How it All Started
In 2016, my 15-month-old daughter (who had been walking since her first birthday) was suddenly not able to walk. The doctors and nurses could not give me an answer. I was desperate and reached out to a friend who did energy healing. The experience that followed that day shaped my journey.
People ask how I got my start with Reiki - and I tell anyone that asks, “I wanted to debunk it all”. My mind could not believe what it could not see. The experience in healing my daughter had opened a piece of me that I wasn’t ready to comprehend.
The harder I tried to find holes in this theory and timeless method, the more I arrived to how concrete its principles were. Rooted in ancient practice and wisdom - it works so simply and completely. I was captivated by this learning and dove in! By 2019 I had completed my Master’s level (twice). I was apprenticed under two different Master’s who taught very differently - both effective and incredible. I was thirsty for knowledge, more understanding. From here, the progression was natural. I trained in Access Consciousness - The Bars, I hold certifications in EFT, Emotion Code, Bio Magnetic and crystal therapy, Hopi Ear Candling, complete with years of psychic and mediumship training. Most recently, I became a registered Craniosacral Therapist - level 2 (CST-2). I also studied practical herbalism and aromatherapy.
The foundations that I work from are simple and effective. Every ailment, illness or pain is a message from the body - asking to be heard. When illness and pain present it can often be trapped emotion. By moving the body into still point (a deep therapeutic state) we can relax the nervous system and gain access to innate bodily wisdom and information. The body moves from fight or flight, from the red into the yellow, ultimately into the green - where we can move stagnant energy and create space.
Grief, trauma, burn out and prolonged stress tax our body to the point of over function. Here, in this space we can ground into the healing frequencies of reiki principles and find restorative balance. Gentle approaches like Reiki and CST are a guidepost for what the body already knows - how to heal.
