The Writer and Blogger

Matthias Dehne Since the publication of his first book translation based on a Tibetan text on insight meditation in 1977, Matthias Dehne has continued to work as a wordsmith in one form or another to the present day - in the past mainly as a translator and free-lance manuscript editor, recently as a blogger and copy writer. For Healthy Healing, he is mostly responsible for the Center's blog and website.

Under his pen and dharma name Choyin Dorje, he co-authored and/or authored four books some of which were translated into several languages. He writes in both English and German - poetry being his hobby and passion.

Under his dharma name Choyin Dorje has been a practitioner and acted as an instructor for Tibetan yoga for many years and occasionally shares his experience with others. The frequency of these activities may increase in the near future.
