Background
Information
|
|
As a part of my inner growth and creative process, it was important to uncover the truth of my life. It is my heart’s desire to live from a deeper place and follow my passions.
The following are events that have influenced and shaped me:
• Completing a course in Evolutionary Metamorphosis and connecting who I was in my youth with who I am now and integrating past and present.
• After a long career in nursing at various levels, I have developed a strong interest in what contributes to successful aging.
• Volunteering in Honduras with a medical team. It was a heart-opening experience: poems were written and fears faced.
• Four years of writing and learning many details of self-publishing and editing to co-create Wings to Fly with J. Chilton..
• Learning that I was sexually abused at the age of 3-4 years and as a pre-teen.
• Several years of healing that included counselling,workshops, trauma release therapy and many books related to abuse. Starting a book titled, Locating Your Pearl, where I share the gems that I uncovered during my healing process
.Being a member of Noetic Nautilus – a group that explored consciousness, spirituality and the personal and group practice of intention.
The Heart Essence Learning System by Susan Castle www.relax-online.com - a process of relaxation, visualization, and sound technology. I learned how to forgive myself and others, open my heart to love, integrate mind with heart.
