ABOUT ANN

Ann O’Brien is dedicated to helping you develop your awareness, become more present in your body, find inner peace, and realize your power to create the life of your dreams. Through her commitment to and in-depth training in spiritual growth, creativity and wellness she offers a living example of a life guided by love and truth.

Ann began meditation and spiritual study over 20 years ago in attempt to understand the intuitive abilities she realized as a child. Her early studies included creative visualization, tarot, western and Vedic astrology, eastern religions, and Aikido, which she practiced and taught to children at Boulder Aikikai.

Ann discovered yoga in 1994 at Mount Madonna Center with Baba Hari Das, and continued her practice in Los Angeles with many renowned teachers including Max Strom, Annie Carpenter and Gurmukh. She completed Yoga Works teacher training in 2006.

Since 1997 Ann has honed her skills as an intuitive, healer and spiritual teacher, working with clients and students worldwide. She is a graduate of Psychic Horizons Center’s clairvoyant program, and is ordained as a minister in the Church of Inner Light. She also completed a year of training in mediumship with John Fulton, and ten years of study and apprenticeship with Michael Tamura, former director of the Berkeley Psychic Institute.

Currently, Ann is most drawn to teachings emphasizing the heart. She is a passionate student of the relationships between masculine and feminine and spirit and body, and in the creativity and sacred relationships that are possible when these polarities unite.

Ann’s creative spirit gives her practical insight into the lives of her many artistic clients. Before her life as an intuitive and teacher, she studied poetry in the MFA writing program at Naropa University, and toured the U.S. as a singer/songwriter. She has also studied and performed improvisational theater; African singing; and modern, ecstatic and African dance. Now, she guides everyone from professional performers to those simply looking to awaken their creativity.

Ann has a passion for food and nutrition and is highly attuned to the connections between spiritual, emotional and physical health. Since 1994 she has studied systems of mind-body health including Ayurveda, Chinese medicine and raw foods. Besides her own explorations, she has studied at the Rocky Mountain Institute of Yoga and Ayurveda and at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center with Gabriel Cousens, M.D.

Ann is not just someone who has done hours a day and years of spiritual practice. Her enthusiasm is contagious and she sees every moment as a precious opportunity to practice.

At this changing time on earth, Ann is a deeply grounded and inspiring guide for those who choose to live an authentic life of purpose, power, inner knowing and true love.
