Layne has been teaching spirituality, mostly incognito, for over thirty years. She offers spiritual readings and intuitive counseling by phone and in person, teaches meditation and practical spiritual tools, inspires realization of one's true spiritual identity, offers gentle, loving assistance in deepening awareness of Living Presence and in assisting and inspiring people to live fully their precious lives.
Layne began her regular meditation practices in 1970 while living in Vancouver, BC. Her teachers include Ram Dass, Tibetan Buddhist lamas, Hilda Charlton, Sathya Sai Baba, Neem Karoli Baba, Babaji, Nithyananda, Yogananda, Gangaji, and others. Some of her guidance and inspiration occurs with teachers and guides on inner planes.
In 1972 she “died” and dissolved fully into light and energy and then returned to her physical body. Months later in 1972 she traveled to India. In early 1974 she relived her birth and pre-birth state.
In 1980 she was introduced to Rebirthing, which she calls “Integrated Spiritual Breathwork,” underwent training intensives, and became a resident breath worker and teacher at the Santa Rosa Rebirthing Center.
Layne is certified in hypnotherapy, trained by Joseph Simons, Ph.D., and is a Reiki Master, trained by Joy Metcalfe of the Dr. Usui lineage. She has studied spiritual, humanistic astrology since 1971, and finds this a valuable asset in her work with others. Layne offers Spiritual Astrology readings by phone and in person, and the readings may include synastry readings and relocation astrology.
She is currently writing several books on spirituality, meditation, and her inner journey and experiences.
Layne is also a publishing poet and a songwriter. Her poetry has been published in many journals and anthologies. Two of her poetry books are soon to be published: Last Vist and Into the Dark Mountain.
Layne performed her music for many years in the north San Francisco Bay Area. She also spent many years studying and teaching post-modern improvisational dance and yoga in Vancouver, BC, New York City, Boulder, CO, and different areas of North California.

Thanks for adding us! Don't know if you're aware of it, but there's a lovely Tibetan meditation center here in Trinity County. Well worth a short trip.
Hi Layne, Merf here (Monte's sister). I saw your comment about some photos you took of Monte at NAMM. If you would be so kind as to send them to me, I'll make sure that Monte sees them. Merf PS I tried to send you a message with my email addy in it, but it keeps telling me that you are away and not receiving messages.
Hello, thanks a lot for adding me. It is a pleasure to be here. I hope you were appreciating my overtone singing compositions and my music therapy path. Keep in touch, I'm planning to live and work in Arizona. Ciao, Raffaele Schiavo
Thank you very much, i appreciate it! If you'd like, you can help promote my music by adding one of my songs to your profile. Thanks for the friends request
Happy to report that Manifestation Station is doing its thing. I just moved to my own sacred space in San Francisco and turned into a home studio. I'll be spending the next three months here, grounding and devoting myself to creativity, after a long and blissful journey.
How have you been? I send you and James my unconditional love.
Hello Layne, sorry that I respond so late. I was on the road for some time. thank you for your beautiful words and for your love. Love and respect Parijat
Hey, cool Layne! We're glad you came by and found the old music... we're talking about 32 years old. It was like a dream playing the tunes for 200 people at the Arts Club Revue Theatre. A quite a bit like old times but from another perspective... like.... experienced!!!
Layne- Thank you for the great photography at the North State Songwriters Group Show 8/21/08. Your talent with a camera is a very valuable asset to me and my site. Thanks, again-David
