ENERGY HEALING
Shamanic Healing
What if we contemplated for a moment that we perceive as reality is just a mirror of our unconscious programs and beliefs? What we define as dis-ease, as health, what love means to us, what our values and life philosophies are… We can only understand and see the world through the lens of our eyes, and through the maps that we have to guide us.
The map is not the territory. We see things not as they are, but as we are. The Shamanic map has been forgotten. It comes loaded with misunderstanding, misconceptions, cultural connotations and esoteric mysteries.
But shamanism is in our blood with its origins all over the world. There probably wasn’t any hunter gatherer tribe that was not steeped in shamanic traditions! Only at the birth of the modern era and awe of modernisation, science, and favouring the advancement of technology, we’ve forgotten the way we used to live in communion and reverence to Nature and Nature’s way. Even though people lived and breathed ‘shamanism’ for over hundreds and thousands of years – >99% of our ancestry, modern civilisation as we know – it probably has been our Great Forgetting.
We’ve forgotten how to live harmoniously with tribe, with our surroundings, with land. Now we might not even know our neighbours and don’t know what it means to honour land and what it provides. We’ve forgotten how to value and appreciate Animals, how to follow the sun and the stars to know where our food is going to be. Most of all, we’ve forgotten that there is Spirit in all things. Spirit, Nature, we might call it Essence, Source, God, the Dao, Christ force, cosmic energy – it is the named and the nameless.
Across all shamanic cultures, there are core beliefs and practices in common. It is this universality that the core of my healing practices, it is at the heart of shamanism and the birthright of all human beings. This practice to me is more appropriately described as a way of life as much as a practice. It’s the most direct path to connecting to something ‘greater’. I see what I see, I sense what I sense and it isn’t from any religious figurehead, sacred books, or dogmatic teachings. Shamanism has show me the seen and unseen worlds that exist, the ordinary and non-ordinary realities – I just needed to remember the tools in how to perceive them!
The Shamanic map and cosmology knows that Spirit is everything and in everything. This animistic belief means that objects, places, creatures all have a distinct spiritual essence, an energy, a vibration or frequency. For example, the essence and spirit of water, of trees, of crystals, of people around us, even words and intentions!
In a shamanic healing, we become “hollow bones”, a vessel to serve as a channel for the information, energy, insights and the healing that is coming through. It means we journey and connect to the unseen realms to perceive, then receive what we need to bring back to the client. Shamanism is needed now more than ever more, relevant for the times now as Man is influenced by so many external ‘authorities’ than that of his own, disconnected from his true Self more than ever before. We are disconnected from our very nature and to Nature and its teachings of cyclic wisdoms.
Working with shamanism, psychotherapy (and other medical care) can be a comprehensive way to integrate ancient wisdom in a therapeutic and sustainable way in our day to day lives. We’ve just been bogged down by outside influences, others’ voices are filling our minds and we’ve to learn to find our true voice free from corruption, harmful background programs and viruses running through our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. Journey with me to discern your Truth and Self from the masks and personas you’ve taken on. I believe shamanic healing is a way of remembering our true nature and how to come home to a sense of self acceptance and love.
Practical Applications & Benefits
- WORK DIRECTLY WITH THE ENERGETIC MATRIX THAT INFORMS
By working directly with your energy field which informs the rest of the body, we can work beyond just the physical and mental bodies. New information (re-progamming) can come in, remembering that energy is just information that vibrates. Bring yourself into higher, healthier vibrations. Many people can literally feel the difference and see how things can begin to shift at different levels.
- APPLICATION OF ANCIENT WISDOM FOR MODERN TIMES
Energy medicine works at soul level, perceiving patterns and causes of dis-ease that are beyond the comprehension of just the rational and logical mind. After all, the conscious mind can be as little as 10% of our capacity! The scientific world is still catching up to understand the true capabilities and subtleties of consciousness. Natural healing techniques have been around for as long as Man has, learn how to work with its medicine in modern times.
- RETURN TO A SENSE OF CONNECTION TO NATURE
Even though we may find ‘balance’ and ‘flow’ again, life can be a constant peeling of the onion. Doing the “inner work” is how we can connect deeply with ourself, developing our self awareness, discernment and listening to the innate wisdom that we all have access to. When energy work is integrated well with our ordinary world, it can feel like a return to your true nature, taking your place of true belonging in the grand nature of the universe.
Connect to ourself means connecting to our true nature
Which is One with Nature Itself
Hands on healing
Reiki & Seichim
Reiki & Seichim (or Sekhem) are both forms of hands on energy healing that is open to any belief system. A treatment includes laying on hands on the major energy centers of the body (fully clothed), energy will be directed and goes to where it is needed in order to achieve flow.
Reiki
Reiki is an ancient healing practice that was rediscovered by Dr Mikao Usui in Japan in the 1920’s. Reiki (pronounced ‘ray-key’) / ‘ki’ means “Universal energy”, “life force”, or “vitality”. Reiki transmits the elemental energy of the Earth, seeking to balance the ‘earth’ in us across our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies.
In general, Earth element brings stability, strength, comfort and grounding. The person who has balance in their earth element can feel a deep connection with the earth and feel more rooted or grounded. These people are able to be calm and have positive thoughts and also experience more balance their lives, facilitating the process to remove blockages created in the physical and psychological bodies.
Seichim / Sekhem
Seichim (pronounced ‘say-keem’) is a powerful thousands of year old healing wisdom from Egypt, and was rediscovered there in 1979 by Patrick Zeigler. Seichim is the Egyptian equivalent term for prana, qi, and ki as used in the Orient to denote “life force”, the energy that binds the universe together and is present in all life. It also refers to the Sanskrit symbol that is defined as “the power of powers”.
The amplitude, frequency and vibration of Seichim is also absorbed from all four elements of Fire, Air Water, and Earth. Seichim vibrates of the divine feminine energy; these female energies reflect and magnify a frequency of healing, compassion, loving-kindness, and protection that is channeled through the healer to the receiver.
Practical Applications & Benefits

Reiki and Seichim supports medical procedures and practices and neither conflicts or interferes with corrective treatments. It works in perfect harmony with other healing techniques and modalities, a natural healing system that supports traditional medicine.

- RESTORES AND ACTIVATES THE LIFE FORCE ENERGY
Allows energy to be directed and naturally flow where needed to the body relieves energetic blockages and congestion. It is the congestion or stagnation of energy in the body that causes discomfort and dis-ease. Blockages can be very real and tangibly felt, as they can also be subtle and long standing. Reiki & Seichim energizes and balances the whole body.
- WELLNESS OBJECTIVES, DEEP RELAXATION
Reiki is known to be a consistent method for relieving and reducing stress, tension and hypertension. It releases the congested energy produced in day to day activities in a pleasant and gentle manner preventing the deepening of tension in the body and mind. It’s also been proven that Reiki will strengthen the immune system, overall it assists the body to facilitate an environment for healing on all levels — physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Other benefits of bioenergetic therapies include deep relaxation, something all of us need more of!

Through my session with Cat, the insight into my subconscious allowed me to hear my own intuition more clearly and help move me from being stuck in my anxiety to a place of more acceptance and understanding. Cat uses her conscious presence to construct skillful dialogue which guides you to the heart of your own awareness. She sensitively attunes to you to create a safe space for exploration within yourself. With her guidance, we have worked through some of my grief, anxiety, and trauma. I am truly grateful for her and her work.
Karen PattersonNew York, USA 
My experience of Reiki with Cat was pleasantly powerful. With the first session, I immediately sensed her presence and vital energy from the start. I felt the therapy making its way through my physical and energetic body, different sensations all along which are always difficult to put into words, sensations of deep relaxation, sensation of wellbeing and of even going in deeper into the emotional body. I came out of the therapy with a sense of release and total relaxation. I felt an immediate sense of wellbeing and reconnected, and during the rest of the day I felt revitalised and a sense of great strength not only physically but mentally too.
I have had Reiki before with another therapist which I truly felt its positive effects but with Cat it is a tangible powerful experience.
Raquel WebbCadiz, Spain
I had a really great experience today with Cat's reading and shamanic journey insights. It was like a therapy session but on a higher level than what one would get from an everyday therapist. I had someone who listened to me, who gave ideas for new approaches to my life, who gave inspired advice and guidance!

I recently had an energy healing with Cat and it was one of the most nourishing experiences that I've had in a long time! I had space held for me, received many frequencies of healing light, compassion, and my body was able to release blockages. I felt my chakras being worked on and spontaneously releasing one by one, I felt so nourished and whole afterwards. Cat is definitely a channel for the divine feminine, of love and her heart is so huge! I can feel her hands are healing and as a person, I feel comforted and held in her presence and loving heart.
