What is Spiritual Direction?
Spiritual Direction is an accompanying practice; a walking-with that transcends beliefs and brings us to the place where we are all seekers. In spiritual direction, a deepening of awareness beyond our ingrained habits and compulsions is the gift; an acceptance of who we are at this moment, coupled with the potential of a deeper level of self-knowledge and transfiguration. In conversation, in silence, in recognition and release – these are the gateways through which we can perceive and embrace the movement of spirit.
“In out-of-the-way places of the heart,
Where your thoughts never think to wander,
This beginning has been quietly forming,
Waiting until you were ready to emerge.”
- John O’Donohue
I am a graduate of the Prairie Jubilee Spiritual Direction program and a student of the Enneagram since 1990. Other aspects of my background include being a practising artist, a long-time practitioner of Qui Gong, a gardener and a lover of plants. I have studied botany at both an academic and practical level, through a degree in Environmental Studies and a certificate in Practical Herbalism. I have (gradually) come to the realization that plants are not bunches of insentient green matter, but rather have an intelligence and ways to communicate with us. More recently, I expanded my learning into animal communication, along with exploring the more subtle realms of communicating with the elementals of clouds, water and rock. My adventure continues as my awareness expands.
