| About Michele Michele Longo O’Donnell is a health care provider, minister and spiritual counselor. In 1965 Michele became a registered nurse and went on to complete two years of undergraduate work at
Case Western University in
Cleveland,
Ohio. There she devoted several years to the pediatric intensive care, emergency room and coronary care units.
In 1970 her second daughter was born premature with respiratory and cardiac complications that required frequent resuscitations for several months. Due to oxygen deprivation she incurred, her mental status was compromised, and she was diagnosed with severe mental retardation. That situation led Michele to study the Bible, as well as the healing works of Jesus and to find her place in it all. She began to experience many spontaneous healings during those first years, but of greatest impact was the healing of her daughter, who is today married, a mother of two lovely children, and an assistant Attorney General of Texas.
Subsequently, Michele attended a three year Bible college and was later ordained in a non-denominational, charismatic faith. She continued her quest for spiritual understanding which led to many deep and wonderful truths and experiences.
In 1973 Michele moved to
San Antonio,
Texas.A combination of life experiences and the increased knowledge of spiritual healing led her to a belief in holistic treatment for disease-related suffering. In 1975 she started the first metabolic holistic clinic for the treatment of degenerative diseases. This clinic today combines spiritual and emotional healing with physical and metabolic treatment. During the past 30 years of treating patients Michele has recognized that there are Principles of Life, that when understood and practiced, result in healing, no matter what the disease or symptom.
In 1999, Michele wrote her first book, Of Monkeys & Dragons: freedom from the tyranny of disease, outlining the life principles for healing. She shared her experiences with the hope that readers everywhere might understand the possibility of living without disease.
Due to the public's response to this book and a desire for a more in-depth explanation of these principles, in 2005 Michele wrote a second book, The God That We've Created, the basic cause of all disease. This writing explains her belief that we were never intended by our Creator to live with pain, misery and tears. Further it states that disease and suffering is a learned experience and therefore can be un-learned.
In late 2007, Michele finished her third book, When the Wolf is at the Door, the simplicity of healing. With the release of this work, Michele has finished a trilogy on the subject of healing. When the Wolf is at the Door is a “how-to” book for anyone wanting to regain healing and wholeness and live it on a constant basis. It emphasizes how to heal yourself from dis-ease., whether that dis-ease is physical, emotional, relational, financial or other. It is an instruction manual for living in freedom.
Today, Michele O’Donnell is in demand internationally as an inspirational speaker. She is the host ofa regular radio show called LIVING BEYOND DISEASE, currently heard throughout the
USA,
Mexico and
Eastern Canada, as well as XM Satellite Radio and worldwide on Internet radio. In addition, Michele has an annual retreat in the beautiful Texas Hill Country the last weekend of each February.
