About Your Retreat Leaders
Theodore Tsaousidis has been practicing meditation and psycho-spiritual healing for the past thirty years. Born in a rural community in Greece and immersed in a tradition of village healers, he was always innately connected with nature and the spirit world. Consequently, he has been conscious of his spiritual journey from an early age. Over the years, Theodore has deepened this ancient connection. He has studied healing and shamanic teachings in diverse traditions including the Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist tradition. Since 1983, he has been a formal student of Zen Buddhism. He sees meditation and shamanism together as a great alchemy for the healing of self and others. Theodore is blessed to be guided by three teachers, Sensei Sunyana Graef, his foundational and meditation teacher, Zasep Tulku Rinpoche, who guides him in Tibetan healing teachings and Gitta Bechsgaard, his classical yoga teacher. Theodore is also the steward of Snow Lion: The Meditation Shop.
