Philosophy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I
was the kid other kids came to for advice. It may have been my early
physical development that caused me to look older and wiser or the
air of confident energy I exuded, that drew my friends and classmates
to me.
Those
early advice giving sessions set the stage for a lifelong succession
of gathering degrees and certificates, allowing me to hang out my
shingle legitimately to help others.
In
1980, after internships in various clinics, I opened my own center
offering different healing techniques, therapy and weekend workshops.
Several practitioners worked out of my center, exposing me to
modalities that I had not personally studied. This gave me a well
rounded knowledge of the world of alternative medicine. I chose to
study many of the modalities so that I could fill in when the
practitioners at my center were unavailable. I caught the bug of
continuing my education in many of those fields, acquiring quite a
few certificates, while continuing my formal studies at the
university. While attending and then giving many workshops, I learned
that teaching others the knowledge I gleaned was my ultimate passion.
After
successfully
navigating a succession of my own major life transitions,
I was compelled to light the path for others. My life is now
dedicated to contributing to people’s transformation through
Lifelines to Laughlines™.

I
am blessed to have created a lifestyle affording me with time to
include in my daily practice: meditation; yoga; spiritual readings;
writing in my journal. Weekly I attend classes to further my
ministerial studies. I am active in the Austin Center for Spiritual

Philosophy
This
overview of my personal and spiritual growth activities should give
you an idea of my commitment to my own growth, as well as my
dedicated service to human evolution. My mission is to be a positive
catalyst for everyone that my life touches.
“I
believe we were put on this earth to celebrate the abundance of Life.
Therefore I have chosen to be an active participant in my life rather
than a bystander. We are all unique expressions of the One Source
here to fulfill our purpose. Purpose being the passion we feel deep
in our hearts.”
