Ethan Pollock

Ethan has been facilitating mindfulness groups and retreats since his early twenties. He was one of the founding members of Wake Up London, a still thriving community of young meditators (aged 18-35). He spent five years training at Plum Village with the internationally recognised mindfulness teacher & Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. He currently offers retreats and classes on mindfulness and Buddhism at The Barn Retreat, Mindful Living Retreats and local meditation groups around the UK. His teaching helps people touch more calm and ease in their everyday lives by bringing awareness and appreciation to simple daily activities, retreatants especially love his guided meditations!
