Why did you decide to combine your medical degree with a more holistic way of healing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the driving factors was the fact that I suffered from cluster headaches since school and since my studies suffered with this debilitating disease that western medicine didn’t have an answer for and so I was forced to look at healing and relief for myself and to look at alternative means of healing like CM, HM and acupuncture. In exploring those things, I discovered that there was a way that I could holistically address the ailments of my body and not have the horrible side effects that pharmaceutical medicine was having. Adding to that, as I was going through med school and engaging with patients and sensing the superficial level that we were working with healing, I felt compelled to do more for my patients where I could actually make the kind of impact that I had explored medicine in the first place.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did you know that you were an intuitive healer and when did you know that this was the path for you? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing intuitive doesn’t mean that you have to be an intuitive healer. Being intuitive means that you are able to pick up with more than your 5 senses or explore the world with more than your five senses and I really only became cognizant of that when I began to explore my reiki studies and I am so grateful for that time as it gave me a language for the things I was experiencing and in hindsight, in early childhood I was talking to the fairies and there were many stories of me engaging with the unseen which when we get older we abandon and forget that it is inherent in us and a part of us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
