REIKI HEALING
Reiki helps restore balance and harmony, promoting relaxation, comfort, and overall well-being. As a Reiki Master I utilize this gentle, non-invasive technique to support the healing process.
​
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.
​
The practice of Reiki is based on the belief that a therapist can channel energy into the client by means of touch, to activate the natural healing processes of the patient's body and restore physical and emotional well-being.
​
Benefits of Reiki:
-
Promotes Harmony & Balance: Reiki helps to promote harmony and balance. It is an effective, non-invasive energy healing modality that enhances the body's natural healing ability while energizing and promoting overall wellness.
-
Creates deep relaxation and helps the body release stress and tension: Reiki has an excellent ability to reduce stress and induce relaxation. It allows everyone to tap into an unlimited supply of 'life force energy' to improve health and enhance the quality of life.
​
-
Dissolves energy blocks and promotes natural balance between mind, body, and spirit: Regular Reiki treatments can bring about a calmer and more peaceful state of being, in which a person is better able to cope with everyday stress.
-
Assists the body in cleansing itself from toxins and supports the immune system: We spend so much time in stress-reactive fight/flight mode that it becomes our 'norm' and our bodies literally forget how to return to balance. Reiki reminds our bodies how to shift into parasympathetic or “rest and digest” healing mode.
-
Clears the mind and improves focus: Reiki can help you stay centered and clear away unwanted energy. This can help you feel more grounded and connected, improving your focus and clarity.
HEALING JOURNEYS
For those seeking alternative paths of healing and self-discovery, I offer optional facilitated journeys that integrate various modalities, such as meditation, breath work, and creative expression. These journeys provide opportunities for deep introspection, spiritual growth, and personal transformation.
​
Embarking on a guided journey with a facilitator offers a profound opportunity to explore the depths of your inner self. Through carefully crafted experiences, participants can access their inner wisdom and unlock pathways to healing that may have previously been obscured.
​
A journey facilitated by an experienced guide can catalyze transformative personal growth. By delving into the subconscious mind and addressing deep-seated emotions and patterns, individuals often emerge from the experience with a greater sense of clarity, purpose, and self-awareness.
​
Many people carry unresolved trauma and emotional wounds that impact their daily lives. A guided journey provides a safe container to confront and heal these wounds, fostering emotional resilience and restoring a sense of wholeness.
Nature has long been recognized as a powerful source of healing and spiritual connection. Through a journey, participants often experience a profound reconnection with the natural world and a deepening of their spiritual practices, leading to a greater sense of harmony and interconnectedness.
​
One of the key benefits of journeying with a facilitator is the ongoing support and guidance provided throughout the integration process. Facilitators offer valuable insights, tools, and resources to help participants integrate their experiences into their daily lives, ensuring that the insights gained during the journey are fully integrated and applied for long-term growth and healing.
Participating in a journey often involves joining a community of like-minded individuals on a shared quest for personal growth and healing. This sense of community and connection can provide invaluable support and validation, helping participants feel seen, heard, and understood on their journey.
​
The deep introspection and heightened states of consciousness experienced during a journey can cultivate a profound sense of presence and mindfulness. Participants often report increased clarity of mind, enhanced creativity, and a greater ability to navigate life's challenges with grace and equanimity.
​
Ultimately, a journey is a deeply empowering experience that allows individuals to take ownership of their healing journey and discover the limitless potential within themselves. By embracing the journey with an open heart and mind, participants can tap into their innate capacity for growth, resilience, and transformation.

Why a death doula?
EMOTIONAL SUPPORT
A death doula offers a compassionate presence, actively listening to the fears, concerns, and desires of the dying person and their loved ones. They provide a non-judgmental space for open discussions about death, helping individuals process their emotions and find comfort in expressing their thoughts and feelings.
COMFORT CARE
Death doulas focus on enhancing the physical comfort of the dying person. They may suggest relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, or alternative therapies to alleviate pain and anxiety. They collaborate with healthcare professionals to ensure that the person's physical and emotional needs are met.
EDUCATION + PLANNING
Death doulas assist individuals in understanding the dying process, discussing available options for medical care, and exploring end-of-life decisions such as advance care planning, living wills, and do-not-resuscitate orders. They help individuals clarify their goals, values, and wishes, ensuring their preferences are respected and honored.
RITUALS + CEREMONIES
Doulas recognize the importance of rituals and ceremonies in the dying process and support individuals and families in creating meaningful and personalized rituals. This may include assisting with memorial planning, facilitating conversations about legacy, or organizing farewell ceremonies that honor the person's life and provide closure for loved ones.
PRACTICAL GUIDANCE
Doulas offer practical support by assisting with logistical aspects, such as coordinating medical appointments, organizing caregiving schedules, and facilitating communication between the individual, their family, and healthcare providers. They can help with tasks like creating legacy projects, documenting life stories, and addressing practical matters such as wills and funeral planning.
