About Me

When I feel like I’ve lost myself, I wander around the city to find myself again. ♠️🤍💜

Hello! 你好 My name is Cindy S. Lee 李欣怡. I’m Taiwanese American, a spiritual practitioner, professor, and author.

My spirituality honors the traditions of my family which includes Taiwanese ancestral, Daoist, and Buddhist traditions as well as the Christian tradition in a Taiwanese immigrant church. I don’t see a contradiction in holding all our sacred spiritualities. Daoists believe that the divine is unnameable and simply call her the Dao 道, the way. Therefore, my spirituality is a way of life that embraces divine mystery and honors the sacredness in all beings and in all nature.

I completed a Ph.D in the area of Spirituality from Claremont School of Theology. I write and teach as an adjunct professor in the areas of mysticism, spiritual accompaniment, and particularly a BIPOC-centered spirituality. I also train new spiritual companions and care practitioners at Liberated Together.

Author of Our Unforming: De-Westernizing Spiritual Formation and Contemplative Witnessing: BIPOC-Centered Spiritual Direction.
