A unique journey

Imagine coming from a family of five Olympic althletes. A national level athlete herself, she understood the power of the mind over the body for performance. Her own illness shifted her interest to the vast potential of the mind to heal. She spent 7 years as a Tibetan Buddhist nun in Australia and India, after 7 years at the Findhorn Foundation in Scotland.

After returning to Burlington, Canada, Dekyi-Lee founded Lamp On The Path, which offers self-healing workshops and facilitator training in Transformative Mindfulness, 5 Tibetan Yogas, 16 Guidelines for Life and Clarifying Life Purpose. She was the Director of Lama Yeshe Ling Tibetan Buddhist Group and The Centre for Compassion and Wisdom from 2006 to 2010.

She is on the international board and faculty of the Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom in UK, whose patron is His Holiness The Dalai Lama. They offer Essential Education programs and resources to help people of all cultures to become kind and wise to create a peaceful world.

Most recently she has been training health, social service, education and medical professions to integrate her simple transformative methods into their work.
