Educational, Kinesthetic, Dance, Adaptive, Meditation, Yoga, Spirituality, Crafts
These inexpensive instructional books open the door and point the way for using kinesthetic techniques to teach the basic academics of math and language skills in primary education. The balance of theory and practical lessons is compiled from my research and teaching experience as a dance specialist with students of all ages and abilities. I also wrote the online texts for the Rhythmic Movement Dance Series, part of the Gateway to Educational Materials (GEM) of the United States Department of Education. My husband and I live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

God Speaks through the Holy Spirit
An interactive 198 page workbook to forge a strong union with the Holy Spirit. Meditation instructions are given to use with the more than 100 spiritual topics and subtopics on personal development, relationship issues and establishing closer communion with God. The workbook can be used in a two-fold way: by combining meditation and a topic for learning how to listen to the Holy Spirit; or by studying the topics with the intent of attaining self-realization. My first book was published in 1988. Then, on February 20, 1990, Violet Cleveland, secretary to Dr. Willis Harman of the Institute of Noetic Sciences phoned me and asked permission to submit my writings to their publication department. To follow up, I have continued writing and you will find the outcome of sincerely delving within in this new book.
