Quantum Health Practioner
A few words about Me...
I am currently a Doctoral Candidate in Quantum/Natural Medicine and a Board Certified Quantum Health Practitioner working with some of the best teachers in the field including Dr.’s Amit Goswami (Theoretical Quantum Physicist), Joe Dispenza (Neuroscientist, Chiropractor/universally beloved author & miracle-worker) Paul Drouin (Medical Doctor, President of IQUIM) & Bruce Lipton (Developmental Biologist).
Aside from any credentials, I want to share the heart wallop/cosmic sledge hammer that brought me to the here & now...
A Beautiful Call...
Well over a decade ago I left the mind-centered world of academia. I did love teaching higher ed. writing, but was desperately heeding a call toward the more open and power-rich terrain of the heart, body & spirit. Albeit a beautiful call, it was brutal. Brenee & Glennon call it, I believe, “brutiful.” After yoga pulled me out of one of the darkest, most frightening and ill-balanced places in my life, I fell in love with it hard and practiced non-stop; a few years later I followed one of those divine signs to formally study.
For the past decade I have taught yoga & meditation in Austin, Texas. Within that timeframe I started to professionalize my own practice, taught and mentored teachers-in-training, worked in tandem with a local chiropractor as a privately trained Yoga Therapist and led spiritual retreats worldwide. Studying Craniosacral Therapy and becoming a Certified CDLH* Reiki Master steered me away from working with large groups as much and toward individual care.
Gifts of Time Well Spent...
Incredibly grateful for the western medical community's intelligence and efforts, I now see this medicine for what it is: "emergency medicine.” Last minute stuff. And boy do we need it! But it MUST be used for and called what it is; It is not a method of healing. Medical doctors are not trained in medical school to heal. They are trained in "lifestyle extension" (conditioned lifestyles riddled with emotional, psychological and behavioral patterns that are harmful to deadly). Their scope of practice is based dominantly on two things: pharmaceuticals and surgery. These two things are becoming more and more intolerable (not to mention unaffordable) for our increasing sensitivities as an expanding/evolving species.
I lost my father years ago, so this was the second time I saw and felt the painful, obvious limitations of western medicine viewed and used as primary medicine. After I dissolved into near-bottomless grief, I emerged softer, stronger, sure and focused (the gifts of time well-spent with our informative shadows—contrast always serves). Feeling swathed in the most grounded light I’ve yet experienced, I’m stoked to ride on the leading edge of new/ancient medicine and to be part of the complete revamp and democratization of our health and medical systems. So much of humanity's freedom lies here! It's time we all got to know who and what we are, for what purposes we are here, how to care for the multi-dimensional beings we are, and what it means to live a conscious, fully-alive life.
At this same time, my mom, my most favorite human, became ill with ovarian cancer. Walking through that harrowing journey with her gave me the final nudge toward medicine. I watched for years as my mother lived unhappy (& therefore unhealthy) emotional & mental patterns. As a highly sensitive being I could feel them daily knitting themselves (as they do) tapestry-like into physical form. I watched a slowly worsening illness drag my mom through a final four years of relentless pain & unceasing terror. The cancer finally took her life in October of 2020.
