I have a B.A. in Anthropology and Spanish (1970, University of Colorado), an M.A. in Education with emphasis on Bilingual/Multicultural Education (1977, University of Northern Colorado). I taught Spanish in my 20’s, then moved to Mexico and helped design an educational program for the Center for Educational Research in Mexico City. However, it was after giving birth that my life was so transformed that I was drawn to study midwifery. We moved back to the US, and I studied at the Midwifery Training Institute (1986, Albuquerque, NM) to become a Certified Professional Midwife. After returning to Mexico in 1987, I helped to found a People’s Clinic in Tepoztlán, Morelos, where I practiced midwifery and helped to train other women in their quest to become midwives. My training to practice homeopathy was acquired through a 10-year apprenticeship under Dr. Rosa Beléndez, M.D., while I lived in Tepoztlán. After I returned to the U.S., I studied for 2 years with Master Homeopath, Louis Klein, director of Luminos Homeopathy Courses, and received the title of Homeopathic Master Clinician (HMC). I have since been certified (CCH) by the Council for Homeopathic Certification, since 2007. I continue to attend conferences given by renowned homeopaths to keep my prescribing current. I am co-founder and current director of the Pacific NorthWest Homeopathy Association (https://pnwha.org). From 2001 until 2016, I studied another healing modality, Cell Level Meditation, under Dr. Barry Grundland, a psychiatrist who developed this practice and worked with it for over 40 years. It turns out, that Awareness itself is powerful and co-creative! I found this tool to be harmonious with the principles of homeopathy. We bring Awareness, Breath and Sensations in the Body together, and in the Cell of the Self, the Temple of Being, a mysterious conversation goes on for healing. We wrote a book to orient people to this practice: Cell Level Meditation: The Healing Power in the Smallest Unit of Life. (www.CellLevelMeditation.com) Within us there are amazing healing potentials, and the basis of my work is founded on this observation. I believe my work is about listening into the realm of Spirit (and so I took a 2 year course in Spiritual Direction). I see how this manifests in a person’s life in matter (body), psyche (thoughts and emotions), and spirit (living into the fullness of his/her true Self). Hahnemannian Homeopathy at its highest expression!
