Spiritual connections have always been at the forefront of Janelle Alex’s career. During her twenty-two years as a dance instructor she worked with thousands of students individually and in small group settings. She wanted her students to feel the Divine connection through dance and come to know the power of dance within one’s soul. Focusing on how to benefit those she serves she has been a business owner since the age of 19. Her businesses are not the only place she is of help to others. She was a mentor to other students at St. Mary-of-the-Woods College during her senior year and even stayed on for 1 ½ years after graduation to mentor incoming students. She is currently the Co-Chair for the Student Liaison Board for the Global Program at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.
With a degree in Psychology she questioned how she could blend her spirituality and the science of psychology. Finding a graduate program in Transpersonal Psychology was exactly what she was looking for. Completing her graduate education in Transpersonal Psychology with a specialization in Spiritual Psychology gives her the opportunity to research, study, and gain a better understanding of Eastern and Western spiritual traditions as well as how those go hand-in-hand with psychology. It is important to her that the knowledge she gains she does not keep to herself – she wants to share it with others – she wants to give back.
Janelle Alex believes whole-heartedly that there is more than just going to work every day and paying the bills; therefore, she helps people bridge the gap between their spirituality and day-to-day living. She, also, along with her husband, Rob Alex, helps couples expand upon their relationship by accessing their combined energy and their spirituality as a couple as well as individuals.
She has co-authored a Dream Journal, Speaking Kind Words, and Joyful Couples. She regularly releases articles and maintains a daily blog at Inward Oasis.
