Yonatan Hoffman
The Gentle Heart of Spiritual Evolution
Dry leaves that crackle under its feet.
Grasses it chews on rain or shine.
its furry playmates scurrying come spring.
A nocturnal creature
bright eyes open to the moon,
through the branches questioning
its understanding of what is real.
Always he stood out
stopped by an invisible warmth
to wonder a moment
who it is that is looking
"Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."

More About Me:
I have been on the path of spiritual inquiry and discovery
since I was fifteen when I spontaneously began opening up to my connection with
the spirits around me. After doing all the reading I could to satisfy my
curiosity and fear about what was happening to me I found a teacher who was a
healer and a channel and began studying intently.
I have since traveled and studied all around the world with
shamans, healers, priests and intuitives; with psychologists, philosophers and
artists. In the past few years I have developed a practice based on the
stabilizing of my abilities into a grounded, controllable and precise ability
to understand, interpret and ease the energy patterns appearing in a person’s
physical, emotional and mental bodies (though this division is simply for
description’s sake). In addition, studying with shamans and spiritual teachers
I have developed the ability to communicate with spirit guides as well as
listen to the deep silence of a person’s heart and speak directly to their
evolution into peace.
Combining the intellectual with the spiritual and intuitive
I have also studied the mind/body connection from an academic perspective, graduating from The Evergreen State College with a BA in psychology. I
focused my studies on the emotion/body/brain connection, learning about the
function of the brain and body and how emotion is generated from these. I
learned the causes and effects of addiction and how addiction permeates all our
lives in one way or another – always seeking pleasure and avoiding pain,
sometimes even to our own detriment. I learned art and dance therapies along
side guided-meditation and spiritual practices from a variety of traditions.
For the past two years I have been giving professional
readings, practicing intuitive counseling and various forms of shamanic and
energy healing with individual and couples and have received remarkable
feedback. I have incorporated what I have learned about the structure of the
human mind in Western and Eastern Psychology with my abilities as a clairvoyant
and channel for Spirit.
I have practiced privately and at new-age/spiritual
bookstores and centers. In addition I have combined my talents with Maya’s and we have taught classes together where we combine
Transformational Breathwork, dance, Yoga and live food nutrition practices with
guided meditation, energy work and Deeksha (The Oneness Blessing). My hope is
to continue my work in a community setting, in an environment that supports
spiritual growth in all its forms.
