Li-Anne Tang

Meditation Teacher

Li-Anne Tang, Ph.D., is an experienced spiritual life coach, meditation teacher and psychotherapist. Li-Anne’s life changed dramatically when she found herself in the midst of a dark night of the soul whilst raising her two young children. She searched the world and was fortunate to find wise and compassionate Buddhist meditation masters to guide her on
her journey.

At that time, she had already explored the depths of Western understanding through a Bachelor of Psychology, Master of Science, Ph.D. in neuropsychiatry and postgraduate
training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. She has over a decade of experience working as a psychotherapist and counsellor for patients with cancer and their carers.

Li-Anne’s meditation practice under the tutelage of Sayadaw U Thuzana in the Mahasi tradition led her to the first of her spiritual Awakenings. Other teachers in the Mahasi tradition who have influenced Li-Anne are Patrick Kearney, Guy Armstrong, Ariya Baumann, Venerable Dhammajiva and Bhante Sujiva. Li-Anne has also deeply explored other meditation practices with Sayadaw U Tejaniya (awareness+wisdom), Culadasa (The Mind Illuminated, or TMI), Ajahn Brahm and Shaila Catherine (jhana practices),
Thich Nhat Hanh (Vietnamese Zen) and Shundo Aoyama (Japanese Zen).

Li-Anne was encouraged by Sayadaw U Thuzana, Sayadaw U Tejaniya and Culadasa to share her insights through her unique way of connecting with her students. She now
directly impacts the lives of meditation teachers, experienced meditators and anyone interested in incorporating mindfulness into every aspect of their lives through online
teaching and mentoring programs. Whether you are new to mindfulness or an experienced practitioner, she will help you discover different facets of this practice to access true peace and wisdom, irrespective of what life dishes out to you.

Li-Anne can always be found meditating, whether in her role as a Mindfulness Guide, Spiritual Life Coach, Meditation Teacher, mother, friend, pianist, overland traveller, hiker
or rock climber.
