Kristen Kloostra
General Biography
From a young age, Kristen felt called to serve. After receiving her BA degree in 1989 and having a brief career in Environmental Science and Marine Biology, her calling led her to passionately pursue spirituality and the healing arts. She became a certified massage practitioner in 1991, and her formal introduction to Yoga came at that time as well. She has since been immersed in various forms and aspects of Yoga, including Karma Yoga (selfless service), Bhakti Yoga (devotion and mysticism), Raja Yoga (meditation and the asana/breathing practices of Hatha and Kundalini Yoga); and Jnana Yoga (Vedantic knowledge and wisdom). She has a background in herbalism and holistic healing as well, which also incorporates the ancient healing science of Ayurveda from India.
In the mid-1990’s, she underwent a Spiritual Awakening through the grace of God and A Course in Miracles, dedicating her life to this magnificent, on-going experience. She appears in the recent documentary, “A Course in Miracles Unleashed,” a deeply moving film sharing experiences of spiritual awakening from around the world. From her home-base in Wisconsin, she travels abroad extending the light of this transformative teaching, and the limitless peace, love and joyous Self-Realization that is our natural inheritance, and indeed, the true goal of all Yoga.
