Energy Healing is

A JOURNEY

More than 15 years ago, I became interested in bringing calm and peace into my life. While I didn’t quite know how to create those feelings, I did know I needed to try something different. In my own authentic way, I wanted to feel more confident mentally and emotionally, smile and enjoy loving and healthy relationships, and carry out work that helps people and satisfies my creative spark.

 

Over the years, I have experimented with several different approaches. Eventually, I gravitated to practices or therapies that work best for me, including meditation, walking, yoga, counseling, meditative drumming, chanting, shamanics, photography – AND YES – energy healing. I’ve found that each of these practices or therapies work best together, according to my needs. I use energy healing in conjunction to support, build and strengthen these practices or therapies that are part of my wellness goals - it's an integrative approach. I can confidently say that each of these continue to help me grow on my journey. 

​

My energy healing practice includes training and certification as a Reiki Master and McKay Method® Graduate. I have also earned my Master's degree in Mind-Body Medicine from Saybrook University. In addition, I am training to become a certified mindful meditation teacher. I am continually reading, learning and listening to professionals and other practitioners in the field of spirituality, energy healing, meditation, somatics, shamanics and relationships.

 

Not energy healing, but related - my experience also includes about 25+ years working in the media and communications, writing, editing, taking photos, performing graphics design, creating websites and managing social media. I've worked at a TV station, newspaper, magazine and a couple of non-profits that provide advocacy and care for underserved populations. All of these different jobs taught me the important skills of connecting and learning about the different people I meet every day.

WHAT IS THE MCKAY METHOD?

​

The McKay Method® is a compilation of teachings taught by Energy Healer Bear McKay. Bear teaches specific energy healing treatments that attend to physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. The four-year course focused on Energy Signature, which is a starting point for a practitioner to understand and treat a client according to their own personal traits. In addition, students experience in-depth practices including mindfulness, meditation, shamanics, movement, soul work and other spiritual applications.

WHAT IS REIKI?

​

Reiki is an energy healing technique that helps reduce stress and promotes relaxation. Discovered in 1922 by Mikao Usui, the Japanese technique is administered using a light hands-on approach. Reiki is defined as “spiritually guided life energy.” While it’s directed by a practitioner who was attuned to the special energy by a Reiki Master, the wisdom of the energy delivers itself to the place that needs healing most. This means that when a practitioner connects to a client’s energy field, the Reiki energy will use its own intelligence to find the areas that need healing.
