The Contemplary is shaped by the contribution of people with diverse skills and experience. We share an interest in approaches to contemplative practice and ethical living that make sense in a contemporary context and offer the possibility of improved personal and social wellbeing. We are fortunate to be able to draw upon the knowledge of a growing group of esteemed advisors and to benefit from a number of experienced educators. The Contemplary seeks to attract people with an interest in contemplative practice and the study or exploration of these practices from the perspective of the arts, humanities and science.
