Krysta Gibson

Krysta is the publisher and co-editor of New Spirit Journal ( www.newspiritjournal.com).

Krysta has been on her spiritual path for her entire life and brings an eclectic blend of experiences and ideas to her consulting work.

She was raised in a traditional and conservative Catholic home in San Antonio, Texas. Her mother was a school teacher and her father was a carpenter. Krysta attended parochial schools and wanted to become a nurse or a nun when she grew up. (Most women didn’t think of becoming doctors then, they became nurses.)

At the tender age of 15, Krysta joined a small Irish order of nuns. She loved the atmosphere of the convent but after five years, she knew she had another calling and returned to the world, one day before her 21st birthday. Because of the uncharitable way some of the nuns treated her after her decision to leave the convent, Krysta rethought her spirituality and lived as an agnostic for the next 15 years.

In 1983, a friend introduced Krysta to the teachings of Ernest Holmes and she felt she had come home philosophically.

Krysta has worked as a drug counselor (she has a degree in psychology), employment consultant, NC machine operator, insurance agent, Mary Kay consultant, and newspaper editor.

Krysta eventually moved to Seattle, Washington and started The New Times newspaper, with no money, no rich relatives, and only one or two local contacts. The New Times grew to a readership of over 40,000 and became well-known nationally as well as in the Pacific Northwest.

During the 11 years she published The New Times, Krysta met and interviewed some of the great spiritual minds of our times, including Dr. Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Shakti Gawain, Julie Cameron, John and Jan Price, and a multitude of others. She studied many different traditions and was exposed to a very wide variety of ideas.

She eventually sold The New Times and made her way into the world of eldercare where she managed a retirement and dementia care community and eventually became executive director of a non-profit senior center.

In May of 2005, at the urging of many friends and former New Times readers, Krysta started a similar newspaper, New Spirit Journal.

Krysta offers seminars about being in business with spiritual principles and speaks about living in the now as well as about following your dreams. She has studied the tarot for 20 years and now offers tarot consultations via the telephone as well as through email. She occasionally does in-person consultations
