Cheryl Canfield counsels individuals and groups in two Northern California locations: Santa Rosa, and the little town of Copperopolis, on Highway 4, between Stockton and Angels Camp. She is an author, peace proponent (inner as well as outer), and nationally known speaker and workshop leader.

She is the author of Profound Healing: The Power of Acceptance on the Path to Wellness, a down-to-earth account of her journey as she confronts a diagnosis of advanced cancer in 1989. Turning down proposed radical surgeries, she focused her attention on attempting to come to a place of inner peace before dying. In the process she inadvertently experienced a miracle and became well. Her subsequent reflections on physical, emotional and spiritual healing are summarized into twelve unique self-help practices so that others may use her hard-earned insights as a source of hope, inspiration, and practical advice.


President of Friends of Peace Pilgrim, a non-profit organization, Cheryl is co-compiler of Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words, a spiritual classic with over 500,000 copies in print, and compiler and editor of the book Peace Pilgrim's Wisdom, an inspiring collection of seed thoughts from Peace's lectures and writings.

With our conscious minds we can reason and decide to change certain patterns and behavior, but without changing subconscious misconceptions and disempowering beliefs, deeply ingrained habit patterns can sabotage our efforts.

As we learn to access the deeper parts of our minds we can uncover and uproot disempowering beliefs in the subconscious, the seat of memories, emotions and habit patterns; and gain confidence and direction from the superconscious, the source of intuition, inner guidance and wisdom, for the attainment of positive change and transformation.

Peace Pilgrim, whose life and wisdom are chronicled in Peace Pilgrim: Her Life & Work In Her Own Words , was a woman of extraordinary courage and conviction. She set out on foot during the McCarthy era in 1953 to walk alone across the United States. The Korean War was raging and Peace felt the most important thing she could do was begin a grass roots effort to bring people's attention to the importance of peace - not only between nations, but peace within ourselves. Peace was still walking when Cheryl met her in 1975. A master in the understanding of human nature and spirituality, she became a beloved friend and mentor until her death in 1981.

Guidelines For a Happy and Healthy Life

1. A means of livelihood which is useful to society - something you enjoy doing.

2. Inspirational things in your life - things that lift you up. It might be uplifting music or inspirational words or the beauty of nature.

3. Good living habits - regular exercise, sunshine and fresh air, food that nourishes the body, plenty of rest, and good thoughts. (Junk thoughts will affect you even quicker than junk foods!)

4. A path of service - something you do with an outgoing motive to be of service, without thought of receiving something in return.

5. Time spent alone each day in meditation or receptive silence.
