About Me

I am starting this blog to share the experience, knowledge, and wisdom I have gained after 30 years of exploring healing. I have done extensive research and exploration into understanding what it means to act from self-care and self-honesty, and have implemented these practices into my life. Through my work, I have learned to have a happier and healthier experience internally as well as with the world around me.

There are many paths to healing and overall health. I believe we can each find our way to physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness on our own unique journey. All that is required is to simply begin taking steps in the right direction; to explore what your path might include.
 

My perspective on healing has been informed by many of the prominent teachers and leaders in recovery, mental health issues, and new spiritual awareness. Through my work in programs of recovery such as AA, ACA, Alanon and energy healing, I have come to understand the complex dynamics that can hold a person back from true contentment. 

I have worked on and studied family of origin issues, through thought leaders such as John Bradshaw, Tian Dayton, and Melonie Beattie. I incorporate information about the impacts of trauma from Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk and Complex PTSD by Peter Walker, among others. You will see spiritual leaders such as Gary Zukav, Caroline Myss, Don Miguel Ruiz, Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle highlighted in my work. Additionally, I incorporate concepts from Buddhism and the practice of mindfulness. I am a forever student who strives to continually expand my understanding of the human experience. In this blog, I hope to bring these teachings together to help others on their journey to total wellness.
