John Wigand, MA
Owner: Fourth Heart
Fourth Heart Spiritual Direction: A safe space to explore one's existential awakening and the vagaries of modern life. Finding meaning and purpose in crisis, tragedy, illness, end-of-life, grief or simply the host of daily challenges. Trauma-informed care utilizing the tools of transpersonal and/or energy psychology, and contemplative spirituality. Nonjudgmental, non-denominational, non-religious. Exploring one's relationship with Higher Consciousness, The Divine, or Source...however one relates to the Great Mystery, to your individual concept of God.
Why Fourth Heart? The Japanese suggest we have three hearts. The first, is the heart we share with the world. It is how we wish the world to know us. With the people we care about, those with whom we feel less vulnerable, we are willing to share the second heart. The third heart is the one we reserve for only for ourselves because we fear even those who love us won't accept it's secrets. I suggest there is a fourth heart, one we bury deep within our psyche. This fourth heart along with its contents remains hidden from ourselves. That is the aim of psycho-spiritual exploration, the excavation of this buried heart. It is in this tender and gentle revelation where healing may begin.

Diane Bryant, RN
Owner: Soul Spaces
How then are we to live? The journey of this life is replete with questions, mysteries, sorrows, wonders, joys, pains and unknowns. To what must we bring attention so that we are able to receive life fully and flourish?
The practice of spiritual direction/soul shepherding broadened the landscape of my awareness of all that previously shaped me. In my fifth decade the contemplative life became an intent of my soul. Several faith streams influenced me along the the way including my Catholic upbringing, charismatic influences in college, evangelical focuses and ministry via avenues of my RN profession, faith community nursing,pastoral care and mentoring. My certification in spiritual direction, received via Christos Center in Lino Lakes, MN, further equipped me to join others in their path to know and be known.
In the gift of spiritual direction, as a prayerfully focused attentive listener, I join you in the sacred space the Spirit inhabits. Drawing upon practices of silence, prayer, Christ-centric imaginative immersion in the Gospels, the collective work of the Trinity, and intersection with God's creation, we together listen attentively for the Spirit to open the spaces within. In these holy moments I have witnessed the mother/father Love of God bring awareness and healing. This slow movement of God guides each one tobecoming fully all God intends.
Each day I am blessed to share life with my husband of many years, our adult children and our delightful nine grandchildren. I am an avid reader who also enjoys reflective writing and forming haiku poetry, cheesemaking, gardening, biking, camping, long solitary walks and encircling trees with my arms!

Carleen Sterner MD – NAMA (National Ayurvedic Medical Association)
Certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor and Practitioner
Level 2 Practitioner Certified Laughter Yoga leader
Mindful Change Life Coach
Owner: Ayurveda by Carleen (Creative Life Coaching)
Carleen is a wife, mother, friend, artist, Nature lover, outdoor enthusiast, and a healer. She graduated from the University of Calgary Medical School (Alberta, Canada) in 1988 and practiced as a Family Physician in Canada and the USA (Mayo Clinic Health System in Eau Claire, WI) for almost 25 years prior to transitioning to a career in holistic healing.
Carleen has always been drawn to integrative medicine, food as medicine, concepts of wellness and consciousness, and lifestyle measures/choices that support health and ease rather than just managing dis-ease.
Carleen’s journey to evolve her personal practice of the art and science of healing began gradually, inspired by many wonderful connections with patients, colleagues, friends, and family during her medical career. Her interest and curiosity to explore self-healing beyond the boundaries of Western medicine intensified after her own encounter with breast cancer. It was a rather major milestone that began a more major shift in direction as a healing guide in an ongoing journey to expand awareness of what “health” and wholeness really meant, and how to live more consciously with “ease”, as opposed to “dis-ease." It eventually became evident to Carleen that the structure for the practice of allopathic medicine was not working for her – she was feeling like a “round peg trying to fit into a square hole”.
Carleen began to learn more about “energy work” through a friend who was a Reiki master. She began to explore her intuition, and the whispers of her heart, and gradually move beyond what she had been taught, and thought, “healing” should look like. As she continued to clarify her purpose and passion, she became a Mindful Change Life Coach (Creative Life Coaching LLC), Reiki Practitioner (level 2), certified Laughter Yoga Leader, an Ayurvedic Body Therapy provider (training 2016), and now a NAMA Certified Ayurvedic Health Counsellor and Practitioner (graduated from the Radiant Living Online School of Ayurveda Fall 2017).
Carleen is excited to share the journey towards wellness along a path that empowers a return to wholeness and health utilizing the guidance and principles of Ayurveda. While no longer practicing as a licensed MD, Carleen feels blessed to have her training and experience as an allopathic physician to complement the journey to wellness along a path that empowers a return to wholeness and health as expressed through the principles and practices of Ayurveda (learn more here).As a “well-care/preventive care” and holistic healing system, Ayurveda embraces and incorporates both ancient wisdom and the discoveries of modern science and research. It is a constantly evolving system that seeks to support a return to, and maintenance of, our optimal state of harmony for mind-body-spirit through awareness of our diet and lifestyle choices.
Carleen believes in a whole person, heart-centered approach to understanding both our individual selves and our interconnectedness. Living LIFE with vitality and vigor, clarity and joy, compassion and kindness, love and laughter, gratitude and grace, empowers our innate capacity for healing and happiness.
Applying the principles of Ayurveda provides the structure for Carleen’s purpose to facilitate healing and transformation for herself and others; we are, after all, “all in this together”. Carleen finds her own center when she gets back to nature – which is often her form of meditation (just BEing present and connecting with senses to the natural world), gets to connect with family and friends, and when holding space for time to express her creativity (art, dancing, making jewelry). She has come to appreciate the flow yoga brings to her life and the gift of breath awareness to create an oasis of peace and calm when needed. Carleen supports learning to ALLOW what life brings while also choosing to create the life you get to experience. She welcomes the opportunity to connect, provide guidance, and hold space for the healing process for all individuals seeking to actively work on expanding their awareness to create their health and wellBEing.
