We are living in an era when humanity is feeling an inner nudge — often an uncomfortable longing or maybe a life wobble or quake — that can no longer be ignored. Most humans, from multinational corporate leaders to young people from all walks of life, report generalized dissatisfaction with life regardless of outer success.
An evolutionary urge calls us to explore the limitless possibilities within ourselves, guided by a noble heart, a steady mind, and a balanced body. What we nurture internally profoundly shapes our external experiences. Through inner transformation, we skillfully renovate ourselves to embody higher consciousness and positively impact the world. We are in the early stage of Conscious Evolution, a time when humanity yearns for harmonious relationships with ourselves, others, and the Earth. Others have gone through this shift to blaze a trail. Ancient and modern teachings are merging offering a way inwards and forward that is proven. More and more humans are now awakening and cultivating curiousity. This inner education represents a new kind of learning for most, one that bridges the Classical or Newtonian and Quantum models of physics. It ignites enlightened understanding from within, achieved through the conscious embodiment of our Innate Wisdom as Being. |

Diane's Education & Experiences
that influence MLS services
Mindful Living Studio (MLS) is dedicated to helping individuals develop mindful living skills to nurture their inner resources, create purposeful lives, heal, thrive, and align with their highest vision. We aim to guide all curious people toward experiencing LifeTime Satisfaction, embracing each day fully, and finding joy in the present moment by cultivating their inner landscape of mind and body to awaken to the Presence of Being.
Overview and Evolution:
Professional Background:
Current Focus:
Early years: Though you wouldn't know I was seeking Wisdom by some decisions I made. I dropped out of high school because it was meaningless to me. I was a single (divorced) mother willing to walk away from all possessions including child support. I gratefully received government assistance for housing & education, healed from cancer, and other trauma. Every experience made me more resilient as I learned to accept and transmute suffering that gets stuck in undigested traumatic experiences. Every hard knock made me more curious about how people use their experiences to create the life they truly want.
When not in my home office and practice studio: I'm an earth sculptress creating inspired teaching gardens. I'm a world traveler as Great Mystery directs me to places near and far. I have prophetic dreams and visions. Some say I walk in the world undercover as a mystic easily perceiving things invisible to others. As a sensitive and intuitive, I perceive multidimensionally. We all can. Family: I am married to a brilliant man, Phillip, who embodies vast talent and unique expression. We have two children and three grandchildren. We share our home with cat Pippy Longstocking. Outside our front door is a little pond where gold fish and frogs joyfully swim while dragon flies flirt with the trickling waterfall. "The joy of observing people awaken as they get out of pain, discover inner direction & tap the True Nature is my passion. I created Mindful Living Studio (MLS) in 1994, to offer an enlightened perspective, transformative practices, and an empowered way of life for anyone willing to be curious about their inner world and let go of what isn't working. My unique talent is quickly detecting what's out of balance and discerning a skillful way forward for individuals, groups, and organizations."

Names are given...
dhiana was given on an inner plane when I was producing my video, Inner Moves, in 1999. It arose from Dhyana. The Sanskrit term for Meditation, the 7th limb of Yoga. When we are present with Presence we are integrated with Being. Individual & One.
About 7 years later, sage was given. My lifelong aim has been Wisdom. To know and understand. The message embedded in the names is that anyone who enters the Present Moment can embody Wisdom. I am a student. dhiana, now pronounced "DNA", represents activation of the enlightened blueprint embedded in our human DNA. |

Kunga Dolma, my Tibetan name, was given by Lama Migmar in 2016 upon bestowal of the Bodhisattva Vow. Lama also administered Green Tara Empowerment and granted permission to bestow Tara empowerment "medicine".
Kunga means to help, to serve. Guide. Just. Discipline. Adventurer. Dolma means "mother or goddess of liberation". Liberate. Free. Release. Dolma, also called Tara by Tibetans, is a Bodhisattva or Buddha of compassion and action, a protector who comes to our aid to relieve us of physical, emotional and spiritual suffering Green Tara, the female Buddha liberates. She carries enlightened frequency and active compassion. She is the manifestation from which all her other forms emanate.
Green Tara removes fear, gives protection, removes obstacles and obscurations, and transmits enlightened awareness. Green Tara supports healing and longevity. She symbolizes the night, and is associated with activity and abundance. She offers wealth and protection on a journey, as well as freedom from delusions or negative emotions. Tara is both peaceful and wrathful, beautiful and powerful, the actuality of wisdom and sensuality, compassionate and sexual, empty and yet fully manifest. In this way she transcends dualistic limitations. |

Author
During the pandemic, while I was immersed in my own healing, I wrote a chapter in two books with Kiva Publishing. In Sovereign & Jaguar Medicine I share stories about my life journey. Trials & Tribulations. Dreams & Healings. Experiences that upgrade endurance as I integrated a vast range of energetic frequencies. Versions of these stories and more will in my memoir (no release date). Both books became Amazon international best sellers!

"When you surrender to what is and so become fully present, the past ceases to have any power. You do not need it anymore. Presence is the key. Now is the key." ~ Eckhart Tolle |
