I am a mom, teacher, and writer – mostly in that order, but it shifts from day to day. Raised Christian but drawn to Buddhism and yoga in college, I studied both seriously for many years, and have meditated daily since that time. I now teach meditation and spirituality within a non-denominational, or as I prefer to call it, ‘cross-denominational’, context. I believe that the mystic branches of every world religion – the branches that emphasize personal spiritual experience and our individual relationship to the divine – are each unique paths to the same universal truths and understanding.
