Susan Menanno
April 19, 2025
9:00 – 10:00 AM
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM
An active participant in Earth Day celebrations, film festivals, and educational events, Susan is also the author of the powerful memoir “Spirit Walker”, which recounts her transformative experiences living alone in remote wilderness areas. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Anthropology with a minor in Native American Studies, enriching her approach to both ecological preservation and spiritual insight.
Susan blends environmental awareness with intuitive spiritual work. Guided by years of inner listening and wilderness solitude, she offers Soul Readings, helping individuals tap into their soul’s journey across lifetimes. Her sessions leave people with a deep sense of peace, healing, and clarity.
At the Earth Medicine Festival, Susan will offer a reading from “Spirit Walker”, opening with a grounding meditation to create sacred space and presence. Her session will include an interactive audience discussion on:
-
The importance of preserving wild lands
-
The profound healing power of solitude in nature
-
Personal stories from her time living among sentient life in the untouched wilderness
Her work is rooted in empathy, connection, and reverence for the Earth. As she says:
“There are always undercurrents to pick up and receive—to inspire. When we connect, the energy is difficult to describe… a total sense of peace washes through, bringing healing, insight, and alignment with all that is.”
