About Me

Hello,

I have been a spiritual seeker almost all of my life.....from a very early age....and over the last year started reading 2 of Ken's books One Taste and Integral Spirituality and then subscribed this past summer 08 to the multiplex sites and had the opportunity to listen to many different perspectives.  This is a fascinating journey for me and I look forward to greater understanding of the quadrants so that I can use them with ease.  It is overwhelming at times, but the interesting thing for me is that usually overwhelm makes me stop doing something and turn towards other pursuits.  Since I started engaging with the ideas herein I have just wanted to dive deeper and that's got to mean something good!

I am the director of  The Mind Body Wisdom Project that specializes in trainings on mindfulness-based stress reduction and other cognitive practices/intentional work that help someone tap into the power of the mind for self improvement, consciousness raising endeavors. You can find me at www.mindbodywisdomproject.com

Through Integral Naked I have actually re-appreciated my Christian spiritual roots through listening to Brother David for instance. I broke with organized religion in 1996.  I have been studying and teaching Buddhist philosophy for the last 10 yrs.within a correctional setting. So the teachers "live" and "archived" on the site have given me a great number of hours of listening pleasure. 

I live with my partner and 2 cats near Albany NY.  I am a watercolor and digital artist.  My work is featured at www.symphonyofcolor.com and you'll notice that I love painting animals and flowers.  My formal degrees are in religious studies, biology/chemistry and graduate degree in social welfare.  I love a good cup of coffee, chocolate, and time off from work.  I have been meditating with Bill Harris' Holosync technology since mid-April 08 and have had wonderful success.  I started meditating traditionally in early 2000 and found it very frustrating.  I have a fairly consistent yoga practice and I do the body scan regularly for relaxation.

Career

I am a school social worker within a correctional facility and I provide group counseling and human development courses to inmates of all ages.  I have some informal leadership roles and I administer the GED exam onsite.  My desire is to become more involved with training through The Mind Body Wisdom Project as I truly love passing on consciousness-raising skills to others.  My life's work has been as a helper and as I review this, I see that this has been a good thing for me and for others as well.
