Teachers
How I got here:
I offer thanks and gratitude first and foremost to my family, for their love and support throughout the years. I also offer thanks and gratitude to the many teachers, healers, and travel leaders that have helped me to heal and remember who I am.
My teachers have taught me: life skills, ancient knowledge, healing arts, women’s blood mysteries, and the healing properties of ritual.
My healers have offered me a wide variety of modalities such as music, chiropractic care, massage, shamanic breath work, Soul Retrieval, and Reiki.
My travels have been a combination of pilgrimage and retreat. The leaders and sisters who accompanied me on these travels have created great memories that have healed me in numerous ways.
