Ardeth
Merklinger brings to Mysteries of the Mind a broad range of skills
and credentials.
Coming from a small mountain community where she attended a one
room schoolhouse, Ardeth developed a deep love and appreciation
for nature and its fragile ecology. In 1957, Ardeth had the first
of many UFO sightings and experienced a possible close encounter.
In spite of the inevitable skepticism of others, Ardeth stuck
to her story and has spent the last 40 years researching this
intriguing phenomenon. As is the case with many UFO experiencers,
this encounter catalyzed her insatiable interest in metaphysics,
the paranormal, and her own spiritual enlightenment.
With a strong background in philosophy and an uncanny understanding
of human nature, Ardeth is an accomplished and insightful public
speaker. Ardeth is a published poet and author, an interior
designer, a talented fashion designer and top model, and has developed
and taught self awareness programs for young women.
The Merklingers have been happily married for over 17 years and
between them have seven children and several grandchildren. They
have lived and worked throughout the United States and Europe
and currently reside near Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA.
