Theodore Tsaousidis has been practicing meditation and psycho-spiritual healing for the past thirty years. Born in a rural community in Greece and immersed in a tradition of village healers, he has always been innately connected with nature and spirit. His healing and shamanic teachings include those in the Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist tradition. Since 1983, he has been a formal student of Zen Buddhism. Theodore offers meditation and healing workshops and retreats in the Toronto and Owen Sound areas. He is also a facilitator of Awakening the Dreamer Symposiums.
Adele Brown MSW has recently retired from the OCSWSSW but will continue part-time as a Mindfulness Counsellor and Teacher in the Owen Sound area. She also does telephone and Skype consultations in Canada and the US. Using her Mindfulness Training, she assists those dealing with anxiety, depression, stress and bereavement. Within this framework, Adele takes a holistic approach and understands that a “spiritual” component is not separate from life’s crises, difficulties or goals. Adele is sensitive to different faith systems including Buddhist philosophy and psychology, Christianity, and Earth-centered spirituality. She believes that every individual is innately connected to their source of healing but through life’s conditioning and experiences that connection is veiled. Her practice reflects and honours the conviction that through support and guidance we can move toward the realization of that healing source.
