   About me

I have spent my entire life exploring, experimenting and testing the interconnection of body-mind-soul — the practical ways to live in a spiritual world and the spiritual ways to live in a practical world.  In order to find a way out of the pain I was in.


It started when I was young with mystery stomach problems. I lived in Rochester, Minnesota, which meant that Mayo Clinic was my local health care. But when these world-class doctors couldn’t solve the problem, I knew I was on my own.

So I started to search.

In a time way before Google, the internet or even personal computers, this meant a lot of travel and a lot of trial and error. As the years went by, I found that I didn’t care to build a career or even a family. I just wanted to find relief.

What I discovered was that it wasn’t just a physical problem. It was a mind-body-spirit problem. It was a you-don’t-like-yourself-very-much problem. It was a you-wish-you-could-stay-in-bed-all-day problem. In other words, I needed a deeper understanding of what I was doing to myself, of what I was unconsciously doing to myself, that was causing pain and misery and anxiety.

And the doctors wouldn’t have known that. Nor would they have known how to treat it.

Over the space of four decades, I have gained this deeper understanding as I have gathered wonderful tools, techniques and processes from around the world to solve the problems of misery and overwhelm, loss and stress. It takes nothing short of transformation and consciousness. But, that is what we’re here to do.

We are all the same in this challenge. And the cause of the problem is the same for us all, even if there are an infinite variety of ways it manifests in the physical world and an similarly infinite numbers of ways to implement the solutions.

I use Tarot, guided meditations and energy healing, NLP (Neuro-Linguigstic Programming) and Shirodhara because I have found these to be very gentle, soft, deep and powerful ways of bringing beauty, balance, and order into our lives.

There’s no sense of blame, or judgment in any of these modalities. Only a compassionate focus on where you are now and how you can bring yourself forward to a more joyful place, a higher vibration, a sense of liberation and freedom. Expanded consciousness.

I use life and executive coaching techniques because they help to root the processes in practical, simple, manageable, light-weight steps.
