Since 1979 I’ve been working with people to help
them heal their heart and soul and connect with their authentic
spiritual self. My early work was primarily in the area
of spiritual counseling in various capacities which incorporated
an understanding of psychology and spirituality.
This naturally evolved into my quest to understand and integrate
the physical body in this healing process as well. At a very early
age, I was studying and experimenting with many methods of cleansing,
proper diet, and exercise needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle
and sustain vitality.
At the age of 16, I began practicing meditation to clear the 'chatter'
in my mind. Since then I have learned and practiced many forms and
styles of meditation. As a result of all these experiences in my
early adult life, I realized that a holistic approach incorporating
emotional, physical, mental and spritual practices was very important
in my work with clients to achieve a higher level of fulfillment
in life.
I began my body work practice in 1985. I trained
in neuromuscular therapy immediately after graduating from the European
Institute of Massage. I specialized in working with clients who
were experiencing chronic and acute physical pain. For the next
eight years, my technique involved gentle rocking of the body, a
modified version of neuromuscular therapy, and deep diaphramatic
breathwork. I also incorporated Pranic Energy Healing and other
healing techniques such as Shiatsu and Reflexology. I kept
searching for a way to do deep work without the pain to myself and
my clients.
In 2003 I discovered Thai Yoga Massage and pursued advanced training
under Kam Thye Chow, one of the leading experts in the field. Since
my training in the Lotus
Palm Method Thai Yoga Massage, I have incorporated all
of my history of body work to help people experience healing and
a state of calm relaxation.
I have been a long time student and teacher of many spiritual
practices, meditation, breathing techniques, and healing modalities.
My passion is leading people in experiences of raising
consciousness using a variety of integrated techniques. I began
my career as a youth minister in traditional religion, then studying
with Native American medicine men, mystical spirituality of India,
and recently Aramaic and Sufi Mysticism.
I have 15 years prior experience as a Spiritual and Psychological
Counselor and I integrate my background and experience to help people
heal on emotional, physical, spiritual and mental levels. I'm
a certified Sound Healer and conduct workshops
jointly with my wife, Lynn, to help people heal on all levels and
experience deep states of Divine and human love consciousness.
