LAURA XIAO DONG LIU is a student of life who is aligned with nothing else but life itself. She writes from her life experiences and those of her clients to impart a simple message: Each moment of life offers each human being an opportunity for a direct awakening. Peace, love and joy do not lie in the mind, but in the prior state of the mind - the state of “no mind, no self”. She is the entrusted translator for the influential book Redundant Words by Venerable Master Shaoyun, the Ninth Generation Dharma heir of the Weiyang Sect of the Chan School in China. She enjoys traveling near and far and lives with her twin children in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada.
