Bentleigh - Victoria
Hello, my name is Nao, and I am delighted to be delivering the HICAT program!
I have studied HICAT myself, and I loved it!
I also have a background in early childhood education, primary teaching, bilingual education, life coaching, meditation, and Reiki.

I also have a background in early childhood education, primary teaching, bilingual education, life coaching, meditation, and Reiki.
My passion is about creating a great balance between self-identity, which I call "child-like heart", and connection within the outer world. I highly value curiosity, imagination and presence. Over the years, I have worked with a wide range of people, from children and young people to adults navigating life changes, stress, and personal growth. What I continue to value in this work is the way creative expression allows us to step beyond words, touch our inner world, and discover new perspectives and possibilities.
As a teacher, I aim to create a gentle space with warmth, patience, and encouragement in the classroom. I believe learning happens best when we feel safe, supported and respected, and when we are free to try, reflect, and grow without judgment.
My role is not only to share knowledge, but also to walk alongside you as you develop your confidence and your own authentic way of understanding and working. I bring a balance of structure, flexibility, and spontaneity to my teaching approach. Structure helps us feel grounded and clear, while flexibility allows space for curiosity, individuality, and meaningful exploration.
My hope is that each student feels empowered, and learning with me in this practice can bring depth and richness to both their personal and professional life.
Outside of teaching, I love being creative with natural materials and colours I'm drawn to through spontaneous exploration. I often enjoy connecting with others through shared projects and community-based art. This ongoing practice keeps my work fresh, alive, and rooted in lived experience. I am truly honoured to be part of your HICAT journey and look forward to supporting you.

Meditation Teacher Training
Parramatta - New South Wales
Meditation entered my life at a time when I was searching for balance and healing.
What started as a simple practice soon became my anchor, helping me navigate challenges, release old patterns, and reconnect with a deeper sense of peace and purpose. Over time, this inner shift grew into something more: a calling to guide others along their own path of self-discovery.
This is why I chose to become a meditation teacher, and why I now feel so honoured to train others who feel drawn to this work. Teaching meditation is not just about leading a practice; it’s about embodying stillness, compassion, and clarity and then sharing those qualities in a way that uplifts others. For many, this path becomes more than a practice; it becomes a way of living and a livelihood rooted in alignment and meaning.
Alongside my personal journey, I’ve trained in meditation, yoga, breathwork, and mind-body practices that support both inner calm and nervous system regulation. These foundations not only helped me navigate life with greater ease but also allowed me to guide others with grounded confidence and authenticity.
My approach is simple and down-to-earth: meditation should feel natural, accessible, and adaptable, no matter where you are starting from.
In the Meditation Teacher Training Program, you’ll deepen your own practice while also developing the confidence to share it with others.
My role is to guide you through the program with authenticity and care, supporting you as you integrate the practices so you can step into teaching with integrity and confidence
I believe everyone has the capacity to access stillness and strength within themselves, and anyone with commitment and heart can guide others to do the same.
I will walk beside you as you explore this path, offering guidance, structure, and encouragement.
If you are seeking not just personal transformation but also a way to make a living that feels aligned with your values and your soul, becoming a meditation teacher is a powerful step.
I would be honoured to guide you through this journey. This training is more than a program; it is an invitation to align with your true self and share that light with the world.
