The Journey
I’m a passionate believer in the thought that we take with us our experiences when we leave.
The best of you survives.
A Little About How I got Here
Me. Doing something else I really love.
Like many, my journey started off as one of self-healing.
It’s a bit of a cliche to say the spiritual part of my life suddenly escalated whilst I was working in finance but truth to tell I enjoyed my time in Banking. I had tried to learn meditation and had been for counselling at that point, but was caught off guard when one day I looked down and saw small clouds circling down my body floating just in front. Not sure whether to be excited or shaken by this I asked a friend who was into “alternative stuff”; she told me these were chakras and gave me a book to read.
This small event heralded a period of intense spiritual activity… and purification. I looked for a spiritual teacher trying many disciplines and although all of them had a lot to offer, non felt like a spiritual fit. I happen to believe in a Maker who loves each one of us equally and believe that we’re all spectacularly well guided, so I decided to DIY it and try tuning into this guidance myself.
As my energy became stronger a couple of people suggested doing a course in Healing. Sceptical and on an “I’ll try anything once” basis I went to one session just to tick that box, and was struck by what our minds are able to perceive when we focus it. That first session was in January ‘93 and I have continued to immerse myself in meditation, reflection, and what I call “conscious questioning” to activate the superconscious mind and grow the conscious awareness.
Constant throughout all this time, and overriding all else, is the devotion I feel for the Divine.
Other than that I love skiing, hiking. Anything mountains really. And laughing mindlessly with family and friends is always a good way to remind me of the joy we all share.
I hope I am able to be of service.
