    Our Founder

    Joanne Selinske is the founder and president of Soul Source – oasis for transformation which she launched in 2008 following a three decade long
    career as a social welfare executive and advocate for human rights and protections. This shift of professional focus was the culmination of her passion to
    ease the suffering of others and become a part of the human potential movement. While the external products of her social welfare work manifest in
    systems capable of ministering to human need, she believes the intangible products have the potential to effect the greatest change.  

    “I had the privilege to work with people in communities around the globe. Regardless of the life circumstances and conditions in which they
    struggled, I found that people everywhere sought personal peace and loving and satisfying relationships based on mutual respect and regard.
    Their faith in a force greater than humanity provided comfort and hope even as they coped with extreme deprivation, loss and harrowing life
    circumstances. I discovered in the wreckage of relationships and life calamity the essence of the human spirit and was inspired to share this
    wisdom with those on the path of self-discovery and transformation.”

    Joanne’s understanding of both the emotional and spiritual dimensions of people reflects the breadth of her life long study of the causes of human
    misery and humanity’s potential for transformation.  She holds a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy/ Family Studies, a BS in Psychology.
    She is an Interfaith Minister, whose work is informed by her study and knowledge of the Eastern Wisdom Traditions. She is a Certified Hypnotherapist
    and is currently enrolled in a doctoral program in metaphysical hypnosis which is undergirding her knowledge of the interconnected nature of spirit and
    mind. A self-described student of “eternity”, she credits the work of Drs. Moody, Weiss, Stevenson, Newton, Myss and Levy with shaping the mental
    constructs through which she views the temporal world and contemplates the eternal nature of life.

    Joanne is an experienced speaker and trainer, confident before plenary and workshop audiences; academic, corporate and legislative bodies; live and
    pre-broadcast television and radio; local, national and international audiences. Her current training program focuses on helping audiences differentiate
    between external worth and intrinsic value, finding stillness and peace in a chaotic world, experiencing Source in everyday living, ways to change your
    thinking and your life and in turn change the world.  Her hypnosis practice focuses on promoting emotional and spiritual transformation.

    Like many contemporaries in the integral spiritual movement, she is committed to helping people live their spiritual beliefs in order to discover
    personal serenity, achieve interpersonal harmony and contribute to global peace. She views stillness, silence and meditative practice as key components
    of personal growth, enhancement and the gateway on the path to enlightenment.  She credits her own practice as creating the “information by-way” for
    conversations with Soul and opening up the doorway for reunion with Source.

    An author of more than a dozen social welfare publications, her current work-in-progress testifies to her passion for helping others learn to hear the
    ‘whispers of their soul’.

    Our Commitment to Act Locally, Reach Globally

    Soul Source’s founders believe that we are one people, one with Spirit, one global community. Each of us has the capacity to contribute to intergroup
    harmony, and prosperity – foundational conditions to global peace. Each of us can be an instrument of peace. The energy of our actions and intentions
    reverberate outward. Without traveling to distant places, we can affect the lives of people around the world. We can act locally and reach globally.
    Through our actions we become pebbles of peace.

           Five percent of Soul Source’s program income is donated to
                    micro-enterprise initiatives in developing nations.

    Soul Source is committed to global action that will enable people to support their families and build communities in which they can thrive. We have
    selected organizations in Asia, Africa, India and Latin-America to receive this funding in 2010.

    Close to 50% of the world’s population lives on $2.50 or less a day according to the World Bank. In many
    developing countries, most citizens earn their livings through self-employment, creating and operating
    their own tiny businesses. Without financial services to fuel growth, the poor cannot grow small enterprises
    into businesses that help them escape poverty. Micro-finance refers to financial services, such as small loans,
    provided to low-income people, usually to help support self-employment. These services help families to start
    and build "micro" enterprises, the very small businesses that are important sources of employment, income, and economic vitality in
    developing countries around the world. (Source - FINCA International).

    If you share our view in the oneness of life; if you share our commitment to universal peace, justice, compassion
    and humanitarianism; if you agree that by building bridges of understanding, humanity can realize the interconnectedness of all life;
    if you understand that we are one people, one with Spirit, one global community
    -- join us as we act locally while reaching globally.


    Our Purpose

    Soul Source is an initiative of Communitarians International Inc, a nonprofit, charitable, nondenominational fellowship founded on the principle
    of mind-body-spirit incorporated in the State of Maryland whose purpose is:

  • To unite in recognition of our unity in Spirit, with awareness that every human being is endowed with an immortal soul which has the power
    to heal, liberate and transform individuals, communities, institutions and the global society; and that direct experience of this is the basis for
    the end of suffering and for universal peace, justice, compassion and humanitarianism.

  • To engage in dialogue, worship and cross-cultural celebration of Spirit that is the unifying foundation of the world’s wisdom traditions.

  • To honor this belief by healing, educating, liberating and transforming individuals, families, communities and institutions.


  • To encourage and promote initiatives that build supports that foster health of mind-body-spirit, and linkages that unite people globally who
    are dedicated to universal peace, justice, compassion and humanitarianism.

  • To provide an environment for contemplation, meditation, energy healing, intuitive guidance, spiritual direction, counseling, other healing
    that advances understanding of mind-body-spirit.    


    Our Goal

    Our goal is simple while significant – to assist you on your personal path to health, joy and harmonious relations in hopes that we can shape
    the fate of our shared destiny. We are after all, one people, living in one global community, born of one massively beautiful, intelligent and
    conscious energy – the mystery named God.  Together we can transform our hopes and dreams into individual actions and group practices
    that prevent “dis-ease”, promote health and foster harmony within small and large groups.


    Our Values

    We believe the integration of mind-body-spirit is the foundation of individual health and serenity.

    We recognize our unity in Spirit -- the intelligent force that creates all life called God, Source, Spirit, Higher Source, The Creator, Cosmic
    Consciousness, The Universe, All That Is, Allah, Elijah, Mother Earth, Yahweh, Krishna, Tao, Brahman, Nirvana, and Jehovah.

    We understand the eternal nature and oneness of life.

    We concur that by building bridges of understanding, humanity can realize its oneness and come to respect and appreciate the
    interconnectedness of all life.

    We understand that we are one people, one with Spirit, one global community.

    We commit to universal peace, justice, compassion and humanitarianism.

    We believe that we can act locally while having a global impact; sharing the abundance, beauty and love that blesses our lives.





    Soul Source is the creation of several
    individuals who like Margaret Mead

    “never doubt that a small group of
    thoughtful, committed, citizens
    can change the world. Indeed,
    it is the only thing that ever has.”

    We have seen for ourselves that one thought, one action, one person is a pebble of peace.
