Something About Me
Ever since my teenage years, I have been intrigued and curious to understand about myself, human nature and the mystery of life. I am passionate to grow and evolve as a person and discover about Life.
I started my exploration mainly with Buddhism and other religious faiths. During the process, I began to broaden my perspective and gradually incline towards spirituality and spiritual growth.
A significant milestone marked my life when I resigned as a bank officer after working for 20 years and embarked on the journey as an early childhood educator. In 2004, I became a pioneer in Singapore as an early childhood educator using the Waldorf pedagogy, which is based on Anthroposophy. My exposure and experiences as a Waldorf educator not only gave me much joy in serving young children, but also allowed me to better understand myself and grow spiritually.
Another major process began in my life when I started to learn under Teacher Hwee-Meng, founder of School of Inner Work. I began to “fall in love with myself” – to be amazed and inspired by my full potentiality as a human; and to uncover more of my True Self, unique, precious and beautiful.
Teacher Hwee-Meng’s life and teachings have inspired and shown me a clearer and deeper dimension into spirituality and spiritual growth. Inner work helps me to strengthen myself to continue on this journey of Going Home to my True Self.
It is indeed an affinity with you if I can provide a Sanctuary for you to nurture the latent seeds within so that you can flower in colourful hues of Love, Light and Courage and much more….
May I have the honour of doing so in the private (Soul In Wonderment) sessions.
