    yOUR tRIP lEADER

    Melinda Johnston, M.Msc.

    International Author, Inspirational Speaker, Spiritual Philosopher and Coach, Intuitive Healer, Wellness Consultant 


    Melinda has over 30 years of study and practice in religious culture, practical philosophical, metaphysical sciences and understanding for the historical “webs” of human history, which have impacted most of our modern religions and spiritual practices.


    She has created a variety of alternative methods for celebrating life and seeing the “sacred” in simplicity. Her knowledge offers students and clients a unique insight into mindful inner dialogue, which in turn honors and expands one’s innate wisdom and allows for one’s perfect state of wellness to exist.


    Because she is well versed in multiple facets of religious and sacred philosophy, including the Eastern philosophies of Buddhism and Vedanta, Metaphysical consciousness, and the Science of Yoga, her gentle teaching method allows one’s self-knowledge to expand to deeper level, naturally.


    As owner of The Buddhi Institute her goal is to teach practical methods and programs that incorporate mindfulness, along with other ancient wisdoms, for the integration of mind and spirit so a sense of complete wellness arises almost effortlessly into one’s day to day living.


    Her teaching process is simple, kind, nurturing, and Absolute.  From personal experience, and in years of guiding others, she knows:

    “We all have this wisdom within. Each of us have the Inner Guru that is waiting to Awaken.”

    Your heart is the size of an ocean. Go find yourself in its hidden depths. ~ Rumi
