Mindful Future Project

Jodie Gien is a committed mindfulness teacher and shamanic energy medicine practitioner with a longstanding personal practice of her own. Having grown up with Vispassana meditation, degrees in Law and Psychology from UNSW, and committed to being of service, she led a team for many years as a Human Rights and Discrimination Lawyer, Mediator and Trainer at the Australian Human Rights Commission before leaving the legal profession to deepen her personal practice.

Passionate about fostering human potential through mindfulness, she trained as an Executive Coach with Moreton Executive Coaching and Results Coaching and as a Mindfulness Teacher with Oxford University’s Mindfulness in Schools Project, Nature Care College and the esteemed Gawler Foundation in Australia.  For the next ten years Jodie worked extensively with legal and corporate organisations, schools, athletes and not for profits, to teach the skills of mindfulness and develop the self-awareness underpinning the qualities of mindful resilience and leadership.

On a quest to further expand her insight and understanding of spiritual practice, she was ultimately drawn to Peru to study Shamanic Energy Medicine with the Q'ero, descendants of the Incan Shamans of the High Andes, completing her training at the Four Winds Society in Chile. Jodie offers public and corporate shamanic healing and mindfulness retreats, despacho and fire ceremonies, rites of passage ceremonies, one-on-one shamanic healing, mindfulness training and sound healing.
