I’d
like to start by saying that I realize my Bio is different from
most of the Bio’s found on Human Design Websites in the sense
that I do not hold a college degree nor did I ever attend college.
However I did attend the school of life in seeking higher
consciousness through several Master Teachers, this type of
education will never come to an end nor will it produce any type
of degree that the world might recognize. My intent is to reach
those who may have had similar life experiences and those of you
who haven’t, to share with you that if you are struggling with
anything in your life no matter what it is, there is a way
“UP”.
I was born Dec. 6, 1959 in Long Beach, Ca. USA, and at the time of
birth I was put up for adoption and placed in an orphanage and was
given the name of Dorothy, no last name, just a case number,
that’s how it was done almost fifty years ago, to this day I
have never known my birth parents. A short while later the same
people that gave birth to me gave birth to my baby brother and
sent him to live with me. Soon after he arrived we were both
adopted by a couple who where unable to bare children of their
own, I then became Lisa. My father was a very well respected
Publicist in the Motion Picture Industry and held many other
positions in the Industry as well, but his passion was in writing
and to become a published author, although it didn’t happen in
book form he wrote columns for many well known Hollywood papers
and received many awards, he even dabbled in a bit of politics.
His mother on the other hand was a very famous Journalist in the
early to mid 1900’s as well as a famous author with several
number one best sellers and screen plays, she even has a star on
the Hollywood walk of fame. I would say that about ninety percent
of my father’s side of the family were all in the same Industry
including my younger brother who has just acquired the title of
Director of Photography and has his own production company. As for
my mother, she was a housewife / mother for the most part until us
kids grew old enough to where she could venture out of the home
more, she took on a position ironically enough as a bookkeeper in
a book store. My mother had many talents whether it be art, music,
home making, photography, cooking, sewing, my god I could go on
forever, even her penmanship was the most beautiful I’ve seen to
date, she too had a few family members in the Industry as well,
but don’t let any of this fool you, we were just as
dysfunctional as any family out there, we were not special.
Myself on the other hand, grew up feeling out of place and not a
part of that world, I often said I must be from another planet,
and there were many who would agree, always referring to myself a
the “Black Sheep” of the family, although I have acquired
several good traits from both parents and for that I am now
grateful, still I had a lot of work to do on myself, I hadn’t
forgiven my birth parents for what I had referred to as throwing
me away, and I spent what seemed like a life time in pain and
anger. Many times blaming my adopted parents for all of it, just a
misguided kid lashing out. Well guess what, long story short, I
found my path, not that I was ever off it but you see I never
realized it until Human Design, because it just confirmed to me
that I have been doing, if you will, my life right the whole time,
it’s just been because of the conditioning of other’s that I
didn’t know it. Yes, I have tried everything you could imagine
like most people on this planet, when I was eight my parents sent
me to psychologists, as a teen drugs and alcohol, the alcohol
carried on through most of my adult life as well as developing
eating disorders and being suicidal, and during all those years I
tried everything I could think of from Alcoholics Anonymous,
Hypnosis, Reiki, Feng Shui, Re-Birthing, many Meditations, five
Enlightened Master Teachers and many other’s I felt were close
to it, several ashrams and meditation centers from America to
India, god knows how many groups, and so on and so forth. Now,
don’t get me wrong, all of the techniques I just mentioned were
key for me in my life and are not to be compared as less or better
than Human Design, they were all significant tool’s, as I am a
Reiki Master Teacher and in the process of pursuing Feng Shui
Mastery, and I received the name Amira from a master teacher in
India along with many meditation techniques, my beloved James
practices NLP-Hypnosis, our whole purpose through Human Design to
integrate all of it. My point being is that Human design helped me
to see that everything I’ve experienced in my life is perfect,
from my conception and however many past lives up to the present,
even if my mind and all of it’s conditioning has told me
otherwise in the past. All of the techniques I experienced have
served their purpose on some level, but for me knowing my Human
design has brought the big picture all together, all of my life
makes sense to me now. That is true healing, that is freedom…
I’m not saying it’s all a pink cloud for me now, that’s not
life, but it helps you to look at life as a challenge which has
been the point since the beginning of time, and challenge is
exciting it reminds us that we are alive, to live life is to live
the Journey. Human design just helps you to see what’s really
there so that you don’t have to stay lost in what’s not there.
If I were to make a wish for mankind, it would be for everyone to
experience Human Design just before the end of innocence in their
life, I feel that if we knew our true design there would be a lot
less suffering for ourselves creating more positive energy in the
world, because people would know how to accept themselves just the
way they are, before the conditioning becomes permanent and we
have to spend a life time or life time’s in pain and trying to
fix ourselves, because there is nothing to fix.
I first met my beloved James in 1973, he was the first person who
introduced me to meditation and the love of a Master Teacher
through his own seeking. He shared it with his parents and
siblings and it caught on like wildfire and because of my
connection with his sister that energy came through and I was
hooked. Although our paths have gone in different directions at
times we have always stayed connected, we have been together now
since August of 1999. When he first arrived at my door in 1999 he
said to me that he was looking for a partner to carry on what we
referred to then as “The Work“, preferably a female partner to
create a Yin and Yang partnership if you will, and bring it into
the work we do together. None the less I didn’t hesitate to say
yes, his energy and undeniable love for truth and higher awareness
inspired me, I didn’t even have to think about it for a second,
I needed a big change in my life, I needed to start feeling
fulfilled with myself and my work in the world and find my true
passion, and for that I will always be grateful to him as so will
many others. This is what I want to put my energy into and share
with anyone and everyone. Well here it is and I invite everyone to
check it out.
In ending, I would like to acknowledge my beloved daughter Kali,
her coming into my life changed everything for me as she was my
first true love, and because of that love it sent me on my
spiritual journey and inspired me to seek ways to heal and love
myself…
With love, Amira… Namaste to
all…
