Start Where We Are

My husband and I are the Founding Spiritual Directors of Center for Spiritual Living Kaua`i. At this point in time, we are at what is called the time of critical mass. We are growing in numbers. The space we are in is reaching its limit, but not quite there. The rents in Kaua`i are high. […]

For the Good of the Whole, I Am…

What I have discovered through my spiritual journey through Catholicism, Mormonism, New Ageism, and finally the Science of Mind and Spirit and New Thought is that nothing is more powerful than the power of my own mind. I am living, as we all are, in a Universal Mind, Intelligence, God, the Field, that is infinite […]

Love Heals Everything

Love heals everything, so the saying goes. However, it is more than a saying; it is Truth. Love heals everything and this is why.
