The main techniques I use in my healing practice come from the rich traditions of the mountain, coastal, and jungle shamans of Peru.

Illumination
This is the general term referring to the process by which we release heavy energy associated with a specific emotional issue or trauma, and replace it with pure high-vibration energy. This is the foundation of my healing work and the framework within which the other techniques are used. (See Your Healing Session for more details.)

Soul Retrieval
This powerful technique is common to many shamanic traditions. The shaman journeys into the underworld—the realm of the unconscious. His aim is to retrieve a lost Soul Piece, along with a Power Animal and a Gift. The soul piece is a part of you that has been rendered inaccessible as a result of trauma. When a soul piece is retrieved and nurtured, it brings about greater wholeness and healing. It carries with it the possibility for cultivating new strengths and talents, which now become available to you.

Energy Extractions
Great relief and healing can occur when negative or heavy energy is removed. This energy can be crystallized in a particular area of the body or can be fluid and move around. Crystallized energies are usually connected to traumatic events and emotions. These usually come from external sources. Fluid energies are often spiritual entities such as departed loved ones that are connected to us in a harmful or inhibiting way. These entities are gently extracted using a crystal.

Cord Cutting
Certain Energetic Cords that connect you to others may be harmful. The resulting energy depletion may be felt as emotional or physical distress. When these cords are severed, you gain access to your full life force— often for the first time in your life. In addition, the work will ensure that the tendency to form such unhealthy connections is “cauterized”. This becomes a source of new-found power and transformation.
