Devoted to Healing
Healing through spiritual connection and devotion for all mankind.
Welcome to my website where resources may help you discover the person you are created and called to be!
We all have a sense of the inner truth of who we really are called to be here on earth. Sometimes we lose our path, or get stuck in deeply rooted traumas, but together we can overcome!
When two join together to promote healing, self-acceptance, and growth the outcome can be very profound. I tailor each session to the unique needs of each person, and believe when a person is called to heal, they are guided to the right practitioner to help them on their journey. Whether it be deep rooted childhood traumas, or common day aliments, I’d be happy to work with you!

Become the person you are created/called to be!
There can be no higher blessing than to become aware of who you are created/called to be. Why this is so is because it awakens you to your own “inner truth” that guides you in all things to realize the path of love and service given you.
Human life is a quest to respond to the universal call from Spirit. What is crucial is to know is: How we can respond completely to Spirit in our own hearts given that we are also impacted with karmic energies of the human race that block us from being able to be receptive to Spirit?
In this meditation, you are guided to listen to the deepest yearning of your heart to be touched by your eternal loving source/spiritual family. And as you experience this, you awaken to your own unique call to embody the eternal spirit of love in serving the good of all your fellow beings.

What You Can Expect From the Body Meditation
In the way of accessing guidance that Spirit-Centered Healing offers, the body meditation can be a very powerful tool for the wholeness of mind and body. Our mind and body are the temple of our “Inner Divine.” And as we trust this source within, we will be shown with great love and compassion what needs healing in our lives.
What You Can Expect in a Heart Meditation Workshop
There can be great, spiritual blessings we experience when we meet with like-minded souls who are yearning to access the Spirit’s guidance in their lives.

What You Can Expect in a Heart Meditation Session?
In choosing to have a heart meditation session, you are opening to the wondrous space of Holy Communion with your eternal loving source/spiritual family. A powerful image for this is the “Uninjured One.” And in this space you can awaken to the intuition of yourself as “the beloved sacred spirit-person you are created/called to be.” There can be no higher blessing than this perception of yourself that opens you to experience the benevolence of life in every aspect of your life.
Finding A Way to Access Guidance
This article is crucial to understanding what Spirit-Centered Healing offers. It comes from the experience of my spiritual journey that my gut intuition tells me saved me from an early death. My quest can be succinctly stated: How can we be freed from being a victim of our past and even thrive as we reach out to the call that Life gives us?
Releasing Suffering Held in the Unconscious
The deepest need of humans in any time, any place, is to be able to release negative states of mind held in the unconscious that are a cause of suffering. What is most crucial is to know where we can turn to do this. That place is the Enlightened Ones of humanity who reveal the sacred depth of the eternal spirit of love within in our own hearts. This is what is completely free of anything that would cause harm to ourselves or others.
Cultivating the Sacred Vision of Our Humanity
What if as human beings we are brought forth from the Divine Birther of the Cosmos that sees, knows, and loves us in its own image? What if we are all meant to know ourselves as the beloved sacred spirit-persons we are created/called to be? What could it mean to experience awe and wonder as we are able to bow to who we are, to who we all are, as we are liberated from any ego sense of self-importance, or self-loathing, and are able to be truly free? And what if in this new found freedom we can be persons of friendliness and kindness towards ourselves and everyone?
Spirit-Centered Healing offer meditations and spiritual practices that aim at inner awakening and realizing that our life on earth is a call to rise to the highest potential of our humanity. It is a call to embody divine wisdom, love, compassion, loving-kindness, generosity, joy, peace, mercy, forgiveness, patience, and equanimity – all those virtues that come from living a spirit-centered life. And very significantly, Spirit-Centered Healing offers ways of cultivating intuitive guidance that promotes wholeness of mind and body that is so necessary for spiritual unfoldment in any individual’s life.
Daily Spiritual Practices
The first thing I do upon awakening is to find the meditation posture that is most conducive to awakening to what I term “my eternal loving source/spiritual family.” As I bring awareness to my breathing in and out, I then meditate on these words:
O Abba/Amma, Eternal Beloved One, Loving Creator of the Cosmos, our lives, all that is,
With all that I am, with all that I have experienced throughout my whole life, from my earliest beginning in the womb up to and including all that I am experiencing now,
In communion with my spiritual family on earth, and in heaven, this side, and the other side,
I trust completely that you see me, you know me, you love me, as the beloved sacred spirit person you create/call me to be, who I truly am in your sight.
With deep gratitude and humility,
I open to receive your outpouring divine all-permeating light, your eternal spirit of love from within the depths of my own heart.
And now I pray and listen deeply:
O, what blessing, healing, illumination do you bring forth in my life in communion with my spiritual family, that is in harmonious accord with the wholeness of mind and body that I truly need,
That I too may awaken and embody your eternal spirit of love –
Your wisdom, love, compassion, loving-kindness, generosity, joy, peace, mercy, forgiveness, forbearance, patience, and equanimity,
in serving the highest good of all, myself and everyone, as the beloved sacred spirit-
persons you create/call us to be, who we truly are in your sight?
Following these verses, I focus my awareness on my third eye/crown chakra as I use mantras and sacred verses I am drawn to, listening to what Spirit would bring forth. In this spiritual practice, I awaken to the intuition of that one outpouring eternal spirit of love radiating through me with my spiritual family for the good of all beings. My spiritual practice also includes chanting, Reiki and devotion to the Enlightened Ones I am drawn to.
I stay with this as long as I am guided, and it also leads me to radiate light to family members, to members of my meditation group, others – to the whole world. This meditation also includes doing the body meditation I have developed to bless me with good health for the whole day. After this, I finish my practice with taking flower essence, using gemstones, and chanting. Lastly I ask guidance on my supplements, which have come from accessing guidance that I need for optimum health of mind and body.

The insights developed in Spirit Centered Healing have come from Steven’s own spiritual journey, which began in his early 20s when he was touched in a powerful way by writings of Christian mystics. This led to his entering the Trappist monastery of the Abbey of Gethsemani, a Roman Catholic monastery from 1968 to 2000.
While in monastic life, Steven was involved in inter-religious dialogue and studied and practiced meditation as taught in Hinduism and Buddhism along with his Christian practice. Steven also participated in giving Christian/Zen retreats for a number of years at his monastery.
In the later part of his monastic life, Steven was guided to take leave of monastic life and search out a path of healing work because of the impact of early childhood trauma that began to manifest in his life.
Steven incorporates into his healing work his accumulated wisdom of spiritual practice, which also includes Reiki and the work of Hanna Kroeger, known as the grandmother of health. He has expressed this in his book, Innocent Perception: A New Lens for Healing (published in November 2022 on Amazon). Now in his 82nd year of life he is completely devoted to making known the wisdom in his book in service of his fellow beings.
Innocent Perception: A New Lens for Healing
Innocent Perception: A New Lens for Healing is about one thing and one thing only – awakening to the divine vision of love that creates us for the sake of love alone. We did not have to be. The entire created Cosmos, our lives, all that is, proceeds from Spirit, our eternal-divine loving source.
The guidance meditation and the body meditation in this book turn us to our eternal source/spiritual family in whatever way our heart moves us. When we are willing to follow this deep yearning to respond to the universal call from Spirit, we awaken to those unquenchable, harmonizing energies, which proceed from our own radiant divine core.
Once we sense our core of divine radiance, a door opens wide, wherein we can discern all energies in our life towards realizing the call from Spirit uniquely given to us. We know instinctively, intuitively, where we can turn in whatever we experience, to be guided for the highest good of ourselves and our fellow beings.
