Having turned real world pain into great suffering, it was during pneumonia (Jan-Feb 2018) that I found full Surrender. At that time, the pain of regret around relationships was replaced with Love - a fundamental basis for regret. These feelings combined with stillness (7 weeks in bed) invited Grace yet again, resulting in profound experiences that changed the path of this life. After some years of spiritual growth, I could see that the material world losses freed me from a false identity and a life that no longer suited me.

In 2019 and 2020 as I went full time into spiritual studies and logged many hours in meditation, I discovered what I hoped and already innately knew: that Spirit is fully interactive. (If one has but the faith of a mustard seed…) What was new for my life was greater understanding of right intention, right attention, with intensity, and - what I am still working on - acceptance of the outcomes without attachment. Know that you are a powerful being! To paraphrase Paramahansa Yogananda, “but don’t take my word for it, take up my yoga!”

The work that excites me the most is that of helping you understand your experiences, and to navigate your own path of self-discovery and healing. To that purpose I offer support and guidance to those ready to embark on the journey within.

FOR FUN

I enjoy frequent walks outdoors, including hiking mountains when possible. Regular activities include weight lifting & yoga practice. While I seldom find a crag these days, rock climbing remains an occasional attraction. Music has been a long-running component in my life: occasionally I might be heard playing guitar at assisted living facilities.
