Meditation has been a part of my life since first learning the technique in the religious environment of a convent where I spent 5 years training to be a nun. Meditation took on a very prayer-like focus and yet when I left the convent I knew I wanted to continue to meditate and started looking for a less religious style to practice.

While in college, I became acquainted with Transcendental Meditation but rejected taking the classes for two reasons. I didn't like the idea of replacing God with the image of a guru and I couldn't afford the tuition for the classes. During this time I also went through the "there is no God" phase. In the end, I realized that I still wanted the spiritual relationship of meditation but wasn't quite sure what form it would take.

A few years after college, I discovered a type of meditation called creative visualization and read several books in an attempt to learn how to do this. I was never quite sure if I was doing the meditation correctly. I found an organization in the city I lived in that taught this kind of meditation and I quickly signed up.

I was hooked on the guided imagery, the visualization aspects and most importantly on the results I was getting by daily meditating in this way. The rest is history--I continue to meditate regularly after 20+ years and of course have grown in my beliefs and openness to the spiritual world in its many versions. I also have taught creative visualization meditation and other spirit-filled classes for over 15 years. I continue to read and explore the possibilities of the mind and spirit which has helped me design a strong spiritual basis for my life and for my expression of the Divine within me.

As a coach, and specifically a life purpose coach, I seek to share the possibilities of a spirit-filled journey through life with my clients through the discovery and creation of their true life purpose. I continue my own spiritual quest by bringing my life purpose and my spiritual learnings to life in my daily adventures.
