Personal freedom and well-being is possible Now. I address the systems of body, heart, and mind, using them as vehicles to gain greater insight, self-awareness, and freedom. The body system entails the physicality of life. The heart system encompasses the spacious awareness of love, compassion, and joy. The mind system holds the mind-states of emotion, thoughts, and patterned beliefs that either turn us away from Light or towards suffering - and when there is alignment and integration through all these systems healing occurs.
