The ancient medicine of our collective ancestors is wanting to be shared with the world for all to heal and help others, for us each to embody the caretaker of our community and our Earth and the generations who will inherit what has been gifted. ​

Practice as a Way of Life

As Carlos Castenada stated when sharing the wisdom of Toltec Mesoamerican traditions through Don Juan, the work we must continually do is to keep dissolving the distorted perceptions of ourselves, others and the world that have been placed into our psyches and embedded in our bodies and which interfere with being in right relationship with ourselves, our families, cultures and societies of this earth.  The practice is to continually return ourselves into alignment with the nature of life, in service of life.  For many of us - especially those of us who have grown up under the influence of systems that disconnect us from nature, the source of life, from family and each other, which is all of us really to a greater or lesser degree - this is no small feat.  Even with decades of training and discipline and spiritual development, I am continually faced with inner battles and challenges that throw me completely off balance from time to time.  The practice is ultimately that: a practice.  It is a way of life, to honor life in every moment - and to forgive ourselves when we don't so that we can quickly bring our attention back to loving and nurturing ourselves and others and the planet.

The website for my service to you is named Dhyana Healing - not because of any healing I perform but - in honor of my mother and the ancestors who guided her to channel that word to be my name and what it represents. I used to tell people in high school who asked me what it meant that I was 'working on it'.  I have been guided by my ancestors to keep practicing connecting with and channeling the medicine in the meaning of that word, dhyana.  I am still working on it.  In essence, I didn't realize this at the time I spontaneously named this site but - this is me, healing.   Welcome and thank you for the collective work you are doing.

"We have been the keepers of rites that usher in who we are becoming as a people, as a planet. These [healing spiritual] processes are not only for the Indians, but for the entire world.”
