Dear Life Cultivator,
We all turn to spiritual practices for different reasons. Some of us want to heal our physical bodies and others from emotional pain. For me, it was a dissatisfaction with life and an unnameable quest for something more.
It wasn’t until I learned to turn my focus inward, that I understood just how much I needed to heal. I’d grown accustomed to underlying anxiety, a vague decline in health, and a certain numbness. My innate sensitivity had been buried in an overachieving, perfectionistic, and externally focused career as an airline pilot.
While working through layers of buried pain, I realized I’d been seeking an effective spiritual path my entire life. As it turned out, that internal quest was the underlying force for me and my husband to sell our Canadian home in 2009 and take our baby and preschooler sailing in the South Pacific for three and half years. It’s how I found the wisdom teachings that carried me through my immense healing and transformed my life even more than my time living aboard our floating red home.
During the final year aboard our boat, we docked in Nelson, New Zealand. A woman in pink gumboots handed me a book called Voyage to the Shore. It was written by Grandmaster Yuan Tze, the founder and creator of Ren Xue and Yuan Qigong. His book vibrated in my hands. I knew I wanted an immersive experience in these wisdom teachings. I immediately signed up to learn directly from Yuan Tze by enrolling in teachers’ training.
The six-year teacher certification program also introduced me to my new community. They became my family who understood this quest – this change in life view– this language of heart connection leading to profound internal changes I hadn’t known possible.
About five years after receiving that pivotal book, the teachings and practices carried me through years of challenging times including my husband becoming ill. He was unable to work and never again able to return to his 30-year career. Doctors were mystified and unable to help for years. Between visits to the emergency room with him, I continued homeschooling our children, my own childhood trauma surfaced, and my mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer. For financial reasons, we chose to sell our home. We moved seven times in three years including 5000 km across Canada. Twice. In the middle of it all, COVID 19 arrived too.
What I know in my heart from those experiences and over a decade of practice and teaching, is that it’s all manageable. This comprehensive life cultivation system works. The inner anchor I developed over time carries me through life’s challenges. It provided me with information about life and my inner world that I’d been looking for in 1000 places. It went far beyond just a morning ritual.
In the past, certain wisdom teachings were only passed down to select students. Today, anyone can embark on the path to realization and wisdom. We can live our spiritual work while still pursuing our passions, raising families, and developing our vocations.
The path to spiritual growth takes commitment and an understanding of the laws of life.
I am committed to sharing these practices to help you cultivate your relationship with your True Self and provide you with a step-by-step process to keep you on course.
I created this program so that you may also benefit from community and mentoring which accelerate your growth, healing, and development of conscious, uplifted life.
Every one of us can choose to step onto this inward path towards enlightenment.
Enlightenment is a natural human state of true self-awareness, clarity, and unconditional love. It’s a journey that happens in real time, in real life.
With effective tools and dedication, we can create a new world - within ourselves and our communities - from the inside out.
Warmly,
Stephanie
