Born and raised in England, Angelyn traveled the world expecting to return to her homeland but there was another plan in store that led her to Vancouver, Canada and a corporate career. After two decades working in advertising and radio, then as a consultant in communications and interpersonal skills, she withdrew to a tree house on an island to re-assess her life. Three months later a profound shift had occurred, and she began her life's work.

In 1994, through a tragedy and a miracle, she was able to fulfill a lifetime dream and established Xenia Creative Development Centre, a magnificent 38-acre sanctuary on Bowen Island. Today Xenia enjoys an international reputation and is known for its peaceful loving qualities. Nestled amidst hundreds of acres of parkland and lakes, this haven is specially designed to invoke rest, renewal, and the awakening of natural gifts.

Angelyn facilitates a variety of programs at Xenia and in her travels around the world. Her work assists people in radically shifting perspective through presence and a process of inquiry based on the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, the Power of Now and the Work of Byron Katie

Angelyn is a woman deeply committed to the path of conscious awakening through practical, everyday living. She is passionate about the process of transformation and the sharing of gifts and talents. Another of her lifelong passions is with horses and at Xenia you will find an assortment of delightful 4-legged friends who are very much a part of the culture of Xenia.
