Happy New Moon Dear Friends! Oooh I love these dark nights.
I'm back from a magical trip to Rome, and as I settle into the swing of Colorado life I wanted to share a bit more with you all about my first core practice area: Individual and Ancestral Healing.
In my next bi-monthly newsletter I'll delve into my second core practice area: Animal Communication and Healing.
But first....
Starling Murmurations
On my birthday last week my dear friend and I were completely mesmerized by these "murmurations" we spotted above the River Tiber in Rome. I edited some shots together into this little video below as an offering to you all of the exquisite beauty that surrounds us at all times:

And now to dive a little deeper into our human experience...
Ancestral Healing and Why It Matters
Not only our blood and bones, we also inherit the spirit and energy of our ancestors.
We are not alone and we never have been. We live in a paradox: we are our unique, individual, sovereign selves and also inextricably linked to all the other beings who came before and who come after.
We are each rivers of being. Our individual river flows into and out of the rivers of everyone else. And so when we tend to our own energetic and spiritual health, we also support the wellness of our ancestors (and vice versa.)
There are literally countless approaches to ancestral healing. Our awareness of the ancestors and their impact on our lives stretches back millenia, so what I'm offering here is nothing new.
My own approach to individual and ancestral healing is a synthesis of all my learnings in this space from several teachers over many years, my own experience working with and healing my ancestral lines (an ongoing endeavor), and ongoing meditations and shamanic journeys with my own ancestors and spirit guides to seek their wisdom and guidance.
Broadly speaking, there are 6 main aspects of the individual and ancestral healing services that I offer. Folks can progress stepwise through this healing portal, or tend to various aspects at different times as needed:
- Create your ancestral map. Many, many ancestral lines or rivers flow into our individual lives. What are they? There are blood lines (biological family), milk lines (adoptive parents and other influential adults in our upbringing), teaching lines (worldviews, beliefs that are passed down), and many others that shape who we are in this current life.
- Meet ancestors+spirit guides who are spokespersons for each of your ancestral lines or rivers. Who are the "well" ancestors (beings who have fully completed their passage into the spirit realm) who represent each of your major ancestral rivers? We partner with these beings to identify our ancestral gifts and also heal ancestral wounds.
- Identify and integrate the blessings and gifts that descend down your ancestral lines. What are the unique gifts, capacities, wisdom, and skills that you inherit from those who came before? These blessings are a tremendous resource for living the fullness of your current life as well as for tending spiritual and energetic illnesses in your ancestral line.
- Tend to spiritual and energetic illness in the ancestral lines. What spiritual and energetic ailments, wounds, and imbalances have not yet been identified or resolved in your family? Common spiritual and energetic illnesses in ancestral lines include: soul loss, power loss, energetic entanglements (cords, curses, misplaced energies), possession by spirits, unwell death (wandering or lost spirits), and expired vows or commitments. These phenomena can affect many aspects of your current life, including your physical health, work/vocation, and relationships.
- Tend to your own spiritual and energetic wellness as a convergence of all the ancestral rivers. How do the ancestral illnesses affect your current wellbeing? What specific spiritual and energetic illnesses are ready to be tended to in your present life? We also work here to integrate the blessings and gifts of the ancestral lines into your current life in very practical ways.
- Prepare for one's own "ancestralization", i.e., your death and passage into the spirit realm. What is the spiritual and energetic legacy you will leave behind? How can you tend to the wellness of your descendants? How does your individual life contribute to the wellness of your family and ancestral lines?
As you can see, there is SO very much to explore together, and each individual's journey is unique in this space. I would love to support you in this profound healing process.
Lastly, here is a link to a podcast episode I recently recorded on these topics if you would like to explore further:

Up Next: Animal Communication and Healing
We share our Mother Earth with so many other creatures, and our lives have intermingled with theirs for millenia. Our wellness affects them, and their wellness affects us.
In my next newsletter, I'll share more about my approach to animal communication and healing, but in the meantime here's a playful video we captured with my seagull friend in Rome....and yes that's the Vatican(!!) in the background. Wild.

Ready to Work Together?
Have you started to feel an inner nudge to tend to dynamics and patterns in your life or your family that have risen blaringly to the surface, or perhaps have gone on for far too long?
I would love to support your spiritual and energetic wellness, as well as the wellness of your ancestral lines and/or beloved animals.
When you’re ready, go ahead and request a session and we’ll begin the conversation. I’m also happy to set up a free 20-minute consultation to explore a bit together before you invest in individual sessions.
I’m wishing deep wellness of your soul, please feel free to reach out anytime!
