Jason Maraschiellois a TEDx speaker, author, mindfulness coach, counsellor, and hypnotherapist. He started his mindfulness and meditation journey at the age of ten. In his early twenties his path was leading him into isolation, meditating for up to 8 hours a day. This was very valuable for the development of Jason's own practice but didn't allow him to engage with others. Fascinated with the possibilities of the mind and wanting to reconnect with people, Jason set out to explore the world. He sold his possessions and spent the next few years studying and learning from Masters, Elders and Gurus of many cultures / beliefs in search of deeper meanings of life and success. When he returned to Canada, Jason pursued further studies in psychology, psychotherapy, and hypnotherapy. With his passion for communication, mental health, and psychology, Jason has been speaking at conferences, facilitating corporate teambuilding events, and coaching one-on-one corporate clients for over a decade.
