About the Author

David Oromith is a Welsh Buddhist contemplative and meditation guide. Through his journey with depression, he discovered Buddhism and meditation, which transformed his outlook and way of dealing with challenge and change.

David was first introduced to mindfulness when he worked in mental health services over eight years ago. This eventually led him to becoming a keen student and practitioner of meditation and Buddhism, most notably through his primary teacher, the world-renowned teacher of Buddhist philosophy and meditation, Dr B. Alan Wallace.

David is the Co-Founder of Samadhi, an organisation based in the UK and member of the UK’s Network of Buddhist Organisations. He is also a qualified mindfulness teacher and an active member of the Association for Spiritual Integrity.

With his unique background and lived experience of mental ill-health, David is devoting his life to helping others cultivate mental and emotional balance through practical experience of meditation and Buddhist philosophy.

David Oromith

David is an experienced Buddhist contemplative and meditation guide who has studied and taught internationally for several years. He is the Co-Founder of Samadhi and a qualified mindfulness teacher, Mental Health First Aider, and an active member of the Association for Spiritual Integrity. His teaching style is clear and practical, and his warm and humorous approach makes him a popular mindfulness teacher. In his own practise and teachings, David focusses on the core themes of Early Buddhism and emphasises the practices of Shamatha (meditative quiescence), and its union with Vipassana on the Four Applications of Mindfulness and the Four Immeasurables – which presents a direct path leading to the realisation of our deepest nature and the potentials of consciousness, and closely follows how the Buddha himself attained enlightenment. He considers himself to be the fortunate student of many teachers, including his root lama, Lama Alan Wallace.
