Can't you strike a balance between your husband's and children needs and Ramadan. Do you feel that you are losing Ramadan spirit?
Join us with your questions next Tuesday, September 1 at 16:00 GMT for our Live Session “Ramadan & Women: How to Enhance Your Psychological Spirit” as we host Dr. Maryam Bachmeier to answer your questions.
Dr. Maryam Bachmeier is a Clinical Psychologist who has been working in the mental health field for over twelve years. She is also a published Researcher, Professor at Argosy University, currently teaching Forensics, works in a Sate Mental Hospital in the USA, has a small private practice and is a writer and consultant to Islamonline.net providing weekly Sunday Live Sessions of General counseling in the areas of mental health, cultural, family and relationship issues, and more.
Dr. Maryam is a revert who came to Islam after many years of spiritual quest. She considers herself a revert because her personal spiritual quest brought her right back to where she started, and increased her awareness of her original state of being, Islam. The journey that she traveled as the simplicity of Islam came to light for her, included the study of the history of religion both East and West, cultural anthropology, and comparative religions. This journey of re-discovery began at age eight and she has been writing about her journey since this “awakening”. She actually declared Shahada many years later when she found that Islam embraced the truths she came to know in her heart and provided the vehicle and practices through which she could continue to grow as a spiritual and created being.
Since declaring Shahada and becoming a member of the Muslim community she has learned about the practice, and how to make the practice of Islam her regular way of life.
She is dedicated to helping others overcome obstacles to the successful practice of Islam and being a friend along their personal journey. Obstacles to the successful practice of Islam can be environmentally and externally based, or they can be inner obstacles. Dr. Bachmeier has a doctorate in clinical psychology and is not a scholar of Islamic jurisprudence or Sharia, rather, she is your friend and is very happy to talk with you.
