Manish Mallas
Modern Monk
The ultimate purpose of mindfulness is to ‘wake-up’ – to have clarity around who you are, and to live in and contribute from the ongoing peaceful state that comes with this understanding. This is called ‘finishing' your practice. Having accomplished this makes Manish one of the world’s most experienced mindfulness teachers.
Manish grew-up in California, in an Indian family with a direct mindfulness lineage stretching back 2,500 years to when his family were students of the Buddha. As a child, Manish was selected by his family to carry on the lineage. Since then, for over forty years, he has been practicing meditation, breath-work and yoga.
Manish has developed a unique approach to mindfulness that integrates the traditional practice with modern science. He studied evolutionary biology at university, which informs the framework of his teaching.
Manish has taught thousands of people — from CEOs to 2nd graders — to understand and manage their minds in order to enjoy happier, healthier, more productive and fulfilling lives. He has a passion for making the ancient practice of mindfulness relevant and practical to our modern lives.
Simone Peric
Wellbeing & Performance Coach
Hi! My name is Simone. I'm on the modern monk path, and I am here to help you on yours. If you interested in ‘inner work’ – personal and professional growth – and becoming a better version of yourself – you are in the right place.
I am a wellbeing and performance coach – whose practice is deeply based in the modern monk method of meditation & mindfulness, neuroscience, positive psychology and mind/body practices. Whether you feel stuck or living on autopilot, lack purpose, have come out of a failed relationship or want more from your career – I can help you build the tools and habits to ‘wake up’ and make more conscious decisions about your life.
Through a deeper understanding of yourself and your mind, you will create space for new perspectives and develop healthier physical, emotional, and mental states. The pain of the past or fear of the future will not grip you in the same way – you will discover in yourself a place of balance, clarity and strength, and you will show up for yourself and the world in a very different way.
It won't be easy😊!! You will need to get out of your comfort zone and learn to take ‘radical personal responsibility’ – but you will find the rewards enormous – it really is the most valuable work you will do in your life.
If you're ready to take the next step, take a deep breath and let’s begin! I work with individuals, teams and leaders. For further information, or to schedule a chat, please contact me at simone@modernmonk.au.
