As an international journalist, she has decades of experience in the areas of world politics and social change, healing and consciousness, and spiritual transformation. In her professional journalism career, Selacia covered the White House, U.S. Congress, G8 meetings, economic summits, key heads of state such as Margaret Thatcher, and world trade talks. During her time in Washington, focusing on politics and macroeconomics, she reported on the Federal Reserve, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and Fannie Mae. This early background gave her an insider's view of today's global economic meltdown and the politics of global imbalances. The author is a pioneer in DNA intuitive healing, serving people everywhere who desire wholeness and a heart-centered life. In her global healing work, she has addressed the United Nations (S.E.A.T.), and her writings are read in sixty-four countries. This prolific writer has in her ancestral family tree the beloved writer Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The American poet Longfellow (1807-82), best known for works including The Song of Hiawatha, had a gift of simple, romantic storytelling in verse and a sound lyric sense. His works were rooted in literature rather than in life. On the other hand, Longfellow's descendant, Selacia, focuses her writing in ways that reflect real life. She has dedicated her life to spirit and to helping others connect with their true spiritual nature. Naturally intuitive from an early age, Selacia has a lifelong connection with her own inner wisdom. Her spiritual guides include a group of highly evolved nonphysical beings called The Council of 12. The loving energy of these wise guides has become an integral part of Selacia's life and work. Selacia is known on all continents for bringing The Teachings of The Council of 12 - to others in global meditation events focused on personal and planetary healing. Over the past two decades, Selacia has undertaken in-depth studies involving healing, consciousness, and ancient shamanic and spiritual paths. As part of that, she has studied with a number of great teachers, including those from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, as well as leading edge visionaries and healers. She lives in Southern California.
