Return To Essence includes the book, retreats,
and other products that support women's personal and spiritual growth,
by helping them to discover new ways to make connections to their individual
journey through life, along with their gifts to the global community. Return To Essence took shape
when Linda and Karen traveled with their friend
Ann Ladd in 2000. They imagined Return To Essence to be about the outward
journey, such as the one they were experiencing in the sacred sites
of Asia, and the inward journey that they individually and collectively
experienced as spiritual seekers. It is with great appreciation that
they acknowledge Ann for her intellectual contributions and ongoing
support for the book.
