. . . and the Lotus Opened: A Memoir - Paperback

by Marie O'Neill (Author)

Whether we know it or not, each of us is on a quest to discover our true self. And the road we travel to accomplish this goal is unique for each of us. This is Marie's hero's journey of walking her path and overcoming hardship and heartache. Enduring an absent mother and a harsh, pseudo-family and surviving ongoing abuse and trauma, Marie learns to trust in The Divine and in her inner self. Releasing herself from the emotional chains that bind her, she discovers her personal power and who she is, and she learns what "Being Free" really means. Overcoming adversity, she earns an MBA, becomes a Master Level Astrologer, and obtains holistic coaching certifications. Today she leads others on their path to authentic freedom using metaphysics, astrology, Buddhism, and healing practices. Like a lotus flower, Marie has emerged from some of the muddiest conditions and blossomed into a beautiful, inspiring example to all she encounters.
