I am not a guide and I am not a guru. I do not have your answers, and I am wary of anyone who says they do. What I can offer is company, and a little light held up to possibilities you may not have noticed — and then the room to choose for yourself. You stay responsible for your own journey. That is not a disclaimer; it is the whole point.
Much of what I do grew out of two trainings that turned out to be the same thing in the end. I hold a master's degree in psychology, and I trained as an art therapist — and somewhere between the two I learned that healing is less about being fixed and more about being witnessed.
The rest came from practice rather than study. For years I have chanted OM, until the sound became a home I could return to. I walk as a pilgrim — long roads, ordinary days, one foot after the other — and I keep a Bhakti practice, the path of devotion, which has taught me more about the heart than any book. These are not credentials. They are simply where I have been, and why I trust the things I share.

If any of the paths call to you, follow the one that does. The lotus will wait.
