Holistic Wellness
Holistic Wellness Modalities
What lead me to open my holistic wellness practice was the calling I had to serve others holistically; body, mind, and soul. As a bedside nurse I witnessed how my patients needed more than medication and temporary symptom relief. Healing was calling in deeper ways. Everything they shared with me made me realize that their suffering often came from past wounds, emotional pains, repetitive unhealthy mental patterns, a sense of loneliness, and ultimately, a separation from their spiritual self.
Whether you wish to simply incorporate more presence and relaxation into your day or are in search of holistic support in your wellness journey, I offer my wellness therapies in Sonoma CA. I absolutely love what I do and enjoy creating a healing space that nurtures you.
Reiki is a holistic therapy in the field of complimentary medicine. It allows a practitioner to channel universal energy as guidance for the healing process. We have 7 main chakras or energy centers throughout our bodies that directly connects with a specific organ/gland and to our mental and emotional state. Each chakra is meant to unfold naturally during different phases of our life. However, due to our perception of experiences from our past this is not always the case. The condition of each chakra then reflects our current level of consciousness.
We can have open, closed, or blocked chakras. Each can be in a state of deficiency or excess energy. When not balanced, this can cause a disturbance in our entire well-being. Unexpressed emotions, traumas from our past, and resentments are examples that can block the energy flow within the chakra system. When energy is stagnant we feel it in every aspect of our lives. When energy is flowing freely, we are free to think, feel, do, and be!
During a Reiki session, the individual is completely dressed and simply lies down on a massage table or bed. The practitioner gently places hands on or just above the body. This offers an opportunity for body, mind, and emotions to return to a harmonious balance. Some people experience a feeling of warmth or coolness. Other times, a sense of heaviness or tingling sensation. Some fall asleep and this is completely normal as well. People often feel a great amount of relaxation and peace. Regardless of your personal experience, energy is being moved and can bring along profound realizations and shifts. It was an honor to receive my Reiki Master Usui Method attunement through my teacher, Judy Bowles who has been a Reiki Master for over 39 years.
Bioenergetic Therapy Kun-Li: The Art of Living Consciously is a holistic approach for exploring the true nature of the self by learning to live in awareness of body, mind, and spirit interconnection. More than a form of therapy, Kun-Li Bioenergetics is a way of life. This practice was born from the ancestral wisdom that was passed down from the ancient Himalayan Rishis. Through the understanding of nature itself we are able to understand our own true nature. Through specific meditations, body awareness exercises, breath work and other individualized exercises, the individual re-learns to tap into their true nature. This allows the ability to naturally release built-up stress and tension that contributes to mental and emotional distress.
Here we work with the subtler energy system and dive into the root of the dis-ease or unbalance. By identifying energy blockages we can more consciously dedicate time in our day to day to come back and connect to what truly needs to be tended to. We learn to be in full awareness and this way learn to witness and alchemize the thoughts and emotions that come up. By learning to balance the energy around us and within us we naturally increase the flow of energy/power within and begin to experience our very own transformation. My training comes from the Kun-Li Lineage which is a mystical ancient lineage that derives from universal energy teachings. It is an honor of mine to have had direct guidance from my teacher, Dr. Yatiri Xiwli Germain.
