Living in Harmony with Life
A Practical and Integrated Approach to Spirituality
Lovely to meet you here. Each of our lives is a doorway to the infinite. Whatever you feel, think, and sense is life experiencing itself and consciousness experiencing itself. Suffering that is caused by believing that we are separate from the flow of life and that we exist as separate autonomous selves can be examined and transformed. Believing in ourselves as separate somebodys causes both inner and outer division. It shows up in a myriad of disturbing ways: in our individual lives, in the way we treat one another as well as other living creatures, and, finally, the Earth herself, resulting in a planetary crisis. In the midst of this, each one of us can realize that we are, in fact, one indivisible whole (even though made of individual parts) and that at the core of all form (including ourselves) is an empty center. I highly recommend checking this out for yourself!
We are all born with the desire to live our life as our natural authentic selves, as unique manifestations of pure creative intelligence. Yet we are eternally evolving beings. The answers to what we seek lie within each of us – kernels waiting to germinate. As an empath, spiritual mentor, and mystic, I offer support in your journey of self-discovery, helping to unravel and reveal whatever is impeding the natural movement of love and wisdom within your own consciousness. As these impediments dissolve, our deep inner nature begins to surface and be seen.
I am happy to share with you my work and offerings, which you can find on the Sessions page. If you would like to attend one of my public or online meetings, you will find them listed on the Events page. Included in this site are many free videos, podcasts, audios, and writings – all expressions of my own inner discovery and continuing evolution. I hope you enjoy them, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Warm blessings, Susanne Marie

“Susanne Marie is a hidden gem. Not to you, because you’ve found her website. But to the many people trying to sort through the plethora of contemporary spiritual teachers to find one who is deeply realized, unpretentious, well-integrated, empathetic, and accessible. I hope more of them find her. Unlike actual gems, that won’t diminish her value. It will just spread the light, love, and wisdom that she has so genuinely uncovered within herself, which is why I started Buddha at the Gas Pump in the first place. I am often asked who I recommend, among all the people I’ve interviewed. I usually say that there are many wonderful people, and you should go with those with whom you feel an affinity, but then I mention a few who have become good friends. Susanne Marie is high on that short list.”
~ Rick Archer, Buddha at the Gas Pump
“In my life I’ve had the good fortune of being in the presence of some luminous and wonderful spiritual guides, healers, and teachers. Susanne is the genuine article, among the finest I’ve ever known. She guides and heals with compassion, clarity, and humility. The Presence she carries and exudes is remarkably healing and deeply powerful. I can’t recommend enough connecting with her as a mentor, guide, and healer.”
