Spiritual Teacher Durban, South Africa |
I am a Spiritual Teacher living in Durban, South Africa. My work emerges from over twenty years of actively seeking out teachers and teachings but my search for the Divine has been apparent to me even in my childhood.
My path has been winding and eclectic and perhaps that isn't surprising in these times when the Divine Feminine traditions are slowly re-emerging in many women. I have sat with my most profound teacher, Leslie Temple-Thurston for over 10 years and she has expertly lead me from everyday reality to the Non-Dual life of a mystic.

One of my favourite tools is astrology, which I use to take a deep look at the psychological dynamics present in your chart. This is a fun, enlightening and non-invasive way to take a deep look and move fast. I am a counselling astrologer and do not do much prediction although I will look at what kind of things could be up for you now and in the near future. There are always multiple ways the chart can play out. When we are unconscious they express as shadow/ fate and when we are conscious we can use them to facilitate and effectively navigate our individual expression on planet earth. I've been studying astrology on and off since i was
15 years old. |

The Kruger National Park is one of the most pristine wildlife reserves in the world. It’s sheer size and the richness of the animal and plant life provides an atmosphere of wildness and rugged beauty that is rare in our over-developed world.
Once you enter the park, a sense of peace and tranquility starts to become noticeable. And as you stay this sense grows and starts permeating your being. The almost complete absence of development, traffic, noise, light and electromagnetic pollution creates a rare atmosphere that both rejuvenates and puts you in touch with the wild and ancient energy which gently flows through this land. It is a perfect setting to help you remember your soul and reawaken your appreciation for the beauty of life. The setting is highly conducive to meditation and connecting with your true essence. The park’s network of low impact low speed roads allows visitors to self-drive, choosing where to go and, more importantly, where and when to stop. It is possible to park under a shady tree with the windows open, and simply sit, silently immersing yourself in the sounds of the African Bushveld. The ability to commune with the amazing animal life is exquisite to experience. Close up encounters will many different species, in their natural environment, are common and one can really tune in to them by taking time to quietly sit in their presence. The retreat will include game drives where we hope to facilitate this beautiful connection, being mindful of our inner experiences while watching, listening and simply being. |
Relationship as a Path
I think many of us are deeply intrigued by relationship and perhaps even more the potential for relationship. In order to move into a deep partnership with another being we have to know ourselves. To meet another we have to meet ourselves. |
