Autorenporträt
Sister Dang Nghiem is a disciple of the revered Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. After losing her mother at the age of twelve, she moved to the United States with her brother at the age of seventeen, where she learned English and went on to earn a medical degree from the University of California-San Francisco. After suffering further tragedy and the loss of her partner, she quit her practice as a doctor to travel to Plum Village monastery in France, founded by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, where she ordained as a nun in 2000. Her writing draws on her unique experiences as a physician, a nun, and an individual navigating diverse worlds. She is the author of three books: a memoir, Healing: A Woman's Journey from Doctor to Nun (2010),  Mindfulness as Medicine: A Story of Healing and Spirit (2015), and Flowers in the Dark: Reclaiming Your Power to Heal from Trauma with Mindfulness  (2021).
