당신의 내면의 용을 만나보세요!© 10-13세를 위한 가이드 명상

Hello!  I am an instructor, published author, and business owner.


MY CLASSES AND COURSES:

My classes and courses are designed for higher whole brain learning to foster, develop, and expand creativity, empathy, and compassion paired with strategic logical thought processing. This method synergistically activates and accelerates formal learning comprehension, performance, and multi-task perception ultimately obtaining higher achievement and assists in advanced understanding and connection with others of all ages. 

Presently I hold classes and courses for students ages six to eighteen. Topics range from guided meditations to academic learning about meditation practices, herbs and organic gardening, and learning how to make all-natural body care products and other "make your own" including meditation symbol art. My classes and courses casual settings erase formal and rigid protocols that can stifle and limit so instead your children are relaxed, open, and can tap into their natural creative and expressive side to stimulate their innate natural intelligence.

'Meeting IKE Series' is a method I created decades ago to blend our natural higher knowledge with every day life with integration imagination tools and setting intentions when creating art and craft projects thereby creating a focused task and project completion. IKE is their "Inner Knowledge Elf" (for teens and adults I teach it is their "Inner Knowledge Essence"). This is the higher consciousness representing that all knowledgeable voice within. I design and create merchandise, tools, and games for children and families that compliment what I teach in my Meeting IKE Series classes and courses.


OTHER BUSINESS VENTURES:

I make all-natural, mostly organic ingredients body care products. There are no synthetics, nothing artificial in anything I create.

I taught a special higher learning segment to children at the Association for Research and Enlightenment in Virginia teaching children how to tap into their inner knowledge and use these innate gifts. I've partaken in numerous classes and courses over the years by various esteemed professionals in their fields on the topics of children's psychological assessment from trauma and abuse, spiritual development, healing play, as well as symbolism and intuition. Some of my mentors range from government body and corporate leaders to an Algonquin spiritual elder, and from holistic practitioners to a scientist and others as well as my mother who is a well-respected and world-renowned expert in her field. 



PERSONAL LIFE:
My husband, Charlie, our (huge) Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix dog, Aragon, and our tiger cat, MeowMeow live in Western New York about five months each year and are one block from Lake Ontario. The remainder of the year we are in sunny Florida just south of Tampa. We have a beautiful and smart eight-year-old granddaughter, Giavanna, and she visits us often. When we are in Florida we use Facetime to stay in touch. In my "spare time" I love spending time with family and friends, in my organic herbs and veggies garden, and relaxing in my northern huge backyard with towering trees and a relaxing bonfire.

I look forward to having your children in my classes. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me.
