Biography George Barker

After a successful career as a music producer in London, George went on to train in yoga under Faustomaria Dorelli, and in meditation under the Venerable Therevada Buddhist master Pa Auk Sayadaw and for many years as a teaching assistant under renowned western meditation teacher Burgs. He founded a holistic healing and meditation centre with Burgs in Bali where they worked for some years, before returning from Asia to study Transpersonal Psychology and Psychotherapy at the C.C.P.E. in London. He went on to specialise in Dreamwork, groups and non-ordinary states of consciousness, and during this time began to work again with plant medicines in Colombia with Kajuhali Tsamani and Mamas from the Kogi tribe and with the Huni Kuin tribe of Acre in  Brazil. A deep friendship with Maureenji and Moshe led to a profound collaboration in both music and  healing, and the creation of  Sacred Singing and Prayer Circles in London and Somerset called Circle of Life and the co-hosting of workshops.
