Jodie Gien

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 and continuing her studies with the Inca Medicine School in Peru. Jodie offers public and corporate shamanic healing and mindfulness retreats, despacho and fire ceremonies, rites of passage ceremonies, one-on-one energy medicine healing, mindfulness training and sound healing.

Mindfulness clients include Microsoft, Apple, Atlassian, the Commonwealth Bank, BT, Westpac, ING (UK), Aurecon, NSW College of Law, NSW Transport, FilePro Legal, McGrath Estate Agents, Melbourne University Business School, Circle In, Dress for Success, Sense Event, CHE Proximity, Blue Mountains City Council, SCEGGS, Hills Grammar, Australian Independent Schools, Blue Mountains Government Schools, Bondi Public School, Masada College, Champagnat Catholic College and the Australian Netball Association. Jodie has presented at many legal and corporate events and writes articles on mindfulness for FilePro Legal, Wellbeing Magazine and other publications.

Jodie is devoted to this work and it's potential for deep healing, both individually and collectively.
