Venerable Geshe Nyima Dorje graduated from the largest Tibetan buddhist monastery in the world, Sera Monastic University in South India. His main teachers included His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, the late Venerable Khensur Urgyen Tseten, Venerable Khensur Kangurwa Lobsang Thupten and Venerable Khenpo Lobsang Palden.

Geshe-la arrived in New Zealand in 2008 and taught in Dunedin for two years until Christchurch made a formal request for a teacher and Geshe Nyima to be that teacher, proving to be lively and entertaining, fresh and eloquent.

Certainly he is very experienced, having taught younger monks in the monastery, in his home region of Tibet and for 3 years in the traditionally Tibetan-Buddhist country of Mongolia. Having Geshe-la to teach in Christchurch therefore, is quite a wonderful opportunity for people to make a deep connection with age-old teachings and fundamental beliefs.

Geshe-la will be making his first general public talks in Christchurch at the Body Mind and Spirit Festival, the first on Saturday at 12.10pm giving a talk on ‘Love and Compassion’ and one the Sunday at 2.10pm on ‘Patience and Harmony’.

Venerable Geshe Nyima Dorje teaches weekly on Tuesday evenings at 7.00pm and Saturday afternoons at 3.00pm at the Christchurch Tibetan Buddhist Dhargyey Centre 29 Averill st Richmond Christchurch.

In the traditional Tibetan Buddhist way the Centre ensures all teachings are free of charge making Buddha's teachings accessible to everyone.

Nanny is an experienced Numerologist and Tarot Reader.

"I believe that it is important to pursue your dreams. Dreams are an expression of your true self, that we are all born to fulfil a particular purpose and that the fun lies in the discovery of what that will be.

My wish is to help people to live their own lives. For people to look after themselves, to be happy, content and to find balance in everything they do. Life is precious so we should try to live our Best Life.

Our most valuable posessions lie within, but our greatest happiness can only be found if we take the time to better understand ourselves ... then we can discover our natural gifts, our true potential and our real purpose in life. So if you would like to take a chance and follow your heart, you too can become the happiest you have ever been.

Diploma Advanced Hypnotherapy
Aurora Practitioner & Teacher
Acutouch Therapist
Nutrienergetics System Practitioner

My passion is to help people to achieve their full potential in life. I am an intuitive healer, life healing coach and teacher.

We are energy. When we have blockages in the flow of the energy around the body, whether they are mental, physical, emotional or spiritual, our body becomes out of balance and creates illness, pain and disease.

Everyone has the ability to heal themselves and others. In my workshops I will demonstrate an Aurora technique using colour, sound, magnets and crystals. You will then experience a Charka meditation using visualization of your charkas.
I will explain how easy it is for ordinary people to become healers.
I will give you some insight into what I have to offer in my 12 week Healing Workshops which will run once a week for 2 ½ hours.

In my other workshop you will learn a very powerful technique that will enhance your life and help eliminate fears, anxiety, panic attacks, stress addictions, pain and hurt. This will increase your self confidence and bring more love into your life.

Please also check my website to find out what products and services I have to offer.
