About Wendy Nash
Wendy Nash has a 4-year somatic psychotherapy diploma. Her Bachelor of Psychology Honors thesis studied the effects of loving-kindness meditation on prosocial behavior, and she’s been practicing loving-kindness and other meditations for almost 20 years. These inform her work with clients who are interested in learning how to integrate various meditation practices in daily life. These qualifications and experiences have been profoundly positive on her wellbeing and relationships and turned around the negatives of difficult early life experiences.
Informal work includes:
- 20 years of meditation practices in different traditions and countries, mostly focused on lovingkindness but also insight (vipassana) because kindness has shown to be the key to mindfulness's efficacy and it's this that leads to better relationships and wellbeing.
- Personal psychotherapy to understand ourselves and others more clearly.
- Strong engagement with understanding what narcissism is, when it causes problems, when it's useful and how we can integrate the unhelpful bits, and why we all have an ego (even fully enlightened people have an ego!).
- Communication skills, especially how to listen deeply and pay heed to question syntax.
