AMANDA
NORGAARD

 

Amanda Norgaard is a writer, a kundalini yoga teacher and the founder of ILLUMINATION. Amanda’s work is rooted in a mythopoetic ecology where she passionately weaves storytelling, mysticism and culture in her writing and teachings alike. Her work is dedicated to restoring a greater intimacy, curiosity and meaning of living life originally, freely and creatively. She takes her coffee mostly black, writes her best essays from bed and is entirely and devoutly in love with life; a love she aspires to share in her work.

She is a specialist in cross-cultural perspectives on altered states of consciousness.

ABOUT AMANDA

Hi, I'm Amanda, founder of this wild, real and deep space that is ILLUMINATION. I'm an essayist, poet and kundalini yoga teacher.
I started THE MUSES because I longed for a creative community where we could melt and merge all the wild chapters of being a woman, into one book. I'm passionated, curious and excited about a lot of things, most of all life, and this is my finest and first intention with THE MUSES.
