CURRENT MISSION

Generating Harmony

ABOUT ME

I'm a lover of life. I try to place emphasis on experience over materialism. I love to laugh and to give and am constantly trying to make my ego a less dominant part of my life. I'm currentl traveling the world with my partner for the past 2 years, learning from all its fascinating people and cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

The purpose of my life is to compassionately allay suffering in as many people as possible. One of the best ways to do this is by being an excellent listener and by meditating and/or doing yoga as frequently as possible. In this way anyone can enter, even if briefly, into enlightenment and realize their connection to all people, all things, all life.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I have periodically been able to enjoy private and even shared moments of enlightenment, where mind stops and greater consciousness rises up. AMAZING!

Never allow your cat to eat Stargazer Lilly flowers (they are toxic to the kidneys and can kill) or your dog to eat raisins (same thing).
