I am drawn to creative experience within which I can fully express myself as a spiritual being . As a healer, I experience the act of compassionate listening, of “diagnosis,” through story and touch, as a kind of still and sacred art form. Within each patient I encounter the entire universe. Having practiced Oriental Medicine for nearly two decades, during the past several years my other great passions, writing and music, have resurfaced. My novel, The Ravens’ Bridge, set in Prague in three layers of time, is an exploration of what it is that can actually travel and survive through time and historical trauma. Musically, I love to sing and have just begun to play the cello. Everything that motivates me to create is literally inspired by my continually evolving awareness of my female incarnation. Whether writing, healing, or sounding music, I desire and continually seek a profound connection to the lineage of female being.
