Lead by Luke

 

Luke Maguire Armstrong is the author of the "All the Beloved Known Things” and nine other works. He has lived in Thai and Tibetan Buddhist monasteries, and has studied yoga and meditation in Thailand, Cambodia, Australia, India, Nepal, Mexico, Guatemala, and The USA. His focus is classical hatha yoga, Dorje Tibetan Yoga, and vipassana meditation.  


He continues ongoing studies with indigenous populations and combines cacao ceremonies with trainings in Mayan cosmology. He bases his travels from the village life in Guatemala where he works to enable the holistic education of 80 impoverished children through The Integral Heart Family education center. His development work led him to being featured on ABC News’ Global Health Special and interviewed by Christiane Amanpour. Sometimes his joy is the cause of his smile, other times his smile causes his joy.
