"Healing is using Divine Love and Truth to embrace what we fear most, open what we have closed and soften what we have hardened; healing is becoming who we are, in perfect harmony with life." Coach Tony
§ Healing and Other Services
In addition to spiritual life coaching, I provide personal healing services, host meditation and discussion groups, and facilitate workshops and retreats.
Reiki: Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a healing technique, administered by "laying on of hands," that is used for relaxation and stress reduction. This gentle, yet powerful, technique promotes all levels of healing, inner peace and balance. The word Reiki is a combination of two words, Rei and Ki. Rei means God Consciousness, Universal or the Higher Power. Ki means life energy. Simply translated, Reiki means "spiritually guided life energy."
The benefits of Reiki are many, including:

Feather of Fire Shamanic Healing: Shamanism is the world's oldest spiritual practice and healing system, and is used to achieve and maintain well-being and healing for the individual, as well as the community. Shamanism is about living life in balance and harmony, the freedom from illusions and limitations and the celebration of the Spirit within. As a shamanic healer, I am guided to combine ancient teachings with traditioanl and contemporary rituals to bring forth spiritual wisdoms and facilitate healing. These wisdoms are used to address specific life issues and circumstances, provide insight to dreams and visions involving spiritual symbolism including animals and nature, and to support connecting to inner guidance. The shamanic healer is a channel for the healing work of the Spirit. Shamanic healing is working with Spirit and spiritual helpers to restore balance and harmony in the individual, the community and the universe.
Feather of Fire Shamanic Healing, Practice and Study: In March of 2007, I launched the 6-month Shamanic healing, practice and studies program for those who are interested in learning about shamanism, and shamanic healing and ritual. We will use shamanic teachings, tools, and techniques to connect to your inner guidance, to connect to your inner path of the healer, teacher, guide or warrior, and incorporate it with your daily living.

Shamanic Healing Rituals
Soul Retrieval: Soul retrieval is a powerful shamanic healing ritual that restores soul loss. Through our life, we experience various forms of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual trauma where, in that moment, a piece of our soul essence breaks away. This is done out of a need for survival. When the soul part leaves, it can take some aspect of you are. Having soul loss can manifest as having issues with being or expressing your creativity, trusting yourself or others, feeling powerless, not having or speaking your own voice or loss of memories of parts of your life. With the soul retrieval ritual, the shaman or shamanic healer works with Spirit and spirit helpers to reconnect the dissociated or fragmented soul part with the individual. This effectively powerful technique is an important step in one's healing.
Extraction Healing: Your personal power is lessened either by loss of spiritual power as with soul loss or by the presense of a spiritual intrusion. The extraction healing ritual is the extraction or removal of the spiritual intrusion. The shaman or shamanic healer works with Spirit in performing this ritual.
Power Animal Retrieval: The Universe provides us spiritual assistance as we live our life journey. This assistance can be in the form of a spiritual power animal. The power animal retrieval is a ritual where the shaman or shamanic healer locates, brings forth and connects the power animal with the person. The shamanic healer also provides instruction and guidance on nurturing and cultivating this powerful spiritual relationship.

Healing Rituals and Ceremony:
The Shaman's Path:
The phoenix is a symbol of transformation. I took this picture of a thunderbird, eagle or phoenix petroglyph, in the Petroglyph National Monument in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Healing Meditation and Ritual: Meditation is a technique used to relieve stress and anxiety, relax, get in touch with emotions, learn to go with the flow, and improve mental and physical health. There are many definitions of meditation. However, many religions and spiritual practices use meditation, prayer and devotion to connect to a higher or greater power. Edgar Cayce said, "prayer is like talking to God, meditation is a way of listening to God."
Meditation, including guided mediation and visualization, is one of the tools I may use in a spiritual life coaching session. It is designed to support achieving the overall coaching goal. Also, I facilitate meditation and discussion groups.
See the calendar for the schedule of Meditation, Affirmation and Healing Circles in the Washington, DC and New York City areas. My services also include healing meditations and other rituals for individual and groups.
Workshops, retreats and individual consultation: I facilitate workshops and retreats covering topics as personal and spiritual development for adults and youth; community ritual; mind, body and spirit; and staff and board development for nonprofit organizations.
