Linda’s Spiritual Practice and Philosophy

Over the last twenty years, Linda has studied various mystical paths, Buddhism and Sufism. She enjoys the moving meditations of Dances of Universal Peace, sacred dances from many faith traditions. Linda’s personal spiritual practice includes sacred chants, meditation, Integral yoga, and Native American ceremony.

Linda’s work is based on the philosophy that you transform your life from the inside out ; as you change your beliefs, ideas, perceptions, attitudes, and emotions you see shifts within yourself and your outer world. You are not a victim of your circumstances, your life experiences, your upbringing, or your emotions. Life conditions change, emotions are fleeting. Who You Are as a Divine Being is constant. You choose, intentionally or not, how you show up in the world. You can choose how your Divine Essence is expressed — every day, every moment, with every relationship, in every circumstance.

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
