Tara Meegan

Tara is a co-founder, lead teacher & practitioner with the Embodied Awakening Academy.

At 21, a profound existential crisis sparked by the stark contrast between scientific rationalism and unexplainable mystical experiences launched Tara’s spiritual awakening, setting her on a decade-long journey between two worlds: India and Australia. This unique dual life shaped her into both a Doctor of Marine Ecology and a devoted mystic, studying with masters throughout India, Nepal, and Kashmir.

In the sacred spaces of Tibetan Buddhism and Hinduism, Tara discovered her path of Bhakti (devotion). Years spent in Sai Baba’s ashram in Puttaparthi revealed her life’s purpose: awakening consciousness through devotional service and Kirtan singing. The name ‘White Tara,’ bestowed by one of the Dalai Lama’s teachers, became a powerful embodiment of her path as a teacher and healer.

After 15 years of spiritual exploration, her encounter with Tantra and Chantelle Raven’s teachings illuminated the bridge between divinity and humanity she had long sought. This discovery transformed her understanding of relationships, sexuality, emotions, purpose, and power. Following this profound shift, she left her 17-year career as a Marine Ecologist to co-create the Embodied Awakening Academy with Chantelle, where together they created global events, an extensive online course library, and an internationally certified Tantra Practitioner Training.

Now based between Bali and spiritual communities worldwide, Tara facilitates transformative Tantric spaces through workshops, retreats, and private immersions, while continuing to share the heart-opening practice of Kirtan singing. Her work weaves together scientific insight, spiritual wisdom, and embodied Tantra to create profound spaces for her clients and students to experience authentic awakening that integrates Eastern mysticism with Western understanding.
