| About Me
|
|
|
|
The beautiful landscapes of northern Ca. and the consciousness here, lured me to this area from the Midwest 12 years ago. I am inquisitive, spiritual, earthy, artistic, athletic, intellectually curious, eclectic, like to dance. I seek balance, integrity and honesty in all my relationships with self and other. I love simplicity yet my nature is complex and layered. I have been on the 'path' for many years, my studies in Theravadin Buddhism morphed into an interest in Advaita Vedanta, Kashmiri Shaivism, and more recently the teachings of Anandamayi Ma. I love mystic poetry, Jungian philosophy, Indigenous wisdom, and most of all nature. I'm not very interested in movies or entertainment unless it's real time. My priorities are artmaking, spiritual practice, and creating community. Would love to share my interests and broaden my horizons with a kindred woman on this mysterious path. |
