As a nurse and health educator for 15 years, she taught people about health issues, pregnancy and child care. As a homeschool parent and an active member of her church, she created curriculum and explored practical and fun ways to teach spiritual concepts to children of all ages.

In her first book, I Came From Joy!, Lorna gives parents and teachers practical and inspirational tools for helping children develop their inner awareness. The spiritual ideals presented apply to every part of our lives.

In her newest book, Scary News, 12 Ways to Raise Joyful Children When the Headlines are Full of Fear, she addresses an issue that touches all parents today: how to prepare our children for life in a scary world while protecting their hearts and minds and nurturing their natural inner joy.

Lorna lived around the U.S., in Europe, and Asia while growing up, which allowed her to experience world cultures and spiritual teachings. She now calls the Pacific Northwest home and lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband and three children. When she is not writing, Lorna is busy homeschooling and teaching classes on a variety of parenting topics.
