Grounding & Holistic Energy Practitioner

Hi, I'm Mara, I am a Lead Instructor in the Health and Human Services Department at Langara College, Vancouver, Canada where I taught Energy Awareness through transformational learning and self-development in the Healing Sciences stream in the former Integrative Energy Healing™️ Intensive, and an Internship Coordinator and Clinical Supervisor in the former Advanced Integrative Energy Healing™ Certificate program.

I have enhanced my skills by developing a specialty in somatic and trauma-based Integrative Energy Healing™ for trauma. I am a certified Transformative Wholistic Reintegration (TWR/WHEE) facilitator. I was invited to participate as an Advanced Integrative Energy Healing research intern for eight months of research with Fraser Health Authority's forensic nurse team dealing with vicarious trauma and managing stress in the workplace. Where the findings were presented at the Energy Psychology Conference in 2015 in B.C. The Strategic Resilience for First Responders and the Strategic Resilient for First Nations Communities programs were created out of this research in 2015-2020. Opening up to a new paradigm, I was one of the pioneers in using Advanced Integrative Energy Healing in Vancouver Coastal Health and Fraser Health Authority's eating disorder recovery community since 2012, where it was used for the first time consecutively for recovery support. In addition, I have extensive experience using Advanced Integrative Energy Healing in an addictions treatment recovery arena, since 2011.

I am deeply grateful to have found this work as it has changed my entire experience of myself, how I interact with others, and how I navigate

my life.  

Holistic health is a concept in medical practice upholding that all aspects of people’s needs, psychological, physical and social/cultural should be taken into account and seen as a whole, understanding that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. From the standpoint of holistic health, the disease is viewed to be the result of physical, emotional, spiritual, social and environmental imbalance.

Tibetan Singing Bowls - According to Tibetan oral tradition, the existence of singing bowls dates back to the time of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni (560 - 480 B.C.). The tradition was brought from India to Tibet, along with the teachings of the Buddha, by the great tantric master Padmasambhava in the 8th century A.D.

Singing bowls produce sounds that invoke a deep state of relaxation which naturally assists one in entering into meditation, the ultimate goal being enlightenment. They are a quintessential aid to meditation and can be found on private Buddhist altars, and in temples, monasteries and meditation halls throughout the world.

Tibetan singing bowls are used for deep relaxation, stress reduction, holistic healing. Many people find that the rich blend of harmonic overtones which the bells produce has a direct effect upon their chakras. The metal bowls are created of 5 or 7 metals, each blended and hammered by hand

Playing the bells usually causes an immediate centring effect. The tones set up a "frequency following response" that creates a balancing left/right brain synchronization. Meditating on the subtle sounds of the Tibetan singing bowl tunes one into the universal sound within and without. 

In 2013, I travelled to Pondicherry, Southern India for an Internship through One World Service where my primary interest was working with Tamil village women and children and local health providers teaching biofield healing, breathing techniques, meditation, and conscious movement. I was delighted to offer energy healing treatments to Tamil villagers through the Thamarai Healing Center in Edyachavady near Auroville.

Some benefits to using essential oils and aromatherapy include

Cultivating these concepts of balance and adaptation to a natural flow through movement has evolved into conscious movement teachings for healing and body health. My meditation practice and spiritual principles are now at the qualitative and quantitative level following the Integral Yoga Psychology approaches. I blend elements of intuitive and spiritual awareness, and celestial insights (Channel medium, Integral Yoga Psychology, evolutionary astrology), spiritual healing (Advanced Integrative Energy Healing, healing medium), meridian based modalities (TWR/WHEE, internal trajectories, and the 12 meridians, foot reflex points), somatic-based approaches (Somatic Physiology), conscious movement, meditation, relaxation and imagery, sound, and awareness dialogue.

If we accept that everything has a vibrational frequency, then it’s not too much of a leap to understand that the things we come in contact with can directly impact our body frequency. A healthy human body has a frequency of 62 to 72 megahertz (MHz). Different things we come in contact with can raise or lower this frequency. For example, if you’re feeling under the weather and have sniffles due to a minor bug, your body frequency might be a tiny bit lower than usual.

Remember, everything has a frequency, including what we put on or in our bodies. A great example is food. The canned or processed stuff can have a frequency close to zero… but fresh produce can reach 15 MHz. Our behaviour and even our thought patterns themselves can influence our body frequency quite a bit. As you might suspect, negative thoughts will lower your frequency (by as much as 12 MHz). Conversely, positive thoughts can raise it by 10 MHz. For most of us, it’s tough to think positive thoughts all the time. That’s where the external influences come in.

The healing potential of essential oils ranges from creating an aroma to generating a relaxing environment, to uplifting, stimulating and restoring physical and emotional well-being. Essential oils travel directly to the limbic brain when they are inhaled when using an ultrasonic and nebulizing atomization, or direct inhalation. They can have profound effects on moods, emotions, and other areas controlled by the central nervous system. It's important to use high grade essential oils even if you are just using a diffuser as you don't want to be breathing in any impurities and or contamination.
