Her passion for making mindfulness and meditation practices accessible in a safe and supportive environment led her to create 'Sit With Sakari' whose mission is to build community while awakening the individual. A lifelong student- Lyn is also certified and continously studying: MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction), Reiki (Holy Fire lineage), Kirtan (Bhakti Yoga), sound healing and is a Sound Ceremonalist, certified as a sound bath musician.
