Barb has been a meditator for over 30 years starting with Transcendental Meditation and then a student of an intense Buddhist meditation practice since 2001. She has been actively teaching courses on Spiritual Living and Living in Oneness throughout the KW community.

Rabbi Hillel, a renowned Babylonian Jewish scholar, philosopher and teacher asked
“ If I am not for myself, then who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, then what am I?”
These words of profound wisdom have become Barb’s personal mantra giving her strength and courage to be a Light for others to become aware of their own power and Oneness.
