FACILITATOR
Nancy – Hari Darshan Kaur Nancy Zabaneh offers a truly unique insight into conscious living as a human relations mentor, humanitarian and motivational speaker. Nancy is a crucial element in founding yoga in the MENA region and has helped train over 100 yoga instructors in the Arab world through darshan, an inclusive training and seminar platform for the study of yoga, philosophy and ancient paths of wisdom.
As the first Kundalini yoga teacher trainer in the Arab Gulf, she was a trainer in one of the first yoga teacher trainings in Palestine, a lead facilitator in Saudi Arabia’s inaugural wellness festival in Al Ula, and a supporting facilitator in the launch of the internationally renowned Beyond Addiction in northern India. Drawing on the years of integrative study, and teaching to support others in achieving their fullest potential, she works with a range of techniques and modalities, including Compassionate Inquiry, the psychotherapeutic approach founded by internationally renowned physician Dr. Gabor Mate, as part of the program’s primary cohorts. Academically trained as a diplomat with a career behind her in communications, Nancy concentrates her energy on starting conversations that are transformative to people’s lives, often specializing in stress management, trauma, addiction, conscious communication, authentic relationships and optimum vitality. More of her time over the coming year will be focused on the social impact and community outreach space.
