| The journey that lead Jill to launch Sacred Silence began as the events of September 11, 2001 unfolded. She was a woman of action, in motion, continually achieving – a true “human doing.” Though her life was satisfying and prosperous, complete with the love of family and friends and a successful track record on the job front, she knew there was more for her, on a different plane. Always at her core, Jill was a seeker. The tragedy of the terrorist attacks propelled Jill to take a pause and listen to that voice deep within. With her adult children gone from the nest and her financial obligations covered, Jill retired from the world of corporate finance and set out to learn and listen. It was time for Jill to again become a true “human being.”
Over the last five years, Jill has immersed herself in coursework and research in areas ranging from spirituality, health and fitness, yoga, eastern and western philosophy, meditation, and other subjects. She has completed programs at the New York School of Practical Philosophy, the Omega Institute for Holistic Studies and the Chopra Center. Jill studied under Deepak Chopra, M.D. and David Simon, M.D. and received her Vedic Master Certification to instruct Ayurveda (one of the oldest systems of natural health care, originating in the ancient traditions of India), Primordial Sound Meditation (a meditation technique derived from the yoga tradition of India) and Yoga, specifically, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga.
Throughout this time of continual studying and learning, Jill also began developing new and different bonds with a variety of people from diverse backgrounds. She began connecting in special ways and experienced not only new kinships, but also the realization that she was able to help and heal others as they dealt with their accumulated pressures and life chaos. Through her work with others, she witnessed what she describes as “miracle after miracle” where people transformed into their best and divine selves.
These dual tracks – rigorous study and rich and boundless connections leading to transformation – have converged into Sacred Silence, Jill’s studio where students of life come to learn and explore through programs in Yoga, Primordial Sound Meditation and Perfect Health.
