What if the "ghosts" we sense aren't spirits in a haunted house, but the living stories, traumas, and beliefs that haunt our world—from a family argument to a nation's history?
We'll explore a surprising map of healing that merges the non-dual awareness of Dzogchen with the calibrated scale of human consciousness from David Hawkins.
This is a simple, radical practice of opening awareness as the field of existence for healing.

Personal Clearing Sessions
Do you have a memory, or an object, that the very acknowledgement of it feels HEAVY!! What if the weight of that memory, or object, wasn't in the event, but in the thread that binds you to it?
In Your private session, bring the symbol of a story that tangles you—a photo, a keepsake, a song. Together, we'll hold it in clear awareness, allowing the knot to loosen on its own. It's not therapy; it's a return to the spaciousness you forgot was there.
Note if you do not have a physical item we can find a thread together in the session.
This is a simple, radical practice of opening awareness as the field of existence for healing.

What if the "ghosts" we sense aren't spirits in a haunted house, but the living stories, traumas, and beliefs that haunt our world—from a family argument to a nation's history? Join me as I share a personal diary of learning to "whisper" to these ghosts. We'll explore a surprising map of healing that merges the non-dual awareness of Dzogchen with the calibrated scale of human consciousness from David Hawkins.
