Deanna Burkett
Deanna Burkett was introduced to meditation in 2007 during a one-month residential yoga teacher training at Kripalu. This month of intensive practice established bodily awareness as a way of meeting suffering, and this changed her life. Deanna first practiced Insight Dialogue in 2015 during an 8-week online course.

Deanna is a psychotherapist, Certified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) teacher, and Kripalu Yoga teacher. She is in the current Insight Dialogue Teacher Development Cohort and is also training as a Somatic Experiencing (SE) practitioner. She lives in northwestern Oklahoma.
