ANNE SPECKENS is a professor of psychiatry at the Radboud University Medical Centre in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. She is the founder and director of the Radboudumc Centre for Mindfulness.

Its research focuses on the effectiveness and possible working mechanisms of mindfulness in different populations. Anne is a qualified mindfulness teacher and completed the Teacher Training Program of Bodhi College in 2021.

STEPHEN BATCHELOR has been practicing Buddhism since 1972. Throughout this time he has been concerned to find ways of articulating the Dharma in a language that speaks to the conditions of modernity. As well as being a scholar, translator and writer, he works as a photographer and collagist. The integration of the imagination and the creative arts into Dharma practice is of particular importance to him. A co-founder of Bodhi College, he is the author of Buddhism without Beliefs, Living with the Devil, Confession of a Buddhist Atheist, After Buddhism, and Secular Buddhism. His most recent book is The Art of Solitude.
