Transformational Journey...Passion behind this business:
I am here today with a deep understanding that everything and everyone in "our world" impacts our wellness. And our wellness also impacts "everything and everyone" in our world It is from this place, I developed all the healing modalities that I offer up today.
As a kid, I got that
wellness and emotional support didn't work in my family. My father was bi-polar.
My mother was chronically ill and at 44 died from lung cancer. When western
medicine didn't save her, I took in that western medicine was Crazy
and definitely not effective at promoting wellness or stopping disease. . From there, I
started a life long journey with spirituality and holistic health to find the
answers to healing my family and myself... Fast forward, at age 44, just like
my mom, I developed ovarian cancer.
I declared this cancer
event my "Spiritual Transformation" and continued an intense exploration to heal
the core causes of this disease.
Yet with my whole world
around me not working: job stability, lack of meaningful connection with biological
family, mold infested old apartment, living alone, I couldn't heal the cancer with all this! And maybe the cancer was
about loneliness, lack of power with career and all of that.
When surgery became the
best option to remove massive tumor growth, I aligned with western
medicine, while continuing all the spiritual/holistic practices. My family came
in to help, the surgery was successful and to the amazement of all involved,
especially the doctors, I healed very rapidly with very little cancer present.
No further treatment required.
Special
Recognition to my Communities of
Love: I am thankful to my father who really
had my back when I was quite sick, and supported my projects and continuing
schooling- even though he really wished that someday I would "get a real job
with benefits". The ten years of corporate work and life/spiritual coaching with
organizations such as One Spirit Interfaith Seminary and Landmark Education is
foundational to what I am up to now. The community support and teachings from
Sacred Light Fellowship, Kripalu Yoga Center,the Open Center and so many more
spiritual centers, continue to feed my spirit. And my entire family and
friends... All of these people and organizations have greatly
enhanced and rounded out my personal development as a healer, leader, coach and
community advocate.
And I
promise the "Cleeves Women" who died
from cancer; my mom
Gretchen, Grandmother Gerry Cleeves, Aunt Helen and Aunt Lynne, that the reign
of cancer is over for our family.
