| many changes in
my life. Little did I realize that these "problems" were actually
blessings in disguise, and all that I had been learning and studying
since 1984 would all come together!
I opened my store, Whispering Hoop, the
summer of 2004 in Solomon's, Maryland. I wanted a safe place for
people to come to find the answers and tools they needed to progress
on their journey through life. I sold the store to Shari and Michele
in March of 2006, so that I could take care of my mother after she
became ill. They renamed the store Inner Equinox , and
have grown and expanded. I still participate in activities they have
at the store, and feel very honored that they are so welcoming and
sharing of their store with me and with everyone.
- I believe that there is far more to life than what we
initially perceive.
- I believe in the power of our thoughts and our prayers.
- I believe we are all doing the best we can, and I honor where
you are in your life.

New Moon Hoop This is a leaderless group
in that we all sit in a circle as one. Each woman is asked to own
and honor the work we have been asked to do by adding her own
energy, ideas, dreams, prayers and sacred thoughts to make the
circle whole. Women are Sacred. During the new Moon, women
rededicate themselves to resting and renewing our bodies and spirits
beginning with honoring the sacred connection between our womb and
the cycle of Grandmother Moon. Understand that rest is needed during
our moon-time to allow for rest, cleansing, care of our bodies and
our energy. We must proclaim this time for women - for ourselves!
This ceremony restores energy to the healer within so we can heal
others during the next moon cycle. The circle is safe and nourishing
to each sister in the circle. This is an ancient women's hoop of all
nations/people.
Come together with pure intent to
supporting the healing Mother Earth and the restoring of balance of
male and female healing energy. We meet within 4 days of the New
Moon - a birthing moon. Bring some simple food to share for the food
round, or flowers for the circle, or candles/sages circle materials
as you are guided to do so.
Reiki Treatments A
deeply relaxing and healing experience, which creates an internal
shift that begins an emotional, mental and physical cleansing.
Reiki is a
perfect complement to all other healing and medical treatments. It
will not interfere with medications or procedures, other than to
make them more effective and the person more comfortable. It will
speed up the healing process.
Why and who needs Reiki? Reiki will help to replenish your body's energy, and
restore your mental and emotional clarity and focus. Reiki not only
works to rid the body and mind of symptoms of dis-ease, it also
treats the root cause. Reiki creates an internal shift that begins
an emotional, mental and physical cleansing. It re-establishes
equilibrium on all levels, loosening up blocked energy and promoting
a state of total relaxation. Reiki Treatments Reiki Classes and
