Moving Towards Wholeness

ENDORSEMENTS FOR A PORTAL OPENS: ALL ABOUT MARY and/or Moving Toward Wholeness



"In her riveting account of journeying toward wholeness, Joy documents her travels in the realm of mind/body/spirit, traveling across the world and among worlds. She weaves these worlds into one, where dreams inform waking hours, departed souls partner with the living, and religious figures guide those who are open to them. Hers is a story told on multiple levels as she is at once a student, a seeker, a mother mourning the loss of her son, and an inspiration for others."



-- Nancy Margulies, Mindscapes



"Joy's very painful experience in losing her son Dion, caused a great affinity with the Virgin Mother who lost a son at a comparably young age. Her deep introspection caused

this closeness with all mothers who have lost sons and Mother Mary stands as the ultimate example of this experience.



This mother relating to mother over the loss of a beloved son crosses all segments of religious affiliation. For Joy, this portal opened a pathway that enabled her to have a deeply moving religious experience. Her story of this experience gives the reader a look into the sanctity of Joy's journey."



--Dr John Cavan, President, Southside Virginia Community College



"In Joy's writing we have the opportunity to learn to heal; to find process for balance; to align mind and body with intentionality in the service of deep peace. Joy shows us how to take gifts and make them our own with abiding grace. She writes in a time when the forgotten feminine voice is called upon to come forward with strength and power. In doing so, she takes the call upon herself and becomes this needed voice, modeling the

best of who she is."
