"It is a relief to let the mind become silent and just 'be' with surroundings. Peace results, and appreciation and calm prevail."
- David R. Hawkins, M.D., P.H.D.

Awakening Process

The tools and elements of Awakening 101 below are here to guide and to illustrate in a linear way what is often hard to describe. Please use them to engage with your transformation in a deeper way. 

An Invitation:

I am not a doctor or therapist or researcher. I am first and foremost a mother and a deeply spiritual being who recovered from addiction to drugs and alcohol. It has been a life-long fascination of mine to try to find out why I felt the way I felt and why the things that came about for me came about.  The impetus to understand all of this became even stronger when I had children. I started wondering, “What are the key ingredients to an emotionally and spiritually balanced human being?” In other words, the opposite of what I once was? 

“My mission is to increase your awareness of the many doorways of awakening through life’s

journey.”

“My mission is to increase your awareness of the

many doorways of awakening through life’s journey."

“My mission is to increase your awareness

of the many doorways of awakening

through life’s journey."

“My mission is to increase your

awareness of the many doorways of

awakening through life’s journey."

Throughout my own life, healing, and discovery, I found what I believe to be the foundational components of emotional and spiritual health – components I wish I’d had earlier in life. I realized that life and life’s lessons are one incredible puzzle, slowly becoming an awakening process. If you choose to continue, resisting the urge to hide, you will find that life’s purpose is just this: to connect deeply with yourself, your soul, and the vital energy that sustains us all.
