In this article, I briefly explain why I distinguish myself as being vegan ~ despite the term vegan having a negative stigma ~ how it has helped me be a better 'healer' and who especially benefits from energy healing.

What makes me unique as a
Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner? 


I hope you'll take a minute to read this. It's a challenge to keep it concise, and it's personal.

I have been practicing a variety of holistic healing therapies since the late 1990s ~ including acupuncture, massage, reflexology, hypnotherapy, Holistic C.O.R.E. Counseling, Reiki for both humans and animals, and other more esoteric forms of intuitive readings.  

For much of my life, I had many health challenges, and often felt emotionally insecure. This didn't make sense to me, as I was a smart kid, who skipped first grade, and was pretty physically active and health conscious. (My perception that I should be more 'successful' was a large part of my angst.) I may have appeared healthy on the outside. Internally, I felt much different, something I spent many years trying to rectify. 

It wasn't until I read Elaine Aron's book, The Highly Sensitive Person, along with The Highly Sensitive Person's Survival Guide, by Ted Zeff, and The Introvert Advantage, by Marti Olsen that I realized that I was energetically and mentally wired a bit differently. 

I spent years doing a lot of inner work to face my shadows, feel more comfortable in my own skin, and better cope in a highly overstimulating society.

I learned to channel what seemed like a curse of being hypersensitive, or highly empathic into my gifts as a highly intuitive energy healing practitioner. I feel energy.  (And so do you, whether you are aware, or not!)

I've also tried a plethora of diet styles as I sought to heal myself as naturally as possible.  

I believe what makes me unique as a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner is partly because I  have training in several forms of health, and holistic healing, including energy healing. Plus, I understand and have compassion towards those experiencing a range of physical and emotional health challenges. I've been there, and I teach the tools that finally helped me overcome many obstacles and emotional triggers, and transform my life.

I especially tend to attract other people who are highly sensitive types, even though they may not be aware of it until I bring it up.

The other thing that distinguishes me as a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner is my diet.

Having gone from being on a whole-foods, plant-based diet, to a nearly plant-free diet - and thankfully, back home to my heart as a vegan - I have direct experience with how these diets affect my energy, my moods, my connection to nature, and my overall state of mental and physical health. 

I actually stopped seeing clients for energy healing for a couple of years as I ultimately went into a dark place that took time for me to recover from. I gave so much of myself away ~ including un-publishing all my plant-based / macrobiotic books ~ while eating a very high-protein, low-carb, animal-based diet. It was hands down one of my biggest life regrets, while also being a valuable lesson and opportunity for incredible growth.

Although most of the world would disagree, or consider me crazy, or...'too sensitive'... something I've heard throughout my life, you, the client, benefit from my being a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner.

I know there are many gifted energy healing practitioners that are not vegan. That said, as someone who is both vegan and an energy healer, I personally prefer to find a practitioner that is also vegan, yet there are none in my area. There seem to be very few at all.

Why do I prefer a vegan energy healing practitioner?

Diets high in animal foods and saturated fats creates more viscous, sludgy blood. When we eat animals, we also ingest their pain and suffering.

At one point, a year or two after my most recent switch back to a plant-based / vegan diet, I had an overwhelming sense of emotion come over me.  I suddenly felt as though I was walking past the meat display, smelling rank, old meat that had sat there too long.  I could also 'hear' the wails and struggles of cows in my mind, as they smelled the blood of the cows ahead of them in the slaughter line. The flood gates opened, and I just cried and cried. I believe I was discharging ~ emotionally and physically ~ from my remorse for having contributed, however indirectly to their pain and suffering.

Upon reflection after that event, I was grateful that I had retreated from being an energy healer while eating a nearly plant-free / carnivore / hypercarnivore diet. I never want to transmit that type of suffering ~ however unwittingly or inadvertently ~ to another.

Am I crazy? Maybe. But I  certainly have no desire to be normal anymore.

Perhaps we've collectively been 'trained' to desensitize. Empathy is a natural human quality. What if the many ills of society are rooted in this worldwide commodification and abuse of animals? 

I personally still feel startled, yet immensely grateful for the intuitive insights I receive while doing energy healing. I consider it a privilege to be able to connect so intimately with others, and be part of their healing and growth process.

Having been on so many diets, and having dealt with so many different challenges, I have compassion for all, and know that we each have our own path to follow. I am not here to tell anyone what to eat or do. I am here to help you connect the dots between your symptoms, and what you are experiencing.

As a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner, I strive to be the best person I can be, and live by The Golden Rule, to not do to other sentient beings what I would not want done to me. I desire to be as clear a channel of love and healing energy as I can be.

My role is to help clear disturbances that are preventing you from experiencing harmonious flow where you can heal naturally, and feel how you are meant to feel.

What else you may want to know about my
Vegan Energy Healing Services

As a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner, I synthesize my knowledge of the meridian system and reflexology with my innate gifts of intuition, and ability to tune in, and feel or sense energetic disturbances, and old or stuck grief and other emotions.

My energy 'healing' is a Five-Element Based Intuitive Energy Clearing that focuses on helping you become aware of, and release energetic disturbances, and (re)harmonize or re-attune you to your more naturally harmonious and healed state. The insights or information I receive and relay to you is organized according to the qualities associated with each of the 5-elements, as outlined in this Chinese 5-Elements chart.

Energy healing sessions are safe and relaxing.

Receiving energy healing (or what I often refer to as energy clearing and re-harmonizing) allows you to feel more like you are meant to feel ~ more light and expanded, calm yet energized, and more centered and at peace.  

Energy healing is especially beneficial for other highly sensitive types, those dealing with a lot of stress, grief, or other emotional issues, and anyone who feels out of balance, emotionally weighed down, or out of sorts.

My Energy Clearing and Re-Harmonizing sessions ~ including Reiki for our animal companions ~ are available in person, or at a distance.

As a Vegan Energy Healing Practitioner, I still find it difficult to explain what our Western materially oriented minds are only beginning to better comprehend of energy medicine. It is easier to explain what is happening during or after an energy healing session.

For those interested, you can learn more by reading my articles, below:

My particular style of Energy Healing hones in on clearing any unseen disturbances to your energy field, then restoring your more natural, peaceful, pristine state of being.  Clients often express feeling much lighter, sleeping better, and feeling more at peace.

Because most of us are in continual states of stress, or carry around pent up emotions, grief, and other baggage, we really have no idea how good, and more light  we can and should feel!  

In a more harmonious, peaceful state, we are more able to receive divine inspiration, and feel at one with all life.  



What led you to offering Vegan Energy Healing Services?

I believe my training in Chinese medicine, macrobiotics, and ongoing meditation practices has helped me gain insights into how the body compensates for whatever we are not appropriately processing, mentally and physically.  

Eastern systems of healing are more holistically integrated, with the psychology and physiology being seen as one interconnected system, each affecting the other.
