Nick Edge

Nick Edge, Swami SatyaDaya, whose spiritual name means 'Wisdom in Compassionate Action’, is the Director of Mandala Yoga Ashram.As well as his role within the Ashram he, along with Tulsi, Nickie Short, offers life-enhancing retreats that combine the practices of Yoga and Meditation with the experience of the natural world.Over the years he has developed a deep appreciation for the power of the system of yoga, and for the sophisticated spiritual understanding contained within its teachings.He has a deep affinity with many of the teachings of Yoga, especially meditation, and brings a humour and down to earth approach to his teaching.Beyond his yogic path, Nick is a passionate wildlife photographer and self-confessed nature lover, finding deep meaning and nourishment in the spontaneous meditation experiences that occur in nature, where the mystery pointed to in all spiritual teachings is present on the most imminent level.He believes that time in nature sharing with and intimately observing other living things, is as fundamental to human well-being as any formal practice.
