Buddha at the Gas Pump - A podcast by Rick Archer - Thursdays
Categories:
Sarah is an intuitive energy healer (Reiki Master + more), awakening trail guide, comedian, and actor. She began her search as an anxious, atheistic insomniac who simply wanted to get a good night’s sleep. After taking up meditation, she fell down the rabbit hole of Buddhist teachings, and deeply committed to her practice. She studied Theravada and Vajrayana Buddhism, with Dzogchen eventually cracking her open. Within just a few years of practice, she began undergoing a series of profound shifts in consciousness. A Kundalini process was activated, intuition opened up, and non-physical Guides stepped in, offering initiations and support. Abiding unity eventually revealed itself, as well as the terrain beyond unity. While navigating these radical shifts, Sarah worked and created as an actor and writer/stand-up comedian, performing nightly at comedy clubs in Los Angeles. After various breaks to integrate and settle, she began taking her unique offering, The Divine Mess Show, on tour to spiritual centers, yoga studios, and theaters. Since 2012, Sarah has met with people one-on-one and in groups as an energy healer, intuitive, and awakening guide. She resonates with those who are wired a little differently: creatives, mystics, neurodiverse folks, and spiritual seekers and finders at all stages on the path. There continues to be a deepening and a maturation that is endlessly unfolding. And Sarah continues with her solo performance and stand-up comedy, along with her work in sessions and groups. She lives in Southern California.
