Clare is a journalist and author by profession and a life-long student of religious and spiritual traditions that include studies in Judaism, including Kabbalah and Hebrew classes; Christianity; Gnosticism, and the Eastern spiritual and philosophical traditions of both Hinduism and Buddhism. She is also engaged with the many esoteric traditions of the Ageless Wisdom, including the Hermetic writings and the -Theosophical writings of Mdm. H.P. Blavatsky.  Clare is eclectic in the practice and development of her theosophy, believing that all paths are connected to the One. However, she has been a practicing Buddhist for more than 20 years. Her teaching style is light and engaging, even humorous, as she encourages students to find their Truth.
