Once in a while someone will ask me if energy healing is a substitute or work around to help avoid feeling emotions. Yeah, I know, interesting question. When the question arises, it’s often about wanting to avoid feeling anger. Many folks have an aversion to anger because it’s a powerful emotion, and can become a … Read more
Do you have any idea what it’s like to sit across from a patient (or client) in a therapeutic/healing session and discover that what the patient is describing to you is what’s happening in your own life experience? It happens all the time! And it can be pretty challenging to say the least. The reason … Read more
Last week I heard from a client who was carrying around all kinds of negative emotional energy. She had these thoughts and emotions wired up as really big, powerful and pervasive. It was all she could see, feel, hear and sense about herself. She told me that she felt frightened, scared and overwhelmed. Bless her … Read more
Remember Dana Carvey as Church Lady and that line from Saturday Night Live? It went viral before we knew what it meant to go viral. Want to hear it again? Let’s reframe that line just a bit into, Well, Aren’t You Special. Why? Because it works for the post, that’s why. Moving on… A friend … Read more
I was going to write this blog post last week, but I didn’t get around to it. On the other hand, writing the post this week allows me to get it just right! And as you can imagine, CK does EVERYTHING perfectly. Or maybe not so much. In fact, I had a hilarious (and accurate) … Read more
A recent lesson in attention and energy flow seems worth describing – perhaps a contribution to the discourse on attraction, attention, how energy works. If you’d like the backstory on this post, please see the Chakra Khan post, Messages, Passages, Assimilation. It describes the recent experience I had cleaning out my parent’s house in anticipation … Read more
In the last few months, several of my Energy Healing Institute clients have been through radical reorganizations in their lives. Not teensy transits, or minor kerfuffles that created a need to fluff their aura and regroup. No sirree. We’re talking big changes, lollapaloozers, the big enchildadas – the ones that take cohones to even contemplate! And … Read more
Last week I took myself up north on the Coast of Maine for my annual pilgrimage and retreat. The area is spectacularly beautiful – raw, primal – wildlife abounds. The sparse population of year-round residents are salty and real and connected to the Earth in ways that you don’t see in suburbs, or even my … Read more
You can’t see an energy healer in the attempt to avoid meeting your issues and owning your stuff. We’re not therapy substitutes. The title of this post is the invitation to people to go in and do the work so you can find out. Literally and figuratively. Any energy healer worth his or her salt … Read more
No, I’m not scolding you. And I’m not calling you naughty. I am calling out to your nadis, because yes, even you have them. When teaching participants about hands-on healing during EHI’s Facilitating Healing curriculum, we cover a skill called Untangling Nadis. The nadis are akin to the meridians – the channels that funnel energy … Read more
Well, by now you all realize that I devoted two entire posts to guilt (which you can find here and here). I have no problems with that, and I’m not justifying a thing. All I can say is that shame deserves equal time. So what’s the thing with shame? Why are shame-fests so common? What’s … Read more
In 1991, I embarked on the study of consciousness, psychic development and shamanism at the same time. I was quickly immersed in the work of Seth & Jane Roberts. I was learning skills and practices to develop my apparent but untrained psychic ability, studying with John Friedlander in Ann Arbor, Michigan. And I was participating … Read more
Anyone who has spent any time with me in my practice or my energy healing trainings knows that I am rabidly, insanely, over-the-top bonkers about eliminating guilt from the energy body and field. It’s right up there with shame in my estimation, but there’s no way I’m wasting the opportunity to write a separate blog … Read more
Recently I got an inquiry from a participant in several of the energy healing training programs EHI offers. She wanted some suggestions for a colleague struggling to survive the dismantling of a marriage while being financially obligated to live under the same roof with her future ex-spouse. The relationship between the two is acrimonious, messy, … Read more
Meet. Greet. Complete… Repeat. A winning formula for personal evolution. Meet the issue, person, emotion, physical pain, mental musing, spiritual crisis head on. Straight up. Greet the underlying story, the root cause analysis, the underbrush and move in to the work. Yes, exactly. Just do it. And we’re not talking sneak-ers, here people. No, you … Read more
