“. . . what you are looking for
has many names and one existence.
Donʼt search for one of the names.
Move beyond any attachment to names.
Every war and every conflict between human beings
has happened because of some disagreement about names.
Itʼs such an unnecessary foolishness,
because just beyond the arguing
thereʼs a long table of companionship,
set and waiting for us to sit down.”
- Rumi, in The Soul of Rumi, Coleman Barks, translator

I’ve always wanted to connect all the dots. The quest for the truth, the desire to find answers as to why we are here, why we die, what happens then, and what we can do with our lives has been my driving mission. My first experience of the light came when I was twelve years old and had a visitation from some being that I interpreted as Jesus. This was interesting since I had little spiritual education as a child. In college I went on to study Eastern paths and sought to understand reality creation as Jane Roberts explained through Seth Speaks. In my twenties, I also began to open up to nature mysticism, seeking solace and understanding in the high desert of Texas. I became aware of a sense of pervading Oneness around me. As a young mother, I had a stillbirth and received another light experience which brought peace, love, and healing in that moment. It was a felt sense that I existed in this cocoon of love that was really always there. I would have this experience several more times in my life, and I also began to consciously seek it.

After my second daughter was born, I began to study conscious breath work as a way to release emotional trauma, open the heart, and experience that Oneness feeling that I craved. I started a wellness center where I used hypnotherapy and rebirthing in my heart-centered therapy practice. When my third daughter was born, I stayed home with the children and found myself able to focus more intently on my spiritual path. I began a course of study to connect with more subtle energies, open up to higher realms, and become a more clear expression of my soul. I continue this meditation to this day. I acknowledge that Love is the healer, Love is why we are here, Love is where we exist after death, and Love is what we can do with our lives now.

When my oldest daughter died in a car accident at age eighteen I had another very dramatic experience which buffered me for several weeks. I was surrounded in the most awesome sphere of Light and Love. The healing that I felt was undeniable, as was the knowledge that we are not our bodies and that consciousness continues on after death.
