Sacred Living

Spiritual wisdom increases our awareness of our habitual patterns, our relationship styles, and encourages acceptance of ourselves and others. Awareness and acceptance are two necessary stepping stones on the road to radical change.

Spiritual wisdom has helped human beings organically transform their lives for thousands of years. Spiritual wisdom is more than inspiring words. Spiritual wisdom is learning to see things as they are; without our projections, assumptions, beliefs, hopes and fears.

Testimonials

I started working with Lou and Living Stress Free in 2017 when living with PTSD was no longer sustainable for me. As a quadriplegic, I already had limited independence, and PTSD was taking the rest of it away. After my third trip to the hospital because of flashbacks, my doctor recommended I see Lou to learn how to breathe and meditate.

Healing from trauma is a slow painful sorrowful exhausting process and in my experience I am beyond grateful for having Lou be there to guide me every step of the way. With Lou’s help I have not only regained my independence but am filled with a new sense of power, confidence, connection, and love of self I never had before. I also haven’t been to a hospital since we started working together.

I have learned to meditate and it is a daily practice in my life I love. The Living Stress Free meditation practice that Lou taught me has shown me with first hand experience how to observe my mind and learn how to utilize its skill rather than getting swept in the tornado of my mind’s thoughts. With Lou’s guidance, I have processed much of my trauma, and currently experience far fewer flashbacks than I ever have before. I have also grown as an artist and a writer, and am currently shopping a memoir on trauma for publication and I have a gallery showing of my paintings this spring. Living Stress Free helped save and helped me regain my life.

Testimonials

“I started seeing Marilyn at my worst after many failed therapeutic relationships and a lifetime of chronic issues. A decade later, I’m healthy and thriving in large part due to Marilyn’s support: her compassion; expertise in trauma recovery and attachment issues; and utmost professionalism has impacted my healing in positive and significant ways. She has always seen me as a person not just a label or diagnosis.”

Pamela K

Community Advocate/Caseworker, 43 years old

“I came to Marilyn needing a different approach after years of traditional talk therapy. I was really drawn to her music therapy background. Her experiential approach to therapy has helped me work through a lot of childhood trauma. In addition to being able to process the things that have happened to me, Marilyn has also helped me reconnect and feel safe in my body. She has given me so many practical tools to help me cope with the stressors of life. Her knowledge and experience with therapy has even inspired me in my own practice.”

G.S.

Adolescent Mental Health Therapist, 27 years old

“I am deeply grateful for Marilyn’s guidance and mentorship, which have shaped my personal and professional journey. Her wisdom of inner self-work and positive reinforcement has been a source of strength during difficult times and moments of success. Marilyn is flexible in accommodating my demanding schedule and consistently supports my growth and success in personal counseling and beyond. I owe a significant part of my current success and position to her invaluable guidance; my journey would have been vastly different without her.”
