Welcome To My Path To Zen

Welcome to My Path to Zen!! This blog shares my journey from the darkest time in my life, after a crisis in my marriage, to coming out on the other side still together. From heartbreak to feeling stronger, more confident and peaceful than I’ve ever felt, is a miracle. My marriage survived and is thriving like never before. You can read more about my journey to find Zen, in the “Blog” section of this site. What I’ve learned isn’t revolutionary, but if it helped me, maybe it can help you too.

Under “Books & Things I Love” are some of my favorite & most inspiring books & products. There’s also a “Resources” section with links to websites, people & information I found helpful in my quest for a life filled with peace & love.

As a Certified Chopra Center Primordial Sound Meditation Instructor I offer individual or group meditation classes on Zoom or FaceTime. If you have questions or are interested please contact me at: mypathtozen@gmail.com
