Linda Neumaier - Facilitator

Linda is a Spiritual Journey Facilitator. Having undergone a discipline of study, seminars, and personal direction received, given, and supervised, she has received a Certificate of Completion for the 1989-90 Graduate Program in Spiritual Guidance and the 1995-96 Graduate Group Leaders Program. These programs of study were taught by the internationally recognized Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation in Bethesda, Maryland. The Washington Theological Union Seminary granted the graduate credits.

She holds an M.A. degree from Ball State University, with over 30 additional post graduate hours in Education and Meditation. Continuing education has also included numerous workshops, seminars, and retreats during her over thirty years as an educator in public schools, as well as churches. She participates in a supervised Peer Group with another Spiritual Guide, and has herself received Spiritual Guidance for over 20 years. In addition, as a part of her spiritual renewal, she schedules her own monthly, personal retreat times.

She is also trained as a Facilitator of Bio-Spiritual Focusing, is a Reiki Master Practitioner, and is a Certified Infant Massage Instructor. In 1998, she studied Woman-Defined Theologies and continues to be on the Planning Committee and Faculty for this graduate level course offered at Grailville Education and Conference Center in Loveland, Ohio. She is also part of a Feminist Spirituality group named Wild Women at Northern Hills Fellowship Unitarian Universalist. She is willing to share how these disciplines and studies, for some, can add depth to a person's spiritual journey.

Linda has been a Spiritual Guide for 16 years. For now, she prefers to be recognized as a Spiritual Journey Facilitator, since the name seems less directive and more inclusive of her education, experience, and professional practice. She currently leads and co-leads retreats in the Greater Cincinnati Area. Linda will facilitate all 6 retreats. Jackie Millay, Theresa Horan-Sapunar and Jon Sapunar will share their knowledge about some of these spiritual disciplines. All professional backgrounds will be available.
