Amy Pattee Colvin

Amy Pattee Colvin is a transformation and meditation coach with a focus on cultivating compassion for the self and others. She has actively practiced meditation and qigong for over thirty years. She integrates this background with a curriculum called Compassion Cultivation Training that’d been developed at Stanford. In 2011, she began teaching mindfulness and qigong in tech-corporate settings, helping people learn how to better relax and tap into their internal energy (qi) as a way to maintain vitality and a peace of mind.

Amy is well-known for her light-hearted and practical teaching style that uniquely blends Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. She encourages people to integrate mindfulness into daily life and not just when seated at a scheduled time. Amy believes all people are united by a desire to live a peaceful and joyful life. She also believes the best gift to yourself is holding the desire to be a better person and a willingness to work daily towards that goal. Amy enjoys leading international-spiritual adventure tours that explore personal growth juxtaposed with beautiful landscapes and sacred sites. She loves to hike, travel, and lives on Samish Island, WA, with her husband and yellow Labrador.
