You are welcome here.

My name is Po-Tien. I’m an accidental corporate, a clumsy Buddhist, a constant student and an accredited meditation teacher.

I was born in Malaysia, grew up in the Hills Shire, studied in Canberra, and I’ve lived in Dee Why for the past 19 years.

I believe we aren’t meant to do this alone. I believe in Community.

As a volunteer at the old Lifeline shop in Dee Why, I saw how human connection, kindness and a third space can bring people together.

Through my personal practice, I understand how meditation and gentle mindfulness can help us reconnect to ourselves and each other.

I wished for a space where I might cultivate both. And so, The Mindful Cup was born.

Whether it is through guided meditations, gentle moving practices with tea or curated mindful events, may The Mindful Cup act as a humble sanctuary that welcomes all.
