I'm all about the energy. I've been a pioneer in the life force energy field. I have 30+ years experience and was instrumental in bringing Pranic Healing and Ho'oponopono to MA, NH and VT. I've been trained in and taught Reiki, Qi Gong, Tai Chi, Pranic Healing and Ho'ponopono. Now I am part of an elite group of Trivedi Healers that have scientific validation on showing the effects of my energy work. I am a best selling author with several e-books on Amazon kindle. I take clients as a one time or membership basis. For my membership clients I provide on-going daily energy support. I love to teach about the energy behind things and the real keys to becoming more connected to your higher soul and the God of your understanding.
