About Barry Daniel

I live in the Lake District in the UK where I run a guesthouse with my partner Kate and my cat Manuel. I enjoy painting, hillwalking, reading, visiting and entertaining friends, T’ai Chi and playing the guitar. I’m engaged to a certain degree in the local community, as a volunteer with Samaritans and I’m a fairly active member of the local Green party. I’ve had a relatively intuitive sense of the Middle Way most of my adult life but it found a greater articulation and a practical direction through joining the society. It’s also been interesting and great fun engaging with other people with a similar outlook. My main contribution to the society is conducting the podcast interviews, something that gives me a lot of satisfaction and that I’ve learnt a lot from.

Feminism with Nina Davies at the Virtual Festival of the Middle Way

At this time of international backlash against gender equality, Nina Davies uses Feminist/ Middle Way Philosophy to interrogate the evidence and suggest how to respond. Nina Davies is an experienced meditation and guided enquiry leader with an interest in feminist and continental thought. After leaving a long career in social care, she trained as a CBT Hypnotherapist. This video was recorded from Zoom at the Virtual Festival of the Middle Way, 19th April 2020.
