Why We Are Here

The Mission of the Unconditional Love Connection is to present and explore unconditional love as the foundation and catalyst for every tool and system of thought that leads to healing, self-actualization, enlightenment, and spiritual growth. No matter where you are right now, you have the choice and ability to intentionally live your highest, best, happiest, healthiest, most successful and ideal life! There are many avenues, practices and tools that can lead you there. You are likely to resonate with some more than others. This site is an ongoing study, exploration and presentation of the tools and systems of thought we have found to be the most effective in empowering people and reconnecting them to their natural state of being: unconditional love.

About Dena Przybyla

I am an artist and EFT practitioner. I have been a student of spiritual and metaphysical topics since my early twenties. The first subject that consumed my attention was the Near-Death Experience, or NDE. As I read account after account of peoples' glimpses into the afterlife my appetite only grew. The information began to shape my views about the meaning of life and the notion that we all have a purpose for our lives on this planet. Love, forgiveness, compassion and the pursuit of knowledge are the highest things we can strive for as human beings.

Although I have never experienced an NDE I have read so many accounts I almost feel as though I have. I've vicariously experienced some of the same cognition and attitude changes NDE'rs undergo, which has led to my belief that anyone can reap the positive benefits of the NDE just by studying them.

I am a Reiki Master and very much respect this healing modality. However, when I learned about EFT from Cindy Wright and Dave Duran in their Manifesting Group here in Seattle I was sold - EFT and similar Meridian Therapies are the most effective energy healing modalities I have found. I was compelled to become an EFT Teacher and spread the word about these amazing healing and personal growth techniques. I believe it is also part of my life's work to combine EFT with NDE wisdom/energy and other spiritual concepts to help accelerate the energies of love, peace and happiness in my own life as well as in the lives of my students and clients.

About Mark Blair

I am an eclectic shamanic practitioner. I was called into Shamanic service several years ago. Like many “inductees”, I ignored the call.  One day, I “awoke” to the challenge and my life began to change.  Over and over, I’ve been told that my focus is “Human Enlightenment”.

I have had many wonderful teachers, many of whom came into my life at precisely the time when I was ready to accept their teaching. A Celtic shaman, a Tibetan shaman, a Peruvian shaman, a Hawaiian shaman, a life-long psychic, a Reiki Master have all been my teachers.

Each teacher was a vehicle through which my spiritual guides taught me various concepts and techniques. Each teacher taught me using their own interpretation of the lesson, their own style.

I, too, developed my own style. I don’t call the four directions like the Tibetan shaman. I don’t do
breath exercises like the Peruvian shaman. I don’t do an aura sweep like the Reiki Master. So I do these things the way they are most effective for me. I do these things the way I can be most effective helping others.

Working with groups gives me the most joy!  I love teaching, coaching, and working in circles!  I do counseling and shamanic work with individuals, but feel the energy move through me best when I am in the group setting.

Healing circles, journey circles and intention circles are my current focus. These groups are powerful because they bond with the community. Their actions support, nurture and heal the community.

Why "The Crying Shaman"?

For many years, I carried this monicker with me, a name given to me to reflect the deep compassion I feel for people who struggle in search of themselves. It also symbolizes the elation I feel when they discover who they really are!

Such is the journey of the human being! We are spectacular creatures! And we are so much more than we have ever been led to believe!

About Unconditional Love Connection

Dena and Mark both live in the Seattle, WA area. Their common belief in the importance of Unconditional Love, spiritual growth and enlightenment for a truly successful life made them fast friends and collaborators. They facilitate weekly Intention Circles in the Seattle and Bellevue areas as well as a variety of other classes, circles and workshops to help people awaken to their true power.

For them, Unconditional Love is the basis on which prayers, intentions, healing and energy work are most effective.  An awareness and a connection with Unconditional Love allows the spirit to connect to the vast power of the Universe in ways that can be used by people and practitioners.

When people are touched by Unconditional Love, energy moves. Shifts happen in people and lives change!

It is this space of Unconditional Love that allows people to grow! The mission that Dena and Mark have set out on is to create that space for the people and community that they serve!
