Healing for the Mind and Spirit
My Healing Path
Integrated Healing Techniques Used:
Usui Reiki
“Rei” comes from the word “Sun” representing Universal energy and the Soul. “Ki” like Chinese “Chi” means vital life energy force which flows through all living things.
In the West, Reiki is often viewed as being similar to laying on of hands and Spiritual healing. It’s accepted as a holistic health practice similar to accupressure or aromatherapy. This ancient healing art has been practiced in Tibet, India, Egypt and surfaced again in Japan in the mid 1800s using adapted methods acquired by Dr. Mikao Usui, hence the term Usui Reiki.
Reiki, a system of energy healing, works on the body, mind, emotional and spiritual levels. It releases blocked energy, promotes relaxation and reduces stress. Reiki has an innate intelligence and goes wherever needed in the body, helping to cleanse the body of toxins, release emotional blocks and heal trauma. Over time it can enhance intuition, meditation and personal spiritual evolution.
Shamanism
Over tens of thousands of years, our ancient ancestors all over the world discovered how to maximize human abilities of mind and spirit for healing and problem-solving. The remarkable system of methods they developed is today known as "shamanism," a term that comes from a Siberian tribal word for its practitioners: "shaman" (pronounced SHAH-mahn). Shamans are a type of medicine man or woman especially distinguished by the use of journeys to hidden worlds otherwise mainly known through myth, dream, and near-death experiences. (Michael Harner, FSS)
The shamanic practitioner works in alliance with helping spirits who have transcended this world and now exist in a state of compassion in the spirit world. Some of us refer to them as Angels. They look at our earthly situation and want to help us. These are the shaman’s spiritual allies. The shaman forms deep relationships with these helping spirits, through discipline and instruction so that the spirits may come back to earth and perform healing miracles. A shaman cannot perform healing miracles without the help of the compassionate spirits. This is why it is often the case that shamans live in animistic cultures: cultures that see that the world is inhabited with spirits, and that there are many worlds beyond our own that exist as part of a spiritual reality. Our ancestors once lived in this way with nature; more and more of us are realizing the necessity of working with the spirits to create joy and balance in our lives on earth.
Shamans work with the spiritual side of illness which often appears in ways that are difficult to diagnose by ordinary western medical practices. Some examples are fatigue, depression, localized pain that doesn’t go away with conventional healing methods, addictions, memory loss, a feeling of incompleteness or alienation, feelings of fear, or an inability to feel love and joy. The Shamanic healer works with the compassionate spirits to bring a person back into balance and wholeness.
Healing methods
Power Animal Retrieval - We all have totems and guides protecting us and calling our souls to live out their potential. However most of us have lost the ability to relate to these spirits and so they remain hidden and distant. A power animal retrieval can reunite a person with their spirit helper bringing that person more vitality and protection. This is a joyous event and often promotes positive transitions in a person’s life.
Extraction Healing - Spiritual illness can sometimes manifest itself as an intrusion to our body/mind/spirit that can create blockages and pain in our bodies. The shamanic healer extracts the illness from the client’s body freeing the client to move faster in the direction of wholeness and wellness.
Soul Retrieval - Sometimes when we experience trauma or pain in our lives, we may feel that we loose part of ourselves in the experience. From a shamanic perspective this is because part of our vital essence or soul, has left the body at the moment of impact- be it verbal or physical abuse, an injury, surgery, or fright- in order to keep the person from experiencing the full impact of that pain. It is a protection mechanism. These soul parts can frequently get lost in other realities leaving the person feeling disconnected or depleted. They might set up destructive habits in their lives to try to fill this void, or they may not be living life to their fullest potential. In a soul retrieval, the shamanic practitioner travels to the spirit world to search for and bring back the missing soul part(s). Often these soul parts are lost during childhood when the child is not fully able to protect themselves from life’s dangers. A soul retrieval can have a profound effect on a person’s well being, bringing back lost abilities, and characteristics that the person needs to live a full life.

My Mode of Practice
I integrate these powerful healing modalities to help my clients feel better in their daily lives. In working with the compassionate spirits to guide me for their needs, I may drum or use my rattle, sing and/or sometimes dance a Spirit or Soul Song. All of these things bring good healing medicine to my clients. Participation from the client is encouraged for ultimate success such as reviewing lifestyle changes for example, to allow healing to take place. My work is painless, restful and transforming. Visits are easily 60 to 90 minutes.
These healing modalities are recommended as a complementary application to encourage overall healing and should not replace any mode of exhisting or suggested traditional medical treatment.
Payment
Healing work is a process. I feel that I am blessed to work with the compassionate spirits to bring their healing power to those in need. Choosing an amount to charge my clients was not easy. I trust in the power of appreciation and gratitude and know this is a fair amount to charge for the results you will achieve with our healing sessions.
