Spiritual Seeker: My Journey
Raised in Kansas, where thunder crashes and winds blow, Dennis has always been curious about the unseen forces around us. From a young age, he pondered profound questions, such as, “Where does the wind come from?” This innate curiosity sparked a lifelong spiritual journey, driving him to seek answers to deeper metaphysical inquiries.
His quest for understanding led him to earn a degree in Christian theology from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. From St. Louis, Dennis journeyed to Milwaukee where he spent 20 years doing ministry and community organizing.
A new, more introspective path opened as Dennis faced his own demons of addiction. This led to a career change and Dennis retooled for Counseling psychology, counseling clients grappling with addiction and trauma.
Dennis' journey continued to unfold as he and his wife Cyndi (Mohican) sought wisdom from Native American elders, learning and conducting sweat lodges and sacred ceremonies.
Over the past 20 years Dennis' exploration continued as he began to practice yoga including Bhakti yoga/Kirtan. Ultimately, Dennis became a yoga instructor as well as a Kirtan chant leader.
Each chapter of his journey has enriched his spiritual understanding, revealing layers of truth instead of presenting a straightforward path from error to enlightenment. Each experience, especially the tough ones, enriched Dennis' quest for spiritual insight.
The journey continues…
