Energy Work

Michelle is a Level III Reiki Practitioner and Angel Empowerment Practitioner who uses an intuitive mix of both trainings during energy therapy sessions. Crystals, crystal grids and sound frequency are also used to support the work during these sessions.
Everything is energy, mood and health can be affected by what we consume and what we are around which can bring our energetic body out of balance.
Each session is begun with the intention of being in the highest good of the client.
Everyone is able to affect their own energy, Michelle is a channel to help focus and amplify your own abilities. You are in control on the table and what you get out of your session is up to you. Receive messages, work on specific issues either mentally or physically or just take an hour for your self to relax.
One hour Reiki Sessions are lead by intuition but a full body guided clearing, balancing of the Chakras and grounding are always included. Cutting energetic cords as they are presented is also often necessary as well.
Holistic Henna sessions are similar with a quick energy session followed with an intuitive henna design.
Oracle card readings can also be added on to any session if clarity to questions is desired.

"Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy." - reiki.org

Henna

I first picked up a henna cone in the fall of 2006 while visiting my sister-in-law Andrea. She told me of a new craft she had discovered online and proceeded to tell me about henna and how it works as she drew the most amazing design on my feet. When she was finished she gave me a cone and a "How To" bible she had found on hennapage.com and told me to give it a try. I sat at a piece of loose leaf and all that ran through my head was that I would try just to appease Andrea, I already had so many different types of crafting on the go I couldn't possibly pick up one more. Little did I know squeezing that first cone would lead to a form of expression I didn't know was within me, a beautiful art to share with anyone who would sit still long enough to receive, a source of pocket money, and a passion. I am so grateful to Andrea for showing me what a little mud can do.Since that time I have learned, taught and shared countless hours with this magical herb. It has opened doors to both my creativity and spirituality. Although it is no longer the all encompassing obsession it once was I still enjoy sharing it’s beauty with clients and having it’s influence in my other artwork.

Art

Henna has opened so many creative areas for me.  It took me from being an amateur photographer with an eye for colour and composition and a part time doodler to perfecting line drawing and breaking down design.
In 2013 I started a mixed media art journaling journey that would forever change my life. I and two other friends began taking LifeBook, an online mixed media art journaling class hosted by the amazing Tamara Laporte. Every week Tam would bounce into my inbox with a lesson for us to do. Every month there was a lesson by Tam and the other weeks she had curated lessons from 24 other instructors. That year we faithfully gathered on Sunday evenings and started our lesson of the week.  LifeBook introduced me to technique and supplies that I hadn't ever heard of! So began my foray into working with more than lines and henna red.  I welcomed collage, inks, acrylics and watercolours!  My creatively manic mind went on a bender.
Learning and exploring has lead to showing and selling my work in solo and group exhibits and accepting the title of “artist”. I almost always have henna infused bits of whimsey on the go in the studio and am always learning new mediums and techniques. I really enjoy creating practical art, pieces painted intuitively and made into items for use. Paintings, cards, handmade journals, bags, pouches etc can be seen at my studio or in the Gift Shop in the Beaverlodge Cultural Centre.
