ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Carolyn (Koa) Elder is a published writer, coach, head of content and senior program manager who’s been writing and consulting for a decade with startups, nonprofits and conscious small businesses, digital agencies, and fortune 50s to 500s in the Top 50 list.
Beginning in 2011, she invested more deeply in her own mindfulness practice and education as a Sahaja yoga/meditation guide and two-time apprentice of spiritual teacher and humanitarian, Vanessa Stone.
Carolyn is an Ayurvedic Sadhana Consultant, having completed training in 2018 under her teacher, Maya Tiwari. Maya served for two decades as a Vedic monk belonging to India’s prestigious Veda Vyasa lineage and is the founder of Wise Earth School of Ayurveda.
She's also a graduate of the two-year Comprehensive Hakomi Mindfulness-Centered Somatic Psychotherapy practitioner training through Hakomi Institute Southwest, and the principles of this east-meets-west methodology deeply inform her work.
Founder of Conscious Content, mindfulness for work that serves the greater collective good, her intention is to bring ancient mindfulness technology first to individuals and then their teams and organizations to connect them more authentically with themselves, one another and their tribe.
Conscious Content’s guiding inquiry is: what would work look like if work became our sadhana — our personal growth practice?
