Facilitators
Hor Tuck Loon & Chan Lai Fun
Hor Tuck Loon has been teaching meditation for the past 20 years, drawing parallels from many ancient wisdom teachings and also from his years of experience in the journey of mindfulness. Tuck Loon offers a contemporary approach to meditation through various courses, workshops and weekend retreats. His unique style of teaching and sharing provokes reflection and discussion, and using mindfulness as a tool, skilfully guides participants into understanding how recognising the mechanics of the mind brings about freedom and happiness.
Since her childhood, Chan Lai Fun has been seeking for the meaning of life and this brought her into many soul-searching meditation retreats and workshops. Her structured style of teaching meditation brings about great clarity and understanding to participants as testified from numerous courses conducted in the past 9 years. Working with mindfulness and loving-kindness, her courses centre on creating a richer and more meaningful life through conscious loving and conscious living in the present.

Testimonials
This Course teaches me that my thoughts need to be watched; I have a choice not to buy into my thoughts; and I have the ability to create my own reality.
Chew Mee Yin, Instructional Designer
Bagi saya, setelah menjalani latihan MASP ini, ada beberapa perkara yang telah berjaya saya perbaiki dan perhalusi. Salah satu contohnya:- Bayangkan anda sedang memandu kereta di dalam kesesakan lalu lintas seperti yang anda akan hadapi sekiranya anda bekerja di Kuala Lumpur. Bayangkan perasaan anda apabila terperangkap dalam kesesakan lalulintas, sedangkan anda perlu sampai ke destinasi dalam tempoh masa yang tertentu. Apakah anda akan terus tenang dalam keadan itu? There is a starting point, to begin something.
Norazdi
It has awaken me and empowers me in the space of truth as I progress in my spiritual journey. The course also helped me understand how I could apply it in my daily life whether at home, work, relationship or with people around me.
Annie Foo Yup Hong
It opens up my heart & mind to reality.
Wong Check Lee
I realise that when I start to slow down my pace and practice a heart of appreciation, the world around me is actually not so bad. It helps that Lai Fun always leads the discussion back to basic theories and Tuck Loon relates the theories to our daily lives.
Yong Yen Yee
The course has further allowed me to know more about myself. The realizations are quicker of my own fears, abilities, actions, reactions & response to myself and my surroundings. TQ, TQ, TQ.
Geraldine, Tai Tai
The course was beyond what I expected. Each day I'm learning more about myself through being mindful and meditation.
Alex Wong, Creative Group Head
Overall the course is good, but I have difficulty practising on a day-to-day basis. But attending the course has made a difference in my life and I hope that the improvements will continue in my journey.
Jer Lin, Teacher
I am more aware/mindful of my thoughts. It helps me a lot on my depression issue. Thanks a lot!
Eunice Phang Siew Mei, Lecturer
Tuck Loon really helped stimulate the mind into discovering itself and provided information that was very liberating. Lai Fun's soft approach and grounded examples helped me ground the information into simple ways that I could grasp and feel inspired by.
Stephanie Van Driesen, Lightbearer
By attending this course, I've learnt how to handle difficult, stressful situations; to be patient in daily activities – driving, waiting in a queue; being mindful on how I spend my time.
Catherine Chong
In considering the myriad aspects of TRUTH, I have found that current conventional methods of teaching and understanding are constrained by societal and cultural norms. My participation in Mindfulness- A Starting Point has helped me to understand the limitations of my perceptions and (in being non denominational) it has helped me to develop new skills which have aided me in better surrendering during my own daily spiritual practice.
