In 2019, Sandi is returning to full time service – following a 7-year spiritual sabbatical and the completion of her further education.
In December 2010, Sandi transitioned due to full organ failure, and returned to a severely damaged body. She needed to learn all life skills people take for granted in their every day life. 7 years later, she was in full vital health.
In the 8th year she completed her OMT and NLP training, while building capacity to serve full time. All of the teachings she carries assisted: her return, the regeneration of her body and development of her capacity with renewed vitality. She carries this unique understanding for the potential of the fullness of the hu-man being in all service.
You can be assured she will walk with you wherever you need go, so long as you wish for her to walk by your side. And when not, she will smile and wave as you walk along your path.
