An inquest hears that Claire Rodway, a 52-year-old wellness teacher, took her own life after injuring her back during a year-long Buddhist retreat on a remote island in Scotland. According to reports, Rodway had been fit and active before she went to stay at the monastery. During the retreat, she developed a back injury that left her in continuing pain, and the inquest considers how her condition affected her mental and physical wellbeing. The Daily Mail reports that she died because she could no longer live with the pain. The accounts describe the setting as remote and the retreat as year-long, but provide limited detail beyond Rodway’s health prior to the retreat and the circumstances leading up to her death. The inquest information is drawn from the reporting available, and further findings and conclusions would be determined through the formal inquest process. The coverage does not indicate alternative causes for her death beyond the pain associated with the injury.
