Finding Meaning in Life Transitions

Getting Started With Ligia Houben

My purpose in life is to help people transform their losses or challenges into a growing experience. This growth can be personal or spiritual, but always enriching.

We have within ourselves the resources to live the life we are supposed to live: with meaning and intention.

In my page www.mymeaningfullife.com you can have a broader description of my philosophy and the services I provide which include transition coaching and public speaking/education. I believe we all can develop the spiritual tools of forgiveness, love and gratitude and diminish the spiritual deterrents of anger, resentment and fear.

In my website you will also find my two books. Both are in Spanish with the goal of translating them to English. This goal is set for 2008!

I wish you a beautiful day and always remember your blessings...
