Benjamin A. Lindh Medin
artist, teacher, healing practitioner

I was born in Sweden in 1989 and grew up immersed in both artistic fields and healing practices from a very young age. With a mother who is an actress and singer, and a father who is a world-traveling yoga teacher, I had the opportunity to travel extensively and be exposed to diverse ways of living and being.

​

My fascination with dance started in childhood, and I dedicated years to studying both urban and contemporary performing arts. Alongside this, I explored singing in Sweden and delved into Ashtanga Yoga under my father’s guidance, starting at the age of 8, with my journey taking me to places like London, India, and Hong Kong.

While I have many interests, I tend to dive deeply into whatever sparks my curiosity. Over the past 15 years, I have focused on cultivating my personal freedom of expression through dance and music, while remaining deeply involved in spiritual practices like yoga, meditation, and Qi Gong. My aim has always been to bridge these different fields—finding the common thread that connects them.

​

At the heart of this exploration, I’ve realized that losing oneself in the act of exploration, and learning to play with expression, is what brings a profound sense of presence. It’s a process of discovery that keeps me connected to my essence.

In recent years, I’ve been greatly influenced by teachers like Stephan Laur, Bruno Caverna, and Lama Tantrapa, whose wisdom and unique approaches have inspired me on my path. They carry deep ancestral knowledge while blending tradition with innovative reflections, and they’ve helped me see that while we learn from ancient teachings, we are also the "new ancients," living in a world that invites fresh ways of being.

​

My creation, The Listening Body, grew from the understanding that we are all interconnected beings of nature. One of the most important keys to well-being, I’ve found, is cultivating a deep sense of trust—beginning with the body. This practice is about immersing ourselves in our bodies and in the natural world, recognizing the connection between the elements inside and outside of us.

​

Today, I work as a freelance dancer, musician, healing practitioner, and teacher. My ongoing journey is about continuing to build a bridge between holistic practices and artistic expression, finding ways to create a synthesis that reflects the depth and diversity of my path.
