Energy Medicine Practices
Advanced energy medicine practices and classes are available for those who are called to deepen their personal growth and healing through a collaborative approach that may include in-person energy medicine sessions, online sessions, mentoring, and education.
My energy medicine training and experience includes a master's degree in clinical acupuncture (specializing in Eastern Medicine Psychology), multiple qigong styles, Four Winds Energy Medicine, Pranic Healing®, energetic plant medicine, and other practices that support whole-person integration, growth, and healing. Energy medicine practices are informed by decades of additional experience with other modalities, transpersonal psychology studies, bodywork methods, spirituality explorations, and other related practices.

Energy medicine helps support your body's innate ability for self-healing. This work can support your system in learning to access a relaxed (parasympathetic) state, providing an atmosphere for improving pain levels, mood, concentration, digestion, immune response, quality of sleep, and much more.
Four Winds Energy Medicine
These advanced energy medicine practices work with imprints and information in the Luminous Energy Field as taught by Dr. Alberto Villoldo, Marcela Lobos, and The Four Winds Light Body School. These techniques may include releasing imprints and harmful generational patterns, removing intrusive energies, soul retrieval, ritual guidance, energy medicine-based coaching & education, death rites, and related practices.
This eclectic energy medicine modality is based primarily on an Andean lineage of healing traditions. It also includes practices from other traditions. It is offered for personal healing and spiritual growth. It is holistic in nature and considers the interplay of the body, mind/emotions, soul, and spirit in our human experience.
The Four Winds Society's YouTube Channel has numerous free videos about these practices for supporting personal growth, holistic healing, and spiritual development.

Some of the primary Four Winds Energy Medicine practices, as described my one of my teachers, Karen Johnson, include:
- Illumination Process: We work together to identify and release imprints in your Luminous Energy Field that may be negatively impacting you. We also work to repair the blueprint to change the underlying affinities for repeating certain detrimental patterns. (This process is offered in conjunction with acupuncture sessions).
- Extraction Process: We remove intrusive energies that are not an authentic part of your soul's expression in a way that completely and compassionately transforms them, as well as the issues surrounding why they were with you in the first place.
- Soul Retrieval Process: We journey on your behalf to recover a part of your whole self that separated from you during a time of trauma and now resides safely in a state of grace, awaiting the opportunity to be lovingly reunited with you. This exquisitely beautiful process, and all its accompanying gifts and wisdom offerings, brings a profound sense of wholeness and well-being.
- Other processes that can be explored include death rites and support with transitioning between worlds for those who are preparing to pass as well as for those who have already passed (no matter how much time has gone by), energy medicine-based health coaching, despacho ceremonies, passing on the Munay-Ki Rites, and other more advanced practices.
Acupuncture for Spiritual Care & Personal Growth
Acupuncture helps support and harmonize the body's energy system. The acupuncture sessions I offer are intended to support you with other personal and spiritual development work you are doing.
I primarily use abdominal acupuncture blended with Four Winds Energy Medicine practices and Pranic Healing® techniques. Acupuncture sessions are combined with the Four Winds Energy Medicine Illumination process, offered to support the release of imprints in your Luminous Energy Field that may be negatively impacting you.
With these methods, the practitioner receives information for choosing points through palpation of the abdomen, acupuncture channels, pulses, and broader energy field. Essential oils may also be used on acupuncture points for their therapeutic effects. These sessions support your body's innate self-healing mechanisms while helping to clear energetic blockages.
If you've had acupuncture elsewhere, you'll notice that I stay in the room with you during your session (instead of placing needles then leaving the room for 20-40 minutes as is common in the acupuncture field). As you rest, I monitor changes in qi flow, tend to your comfort, and incorporate other energy medicine techniques simultaneously as we work together to support your energy system.

Pranic Healing®
Pranic Healing® is a hands-off energy healing practice developed in the Philippines by Grandmaster Choa Kok Sui. It follows a process of cleansing, energizing, and stabilizing the energy system to remove energy blockages and bring in fresh qi/prana while you rest. Pranic Healing® works similarly to acupuncture, but without the use of needles. It is excellent for working with stress, chronic pain, and trauma healing. It is unique in that it does not require talking about traumatic experiences. This modality is gentle yet powerful and relaxing yet energizing. It paves the way for greater access to your own wisdom, joy, and growth.

Energetic Plant Medicine
Plant medicine may be woven into energy medicine sessions via flower essences, handcrafted herbal tinctures, essential oils, and other methods. We incorporate energy medicine practices with drop-dose plant wisdom through pulse testing to support the the body's flow of life force energy. This work supports you in bringing attention to your own inner experiences and personal growth with the assistance of plant medicine.
Plants have been our guides and helpers as long as humans have walked on the planet. They possess the ability to remind us how to flow through life smoothly again when energy and emotions become stuck, stagnant, or depleted.
Plant medicine can be especially useful when a person is in a life transition, when doing growth work, or whenever we have the desire to simply feel more deeply nourished. The plants provide subtle, yet powerful support to help you along your path as you release the conditioned layers of "not you" in order to express more of who you are with clarity and confidence.
