Welcome!

I’m Angie Bucu, a MBSR Teacher, Certified Mindfulness Instructor, Mindfulness Teacher Trainer, entrepreneur, and a good friend and partner to others. 

I am delighted to be working with and sharing the benefits of mindfulness practices across the community.

I am offering Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in groups both online and in-person. I design and lead workshops, short courses and practice groups for clients, customized to their needs. These clients include companies, schools, teacher and parent groups, and non-government support groups. 

I also teach mindfulness to our younger community sharing the popular Mindfulness Matters courses (Method Eline Snel programs) including Mindfulness for Children and Mindfulness for Teenagers. 

My work with Eline Snel and the Academy for Mindful Teaching (AMT) extends to offering teacher training and as AMT’s Licensed Partner in Hong Kong and Asia. 

I am passionate about the beneficial effects of using mindfulness and meditation in our daily lives and helping others find the opportunity to transform their lives. My work is to be a friend and guide to support others as they begin the discovery of what it means to turn toward and be present for their lives as they unfold moment to moment. The potential of such transformation is available to anyone at any age.

My own experience assures me that through regular but compassionate mindfulness practice, self-awareness and self-regulation can flourish and we become better at taking care of ourselves and others. 

Mindfulness – training our attention and building present moment awareness with curiosity but without judgment – offers us an opportunity to pause the busyness, to observe and accept what is happening in the here and now, and offer compassion when it’s needed.  I am passionate about teaching and sharing, with young people and adults alike, mindfulness practices that can help them cope in this world often filled with distractions, to enjoy more fulfilling and meaningful lives. Training our attention on the present moment with curiosity, kindness, and compassion may be relatively simple, but requires well-informed and experienced guidance and practice to cultivate positive habits of mind.

In addition to my formal training to teach, I have undertaken various mindfulness programs including MBSR, MBCT, Cultivating Emotional Balance, childrens yoga teacher training. I have attended and organize long-term retreats involving mindfulness practice, self-development and knowledge building. Prior to my formal mindfulness training, I completed a Master of Wellness with RMIT University (Australia), after whihc I was part of the teaching team for the MindBody Wellness course at RMIT. This position also led me to a new opportunity; to research the introduction of mindfulness into a school environment through the eyes and experiences of two counsellors at a school in New Zealand. The final published article is available and the preliminary report which includes the findings from the students’ perspectives is also an interesting read.

The most practical thing we can achieve in any kind of work is insight into what is happening inside of us as we do it. The more familiar we are with our inner terrain, the more surefooted our teaching – and living – becomes.
