Elizabeth Faria has studied with Gregory Kramer and the Insight Dialogue Teaching Community since 2008.
She began practicing vipassana on long retreats meditation in 1996. She took a two-year break from work to dedicate time to meditation practice in India, the US, Australia, and Thailand.
Elizabeth is a graduate of the Australian Association of Buddhist Counsellors and Psychotherapists Professional Training Course in Buddhism and Psychotherapy. She is trained as a psychologist with 30 years of both meditation experience and practice as a psychotherapist.
She is deeply moved by the Dharma and its potential to bring ease and wisdom through solitary and relational meditation practice. She is also very inspired by how direct and accessible Insight Dialogue’s guidelines are to bring the dharma alive for experienced and new meditators and show a way to encompass the whole lives as the path to waking up.
She teaches retreats, workshops, and online programs in Australia, Brazil, Europe, Asia, Malaysia and the US. Elizabeth lives in New South Wales, Australia.
