Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes
Meditation teacher in Acem. Pharmacist and professor of pharmacokinetics.
Margareta is a professor and leads Acem Sweden together with two other meditation teachers in her spare time.
At the age of 26, she learned to meditate. Margareta found what she was looking for in Acem, where the meditation technique has a psychological basis and is not religiously connected. As a meditation teascher, she holds everything from basic courses to advanced weekly retreats.
Margareta researches drug metabolism in the body, espescially how drugs are transported to the brain. She has published many scientific articles and supervised several doctoral students. She has also. among other things, developed the subject of clinical pharmacy to contribute to good drug use in patients. She follows the research front also in terms of meditation research, where fascinating results about what happens in the brain when you meditate has come in recent years.
"Meditation has helped me enormously both at work an in private by getting to know myself more and also to understand others," says Margareta. Extensive experience with meditative processes in Acem, especially guidance and communication groups, has also contributed to a leadership development that she has greatly benefited from in her work as well.
