Education Specialist, health coach, and Author.
I work with aspects of the teachings I have learned: from Andean shamanic and cosmology, to health, nutrition and education. In the end, it is very simple, and elegant. That is definitely an aspect I learned from the Andean teachings. Everything is energy. Energy must flow. Like water, when it does not flow, it stagnates and is not healthy. These techniques help your life to flow.
I have been initiated into many of the ancient lineages and learned ceremonies, rites of passage and healing techniques. Mostly, I learned a lot about a cosmology that is vastly different than Western belief systems. This is a HUGE distinction and very powerful in creating change and bringing healing. I have worked as a healer and done workshops and taught some of these aspects – passing the teachings on.

Did You Know That Heavy Metals can be Making Alzheimer’s Worse? Okay, so most people’s first response is probably: What the hell are heavy metals? I remember when I first heard it, many years ago. I knew it sounded “bad,” but I had noooo real idea what it was, or what it meant. Does this…

We all know how vital vegetables are for our health…The food pyramid has even been amended to reflect the importance of eating plenty of veggies. So, the question becomes, for many of us– how to get enough good veggies into us, on a daily basis. Do you wrestle with that one as much as I…

I never understood why good yogurt is so expensive. Although after finding out what all is entailed with being licensed to process any dairy products, yogurt, cheese, cream etc. Yeah, I understand better. It is absolutely cost prohibitive for the small-dairy to set up for any commercial operation. The same rules and standards apply if…

Summer is a great time to add a lot of fresh foods to the diet. Especially locally grown fruits and vegetables. Or maybe you grow some of your own fruits and veggies? It’s amazing how easy it can be to grow, even a few things, in small spaces. Strawberries or blackberries in pots on the…

I was just having an ongoing discussion about compassion and how we process what we experience.. someone made a very good distinction and reminder, about the importance in differentiating between the person, and the action.. that is ALWAYS a huge factor.. because we may be the sum of our actions.. but we are not every…

I remember someone noting that there are only 2 things. fear and love. I’m not sure I entirely agree with the premise.. but I suppose in terms of polarity/ binary/motivation.. in our current paradigm ( physical plane).. there is toward and away.. love=toward.. fear=away. whether we call it yin/yang, or positive/negative/ away/toward… Love would equal…

I have been surprised, but encouraged at the responses from other healers and their identical struggle and juggling act around their friendships outside of fellow healers. Personally, I LIKE and almost prefer my non-healer friends. I have other interests in my life, and I don’t want to live in my healers-hat all the time… yes…

I just read a post- what is the one thing, moment.. that you will never forget. Do you remember any life-altering points you can look back to, either momentous, or maybe seemingly tiny ( at the time)? I probably have a few, but the one that came to mind is the time when I was…

I was following a discussion thread the other day. I forget now what the original topic was about- that happens when discussion threads take on a life and energy of their own. But there was one point, one response in this exchange that caught my attention, and I felt drawn to elaborate on it. Someone…

I recently came across a question on one of my threads about whether putting their dog down was the right decision. I couldn’t answer the question, as I really didn’t have enough information. But the question raised a lot of important issues, worth discussion What was the problem with the dog? What was the disease?…

Anyone who watches television, knows how much the media – esp in this country– pushes such a deep fear factor into everything.. fear of “other” fear of failure.. fear of ridicule.. masked and couched in so many subtle ways.. but it still, most definitely pushes fear as a primary marketing and social message. totally sucks…..

Have you got an abundance of zucchini and summer squash? Running out of ideas? Here’s a great healthy recipe. It was intended as a cold soup, but I have made it hot, many times. Fantastic either way. And with all the summer bounty of zucchini, a great time for this tasty nugget! Good light summer…
