Why do I do what I do?

I know firsthand how important and life changing it can be!

I am always learning and growing & I love to share with women who can benefit from my knowledge & skills.
It was a long, tough road with many bumps along the way, but I have arrived!!!!!
By the middle of 2002, I found myself in a job I detested. My work situation was toxic, my boss was toxic, but the money was excellent, the hours were great, but I was unhappy. I knew there was a part of my life that always seemed to be just out reach. It was as if I was ignoring an essential part of my soul. I was always tired, overwhelmed and stuck on that same road, over and over again. I was disconnected from my heart.
I always had insomnia and some mild anxiety, but by the end of 2004, everything had escalated and I started getting down on life – I had just woke up from my second wrist surgery and thought what the hell is going on? I just kept getting these ganglions in the joint of my right wrist and they were so painful. So was the recovery process, time after time. Within 3 months of my last surgery, I had somehow conjured up another very large ganglion, right in the same spot and thought oh, god I don’t want to go through this again.
It was then that I met a wonderful gal who did “Reiki” healing. At that time, I had no idea what she was talking about and actually thought she was just a little bit strange with her ideas and beliefs. One morning, I woke with a nasty headache and she insisted on a Reiki session, so I finally surrendered and allowed her to “do her thing”. When she was finished, I didn’t really know what she had done to me, but I did know that my headache was completely gone and I wanted to know more about how she did that.
Looking back at that time now, I know that it was one of the best things that ever happened to me because it invited me to take a closer look at what was going on in my life and the way I was living it.
I realized that it was my own anxiety, unhappiness at work, lack of self-care and disconnection from myself that was the cause of my ganglions, anxiety, sleep issues and depression. I knew it was time to connect with my heart’s desire to reshape my life and live it the way I really wanted to. And that’s what I did. I spent a lot of time taking my next Reiki levels, studying, learning about myself and what I really wanted out of my life. I also learned a lot about slowing down and self-care – two things that I now recognize as absolutely essential to being a successful healer. Through reiki, meditation, and finally, the big one ~ letting go of the notion that I had to stay at the job I was and not follow my passion, which was now energy healing. I put my notice in at work and within one week, my ganglion was completely gone! Wow!
Immediately, I started my business, Essential Energy Healing, but clients were just not coming as fast as I wanted them to, so I ended up taking another part time job to help with support of my business. Within two years of starting that job, I got chronic bronchitis and three serious bouts of pneumonia, then my father passed away from a horrible brain and lung cancer, which spread so fast it knocked our family right off our feet. Within 2 months of my dad passing away, I was sick again. I decided right then and there to do what I was called to do, which was to heal myself and helping others do the same so they wouldn’t have to go through the same stuff as I did.
I left my job to work my own business full time. I had plenty of time for self-care, started a daily yoga and energy medicine routine along with meditation and Reiki to keep my energy clear. By the end of January 2011, I found myself feeling fulfilled and connected so much of the time! Although there are still many difficult days thinking about my dad and my elderly and not so healthy In-laws, I have come a long way and my major health problems and anxiety have not returned!
That first big step to work my business full-time was absolutely terrifying! Uncovering my passion and my purpose gave me the courage to take the risk and change my life! I am working with a beautiful life/business coach and healer who is helping with my with my business plan & has assisted me in pushing through my old beliefs ~ what an amazing experience to have with her!
I now do Reiki, Energy Medicine and Massage to help people with their chronic pains, exhaustion, anxiety and work with many people prior to and after their radiation or chemotherapy treatments for cancer. I love to share my knowledge through teaching and workshops & share my experiences with others to assist them in accomplishing their goals while feeling balance and joy in their own lives.
My experience and interests…
For the last 6 years I have done huge amounts of work on clearing my energies through meditation, regularly going our local Reiki circle, soul dance, drumming & many other women’s spiritual rituals. I am a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, accredited through the Canadian Reiki Association and have presented over 30 classes, completed my Indian Head & Massage courses, Ear Candling Course and am currently working on my Energy Medicine & Spiritual Life Coaching Certification. I am a Member of the Natural Health Practitioners of Canada, Local Independent Achievers, Lacombe Chamber of Commerce and hold many other Holistic memberships in Alberta & Canada.
I live in Alberta with my husband Darcy and our son, Levi who is in his 2nd year of College already. I am trying to get ready to let our son spread his wings and fly to the city in September without much ado, but I think it’s going to be a very tear filled day. Not sure I’m going to be prepared to be empty nester.
I am so very grateful to my family, friends, reiki sisters and mentors who have helped mold me into all that I have become. Most importantly, I am grateful to my amazing clients!
