ABOUT ME
When I am In the timeless presence of Nature in all her relative agelessness, I figure that there is a Reality that is beyond the limitations of the brain cells that I have inherited. Beyond the filters of my conditioned mind.
I exist in a world that glorifies high achievers and billionaires. A world in which inner experience is suspect without the academic credentials.
Every aspect of our lives are controlled by Patriarchal law and order.
From my early years I rebelled against these restrictions. I questioned the patriarchs. Even the girl’s school I attended was ruled by ‘men’ in skirts.
I chose a different route to the norm. I wanted to be a ballet dancer. I trained after school and was dedicated to the Art.
This caused a problem with my teachers. Soon I became an outsider and pursued my lonely path.
I had placed my dancing spirit on the Feminine Way even though I did not know that at that time.
My destiny was before me. I completed my ballet training, attended University, modelled, worked as a performer, teacher and eventually a Trapeze artist.
I enrolled in the University of Life.
I married in 1975. I was no longer an artist and became a farmer’s wife. I gave birth to three boys and a girl.
I was a full time wife and mother.
In 1994 I began my healing path. I combined my experience in movement and drama with my intuitive healing knowledge and the systems I studied. I presented a process over ten weeks; The Dance of Seven Veils. I had entered the Feminine Path.
Then tragedy disrupted my life. My 15 year old son completed suicide.
My journey to be a healer intensified. I immersed myself in the process towards healing. I experienced such unbearable sorrow that I wanted to find a way to bring comfort to my injured self and family.
Through various serendipitous encounters with teachers who had powerful healing methods to teach I began to find the route to help myself and help others.
I trained in various healing methods. I studied and read volumes of literature on healing. I identified that the right brained way suited me the best. My male and female clients benefited from this approach as their feminine nature is generally neglected.
Hypnoanalysis with Releasing and Reiki Healing Touch are the primary modalities I practice.
I studied the following modalities which form the basis of the @One Journeywork I facilitate for each individual’s needs.
