Clare Morin is a writer, meditator, wife, content marketer, cat mom, and student of Buddhism, peace and meditation. Born in Blackburn, Lancashire, in the northwest of England, she moved to Hong Kong with her family at the age of two. It was in this post-colonial city, caught between two worlds, where Clare's writing career grew in her 20s and 30s. She worked as a full time arts writer and editor with publications such as Time Out Hong Kong, the South China Morning Post and HK Magazine. It was an existential project in a city that was moving through a powerful moment as the former British colony was merging back into China.
In 2006, Clare moved to the U.S. and the pine forests of Maine. She has worked as a publicist for poets, novelists and filmmakers, and as a content marketer for tech and financial services brands. But at the heart of it all is Clare's meditation practice. It keeps her sane, balanced, joyful and more patient than anything else in her life. She spends most of her free time studying, volunteering and teaching with the non-profit Kadampa Meditation Center Boston and its Maine branch. In her blog, she often dwells and reflects on these ancient mind science teachings.
