MY JOURNEY
When I was younger, I pictured myself with 3 children while working as a spiritually oriented psychotherapist. I was blessed with a beautiful baby boy in 1984 and life was going the way that I had planned… until it didn’t.
After 4 miscarriages, I found myself depressed and extremely vulnerable as I looked at a picture of life that was much different than the one I had imagined. To say the least, I was shaken up when my life suddenly began to go down a different path. I was mystified and profoundly perplexed; I dove down into the deepest recesses of my soul to discover the resilience that I always had identified with but that was hidden during these traumatic periods of time.
MEDITATION SAVED MY LIFE
Meditation saved my life. I went to therapy, studied with many spiritual teachers, used essential oils, went to hundreds of alternative healing retreats and workshops—I was a workshop and personal growth junkie. I developed a better nutritional lifestyle, read tons of woo woo and healing books, practiced yoga, and was able to move back into a peaceful and balanced life. A new me, a more real me and a more compassionate woman who embodied more and more of her True Self started to rise through the ashes of a shattered heart and broken dreams.
I realized and deeply knew that I had a purpose to help people with what I had learned, although, at times, I found myself overwhelmed because it is so hard to be an exceptional mom, a working mom, and a good, soul-ful person.
FINDING BALANCE
The absolute only way that I was able to balance it all was with the tools that I learned, a supportive husband--even though he didn’t get what I was up to—dear friends, and the communities that I had access to.
SHARING THE JOURNEY
My heart’s desire is that the Metropolitan Meditating Mama community will provide you with the support you need to express your Realest, most Vibrant and Best You possible.
