Afra
views the world from the perspective of a mystic. She believes that
there is a more fundamental state of existence, a deeper power hidden
beneath the superficialities of daily living. Afra’s own
mystical
experiences have taken her beyond the analytical mind into the realm of
heart-awareness. In directly experiencing what has been called
universal presence, God, or divine principle, Afra feels that she has
arrived at the “home within.”
Afra’s
worldview transcends
specific religious perspectives or dogmas, holding an inclusive and
universal perspective through understanding the shared basis of all
religious traditions. Based in this perspective, Afra has been inspired
by the mystical teachings of the Kabbalah and Gnosticism.
Committed
to understanding the deeper
spiritual content of traditional texts, guided by intuition and the
direct experience of spiritual truth or God, Afra offers her presence
and awakened heart to all those who seek support in the process of
letting go into a state of full consciousness.
Afra
is dedicated to living life from
the wisdom of the heart. In her work with clients she employs
mindfulness practice as a means of exploring the non-dualistic nature
of reality – ultimately neither physical nor mental, but an
ineffable state or realization.
“Afra
opens her heart to
support and encourage me on my journey. With loving-kindness and
compassion she challenges me to look at myself with all honesty and
courage and to embrace every aspect of myself - what I like as well as
what I don't like about myself. Afra has taught me that my spiritual
self-worth reflects how I view my own presence in God's eyes. She leads
me to see God's presence and truth in all there is.”
