- LOIS M. GRANT,
Ph.D.
- A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY
Lois Grant grew up in the forties and fifties and led a
"normal" life for a Midwestern girl. She married her high school
sweetheart who began to work for a major Fortune 500 company and they had two children, a
boy and a girl--"the perfect family." They attended church, she taught
piano lessons, was active in the PTA and pursued her roles as wife, mother and homemaker
with enthusiasm. The children flourished, but by the time they were in junior high
school she felt a need to do more with her considerable talents. Aptitude testing
revealed that she was suited for "medicine, architecture or composing" and she
chose to go to architecture school.
This was a very strange thing for a woman of 37 years to
do in 1975, but she earned her degree and proceeded to make a specialty of hospital
renovation work. The onset of rheumatoid arthritis at this time was troublesome, but
did not deter her. She divorced her husband in 1983 and two years later moved to
Atlanta, Georgia, and remarried.
Always an avid reader, she was led to explore astrology
first, then moved to other spiritual interests with the primary goal of healing her
arthritis. The story of her personal growth and spiritual as well as physical
healing are the subjects of her book, Spirit at Work, A Journey of Healing.
She demonstrates that there are alternative healing modalities which can bring about
desired results without the side effects of traditional Western medicine. She feels
strongly that healing takes place from the inside out. She says,
"My experience of
healing my rheumatoid arthritis has been a dramatic and touching story of pain,
desperation and deformity. Frustration with Western medicine, which was poisoning my
body and offering little more than symptomatic alleviation, brought me to the path of
spiritual growth and inner healing. I have explored many alternative healing methods
and sought advice from psychics, channels and the angels."
Since writing Spirit at Work, Lois has retired
from architecture to teach workshops and classes, to counsel those who wish to heal
themselves, and to write more books. She has been interviewed on numerous radio and
television programs on her book tour which took her to Chicago, Boston, Providence and Los
Angeles, as well as Atlanta. She has earned a Ph.D. in Holistic Counseling.
She has named her new company Angelic Beings of Light Enterprises, Inc.
A.B.L.E. because she
was very disabled, but now she is able.
Lois lives with her husband and two cats in Atlanta,
Georgia.
