Mark Sherman

Mark is a family physician and meditation teacher from British Columbia, Canada with a deep commitment to helping others recover their healing through meditation, self-compassion, plant medicine, and a recognition of the sacred in our lives. Mark incorporates poetry, philosophy, humour, and the shared wisdom from all spiritual lineages into his teachings, workshops, and retreats.

He is the founder of the BC Association for Living Mindfully and Living This Moment and has been teaching mindfulness and meditation since 2002.
