My Training.

 

As I age and sage ,my teachers have been many.

 

My first teacher was a tree.

When I was in my teenage years,I would sit under a tree right up against the trunk.I would have a cup of tea and read or write in my journal.In my performing arts school my training there prepared my body for spirit to express itself.

I took yoga at 14 yrs old.My dreaming world was intense ,I was always accepted into community but maintained a private space for myself. In my 20s I discovered the Institute for Shamanic studies in Toronto and  Sunray meditation with Venerable Dyhanni in Vermont USA who is a Cherokee grandmother. Ohki Simmine Forrest  a Shaman in Chiapas Mexico I met in a shamanic journey circle and studied yoga at the  Vidya Institute in Toronto.My Guru Krishnan Mantri  lived in Toronto Canada. Online I studied  Lisa Renees message with Energetic Synthesis, this has helped to put my gifts into context.Dionne Jones was my Reiki Master who now resides in Victoria.

Life and Spirit do evolve, grow and change.

 

Sweatlodge, and the medicine wheel I learnt along raising two children and became a Reiki Master from Dionne Jones. I became a Certified Aromatherapist from Bridget Lechat from South Africa back in the 90's.

I struggled with post partum after my second born and found it difficult to balance motherhood and being a healer so my teachers, Nettle and red raspberry leaf tea taught me after care. A new born  baby and the process of pregnancy ,birth and post partum was also my teacher.

 

My style.

My style ,you could say is that I bring Sofia ( mothering) energy into energies that are difficult for others.I can be very nurturing and hold others hearts, bodies ,minds and projections to dissolve illusions into "solutions."

 

What is constant?

Animal totems have always been there for me and the initiations that happen there offer strength into difficult situations.I do not only hold an individuals healing ,I hold ideas, bodies ,and situations, and am constantly writing programs as they are channeled in me through spirit.

I am intimate and hold space for closeness to occur ,trust to permeate the space and respect and humility to be present by the client and by myself. The seven grandfather teachings ,which hold the teachings of respect and humility anchor the medicine to hold  gravitas, itas and veritas. Translation ?..Something important, fair and true.

The old woman energy of the land in Ireland has given me a presence to work as a mother and a grandmother. I have followed my mothers line back and now have the beauty and support of seven generations back.

 

Celtic church - Christ ,or Krystic practices offer ascension meditations and are a staple in my life.

I move into the depth of Gnosis with Krystic practices.

 

I believe in numbers ,stages and ages in life ,timing and working with time and finding a way to constantly learn and grow like a tree in its various stages and seasons.

Celtic trees ( the ogham) pronounced Om has open doors to the world of the druids.

Otherworldly I navigate this world with many world views.

I am excited by life and all it has to offer.
