I am doing these reading for three reasons:

1. I was inspired by the recorded readings of Josh Reeves (http://www.theglobalreality.com/) and Dale Brunsvold (http://www.rudolfsteineraudio.com/).
2. Being of a silent and introspective nature, I'm hoping these readings will help strengthen and steady my voice which has become rather weak from lack of use.
3. Commitment to transmute the consumptive impulse into something creative.
