Bio
 Throughout
her life Shanti Mai has studied numerous
traditions and techniques with many teachers. She now draws on all of
them
in her work, but credits the lineage of Ramana Maharshi and 17 years of
single-parenting
her four children as having been her greatest teachers.
As a child, Shanti Mai thought and spoke a lot about God and
studied metaphysical topics independently while still in elementary
school.
Born into a professional and abusive military family, her life taught
her, of necessity, to be able to "read" many different types of people,
and
forced her into the role of healer. Her first client was herself!
She graduated with a B.S., Cum Laude, in the mid-70's, planning,
originally,
to head to grad school to become a teacher of the Deaf.
Shanti Mai has worked in such diverse capacities as:
- Teacher of
Transcendental Meditation to military personnel in Europe
- Night school
German teacher for Irish Businessmen
- Lead Teacher
of the Head Start Program on a
Reservation
- Substitute teacher
specializing in problematic Junior High Schools
- Resident manager
of a group home for schizophrenic adults
- Sign
language interpreter for Deaf college
and university students
- Freelance
Editor (Isis Editing)
