How our Brains Foster Wrongful Convictions
Wrongfully convicted Back in college my social psychology professor, Elliot Aaronson Ph.D., told us a story over 3 lectures that had us absolutely riveted. It was about a young man Bradley Nelson Page (not to be confused with Dr. Bradley Nelson), a UC Berkeley student who had been accused of murdering his girlfriend. Dr. Aaronson led us through all the factors of the interrogation that led Page to a false confession of her murder. That story left me with a sense of awe about how effective persuasion could be. But it also left me profoundly...
read moreGhosts that Interfere with Healing
I was searching for effective means to address psychosis, and talking to a colleague (an M.D.), who shares my passion for integrative healing modalities. I asked him if he’d heard about effective approaches to address psychosis, and he pointed me to Dr. Barbara Stone and Robert W. Alcorn, MD who straddle the world between western medicine, shamanic healing and energy medicine. Earthbound Spirit Attachments: aka ghosts On their website, souldetective.net, I was guided to learn about earthbound spirit attachments (aka ghosts). I learned...
read moreTwo Perspectives on How Emotions are Made
Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, neuroscientist, TED speaker, and author of the book, “How Emotions are Made,” says that we construct our own emotions. When I first heard this it sounded so preposterous! Emotions feel so innate. When something happens, we don’t sit there trying to figure out how to respond. In fact, we often feel something first, right before we have a good sense of our story around it. So how did she come to the conclusion that we construct our emotions? As I listened to her book, I realized her views match what I have been telling...
read moreTaming the Sugar Monster
The Sugar monster I had a client who had a sugar addiction, and found it impossible to resist sweets. People were regularly bringing in baked goods and candy to work. And it wasn’t usual for him to eat an entire serving tray of cookies! He often said his sugar addiction was so bad that it was even easier to give up alcohol! He had been eating this way for his entire life, and so had others in his family of origin! Releasing the causes After the 1stsession, he reported becoming more consciously aware of his eating and how it affected...

My Fountain of Youth: Interrupted I spent the week of Christmas of 2018 doubled over in pain, with horrible stomach cramps and diarrhea. The mold I had inadvertently ingested along with my tomatoes was wreaking havoc on my digestive system. This was not how I wanted to spend the holiday! Then when I did recover, the problems would resurface whenever I ate tomatoes. Had a developed an allergy or intolerance to tomatoes? After that bout of mold toxicity, my body seemed to continue to decline from there. It began with the reoccurring...
read moreThe Power of Addressing the Metaphysical Causes
My new client came to me with a list of concerns he wanted to address. As I customarily do, I ask if he’d like to me to ask his subconscious where to start. He agreed, and when I did, I got that we needed to address pain, which was not on his list! When I asked him about it, he said, oh yes, with my MS (multiple sclerosis), I have regular back, neck and shoulder pain. His lower back pain could be so bad that sometimes he couldn’t get out of bed for over 10 minutes! He rated the pain as a 8.5/10! When I asked him when he hadn’t put it...

A few weeks ago, the gardener for a large private estate in The Highlands in North Seattle invited me for a tour. I jumped at the opportunity! My Mini Vacation As we entered the gated community of The Highlands, it felt like we had completely left the city behind. The neighborhood is encased in Redwoods! As we approached the Gardens, my gardener friend said, “and this is where I start whistling”! It wasn’t long before I could see why! The property is located against the waters overlooking a stunning view of the Olympics. Every...
read moreThe Power of Protect Stones
Three months ago, I was introduced to the power of gemstones through shungite. The vendor next to my table at a wellness fair, Cosmic Reality was selling shungite, and I found myself drawn to the their table. The Power of Shungite They told me that they were bee-keepers and that they had lost all their colonies. In a desperate attempt to find a solution to bring back the bees, they discovered shungite. They raised more bees, and this time put little shungite pellets in the entrances to their hives, and found that this allowed their hives...
read moreWhy You Must Protect Yourself from Electromagnetic Frequencies (EMFs)
I once had a client who had a bump in her mouth that wouldn’t go away. The lump would shrink with the release work I did. But it would keep coming back. She was living in Taiwan at the time. Inside her apartment were big-screen TVs that were wired to computers. The apartment was filled with EMFs (Electromagnetic Fields) throughout the building, and I got that the EMFs were interfering with her ability to heal. Her bump did not go away until she moved back home to her low-tech apartment in the US. I had another client who was not sleeping...

My feline fur baby Tuk Tuk just turned 15. One and a half years ago, she developed horrible leg cramps that seemed to strike randomly. She’d scream with fear, and then struggle to walk. I realized that by massaging her back legs, I could get the blood flowing again, and she’d be back on her feet as if nothing had happened. I was very concerned. The diagnoses As a Holistic Brain Health Practitioner, I was determined to figure out what was going on. Over the next few days I realized she was getting blockages of blood flow in her hind...
