Our Spiritual Path

Healing practices are based on the 1500-year-old Sufi spiritual tradition. The faculty members are all followers of the Sufi Way, but there is no requirement to “become Sufi” in order to attend and learn.

At USHS, we understand that each of us holds tremendous potential in our hearts. We teach our students life-changing skills and spiritual practices in order to heal themselves and others through the light of divine love. Guided by our experienced faculty, you will gain tools that teach you how to cleanse your clients’ hearts quickly and effectively of fear, pain, anger, sadness, anxiety, and other draining emotions, leading to physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.
