Her maternal grandmother an herbalist and her paternal great grandmother a dreamer of prophetic messages. Joan has had a romance with the spirit world all her life. She grew up in the historical family home Rose Mont in Gallatin, Tennessee. In 1978 a move to Lookout Mountain, Georgia brought her to her home for the next twenty eight years. During this time, she experienced a heart's calling to the
spiritual path. For the past twenty years she has pursued with single minded devotion the study of intuitive and spiritual development. A deep focus on Christ has been a path of soul commitment for at least the last ten years. The certification, by Joan Furman. Nurse Practitioner and Vanderbilt University faculty member, as a Reiki Master-Teacher and a Nursing Degree with Critical Care certification made possible the integration of the worlds of ancient healing and modern medicine. Referrals are from physicians in Chattanooga and surrounding areas. Clients have included doctors, lawyers, teachers and welfare recipients. Malidoma and Sobunfu Some, Barbara Brennen, Brugh Joy, and Jacquelyn Small are a few of the gifted healers who have been teachers along the way. Touring the Great Pyramid of Egypt with psychic and medium Lucille Asenco is counted as an extraordinary experience of energy transfer. Jane Hudson a remarkable channel, lecturer and teacher was a valuable guide and mentor for several years while the spiritual calling of God summoned Joan into a deeper and deeper commitment to Christ. During the past ten years, there were intervals of time when Angels telepathically communicated a sacred manuscript. These Holy writings are imbued with Christed essence for the ascension of consciousness needed to bring Christ's presence and love to earth. The writings not only have the transferable power to ascend consciousness, but contain the instruction necessary to live life for the soul's purpose. There is poetry, prose, and beautiful prayers for soul openings and spiritual advancement. This Holy Book is from the heart of Christ and will be ready for those who are drawn to read it by spring of 2007. This experience changed Joan's life in ways that transcend verbal explanation. Yet her life reflects differences that could only have been accomplished by the presence of Christ in her heart. WAY of the WHITE CLOUD is the name of Joan's ministry.
