Svetlana Meritt
As a former high-profile journalist and long-time spiritual seeker, Svetlana spent ten years traveling the globe on a quest for higher understanding and her mission in life—to help the revival of interest in sacred sites and explain the nature of terrestrial energy. This modern-day pilgrimage formed the foundation for her spiritual travelogue Meet Me in the Underworld: How 77 Sacred Sites, 770 Cappuccinos, and 26000 Miles Led Me to My Soul. Svetlana has appeared as a guest speaker both domestically and internationally, featuring topics on Sacred Sites: History, Science, Myths; Dream Healing; and Legacy of Mary Magdalene. In her courses on sacred sites, Svetlana explores the long-lost science of terrestrial energies, Temple Mysteries, and the forgotten principles behind sacred sites.
