Connie Numbers

On Thursday, Oct. 3, Sunset River Marketplace art gallery in Calabash, N.C. will feature Dr. Connie Numbers as part of the art gallery’s Coffee With the Authors series. The event runs from 10 to 11 a.m. and includes coffee and breakfast treats.

Dr. Numbers has a Masters Degree in Social Work and a Doctoral Degree in Psychology. She has a psychotherapy practice in Ocean Isle, N.C. and is also a spiritual teacher. Dr. Numbers has made a lifelong commitment to knowing oneself deeply on both a psychological and spiritual level.

Her book, titled “The Dear Ones Letters: a Path to Growing as a Human and Evolving as a Soul,” is the culmination of 30-plus years of analysis and spiritual mentorship. The “Letters” are notable for their practical wisdom in both spiritual and psychological matters. The author says, “The Dear One letters are like the breadcrumbs leading us on the path out of the forest to help us find our way Home. They remind us of how life really works and how to feel in control of it.”

The book is uplifting in nature and uses everyday situations in a guide to becoming a happier and wiser person. With specific techniques and stories from her own life, the author offers a process for diminishing fear, understanding how life is created, finding self-love and learning how to reconnect with the self.
