About the Author

Bonnie Baumgartner M.Ed., Educational Therapist and Spiritual Therapist, was born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1941. For over 50 years she taught the emotionally challenged and severely learning disabled students and adults from grades 3-12 in Chicago, Houston Texas, and Phoenix Arizona. Bonnie has done private therapy with children, adults and families. She understands the devastation of NOT being ALLOWED. Psychology and sociology have always fascinated her in many more lifetimes than just this one. Abuse, formal and informal, or just dysfunctional abuse is dark, soul crushing behavior patterns that trigger the law of attraction and entrainment to bring you more of the same. Your compassion for YOU breaks the cycle and enables you to carry more light. EDUCATION
