ABOUT

When we talk about "Spirit" or "energy," sometimes the essence of what is gets lost in the constant human need to conceptualize the inconceivable. I have no interest in trying to claim or label the vital life force that exists within all things. It is not mine. It is true essence that I have the privilege of reverently opening to; and it is my duty, while on this Earth, to pass what I have learned--and continue to devote to--on to others. This is why I am here.

I serve the Earth, the sacred, and the intrinsic wisdom and medicine found there.

The way we each come to understanding varies. I do my best to translate. The modalities and traditional systems of medicine can be mechanisms to that; yet, I do not take any for granted, nor employ them for personal gain. I have spent decades of my life humbly studying, honoring traditions that have come long before me--traditions that I do not come from--but, deep within my heart, I know as irrefutably as "home."

I am as much a student and a vehicle as I am a guardian of the sacred, the wise--protectress of the natural and Spirit realms we exist within.

Earth-centered healing places Earth at the beginning, middle, and end of consideration, while we are in form. The Earth is a physical representation of our connectedness to what is spiritual. So are our bodies.

Earth is the embodiment of Spirit. Earth is Mother. Earth is alive--keeper of life and all beings. An elder.

A teacher. A wise one. The Earth is our greatest physical teacher because She connects us with the sacred beyond what is tangible. While we are embodied, we need to turn toward the Earth to digest what is beyond worldly understanding. To listen, to make amends, return to power, vitality--to heal.

And we must do the same for the Earth, first!

We can not heal our physical systems, without Spirit. We cannot connect to the ultimate flow of energy without it. When we heal our bodies we can better align with Spirit--from the cosmos, down to the minute life and roots beneath our feet. When we harmonize with Spirit, we heal our bodies. We become the conduit to the divine, sacred, medicinal energy inside of all things.

I listen to the land. I speak, sing to the trees. I learn from the wind. I weep for, break, and tear open with the ground. I cherish, love, and protect the land. I am the land. The land is me.

Then, I go beyond Earth. Beyond a body, time, or space. To the essence of what is.

I listen.

I bow.

And then, I return.

To teach, to offer back the wisdom and medicine granted. With clarity of Spirit, vitality of body, and frequency of the divine. I harmonize, I heal.

When we commit to honoring the cycle, the tidal waves, ebbs and flows--we can more freely and authentically govern our healing, balancing ourselves amidst cosmic tides, while on Earth.

HOW DID YOU BEGIN THIS PATH?

I have spent over a decade studying subtle energies as applied to health. Prior to my work as an holistic medicine energetic practitioner, I have worked as a writer and a teacher. As a lifetime academic, my interests center around learning about, and respecting, energies and forces beyond us as a way to guide us within the world, and ultimately toward a higher-self. I firmly believe that there is a balance between the universe and existence, and that in honoring that balance, to our own individuation, we can have more clarity, peace, and health.

I began this path more reluctantly than most, but with honest reflection and consideration, I have learned to truly tap into the innate power within, and around each of us. I am, as a result, committed to being an ongoing student; studying both the physical and the energetic, while utilizing a holistic integrative approach to health, and in the process, hopefully teach those whom I have the privilege of helping how to benefit from such energies to serve a larger balance within themselves, too.
