Alx Uttermann

Practical Miracles: The Inner Technology of Healing

Since 2000, accomplished teacher and healer Alx Uttermann has been conducting healing workshops and trainings in a wide array of healing techniques and spiritual knowledge from ancient India.

From Singapore to California, she’s facilitated hundreds of workshops, classes, satsangs, ceremonies & other healing events – creating hundreds of skilled healers to help bring more light into the world. Over many years of intensive study at Sri Kaleshwar’s Soul University in Penukonda, South India (five years in residence), Alx gained an in-depth understanding of the stresses facing human beings, and the spiritual medicine – especially the miracles! – that dissolves them.

Since returning to the US in 2005, Alx’ work sharing these medicinal techniques has continued non-stop, culminating in the co-founding of UCBK (The Universal Church of Baba’s Kitchen) with colleague Jonathan D. Rosen in 2008. UCBK, originally based in the Santa Cruz mountains of California but now operating in Los Angeles and El Cajon (near San Diego), is a meditation, charitable, healing, and spiritual center, open to anyone of any faith, path, religion, or none.

Alx, known as “a healer’s healer,” has helped hundreds of world-wide students become top healers through UCBK’s 1-Year Healing Mastery Program (entirely online) since 2021. All of the dazzling knowledge & spiritual healing techniques she utilizes and shares comes straight from the teachings of ancient India, restored to the world by Sri Kaleshwar & the universal lineage of ascended masters he represents, including Shirdi Sai Baba, Jesus Christ, Buddha, Adi Shankaracharya, Mahavatar Babaji, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, and others.

Join us on the Seeker’s Compass with master healer Alx Uttermann on Sunday, Jan 18th at 11:00 am ET / 8:00 am PT for her transformative talk, “Practical Miracles: The Inner Technology of Healing”.

You can find out more about Alx and Baba’s Kitchen at: UCBK.org.
