What drew you to this profession?
Church bells ringing when I was born! I’ve had a lifelong study of and interest in spirituality, singing and creative arts. Unresolved health issues of Lyme, Ehlers-Danlos and a NDE drew me deeper into the sacred work of the gong and sound yoga healing.
How does your work differ from others in your profession?
I use a diverse blend of vibrational healing techniques from music, science, creative arts therapy, shamanic light body practices, sacred sound journeys and soul retrievals. Passion for honoring our unique vibration through play grounding, laughter, primal sound and vocal yoga. Giving others hope and inspiration by sharing my “wounded healer” experience of undiagnosed Lyme and EhlersDanlos. Experimental and directed vocal/instrumental compositions and improvisations.
What should someone expect from working with you?
Strong intuitive and cognitive guidance, commitment, compassion and respect. Honoring that we are all unique vibratory beings.
What changes do you have planned for 2023?
Very excited to be adding vocal arts and sound coaching sessions where I will help people find their “goldilocks” note using soul singing, improvisation and deep listening. These “one with sound” exercises will help improve their voice and vocal confidence, expand their range and help strengthen their breathing/diaphragmatic support. Looking forward to meeting in person again for community “call and response” and Om Choir chanting!
What is most important for Natural Awakenings’ readers to know? Drink deeply. Hummingbird’s powerful medicine of vibration teaches you to listen deeply and be in the stillness of the present moment. It shows us how to take the journey without hesitation or expectation to find the perfect resonances that tune and nourish mind, body and spirit. It is only in the stillness of the present moment that we can clarify, resonate and reclaim our best self. See ad, page 26.
