Dr Laura Patryas

Laura is a spiritual teacher, IFS therapist and nonduality scholar with a PhD in Psychophysics. She teaches the transformational power of presence and has extensive experience as a clinical teacher/researcher at the University of Manchester. She has presented at international conferences in Psychophysics and IFS, and also leads satsangs and workshops on awakening and nondual IFS at international gatherings, sharing practices that invite healing, presence and love. Laura is a musician, artist, author and mother. Her teachings draw from Advaita Vedanta, Tantra, Sufism, Christian mysticism, Celtic and Shamanic spirituality, Tao, Zen and Western nonduality texts. An ordained metaphysics scholar, she frequently co-leads spiritual gatherings at Gorton Monastery focused on unconditional love. Her lifelong mission is guiding others to awaken to the love within themselves and live from their true essence. As a visionary polymath, Laura is inspired by Meister Eckhart, Erwin Schrödinger, Teilhard de Chardin, Sri Aurobindo and Rabindranath Tagore. She has written and illustrated a children’s IFS book and recently published Awaken To Love: Reclaiming Wholeness through Embodied Nonduality with Jungian Wisdom, Psychosynthesis & Internal Family Systems—a culmination of more than two decades of research on nondual approaches to psychotherapy. The book weaves modalities such as IFS, Somatic Experiencing and Jungian psychoanalysis with nondual teachings from Vedantic and Tantric traditions.
