Connection and Purpose

Being human is a dance of finding balance between our connections and our own unique spark, our place and purpose. In Okinawa, home of more centenarians than most other areas of the globe, discovering one's purpose is a key factor to well being, and is called Ikigai.

When we align with our values and purpose, we are more content in good times, and resilient in times of stress. This in turn leads to enhanced health.

Other factors that promote well being and healing include enjoying a mainly whole foods diet (with a preponderance of local foods, fresh when possible), moving throughout the day, spending time outside, connections with friends and family, and engaging in creative pursuits.

For nearly 40 years I've been engaged in Healing Arts as a Licensed Massage Therapist, and added many complimentary tools to my Medicine Basket, including Reiki, Lightwork, shamanic teachings, Qigong, Tai Chi and Breema; and harmonic healing - including both therapeutic harp and Tuning forks. Interest in herbs and flowers led me to making over a hundred flower remedies or 'essences,' which help us align with empowering our essence and true nature.

No Mud, No Lotus

In Dr Karl H. Maret's forward to Tuning the Human Biofield, he writes "teeny reciprocal tuning forks on each cell membrane, producing either incoherent or coherent frequencies, 'changing their tune,' as it were, when bathed in coherent sound." (P 39)

Sound healer and author Eileen McKusick goes on to say: "Sound balancing is a therapeutic method that makes use of the frequencies produced by tuning forks to detect and correct distortions and imbalances within the biomagnetic energy field, or biofield, that surrounds the human body."

Healing Arts

The movement, energy and creative modalities I've studied assist in tuning our biofield, bringing us into harmony and balance. This year I'm working more deeply with creativity as a healing modality. All healing is self-healing, we choose guides and practitioners to assist us as we gather our own healing tools.

Each experience, whether in a class or one on one coaching and healing session, will be unique and customized to meet individual need. I offer opportunities to work in person or virtually, and look forward to incorporating the empowerment of Creative processes to your own healing tool kit.

You're invited to join me, and attune to your own note and compass.

Vibrational Healing

In neatly 4 decades of offering bodywork and energy seasons, I have collected many modalities and tools. Reiki and other energetic offerings are surprisingly powerful when offered remotely, which gives us the opportunity to work together wherever we are in the World! When we combine Reiki with a dash of creativity, Magïc happens! In 2005, I traveled to my favorite retreat center, Breitenbush Hot Springs for a training in the history and use of Tuning Forks both personally and in sessions. Already a harpist, I had studied using sound as a vehicle for balance and harmony a decade before. Our training centered around use of weighted forks on acupuncture points - Ohm tuners and Acutonics . Around the same time, I acquired a set of Intentions Tuners (all but one unweighted forks which are intended for use off the body) "In water and watery solids, such as the human body, sound travels over 4x faster in the form of photons or sonic shear waves."...

Prayer flags

My feed over on Instagram delivered a wonderful profile with a continuing saga of the artist's adventures ... Hannah posted about a taking much needed camping trip, which turned into a sodden disaster - and wrote that they hung their 'cloutie flags' upon setting up camp in Cornwall. Clooties by a sacred well I guessed she meant small cloth prayer flags or banners, and found this when I looked it up: The Scots word ‘clootie’ means ‘cloth’ and this term can also be found in use in the famous Scottish dessert, the ‘clootie dumpling’. The ‘cloots’ of the clootie well are scraps of cloth hung from trees surrounding a sacred well or spring. These sources of clean water have been places of healing for millennia. Traditionally, the well would be visited at special times of the year, such as Beltane, the May Day festival of Spring, or when someone needed a cure for an illness. The well would draw people from across the local area, a social pilgrimage, each taking their...

Color of Healing

We had a great RT circle call today, where we did a fusion of the Color of Healing process I learned in a massage workshop 39 years ago, the practice from a recent PRISMA practioner session with Dr Mary Mccrystal, and added neurolines at the end! Several participants had recent surgeries, some had chronic pain or other Health issues, and one had a massage earlier in the day, which often leaves her sore! We Began with a body centered meditation and breath, noticing our bodies and areas of discomfort. Focus of the opening reading was Joy, and our RT inquiry was to share name and land acknowledgment, then something that brought joy/ they were grateful for. Then I introduced the practice: Color of Healing 🌟 with eyes closed, choose the first color ⭐ We drew the simple 'gingerbread style body outline first, then areas in pain/ needing attention 🌟 with that first or another intuitive color, drew a reverb/ energy field around the body, and I mentioned the African Healer Eric Vor...
