About Denise Bendl, MA, MIM
Throughout my life, I have always been interested in the mystical, the spiritual and the unknown. The inner and external forces and powers that guide us to do what we do, to be who we are, fascinates me. My journey started with a book by Leo Buscaglia called Love and was followed by Henri Nouwen's book With Open Hands. Both authors were very instrumental in the development of my spirituality and who I am today. The spiritual and energetic work that was to become a major part of my healing practice and daily life was the gift of Spirit working through me and with me. I live in the mystery of the mystical and universal forces that are within me and all around me. This journey has become one of deepening into the silence, the void from which all is created. I am ever so humbled and awed by the richness of this Life and I feel so grateful for the opportunity to live each day of my life in Reverence of the Divine, the Spirit of Life through which I am eternally reborn.
In my intuitive and spiritual healing practice, I am committed to assisting others in finding their own, unique connection to the Divine.
As a graduate of the Academy of Intuition Medicine, I received my Master of Intuition Medicine Certification, as well as participated as a teaching assistant and graduate tutor. I have training and education in the following areas:

In the Buddhist tradition, we dedicate the merit of our good intentions and actions to all Beings that they may All become enlightened. In this way, I dedicate the merit of my own spiritual practice and my professional healing work, for the service, benefit, happiness, and enlightenment of all Sentient Beings everywhere.

Thich Nhat Hanh : “Breathing in, I calm my body. Breathing out, I smile.
Dwelling in the present moment, I know this is a wonderful moment.”
