About Susan
Though Susan studied psychology, dance, dance therapy, yoga and bodywork, it was the
study of Body-Mind Centering, developed by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen which allowed her to
bring her interests of body and mind together into a cohesive whole. For twenty years,
Susan taught at the Naropa University where she was the founding director of the Somatic
Psychology Masters program. In addition to her work in psychotherapy, Susan has
maintained an ongoing practice in meditation and yoga. She began practicing meditation in
1973 and has an extensive background in Buddhist meditation as well as many different
meditation forms, including Christian, Hindu and secular. She began teaching meditation in
1984. She has been practicing yoga since 1975.


About the Event
This will be a day of embodiment practice. A day-long retreatBook
to let our minds rest. Susan’s book “Heart Open-Body Awake”
is the best preparation for this weekend. Students and
clients comment that Susan “really walks her talk.” She is
fundamentally committed to the human struggle and to living
on this planet respectfully and sustainably.
