About us
Eliza
My lifelong passion has been to explore spiritual paths in the East and the West and I have been a teacher of meditation all my adult life. In 1998 I founded the Meditation Centre in Dent, Cumbria, to bring together those of different faiths, recognising that we all tread our own individual path to awaken to the Truth and Love that resides within us all.
Alongside my work as a spiritual guide, I’m also a photographer and writer and have documented the life and landscape of Northern England though several illustrated books. In 1997 I wrote In Search of Freedom and in 2019 my first novel, The Mystery of Martha, a story about two women called Martha, who live 2,000 years apart and tread the same path to awakening.
My latest book, a memoir, came out in 2023 and tells the story of my own spiritual search from childhood to the present day.

My early exposure to the Church left me with more questions than answers, but prompted a lifelong quest for spiritual truth. I then began exploring different spiritual traditions, but with no clear idea of what I was looking for.
Gradually my focus shifted away from doctrine and belief systems towards self-enquiry and discovered ageless, universal mystical teachings that lie at the heart of all spiritual traditions. Only then did I find answers to questions that had haunted me all my life.
Through Sacred Meditation, Eliza and I share these simple, timeless truths, which are accessible to anyone who has the desire to embrace them and awaken to the truth of who we are.
