About Steven
At the age of 24, I entered the Trappist Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani. I would say that I was not happy for many years of my life. Being touched by Christian mystical poetry awakened a place of deep happiness within me and led me to search wherein this happiness could be found. As the Spirit always connects us with what we need, I was guided to a magazine that had a list of religious orders. As I read over this it led to my deciding to enter monastic life. The sense I had when I entered this abbey was that I had exhausted all the avenues of finding happiness in this culture and that somehow happiness lay within the monastic walls.
As I made solemn profession and continued on, I gradually become very much immersed in the East/West meeting point. It was the insights coming forth in the dialogue between Christianity and Buddhism, especially among monastics in the 1980’s that captured my attention. Buddhist monks from The Dalai Lama’s order visited our monastery on several occasions and I had the opportunity to dialogue with them. I found a deep sense of purpose in being open to other spiritual traditions and in practicing meditation. Yet, as I continued on there was some place within wherein I did not feel at peace and I didn’t know why.
I know now that it was The Spirit that led me to Reiki and exploring the ways of inner healing before leaving monastic life in 2001. Since this time I have continued in this path of healing and inner transformation. I spent years healing deep emotional pain that I had buried and brought with me to monastic life. Deep-Heart Healing came forth in this process. I applied the wisdom I learned from my many years in monastic life to the ways of natural healing I learned at the school of Hanna Kroeger in Boulder Colorado.
The highest blessing I have come to know is awakening to The Divine Source within as that which is most intimate and personal to me. In this presence I have discovered the truth of who I am and my life purpose. Also, this presence has shown me the causes of inner pain and has opened up release of this pain. We all have the capacity to know Divine Presence as the Truth of our life and to access guidance from this truth (see Accessing Inner Guidance). It is our birthright. We only need to become aware of this and see what is blocking us from going forward and realizing our path of love and service that is given us. I feel it is my mission to share this wisdom with others that they may be blessed.
I met Eureka in 1994 while working as a support person for an agency that provides services for mentally and physically disabled people. As I shared the wisdom I learned with her, she found her way to inner transformation and healing. This has led to our becoming deep spiritual friends. We now feel called to develop Deep-Heart Healing together. Meeting with Eureka has made me aware of how much we are blessed by helping each other grow from the place of inner wisdom we can all awaken to. We are all spiritual sisters and brothers and we are meant to use our gifts to help each other grow. I now see my mission to teach Deep-Heart Healing with her.
About Eureka
After going through a difficult divorce, I left to make a new beginning with 6 children, ventured to Omaha Nebraska where my oldest child was residing. Starting with nothing and starting life over, I took on a job at Mosaic working with mentally challenged and traumatic brain injured men where Steven and I came to meet.
As Steven shared with me the spiritual wisdom he learned over many years, I began my journey of inner healing. As I stayed with this, great healing emerged which took five long years of self-realization and inner releasing of many painful subdued memories.
I healed the pains of a little child I had never before recognized to be the source of my unease. I had been drawn towards self-destructive forces by failing to recognize the healing which needed to emanate from within. People tend to look for outward quick fixes for healing, true healing starts on the inside and works its way outwards. By failing to heal myself, I was failing to be able to help others. Meeting with Steven has helped me to discover the depths of divine love within me and to access guidance from this inner source. As I progressed in this, Steven and I discovered that we were able to help each other grow by using these spiritual gifts.
It then became clear that we were to develop Deep-Heart Healing together as a way to help others. The greatest blessing for me has been awakening to the Divine Source within me. What now means the most to me is being aware of this love in my daily life, allowing it to guide me and inspire me in my relationship with others. Feeling the wonder of God’s love pass through me, sensing the presence of spiritual beings, feeling them all around me, knowing they are with me – in this the greatest levels of peace and joy have come to me. Learning of the inner child and God’s infinite love and blessings has led me on this path to Deep-Heart Healing. It is now my vision to help Steven with his mission to move forward with Deep-Heart Healing to help others realize their highest potentials.
