About Go Green Solar Energy

It is my hope that your visit here will both inform AND inspire you to learn more about solar energy, renewable energy and sustainable living!

My Inspiration

In 2009 I became inspired to learn more about solar energy, but my real inspiration for this site is my Dad.

He was a committed and passionate environmentalist, long before it became fashionable.

Dad wrote letters to stop overdevelopment in our hometown, and dug up dandelions on our lawn (before the days of pesticides) to have fresh greens in the springtime.

He knew the names of every plant we walked by on the nature trails that we would visit on vacations to Cape Cod, and he loved to spend quiet time in the outdoors where he felt rejuvenated and refreshed by all the gifts that Mother Nature has to offer.

He and my Mom liked nothing better than to take a walk in the park or simply to be outdoors together with our family.

My Dad taught me to love nature, and I'm so grateful to him for this! I miss him and I know he would be happy to see so many people today learning about solar energy today.

Some Pictures!

I live with my husband in the beautiful high desert of Bend, Oregon USA. I just love the magnificence of the Earth here, and the nearby Cascade mountains which sparkle in the sunlight for most days of the year.

We are blessed to live on a several acres of land so that we can connect with the Earth on a daily basis. This is the view we see when we drive into town!

We love to visit the many amazing places in this area that are filled with nature's beauty. This is a picture my husband took at one of our favorite nearby rivers.

Why am I Creating This Site?

My husband and I have dedicated our lives to helping the Earth through our spiritual healing work.

Years ago, I used to offer individual and group healing sessions for people.

In recent times my work has expanded to a more global focus. Some of the work happens in our healing community, and at the present time much of what I do requires solitude and stillness.

In order to continue to support myself when I let go of doing healing sessions, I began working online and developed several websites to bring information, healing and practical support to people on a number of different topics.

I am totally not technically minded or business minded, but I do love to learn and I found a way to turn my practical life experience and interests into a way to help support our healing work. See my how to be green page for more about this.

Helping the Earth

The Earth really needs our help, and so I have been researching and studying to learn more about what each of us can do simply, every day, to create a better world for ourselves and our children, to save energy and energy costs, and to find new ways of living that are sustainable AND healthy.

Ultimately I would like to create a solar home that is as self-sufficient as possible. Solar energy and solar power are great solutions and are rapidly becoming more affordable!

Today more people are understanding our planet's environmental crisis and are committing themselves to finding more harmonious ways to live. If each of us does just a little, it adds up. I invite you to join us in learning more about solar energy!

You can get started by joining our free, Affordable Solar Energy library which contains several substantial eBooks that contain a wealth of information on how to set up a solar system in your home without breaking the bank! We will be offering an optional newsletter sometime in 2010 and our library members will be the first to know about this! :-)

Best wishes,
