| About me |
I began my shamanic path praying to my guardian angels, and then formally with Michael & Sandra Harner & their Foundation of Shamanic Studies’ workshops. Since 1992 I have continued to learn, teach, and practice shamanism, mentored by Sandra Ingerman, and organizing weekly spiritual gatherings including our local channeler, Linda/Lee. I taught K-8 and workshops for teachers in my education profession, focusing on Brain-based Learning. I worked with Clifford Duncan, Northern Ute elder, and met Augustin, a Quechua shaman in Ecuador. My love of dance led me to study Afro-Brazilian orixas with Rosangela Silvestre, and while teaching in Bahia experienced candomble ceremonies, and “buzios” readings. My own Sacred Objects Divination basics were taught by Gogo Gretchen Crilly McKay. I have looked for leprechauns, and explored dolmens in Ireland with Tom Cowan. Layne Redmond connected me to the frame drumming world, and Imelda Almqvist to my heritage with Norse shamanism. I am interested in rock art through Carol Patterson, and Zimbabwean mbira music and dance with Rujeko Dumbutshena. Follow what brings you joy. Spirit is calling!

If you’ve let loose, quickly adjust, find your center/Counting three breaths may help you remember/You could shake like a dog when you’re really upset/Or you could sing, or dance, or play clarinet!
