About Kurt
My passion is "awareness" and/or "awakening" and I love being a resource to those who want to awaken to the fullness of Life—both those just opening their eyes and those who've been at it for some time. I empathize with the discomfort of waking out of slumber, yet the rewards of an aware life are well beyond words. My approach is multi-disciplined and definitely challenging, albeit with my support.
Briefly, my psycho-spiritual background consists of over thirty years of contemplative practices and over twenty years of personal therapy. I have an MA in Applied Behavioral Science, however, my teachers have primarily been Gregory McBride, Anthony DeMello, Eckhart Tolle, and of course Life’s process itself. The emphasis in my life is Awareness (DeMello), Presence (Tolle), and "Love, Honesty, Gratitude and Forgiveness" (McBride).
Additionally, I am a father and grandfather. My first marriage was for 25 years and I am now remarried to Karen. I co-founded a business that is now about 30 years old. I love spending time n nature, particularly kayaking, hiking and discovering wild flora and fauna.

About Karen
Passion
My passion is life is to be a vehicle of Spirit to help deepen, open, and facilitate the healing and growth of others, such that they can have a more authentic and joyful life.
Background
I began my journey in the healing arts in 1986 as a body worker. My training has spanned aspects of breath-work (including Rebirthing), Structural Integration, Reiki, Energetic Healing, Visceral Manipulation, Cranial Sacral and more. For many years I served as owned/director of both a therapy center and a massage school. Additionally, I have facilitated a number of retreats, workshops and classes that addressed personal growth and healing in a variety of ways. Much of my training and my present experience has focused on Integral Counseling-a unique system of addressing the human mind, emotions, body and spirit. Currently, I am a registered counselor and an Enlightenment Intensive master.
