BIOGRAPHY
Sherri L. Zimmerman
I have spent most of my life returning to the same circles again and again trying to figure out what life is about and the "why" of it all -- in the big picture. Now that I am nearing the age of 50, I am seeing how my life is unfolding in the direction it was meant to take.
When I was young, age 9, I had a deep intense dream that would expose me to future events for myself in connection with the world at large, yet interpreting and connecting these incidents were not simple...
until a horrifying experience at the age of 19 that would forever change my life (documented in my autobio
Success After Insanity.
It was then that I realized that my dreams & reality would begin to forever entwine through the years to come.
Inspite of being in and out of mental facilites for the last 25 years (which most of the care was unacceptable), I have learned a great deal about the insides of these walls of stone where we harbor thousands upon thousands of human beings across the world; no better reason either than financial gain or a complete misunderstanding of the underlining cause based on our society's
concept of life & death.
I have also worked in a state mental hospital and have seen many lives destroyed from these places. Through their eyes, I see the time has come to begin helping them obtain peace within, by setting their spirits free.
I can tell you this:
Things have NOT changed much in 25 years when it comes to the care of those in mental hospitals as I am certain they have NOT in prisons as well,
from what I have been told.
I hope you help with this challenge by simply remembering that NO ONE is trully free until these hidden aspects of our society and within our world are revealed & we are all released from bondage of the darker side of ourselves as a collective whole.
I Have A Dream (Martin Luther King)
My dream still is to open a healing center known as
The Imagine Healing Center: A Healing Center for the Soul
to offer peace and comfort for those who struggle between the world of the physical and the world of Spirit.
I am currently a certified nurse's assistant working independently and with a local home-health nursing agency in the Southwest area of Florida and am speaking once again via the air waves, colleges and churches
to spread the word.
Shalom,
and may you always wander in the direction your spirit guides...

My guest this week is an advocate for what she calls, "TDP", or the temporarily dissconnected person. Sherri has written the book, Connection, and explores the idea of people like Van Goh, Virginia Wolff, Patti Duke, T.S. Elliot, Earnest Hemingway and many artists, writers, poets and geniuses who received messages of doom known as psychosis, paranoia and hallucinations, yet are extremely gifted as well. What is the connection between everyday people who experience psychic revelations and end up institutionalized and those who don't? Join us as Sherri shares her personal experiences growing up psychic and how she has made it her life mission to help others who are struggling with being labeled mentally ill. Sherri has written two books, had two radio shows, been on TV in the SW Florida area, and has spent the past 20 years working in the nursing field. She purchased 5 acres of land in W. Virginia in the hopes of realizing her dream to build "Imagine" a healing center for the soul. Sherri's web site is:
