Dr. Margaret Trey, researcher, counselor, and author of The Mindful Practice of Falun Gong: Meditation for Health, Wellness, and Beyond, adopts an integrative approach toward helping others. She holds a doctorate degree in counseling from The University of South Australia. Curiosity and a passion and a passion for antiquated wisdom enthused Dr. Trey to train in different modalities—traditional Chinese medicine, shiatsu, yoga, Vipassana meditation, food as medicine, and Falun Gong in 1997. Since 2001, Dr. Trey has focused on the study of the effects of Falun Gong by exploring counselor burnout with Falun Gong as intervention strategy. During the same year, she started integrating Falun Gong into her counseling work that inspired her to investigate the health-wellness effects of Falun Gong as part of her doctoral research and current ongoing studies. Dr. Trey has presented on her research findings on Falun Gong at various international conference, including in Cairns, Australia, Bangkok, Thailand, Singapore, and at the American Counseling Association annual conference in Montreal, Canada. To date, she has facilitated two Falun Gong seminars at Xavier University of Louisiana.
