The purpose of this journal is to tell the story of a journey of self discovery.
A journey which began at least forty years ago when I stumbled upon Yoga ( (literally in a Y.M.C.A.) and jokingly asked an acquaintance who was all twisted up on the gym mat, what he was doing.
" Yoga , man, it'll keep you young forever ".
And that was the magic phrase.
I sought out the teacher he recommended and began Hatha Yoga sessions in order to stay young forever !
I did not realize at the time how much my life would change. Leaving a sucessful Designing career ( Women's Sportswear ) giving up my New York apartment and relocating to a tiny shack on the beach in Florida.
My intention was to heal through touch. I began with the study of Shiatsu in
New York City and moved to Florida to advance my skills with the study of Hoshino
Therapy.
This eventually led to further training which will be discribed in the pages to follow.
It is my passion for the great Persian poet Jelaludin Rumi whom I have been reading non-stop since 1993 and which inspires me to share this spiritual journey
with all kindred souls traveling the road to self discovery.
In every line, every phrase , every story Rumi gives meaning to experiences I have had over these years of seeking. It has been a fascinating adventure which I
invite you to join Rumi and Me on the path of this Holy Fool . With the hope that it will bring insights and inspiration to perservere as you allow Rumi to guide the way to Selfhood.
