greatest boon on my journey came with the fulfilling of a deep yearning to find an in-depth Meditation and a Guru. From this, I have come to understand and experience that life gives you everything you need if you can trust and surrender to it.

I grew up in rural Wairarapa on a farm, have a background in art and spent several years overseas and travelling.

My latest adventure was to move to sunny Whakatū Nelson. Previously I worked at a Self Realization Centre in Christchurch for 18 years. I have a particular passion for the practice and teaching of Pure Meditation.

It is exciting to approach each day afresh, knowing that no two days and no two people are the same. The strong foundation of my practices have been a steadying ballast through this metamorphic age that we live in. I feel blessed to be living in a time of opportunity and abundance of spiritual resources for myself and for others.

Since a young age, I felt a deep desire to help people and the planet. This led to a degree in Psychology and Environmental Studies from Michigan State University. However, it has been my own practice of daily Pure Meditation and the professional level of training under the guidance of my Guru Mata Yogananda that has given me the attunement and resources to fulfil this lifelong dream.

I am also enjoying the challenge of learning Te Reo Māori and being stretched at Toastmasters.
