I have been involved extensively in spiritual work for more than 5 years.  However, my journey started 15 years ago with Zen teachings.  The book "Peace is in Every Step" launched me on the path of inner inquiry.  It was the first time I took the time to be mindful.  This mindfulness practice has stayed with me as I continued my journey and explored the vast realm of spiritual paths/practices.  I am avid mediator and have experimented with various energy tools.  I firmly believe in the power of serious spiritual inquiry and work, as well as the potential of various energetic tools to assist us on the path.
