Barbara E. Harris

Barbara “Bobbi” Harris was a Real Estate Broker and Certified Residential Appraiser when she was called back into the nursing profession by a life changing event. She had a Near Death Experience (NDE) in 1983 that she described in her book Conversations with Mary: Modern Miracles in An Everyday Life that was published in 1999. Some of the stories are republished in this book Manifesting Miracles: True Stories of Extraordinary Coincidences.

Her nursing career would evolve over the next three decades attaining proficiency as an adolescent psychiatric nurse, and a Certification in the coveted first group of Holistic Nurses in the country bestowed on her because of her body of work by The American Holistic Nurses Association (AHNA). Bobbi is a retired Registered Nurse and Licensed Massage Therapist who earned a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Science degrees.

She taught Energy Healing for decades and has authored Spiritual Healing a seminar course. Bobbi is a Reiki Master Teacher and a Certified Natural Health Care Practitioner. She was President of the National Association of Nurse Massage Therapists and led a movement to bring touch back into the nursing profession. She was Chair in Florida of National Conferences for The American Holistic Nurses Association, (AHNA) The National Association of Nurse Massage Therapists, (NANMT) and the Nurse Healers Professional Association (NHPA).

Her life has been filled with synchronicity that she calls Divine Coincidences. They are events that defy the odds. She has carefully recorded and stored them in her computer files and now presents some of them in her current book Manifesting Miracles: True Stories of Extraordinary Coincidences. She is also the author of the book, Conversations with Mary: Miracles in an Everyday Life, now out of print. Her articles, short stories and scholarly papers have also been published in numerous nursing publications.

Bobbi is a member of The Spiritual Writers Network and The Academy of American Poets. She also is the founder of The Live Poets Society in Sarasota, Florida. Her poems and short stories have been published in Finding Our Wings: A Collection of Angelic Short Stories and Poems, 2015, The Peacemakers and The Light Within: A Collection of Peace and Prose, 2016.
