The range of services include individual work as well as group work. I am a teacher, a lifelong learner, a change agent, Reiki Master/Teacher, Shaman trained energy worker and an intuitive practitioner who shares ways to weave balance into all areas of life. My strength is to challenge and engage people to see outside the box and shift from seeing problems and obstacles as challenges to experiences with value that allow for a place from which to grow and evolve.The Center for Balance often works with those who have been facing major life transitions and challenges - such as job transition, family issues, health issues, divorce, death, dying, grief and loss. People are assisted to explore their life's meaning. The process is approached on a variety of levels: spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and physically with a focus to achieve a more balanced and joyful life experience.Payment options vary: Sliding scale, energy exchange or pay it it forward ~ trusting that it will work out in a perfectly balanced way for all. https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Center-for-Balance/342668745853091

Teaching Dimensions of Self and Society, a 3 college credit online course. Students read, discuss, and think critically about written and visual texts in biography, history, and the social sciences. Beginning with the self expanding to examine the roles that culture and society serve ~ then drawing upon others’ experiences, knowledge, and representations of the world, students develop and apply 21st-century skills necessary for lifelong learning and active participation in a diverse community. Central to the course is developing an understanding of academic freedom and responsibility. I integrate relevant TED Talks, currents events and social justice issues into their online experience and discussion forums.

The bulk of the course introduces the religions of the major world civilizations: Hinduism, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. A focus of this course is to see how the central worldviews and practices of these religions are reflected in their images, architecture, texts and their influence on today’s modern world.
