Peter Radcliffe
Meditation Teacher and Life CoachHelping you channel your full potential
Our Vision
Skillful MIND’s vision is to offer people the space and support to cultivate their own inner peace and re-connection with self.
I believe that the more connected and peaceful people are, the more motivated, passionate, resilient and caring they are. And this in turn makes them more likely to benefit loved ones, their community, and society.
This business exists to share techniques and strategies with people so they feel inspired to seek out their purpose and passions, and live a life they love.
About Us
Founded in 2010, Peter Radcliffe shares his over 20 years of experience, and a long history in health and wellbeing in response to a need to provide everyday people with the skills and knowledge he gained in his own time of soul searching.
With aim of providing the most useful content and learning available, at affordable prices, Skillful Mind was born.
Meditation retreats cater for all stages of learning structured so that every day people, like you, can learn and grow into the person they wish to be.
Weekend retreats are a fantastic option to give yourself a chance to immerse in ancient practices of meditation and yoga, and leave with a desire to make it a part of your daily life.
Held in beautiful locations around Adelaide, and Bali, sharing with you the benefits that can be had by spending just a small amount of time each day, healing the most important person in the world – YOU.
My Approach
I help people get past the point where their practice stalls, and keep going towards awakening.
I worked as an engineer for twenty years. In 1993, at 22, I spent time as a Buddhist monk in the rainforests of Thailand, and since then I have sat many long retreats, some of them up to nine months in solitary meditation. Alongside the meditation I studied modern psychology and NLP, and I became a certified NLP trainer.
I started teaching small groups in 2004 and left the corporate world in 2009 to teach full time. Today I run Skillful MIND: a free online meditation group every Sunday morning, silent retreats in South Australia and Thailand, the Meditation Leaders program, and a year-long mentoring group for people serious about awakening.
My teaching is practical. I use the clarity of meditation and the tools of coaching together, because in my experience you need both to see through the habits that keep us stuck.
I live on the Fleurieu Peninsula, an hour south of Adelaide. I am a father of three.
