From Dr. Laurie Moore:

We think the world exists in frozen ways.  "She is kind. The teacher is the real deal. Today is warm. My husband is the best." However, everything is changing. Your motives, your teacher's motives, your loved one's motives are all in flux. The only opportunity you have is to return to the essence of peace now, and to make your choices within the contexts in which you are operating now. All our attempts to sum up spirituality into concepts are false safety, ways to feel secure, and ideas with which to label our identities. These will all dissipate a moment later.

I was an activist from age 7 on. With surging love in my heart, I set up social change and social service movements at school, and learning programs in the neighborhood. I appeared on the capitol steps with a petition to ban aerosols presented to Congress Man Gilbert Gude at age 14 with my friend, Jennifer. Deep inside I vacillated between a longing for Heaven on Earth and a steeping into this complete love. When I was 40, I was still immersed in numerous ways to assist humans in upliftment by opening new doors of communication within self and with other. That year, I made a spontaneous prayer to life...or rather a prayer beyond any choice surged through my heart, soul, and bones: "Please take me back to Heaven on Earth consistently!".

Soon my beloved cat's body was taken by coyotes. When he reincarnated to my amazement, taking me into spaceless, timeless oneness with all life I was humbled. Awakening after awakening became my norm. Soon I was leading Satsang seminars all over Hawaii, USA and sometimes in other countries. During this period I met Gangaji and re-united with Sh. Ahmed whose generous outpourings surged through my work, grounded in the love and wisdom of my beloved feline Guru Jessie and my beautiful Buddha-like mate Ray. Divine Mother was with me constantly, nudging and cleansing me.

Currently I am examining the reality of multiple contexts in which we live, looking at moment to moment choices we make about maintaining, nurturing, or dissolving personal and societal contexts.

I continue my work as a licensed therapist (LMFT), certified hypnotherapist (CHT) , human reader, and certified animal communication specialist. I also spend hours in uproarious laughter with friends, human and animal.

Having taught in Europe, around the USA, and all over Hawaii Islands, reaching people of many backgrounds after growing up in the Washington D.C. area and spending my twenties living in a variety of organic, spiritual, alternative, cooperative, farm communities with high ideals, I have worked with people from many walks of life. We all have the same heart at core. We all struggle with the difference between spiritual concepts and day to day life!
