Vinod Ravindranathan

Vinod has been practicing meditation for over 30 years.  In 1994 he was trained in Vipassana at the Wat Ram Poeng monastery in Chiang Mai, Thailand.  Although not a buddhist monk,  he accomplished the same degree of training.  A few years later he earned his Mindfulness Teacher Training from Bangor University in Wales.  He currently facilitates the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) 8 Week Course in London.

In the earlier part of his career, he worked in the corporate world as a lawyer before joining various non-profit organisations including; the UNHCR and Amnesty International Secretariat in London.  In Amnesty International he helped people dealing with sexual & gender equality, migrant & refugee rights, compassionate care for drug addicts and animal welfare.

Through his career Vinod has grown a big heart and enjoys sharing the essence of Franciscan spirituality.
