Nancy Hari Darshan Kaur

For over 30 years, Nancy Zabaneh has trained and worked in the U.S., UK, Canada, Asia, Europe, and the Arab world. Nancy offers unique insight into conscious living as a human relations mentor, humanitarian and motivational speaker.

She is a crucial element in founding yoga in the MENA region and has helped train hundreds of yoga instructors through Darshan, an inclusive training and seminar platform for the study of yoga, philosophy and ancient paths of wisdom.

As the first Kundalini yoga teacher trainer in the Arab Gulf, she was a trainer in one of the first yoga teacher trainings in Palestine, a lead facilitator in Saudi Arabia's inaugural wellness festival in AlUla, and a supporting facilitator in the launch of Beyond Addiction in northern India. Most recently, she has held social outreach programs and special events in Jordan and Lebanon.

Drawing on the years of integrative study and teaching to support others in achieving their fullest potential, she is an active counsellor working with a plethora of tools, including Compassionate Inquiry, the psychotherapeutic approach founded by internationally renowned physician Dr Gabor Mate, as part of the program's primary cohorts. Academically trained as a diplomat with a career behind her in the corporate world, Nancy now concentrates her energy on starting conversations that are transformative to people's lives.

Known for her warmth, enthusiasm and no-nonsense compassionate manner, Nancy's events and trainings support the recognition of Truth in every aspect of life. Nancy is deeply committed to a life of awakening through self-inquiry, accountability and awareness, bringing humility of leadership and objectivity to corporate spaces, couples and groups alike. Social impact and community outreach are a central component of her work.
