EARLY DAYS - A JOURNEY OF AWAKENING
Growing up in an academic family, I balanced my highly active mind through theatre arts, singing, sports, and meditation.  I learned meditation at 5 years old at the Quaker school I attended where we participated in daily meditation.   I enjoyed this time immensely, almost as much as I enjoyed singing in church on Sundays.

I loved animals and had an enchanted dog--a small but mighty Welsh corgi who taught me that the size of one’s body does not correlate with the scope of one’s spirit—in fact the spirit is immense. My dog was my brother in a furry body, and he allowed me to put him in my doll carriage out of the pure, extraordinary, unconditional love that all animals are.  My parents taught me to respect and love animals and I embraced the teachings of St. Francis, becoming a vegetarian later, in accordance with the Sanskrit principle of "ahimsa"  or non harming.

As a teenager I communed with raccoons who would visit my window late at night while I laid in bed writing. When everyone was sleeping and the world was quiet, I experienced tremendous peace and stillness glimpsing the raccoons' spirits as I felt our oneness.

Life was an exciting adventure but I was also highly sensitive, distinctly hearing what others were thinking, a skill I would use later when I developed into a clairaudient Reiki healer. 

I spent hours singing understanding the power of the voice for self expression and connecting with the Divine spirit within us.   Acting on stage helped me see life through others’ eyes, understanding that our pleasures and pains are the same.

SEEKING MY PATH: FROM ACADEMIA TO REIKI

I pursued a conventional path, going to college, earning an English degree, and then working in the publishing field. But inside I felt a persistent lack of fulfillment, as if my spirit were constricting.

I escaped to graduate school but again felt unsettled until one day when I "randomly" discovered Reiki, self development, and metaphysics.  

By day I studied Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Thoreau,  and by evening I explored Reiki, crystal healing, polarity, yoga. I attended self development workshops and received healing bodywork sessions. Suddenly, I found insights not only on an intellectual level but also an energetic level and my soul was soothed.

LOS ANGELES & INDIA: SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

After graduate school I taught English at the university but soon moved to Los Angeles, and on my way across the country I met a powerful female guru from India who gave me a remarkable energy transmittal, igniting special energies within to deepen my path.

In Los Angeles I taught English but also continued the inner quest by studying hypnotherapy, pranic healing, magnified healing, yoga, past life regression, and Feng Shui.  I established the American Reiki Academy and immersed myself in the teachings of Indian gurus and Sanskrit mantra chanting, an incredible and transformational practice.  

Magically, India was calling me.  Indeed when the time is right and the seeker is open, "Mother India" scoops up your weary spirit, challenges you, consoles you and teaches you. 

I began praying for the next step in my spiritual journey which I found in journeying to India.

INDIA: A TRANSFORMATIVE PILGRIMAGE

In 1998 I visited India, spending time in spiritual ashrams and ancient temples, where I meditated, chanted, and met powerful gurus and swamis. To my great fortune, I met and was accepted by a humble, wise guru who introduced me to Vedic Healing, an extensive program of meditation, Sanskrit mantra chanting and other rituals that enriched my path.

The word “guru” means “one who leads you from darkness to light” and thus finding a guru provides the seeker with tremendous growth and acceleration on the spiritual path. Through the blessings and generosity of Guruji and the Vedic Healing teachings, I found what my soul had been seeking.  

In Los Angeles I began sharing Guruji’s rare Vedic healing tools,  and in 1999, we started the Vedic Healing Center, spreading spiritual practices from ancient India.  For the next 25 years, I studied in India with Guruji, led Pilgrimages to India, taught, and continued to study with India’s very special gurus, yogis and saints.  

TODAY

Today, after many years of teaching and practicing Reiki and Vedic Healing and deepening my personal spiritual practice, my life has become a magical unfolding.

Now, through the spiritual tools that have helped me so profoundly, I guide people to move through obstacles, access power, and manifest their dreams and destinies.

My mission is to help people overcome stress, negative thoughts, emotions and conditions and create magnificent lives by using spiritual self development and healing.   Whether it is love, happiness, peace, abundance, health, balance, anything you desire is attainable!  And spiritual healing tools can help you access what you are seeking...and more. 

But first it is necessary to understand and master how energy works.

SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU:

Are you interested in exploring ancient healing techniques to see what they can offer you as a means to achieving love, happiness, peace, success and inner fulfillment? 

Do you feel oppressed by a mind that is filled with fear, worry, self doubt or anxiety? 

Do you wish to attract your life partner, abundance, or create your highest self expression?

Do you consider yourself to be sensitive to energy or have natural healing abilities? 

Do you yearn to create a life of purpose and inner fulfillment?

Do you wish to help not only yourself but other people or animals? 

Through the healing art of Reiki, the spiritual path of Vedic Healing, the secrets of Feng Shui, and the magic of metaphysics, you can awaken incredible abilities inside you which then causes life to unfold easily and struggle to cease.   

In such a magnificent state of being, you need not pursue anything--for that which you desire actually comes to you naturally…as if by magic!

So let's begin the work!  It's really quite fun! And there is no time to lose!
