Healers often have to
WALK THEIR
OWN PATHS
of healing first…I am no exception.
While many of the details aren’t so important, I do want to share that my early life circumstances conditioned me to store a great deal of unresolved sadness, grief, and anger in my body. Over time, those stuck energies created a critical immune system crisis and I found myself unable to fight off illness, even with all that modern mainstream medicine had to offer. While at the literal threshold of life and death, I was given the contact information for a ‘healer’ that happened to live near my home in Seattle.
Do you believe in
Grace … Magic … the Universe …
conspiring and co-creating
with us for our perfect path
of healing and our destiny for
living a whole and rich life?
When I arrived at the healer’s office I could barely walk, sit, or stand. It hurt to just lay down. Because my immune system had deteriorated to such a degree, my ‘traditional’ doctor would’ve been quite angry if he knew I was up and about in the world, in the vulnerable state that I was in.
I was past the point of being rational and reasonable and was desperate for a breakthrough and some relief.
I remember nothing of my first treatment with the healer. When my session was over, I was tucked into bed where I remained for several days. The first sign that something had shifted came the following week when I had to get ready and make my way to an appointment with a disease specialist to discuss some significant decisions to support my healing. To my surprise, getting ready for and traveling to the doctor’s office — for the first time in months,
my overall pain was reduced and I felt measurably better.
The doctor finished his examination and said that he’d never seen someone with the kind of extreme symptoms I had show so much improvement in such a short amount of time. He told me whatever I’d done was perfect and to keep doing it. I never said a word to him about my energy healing session. I also never needed to go back to him for another appointment ever again.
I did however keep going back to the healer because it seemed to be the only thing giving me both relief and actual healing.
One day, she asked if I’d ever considered becoming a healing practitioner myself. I was stunned by her question and before I could answer, her insight and intuition was that I was a ‘natural born healer and perhaps that was my unrealized calling’ — which was the silver lining of my experience. So many realities began coalescing and coming together for me from that moment forward.
It’s true that a single question and a moment of awareness can shift energy and change your whole life.
That was almost 20 years ago. I’d had a spiritual awakening and knew there was no way to logically explain away my experiences.
For the first time in so long, I was grateful for my health and life. I knew the best way I could honor everything on every level with gratitude was to embrace the work.
Once I got to the place of experiencing sustained energy again, I could finally relax and was at peace. I felt safe, protected, and loved and had a quiet, calm mind. And most importantly I felt a deeper connection to my higher self.
As time went on and my self-discovery and spiritual journey deepened and expanded, people would remark at how light, bright, and radiant I’d become. This just confirmed for me that this was something I wanted to share with others, whether that meant in subtle ways or with those who were consciously seeking it.
Guiding someone towards connecting
with their higher self and true essence is one
of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done.
Because I have always been an empath and because of my own healing journey, I cannot walk through life without feeling and recognizing other’s suffering and imbalances. Guiding my clients to their own inner wisdom and helping shine a light on their unique inner beauty, renews their mind-heart-body-connection and supports them in living their very best life
May you seek to know the beauty
of your own light and share it
abundantly with others.

Lauren gives a facial like no other facial I’ve ever received — it’s even better than a full body massage! She is centered, and intuitive, and being in her presence is calming and restorative. I am also the happy recipient of her energy work, which helps move stuck energy blocks, leaving me feeling lighter after each session. Lauren is not only a great esthetician and healing practitioner, but someone I am pleased to call a friend — and someone who always fills me with energy. She is a delight and a joy and I am so thankful to have her in my life!
