LEAH SANTA CRUZ

Meditation Teacher // Bodyworker

Leah has developed a modern and accessible approach to meditation that integrates psychology and the neurosciences (the focus of her studies) with the instinctual choreography of our inner nature. After nearly a decade working at Microsoft and startups, Leah tailored her meditation practice for the day-to-day, in order to minimize anxiety and stress while improving inner happiness and quality of life. A personal odyssey that took her from “stressed out to chilled out.” As she states, “Harmony of mind and body is a beautiful concept but doesn’t mean much to someone under stress.”

Her intensive training with master teachers such as Dr. Lorin Roche Ph.D., Camille Maurine, Steve Ross and Google’s “Search Inside Yourself Institute,” make her style the perfect go-to for artists, young professionals and people with busy lifestyles.

PAUL TEODO

Paul was recently ranked #1 Yoga Teacher in LA by The Culture Trip. He specializes in Power Yoga and Mindfulness meditation. One of his unique talents as an accomplished musician is playing original guitar in open-tunings, a style he has perfected for meditative settings over the last 20 years.

Paul earned his 200hr certification at Yoga Works, under senior teachers David Kim and Jesse Schein. Internationally known teacher, Sara Ivanhoe, has also mentored him for the past 5 years. He is currently studying under Dr. Lorin Roche, Ph.D., to earn another 200 hr meditation teacher training.

Andrew Martin is a highly attuned Intuitive Oracle and Spiritual Teacher. A series of transcendent and clairaudient experiences beginning in 1995 and climaxing in 2012, left him suddenly awakened and on an accelerated path of expansion and evolution. His ability to take high level, often abstract spiritual knowledge and make it practical and accessible is bringing revolutionary insight to the spiritual community. His entertaining, compassionate, and down to earth approach assists people in unlocking powerful, lasting, change. His work is the catalyst for life altering shifts and transformation.

Camryn about herself:

I have had many premonitions in my lifetime. The most intense premonition I've had was one month before the Sept 11 attacks I was at work and I felt an overwhelming sense of doom that filled me with fear. As I looked out the window, I had a very vivid image of an airplane crashing through that window. I was so frightened and I had to take a few moments to get myself together. The second premonition was when I heard a voice tell me, "you will have cancer, but you will survive." Two months later, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had to undergo a bilateral mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation and reconstructive surgery. Three years later, I am cancer free.

In life we are always changing and evolving and the keys that unlock transformative power are the words we use. I encourage you to seek guidance by using the power of affirmations to catapult change in their lives. Change is difficult but it is often surprising and beautiful. I will be straightforward with you and tell you what I see and sense. I will encourage you not to be afraid of anything because fear is not empowering but destructive. I can help you find that inner peace you\'ve been searching for. At times, life may present you with so many problems that you just don't know what to do. But there is a way, there is always a way. There is no problem that cannot be overcome.

I've often felt as if I was put on this world to provide comfort to those in turmoil and this is my life's purpose, e.g. to heal the soul.

If you are having difficulty coping with issues, such as childhood trauma, alcohol/drug addiction in the family or divorce or health issues, let me bring you comfort and understanding to these most complex and difficult issues.

You may choose to have a psychic reading, tarot reading or angel card reading. My gifts include clairaudience and clairsentience along with the gift of empath.

When I hear your voice or "sense your vibration (in a chat session), I automatically pick up on your vibrational energy and can literally sense or hear what spirit is telling me about you. I trust what I call the "Divine Energy of Life" who has consistently been with me throughout my entire life. It feels like a force field surrounding me with a bright light of protection. Together, you and I along with this divine spirit will find solutions to your each and every problem.

DEIRDRE HADE

Deirdre first began to see energy and speak about this phenomenon at a very early age, but not until her mother, Poet - Katherine Blumer Hade, was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer when Deirdre was fifteen did she understand why. Together, the two women began developing a method of energy work to facilitate core harmony and promote internal and external healing. This lead her mother to live eleven years longer than expected.

Since then, Deirdre’s work has expanded as she developed a system of spiritual awakening and healing based on her life experience of healing and extensive study of the Tree of Life. Her practice of meditation and self-reflection for transpersonal growth is known as Radiance Healing and Radiance Meditation. She has taught this practice to thousands throughout the country, giving Radiance Journeys at the Chopra Center in La Costa, California, the Urban Zen Center in New York City, The ACADEMI of Life in New York City, the Evolutionary Healing Institute in Miami, Florida, Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York, Canyon Ranch Resort in Lenox, Massachusetts and the Woman’s Prison Association of New York.

A pioneer in the art of mystical and healing choreography, Deirdre first applied her gifts as a choreographer and dancer. Deirdre’s dance company, “Celebrations,” performed spiritual dances under grants from the Mid-South and Tennessee Arts Association. She danced with the NYC Opera, choreographed for the Banff Center for the Performing Arts, Opera Memphis and Southern Opera Theater. Deirdre choreographed and performed in the original music video of Stephen Halpern’s Summer Wind.

Deirdre's teachings include: The Radiance Tree of Life, The Radiance Light Journey to Healing, The Daughters of Miriam (DOM — A Woman’s Path to Enlightenment, A Course in Prophesy), The Kingship of Illumination (KI — Empowered Illumination for Men, A Man’s Course in Prophesy). She also partnered with Learning Strategies Corporation to create a comprehensive course on energy-work and self-healing called Radiance Pure Energy. She debuted her crystal bowl composition, The Sounds of Radiance, in the course in collaboration with the Grammy-nominated artist David Young.

The Foundation for Radiance is Deirdre’s non-profit center dedicated to healing those who have suffered from trauma, pain, or loss. In recent years, this organization has worked closely with the Women’s Prison Association of New York as well as providing Deirdre’s signature, “My Angel Pillow  healing care for children in hospitals across the country.

Deirdre is a member of the Transformational Leadership Council, the World Peace Flame, and a founding member of the Association for Transformational Leaders in Southern California. She is featured as a Love Luminary in Marci Shimoff’s book “Love for No Reason,” which has sold over 20 million copies. In Keidi Keating's new book, “The Light,” released in February of 2013, Deirdre is called a Light Luminary and her teachings on the Power of Meditation are featured alongside the writings of other modern day luminaries such as Neil Donaldson Walsh and Don Miguel Ruiz. She has been honored by the Circles of Light under the leadership of Dr. Iziz Fuqua where she received the F.L.O.W.E.R. award for her pioneering work in energy healing and, has received the honor of being knighted by the Sovereign Order of the Knights Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem for her humanitarian work.

Deirdre considers her greatest accomplishment that of being the mother of her two children Leilah Katherine Franklin and Eric Harel Franklin.

WILLIAM ARNTZ

William Arntz began his professional career as a research laser physicist, developing wave optics simulators for high energy lasing systems. After a few years of traveling he landed in San Francisco and began studying with his first spiritual teacher, Rama (a.k.a. Dr. Fredrick Lenz). Eventually the students were given the task of writing a software product/company whereupon William wrote “AutoSys” – a distributed event processor. He sold the company 2 years later and retired.

Soon thereafter William began attending the Ramtha School of Enlightenment. While there he became interested in getting some of the principles gleaned from his decades of spiritual inquiry out to the general public. He realized he could satisfy a life long dream and use the software proceeds to make a movie. That movie started life as a small documentary about Spirit and Science, but grew in scope (and budget) and became What the BLEEP Do We Know!? Producing, scripting, and directing the film, What the BLEEP was completed in 2004 and went on to become a global phenomena, with well over 100 million viewers experiencing the BLEEP.

Mr. Arntz then moved on to another film, targeted for a younger crowd, which develops some principles from BLEEP in an sociological, urban setting. The film, GhettoPhysics, and its companion book, addresses the daunting question of how a spiritual being navigates through a world obsessed with power, fame and riches.

As the 10 year anniversary to BLEEP approached William became interested in what the intervening years had produced in the way of changes in science, spirituality and public acceptance of some of the idea put forth in that original movie. And so the long awaited follow up entitled: What the BLEEP – Now WHAT! has begun…

In 1995 William Arntz sold his company and took a year off. He then devised a second successful software company, which he sold nine months after creating it. After “retiring” for the 3rd time he became interested in uniting his 4 great interests: (1) leading edge science, (2) spiritual inquiry, (3) filmmaking and (4) computers. After realizing that with the success of his two software companies he had succeeded in bypassing the onerous task of rising through the ranks, he happily (despite still lacking common sense) embarked upon the creation of “What the #$*! Do We Know?”

James Strait a retired professional pilot who started as a youthful Special Forces soldier. Along that way I flew over 100 different makes, models, categories of airplanes along with accumulating over 3000 skydives. I also owned two small companies that provided one off proto-types and testing for parachute systems, both civilian and military. After retirement in 2006 I became a talk radio host in the Philadelphia  market. I was active from 2006-2012 as the host of "Strait Talks". I recently disabled my radio hosting website. As a result of interviewing the principles of "Weird NJ" I was hired to write "Weird Missouri". I followed the first book with three novels, and am working on a fourth novel now.  As an on air guest I can speak at length and in depth about the military, aviation, skydiving, writing, radio broadcasting, publishing, and...politics.  

Writing, editing, mentoring, spiritual directing,  singing, skiing,  jewelry making,  curly-haired word nerd

I am a communications professional with over twenty-five years of experience in writing, editing, media, public relations, marketing, corporate training, event planning, and fundraising. All of these jobs were interesting and fun but I finally found my tribe when I met all the other “word nerds” in the University of Washington editing certificate program and at the Northwest Independent Editors Guild. I realized that I wasn’t the only one who loved reading the dictionary or diagramming sentences.

As an author and freelance writer-editor for nearly two decades, my articles, essays, and columns have appeared in books, professional journals, regional newspapers, newsletters, magazines, and websites. I was even fortunate enough to earn the coveted “above-the-fold” newspaper placement as well as magazine cover articles.

Recently as an editor, I have worked with amazing physicians doing great healing work and writing books about it. Years ago, I was also one of the founding writer-editors for a regional website that won an Edward R. Murrow award for Best Television Site (Small Markets). Early in my career, I produced entertainment and marketing video content, winning a “best marketing video” award from the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.

Writing and Editing Work includes:

• • non-fiction books
  • writing and/or editing website copy
  • press releases and marketing materials
  • booklets, annual reports, and executive profiles
  • corporate newsletter writing and editing
  • magazine and website articles
  • advertisements, flyers, and brochures
  • newspaper articles and columns
  • speeches
  • spiritual writing (meditations, rituals, and prayers)
  • training manuals
  • dissertation editing
  • medical/dental writing and editing

Other Work Experience I have held positions in non-profit public relations and development, broadcast television management, corporate training, and community education. Life-long mobility and resulting adaptability have given me a unique perspective on people, business, community, and the ability of one person to effect change.
