Your teacher Ola Lundström

I am a Swedish mindfulness teacher engaged in mental health and environmental sustainability. I live near to a nature reserve outside Stockholm.

I started meditating in the buddhist tradition in my late teens and have practiced and taught meditation and mindfulness for over 40 years. I am a member of the Triratna Buddhist Order, ordained as Aryaka.

I am trained in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) by Professor Mark Williams and Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) by Camilla Sköld and Anita Olsson. I have professional experience from school, social services, business, organisations and psychiatry, where I have worked with the prevention of stress and mental illness.

In 2024 I completed an education in Ecopsychology with Swedish teachers Pella Thiel, Hans Landeström and Henrik Hellgren. This course in Mindfulness Based Ecological Resilience started as my individual exam task in Ecopsychology.
