​​Only minutes from home, when Angela lived in California, between the San Fernando Valley and the Simi Valley lay the breathtaking Rocky Peak. One day, nearly a decade ago now, filmmakers Sara Landas and Holli Rae picked her up in their truck and drove to this spot where they filmed a scene for their documentary THE GODDESS PROJECT. They asked Angela about her relationship with meditation.
A willing and imperfect student on a path of spiritual transformation, Angela has been involved in various soul-tending modalities for many years now, including yoga, meditation, the Dharma, the Tao, and New Thought. And this page (named after the practice of "om" the chanted manifestation of universal vibration) is just a tiny offering to you of some of her endeavors on this wellness road, from having performed with a sacred Kirtan ensemble, to producing CDs on yoga and guided meditations, to making little moviettes in search of connections, and newest on the path ... a book.
NEW RELEASE!
Angela's newest release is a book on spiritual wellness and how it can be applied to our lives right now. Navigating the murky waters of life is a job with tenure. All the money and station in the world won’t reprieve us from the task. From living through the pandemic to being thrust into a present-day American culture whose democracy and basic humanity are being tested, life has become more surreal, more unpredictable, and more challenging every day. What tools do we have in order to cope with the uncertainty of these anxious times? How the Light Gets In offers a practical guide of 10 principles to aid in taking care of our spirits, keeping sanity, serenity, and joy in our daily arsenal, living in our authenticity, and staving off the harmful effects of the “fight or flight” mechanism of a sympathetic nervous system in the constant state of hyperdrive. This little book does not propose we shut our eyes on the world we live in, but that we cultivate stronger, more lasting practices with which to sanely take on our world, while maintaining emotional and spiritual wellness.
