MY JOURNEY
My healing path began when I was a child and my mother read me Czech fairy tales. It turns out that fairy tales are shamanic hero's journeys, and even as a child I knew instinctively that there are important messages hidden within. It was many years later, after a career in teaching art, that I discovered shamanism, and I realized how closely fairy tales and shamanism are related. Fairy tales are messages from our ancestors, handed down by oral tradition as they sat by the fire sharing wisdom and tales. They represent a human journey to spiritual self-mastery and discovery. They open our world to the power of magic, healing, enchantment, and spirit.
I started a shamanic drumming circle in New Jersey, which I lead for ten years. Over the years I have had an extensive apprenticeship with many healers and shamans. It began with a Shamanic Workshop with the father of modern day shamanism, Michael Harner. Subsequently I studied Soul Retrieval with Christina Pratt; Creating in Dreamtime with Robert Moss; Celtic Shamanism with Tom Cowan; Soul Retrieval and Extraction with Sandra Ingerman.
Later I furthered my spiritual studies at the Children of Light Mystery School; Reiki, Light Ascension and Practitioner Training with Ron Baker and Robert Baker. I became certified as a Reiki Master and a Practitioner. I have been on several spiritual journeys to Egypt and Macchu Picchu.
I am also a working artist, working in watercolor, painting, and sculpture. I have written, photographed and published seven children's photo books about nature: What Do You Do at a Petting Zoo?, Terrific Tails, Outstanding Outsides, What Neat Feet!, Breath-Taking Noses, The Magic Ring, and Pasta Factory.
I have taught at Doing Art Together at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and for 15 years in the New York City Public Schools . I am now retired to the woods of North East Pennsylvania, where I live at the "Aerie" with my cinematographer-photographer husband, three shamanic cats, and a nature-loving dog. I offer mediumship and channeling readings as well as energetic healing. I recently hosted a video conference entitled "Through the Goddess Portal,"and I offer a free monthly webinar. If you would like to join us, e-mail me at; [email protected].
I Have been inspired and guided by all the animals in my life.
