1. Are my inquiries and my sessions with Evolve & Empower confidential?

Absolutely, all inquiries and everything discussed in E&E is kept strictly confidential.

2. What if I don't know what type of service will best support me?

No problem, we can arrange a 20-minute complimentary phone call prior to the in-person consultation & your first session for me to learn more about you and your goals. It will also give me a chance to expand on my services to see what will best support you.

3. How many sessions will I need and how often do I need them?

It all depends on your goals, the type of service you are receiving from Evolve & Empower, and if you are seeing other professionals to help support your goals. In general, when a client is working towards a goal, I would encourage them to see me once a week or once every 2 weeks. If we go longer than two weeks it can be counterproductive because we will be playing catch up and not always having enough time to focus on the steps to move forward.

Yes, you can integrate as many services from different avenues to support your needs, goals, and success.

5. What type of payments do you accept?

I accept cash and payments through Venmo, Paypal, and Zelle.

Yes, for new clients only, we accept Groupon for our 60-minute Holistic Love Coach session. ​ *Note- You can only apply one special or discount to one session or purchase at a time.

8. Do you have a 24-Hour cancellation policy?

Sure do; if you reschedule, cancel, or are a no show within 24 hours to your appointment- you will be charged 50% of your session. This payment must be paid before your next session. After 3 Cancellations within the 24-hour window before your appointment, we will no longer be able to work together.

9. Do you have to be a certain age to receive Evolve & Empower's services?

Yes, I only work with adults that are over the age of 18 years old.

1. What is coaching?

Coaching is a co-creating partnership between the Coach and the Client in an uplifting environment. It is designed for thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximize personal and professional potential. It is intended to facilitate the creation/development of personal & professional goals as well as developing and carrying out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals.

2. What is the client’s responsibility within a coaching-client relationship?

The client is solely responsible for their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. They are also solely responsible for their choices and actions with what they decide to do during their coaching sessions and outside of them.

3. What’s the difference between therapy and coaching?

Here is Tony Robbins's explanation about the main distinction between coaching and therapy: “Therapy, also called counseling or psychotherapy, is a long-term process in which a client works with a healthcare professional to diagnose and resolve problematic beliefs, behaviors, relationship issues, feelings and sometimes physical responses. The idea behind therapy is to focus on past traumas and issues to change self-destructive habits, repair and improve relationships and work through painful feelings. In this sense, therapy focuses on the past and on introspection and analysis. The difference between a life coach and therapist is that a life coach sets clients up with a process that may be long or short-term, instead of regular sessions. In life coaching, a client works with a coach, who is not a healthcare professional, in order to clarify goals and identify obstacles and problematic behaviors in order to create action plans to achieve desired results. The process of life coaching takes the client’s current starting point as an acceptable neutral ground and is more action-based from that point onward.”

4. What is Holistic Life/Empowerment Coaching?

In my private practice, as a Holistic Life Coach, I use positive psychology and cognitive behavioral psychology techniques to support your success! This includes focusing on creating and cultivating your empowered mindset, emotional resilience, and using your strengths to achieve your goals. It also means addressing the whole person and working on 5 levels to make sure they are aligned with your goal: With the mind or mental level, I work with clients to identify any underlying narratives and limiting beliefs (in their conscious and subconscious mind) that may be preventing them from achieving their goal(s). I assist my clients by coaching them to move beyond those limiting beliefs and create and incorporate new thoughts, beliefs, and actions that support their goals. With the heart or emotional level, I work with clients on acknowledging how they feel, expressing how they feel, releasing any suppressed emotions or unprocessed emotions, and recognizing when they are indulging or getting stuck in heavier emotions that are negatively affecting their wellbeing and goals. With the body or physical level, I work with clients on taking into consideration what is going on with their wellbeing, relationships, and environments; if their environments and/or relationships are supporting their goals and wellbeing. With your energy or energetic level, means your actual day-to-day energy level (high levels of energy or low). I work with clients to help them have consistent, high levels of energy throughout the day and be able to unwind at night to have a restful sleep. With the spirit or spiritual level, I work with clients and help them to take into account the bigger picture; by having meaning in their life that supports fulfillment and learning from life lessons to be able to grow. Also, taking into consideration any life lessons that show up in your life patterns.

It can also incorporate Holistic Healing, for healing any pain or fear you may have attached or associate to your experience of:

• Having higher levels of Wellbeing & Health
• Being Successful, Abundant, & Empowered
• Creating the love, you want to experience in life, with others, and with yourself

5. What is a Holistic Love Coach?

In my private practice, as a Holistic Love Coach, I am addressing the whole person when it comes to their goals related to love. ​ This session incorporates Holistic Life Coaching, which is taking into consideration the whole person and making sure you are in alignment on all 5 levels to support accomplishing your goal(s): *The Mental- your beliefs, thought processes, & narratives *The Emotional- any emotional wounds or unprocessed emotions, emotional habits/reaction, & connecting to how you feel *The Physical- your health & wellbeing, your relationships, & your environment *The Energetic- addressing any energetic blockages & your energy levels (your vitality & motivation related to your goals) *The Spiritual- looking at the bigger picture; when it comes to life lessons that show up in your life patterns ​ This session can also include Holistic Healing, for healing any pain or fear you may have attached or associate to your experience of love. This approach can deepen your capacity for self-love, self-acceptance, and expanding the degree of all the love and abundance you can receive. I also use proven, researched-based Dating & Relationship Coaching techniques and strategies to support my client’s success! This includes incorporating my knowledge and expertise from my past experiences as an International Matchmaker; where I successfully assisted my clients to enter an exclusive, romantic relationship throughout the UK, Europe, USA, Canada, & Hong Kong. ​ Together~ this is a co-creating partnership in an uplifting environment in the process of achieving your goals related to love. The sessions are designed to give you what you need and to support your growth. It is also intended to deepen, expand, and connect you to the infinite love that is available in your life, within you, and in your relationships.

6. How many coaching sessions will I need?

It all depends on your goals and it’s important to approach your goals with the mindset of giving yourself a reasonable amount of time to reach your goals. It helps to approach your goals from a mindset of giving yourself a month to 3 months and then evaluating your progress and going from there. In general, when a client is working towards a goal, I would encourage them to see me once a week or once every 2 weeks. If we go longer than two weeks it can be counterproductive because we will be playing catch up and not always having enough time to focus on the steps to move forward.

1. What is the history of Energy Healing?

The Ancient Basis of Healing Energy: ​ In almost every culture, dating back thousands of years, there are teachings about energy healing. Although the teachings and terms may vary, an essential principle underlies all of them- that the breath of life and the material form are one and cannot be separated. This principle is the foundation for all comprehensive theories of subtle energy healing. ​ For example, in China, ch'i energy is the basis for healing practices by lay and medical practitioners. In the Indian spiritual traditions refer to Prana as the source or breath of all life. The Japanese term for the energy of life is Ki, and the practice of Kiko is training to promote health. ​ Different cultures, spiritual traditions, and ancient energy healing practices discuss how you can use the universal life force to support your healing, health, wellbeing, and connecting to something more profound that adds more meaning into your personal and/or spiritual growth. However, this does not mean you have to believe in any religion or spiritual practice to receive the benefits of energy healing.

2. Is there any science behind Energy Healing?

Scientists have been performing studies that examine the energy systems of the body for decades. What they have found is that the body generates an electrical field and produces magnetic pulsations. These results have led to the development of Electrocardiograms and Electroencephalograms that measure the currents from the heart and brain. ​ The nerve sheaths of the body also carry electrical currents necessary for growth, repair, and healing. The current seems to attract the white blood cells and stimulate skin cell and connective tissue growth. The current changes as healing progresses. Investigation of the energy emitted by the healer during a healing session indicates that the pulsations range through all of the same frequencies as brain waves: .3 – 30 Hz, falling primarily in 7 – 8 Hz, the alpha state. Medical research has shown that this is the range of frequencies that stimulates healing in the body. Specific frequencies are helpful for particular tissues; for instance, 2 Hz encourages nerve regeneration, 7 Hz bone growth, and 10 Hz ligament repair. There are also many emotional and psychological benefits of receiving energy therapy. Some of the documented benefits that have been found in different research studies include: pain relief or decreased pain level, decreased depression, improved mood, decreased anxiety, diminished symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, decreased stress, decreased headaches and migraines, decreased insomnia & increase inner peace, relief from systems of chemotherapy (during & after), acceleration of post-operative healing/recovery, and much more.

3. What is Healing Touch & Reiki?

Healing Touch and Reiki is a relaxing, nurturing energy therapy that helps to create healing & promotes self-healing as well as restores, rejuvenates, brings into balance your energy system, mind, heart, body, and spirit. Overall, in an Evolve & Empower session, it can support your healing and having higher levels of wellbeing, wellness, love, and empowerment.

4. What is the history of Healing Touch & where is it being used today?

The program (originally known as the Colorado Center for Healing Touch) was developed by Janet Mentgen, BSN, RN, HNC, CHTP/I as a medically-based energy therapy training program for nurses. It has been taught since 1989 and is recognized and endorsed by the American Holistic Nurses Association. ​ Healing Touch is now available in more than 100 hospitals in the United States as part of their patient care systems because of the effective results being reported by patients, staff, and families.

5. What is the history of Reiki & how does it work?

​It was founded by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese educator, who discovered the ancient healing art in Japan in the late 1800s. Dr. Mikao Usui created Usui Reiki, based on the ancient healing practices of the Buddhist and Hindu teachings and from his own study and research. Reiki is a Japanese word meaning "universal life energy". This life force energy can be defined as energy which exists in all created matter. "Ki" is similar in thought to "chi" or "qi" in Chinese medicine. Reiki is hands-on or right above the body, where the practitioner serves as an open channel for transmitting the "Ki" to others. Reiki helps to release blocked energies, cleansing the body of toxins, and creates a state of balance, harmony, and promotes relaxation and healing.

6. How does Evolve & Empower use Energy Therapy?

Evolve & Empower uses traditional techniques of Healing Touch & Usui Reiki as well as customize energetic techniques that I feel intuitively guided to do to support my client's healing and success. All Energy Therapy Sessions will include minor and major chakra balancing and clearing excess energy buildup in the mind, heart, and body that can contribute to mental and emotional imbalances. Additionally, it will include clearing & healing congestive energy and energetic blockages with the purpose to support the body’s ability to heal and return to its natural state of excellent health & wellbeing, vitality, empowerment, and deepen your capacity for love.

7. What is congestive energy and stagnant energy?

Evolve & Empower believes that congestive & stagnant energy is what contributes to energetic blockages. Congestive & stagnant energy or energetic blockages can be found in your mind, heart, body, energy system, and human energy field (which science calls your Biofield). ​ Holistically, Evolve & Empower has found that congestive & stagnant energy is the energy that is being created by heavy emotions (such as stress, fear, pain, etc.). This includes unprocessed emotions and experiences we haven’t fully healed from yet. Additionally, limiting thoughts in our conscious and subconscious mind (such as 'I'm not good enough,' etc.) are also connected to stagnant energy buildup. By breaking up stagnant & congestive energy build-up can assist with clearing energetic blockages and supporting your journey to reach better health & wellbeing.

8. What happens when our energy system becomes depleted or imbalanced?

When you have congestive energy that contributes to energetic blockages, it creates imbalances and depletion in your energy system. As mentioned in the above answer, an example of congestive energy is stress or fear. The practitioner will break up and clear the congestive energy to support healing and promote self-healing. This allows the energy system, mind, heart, body, and human energy field to return back to its natural state of wellbeing.

9. What is a human energy field or biofield? What can negatively affect our biofield?

Your human energy field, aura, or what science calls it your biofield, is the energy that surrounds the human body. Our environment, relationships, thoughts, emotions, and actions all create energy. The energy that you create and the energy in your environment will flow through your energy system within you and around you in your biofield. Holistically, we believe that when congestive energy or energetic blockages are not addressed, then it can allow dis-ease to progress into disease.

10. How does Energy Therapy affect us mentally, emotionally, and physically?

1. Mentally- Our brainwaves are affected by what we are thinking, feeling, and what we are doing. The 5 main brainwaves are listed below: ​ 1. Delta waves- Deep dreamless sleep and the release of human growth hormone 2. Theta waves- Rejuvenating R.E.M sleep and healing & regeneration are stimulated in this state 3. Alpha waves- relaxation, focus, meditative or resting state for the brain, mind/body integration, learning, and it creates a production of serotonin 4. Beta waves- are associated with concentration, arousal, alertness, and cognition but High levels of beta also create anxiety, unease, fight and flight adrenaline 5. Gamma waves- researchers have discovered that this highly active state has been connected to euphoria, universal love, and expanded consciousness ​ With that in mind, many of us face chronic stress or having a constant level of stress in the background that has become normal in modern times. What most Americans are experiencing is constant levels of stress that can keep us in a state of high levels beta triggering our flight or fight adrenaline throughout the day. By the time we get into bed, we are exhausted but unable to have a restful sleep because our mind is still racing and causing us to go into a state of delta. Ideally, we want to fall into a theta sleep that helps us to rejuvenate and go into a R.E.M sleep cycle. As for the day time, we want to stay in alpha. ​ What Energy Therapy can do is help to be the bridge between the stressful world to assisting clients to experience higher levels of wellbeing. Additionally, research has found that when a client is receiving energy healing that both the practitioner and the client go into an alpha state. The more we practice the alpha state then the more it becomes our daily norm. ​ 2. Physically- Healing Touch and Reiki cause deep relaxation in the mind and body. When your mind and body relax, it releases endorphins from your brain, which then helps your muscles to relax. When your muscles relax, then your circulation improves and the increase in blood flow elevates oxygen levels throughout your body. This creates nutrients to be absorbed more efficiently, supporting the regulation of your hormones, increasing enzyme levels to aid digestion, and contributing to the release of toxins from your body. Additionally, this allows healthy cells to regenerate and promoting a healthy immune system. ​ 3. Emotionally- Healing Touch & Reiki create deep healing, nurturing relaxation, and releasing which has been found to reduce or eliminate stress, depression, anxiety, fear, grief, worry, moodiness, inner mind chatter, mind fog, anger, discomfort, flight or fight symptoms, insomnia, sadness, pain, and much more. Healing Touch & Reiki has been found to replace these heavy emotions with inner peace, harmony, balance, calm, joy, lightness, a feeling that all is well in the world.

11. What to expect During a session for Energy Therapy?

​It is suggested for a client to wear something comfortable for the session. During the session, the client will be lying down on a treatment table fully clothed with an eye pillow and gentle music playing the background. As the practitioner, I will be placing my hands right above the body to facilitate clearing congested energy and breaking up any energetic blockages in the energy system, mind, heart, body, or biofield. The biofield is the human energy system that can be found surrounding the body. ​ Typically, clients experience a deep sense of relaxation and wellbeing during the session. Some clients fall asleep during the session and others find themselves in a meditative state. It's completely normal to experience sensations that can range from tingling, temperature changes, a sensation of sinking into the table or floating above it. Often times, the arms or legs will become slightly spastic as energy releases out of them. Other times, clients may not experience anything other than deep relaxation and inner peace. Whatever your response is to the energy therapy treatment you will always be receiving the benefits of it. ​ Energy can release in different ways for different people. Some clients can experience a release by crying, laughing, coughing, burping, feeling a strong emotion, or releasing emotions surrounding an experience from their past (etc.). Whatever may come up for you, I am there to support you as the release occurs, and I will also continue on with the treatment.

12. What to expect After an Energy Therapy treatment?

After the Energy Therapy Session, there can still be releasing taking place as well as an adjustment and integration period that can take 1-3 days or 5-7 days depending on how big the release was and what we are working on in the session. This why all clients are given a take-home document to know what to expect and support their self-care. It is encouraged for all clients to drink a lot of water to help with the detox; the removal of toxins and energy congestion. Water intake should be increased for the next couple of days (as long as there is no water restriction from your physician).

14. Is Healing Touch & Reiki similar to getting a message?

No, a massage focuses on manipulating and applying pressure to your muscles to create a relief. Energy Therapy is focused more on the health of your energy system and clearing energetic blockages with the practitioner's hands being used right above the body.

15. How often would I have to be seen?

It all depends on your goals and if you are seeing other professional to support your journey. In general, I would suggest: *If you are experiencing acute conditions, struggling emotionally or mentally, feeling depleted every day, in the middle of a transition, or working on a goal, then I would recommend once a week. *If you are working with another professional to support your goals then, depending on what type of service it is, I would recommend once every two weeks. *If this is for your self-care and wellbeing maintenance, then it is up to you how much support you need.

16. Should Energy Therapy be used to diagnose or cure me? Do you recommend that Healing Touch & Reiki be used in place of traditional medical care?

Absolutely not. Healing Touch & Reiki are designed to be integrated into your journey of healing, empowerment, and your goals related to your wellbeing. Although Healing Touch & Reiki have many benefits, it should not be used as a substitute for traditional medical care.

1. What is Biofield Tuning?

Biofield Tuning is considered an energy medicine, biofield therapy, and sound therapy. It is a sound therapy method developed by Eileen McKusick, an author, researcher and founder of The Biofield Tuning Institute. Biofield Tuning is a sound therapy method that is addressing the distorted noise or dissonance that can be found in the biofield (the human energy field that surrounds the body), the energy systems in the body as well as in the mind, heart, and body. The distorted sound, that can be heard when using Biofield Tuning Forks, is considered to be the congestive energy or energetic blockages; also called incoherent frequency or "dissonance" noise. ​ Biofield Tuning believes and has found that "all physical, mental, and emotional disorders can be perceived as "dissonance" in your energy field," which is what is creating the distorted noise when using Biofield Tuning Forks. "Biofield Tuning is able to diminish and resolve this dissonance and in doing so, alleviate and even eradicate the corresponding physical, mental and/or emotional symptoms." ​ In other words, the Tuning Fork that is used in the Biofield can only make one sound, like hitting a piano key, and ideally, the practitioner wants to hear a clear, bright sound (also called a coherent frequency). However, when the practitioner comes across congestive energy in the Biofield the sound from the Tuning Fork will change to distorted noise. What the client can experience during the session: *Can hear the distorted noise *Can sense the heaviness *May experience a strong emotion come to the surface (such as sadness or anger) *Holding their breath or shallow breathing *Tension in the body *Flashbacks to past memories
As the practitioner resolves the dissonance noise in the Biofield, both the practitioner and the client will hear the change in the Tuning Fork from distorted noise to a bright, clear sound. There will also be a shift in the client, where the heaviness they were experiencing will become lighter. There are many techniques and methods used in Biofield Tuning, but this is one of the most important ones. ​​ Additionally, the release of stagnant energy and resolving the dissonance noise in the Biofield has been found to create deep healing and relief from past traumatic or painful experiences as well as releasing our "emotional baggage" and breaking free from limiting thought processes. It also has been found to make improvements in our health as well as mental & emotional wellbeing. Overall, it can support breakthroughs to have higher levels of empowerment & reclaiming our power, deepening our capacity for self-love and breakthrough with old patterns in love, and expanding our consciousness to see what's infinitely possible in our lives and goals. We have found that these are some of the incredible results of Biofield Tuning!

2. What is a Tuning Fork or a Weighted Tuning Fork that is used in a Biofield Tuning session?

In a Biofield Tuning session, a practitioner will either be using a Tuning Fork or Weighted Tuning Fork (that come in different sizes) to address the stagnant energy or "dissonance" noise (which you can hear when using the Tuning Forks). ​ A Tuning Fork is a two-pronged steel device, which vibrates when struck and can only create one tone, similar to hitting a piano key. A Tuning Fork either makes a clear, bright tone (coherent frequency) or a distorted, muggy tone (dissonance in the noise or incoherent frequency). The distorted, muggy tone occurs when the practitioner comes across the congested energy in the biofield. A Tuning Fork can help resolve what is causing the dissonance in the noise, which then changes the noise back to a clear, bright tone. ​ A Weighted Tuning Fork is a non-audible tool used in sound therapy to break up congestive energy in the body and in the biofield. The Weighted Tuning Fork is the only tool that can be used on the body.

3. What is a Biofield Anatomy Map?

Biofield Tuning's founder, Eileen McKusick, has recorded over 20+ years of her Biofield observations and has found consistent patterns that correlate to certain energetic blockage or distorted noise, in the Biofield, to a specific age, type of memory, and the thought processes and emotions that show up in the Biofield due to those life experiences. In other words, Eileen discovered that certain thought processes, emotional wounds, heavy emotions (such as pain, fear, shame, etc.), and certain X factors that are affecting us from moving forward in our lives and accomplishing our goals are consistently showing up in the same place in the Biofield for different people. Additionally, your Biofield has been found to be about 5 to 6 feet around the body. When it comes to your life's timeline, what has been discovered is the outer edge of the Biofield represents being in the womb and as the practitioner works their way closer to the client (that is lying on the treatment table), we get closer to their current age and present time. ​ By using your Biofield as your life's timeline, similar to the rings found inside a redwood tree, we can pinpoint a certain age and possibly an experience that may have shaped your belief system or created emotional wounds that need to be resolved through sound therapy. ​ As the biofield dissonance subsides through the Biofield Tuning methods, clients generally report feeling "lighter" and a diminishment or resolution of their symptoms; a breakthrough has occurred!

4. Can you actually hear Congestive and Stagnant Energy or Energetic Blockages by using a Tuning Fork?

Yes, you can actually hear it! Most clients also feel a sensation of heaviness when the Tuning Fork is addressing congestive energy or a dissonance noise in the Biofield. Additionally, some clients express feeling a strong emotion coming up (such as sadness or anger) before it gets released through breaking up the congestive energy with the Tuning Fork.

5. Do I have to share my past experiences in order to receive the benefits of Biofield Tuning? When the past comes up, does it mean I have to relive it?

In an Evolve & Empower session, you are not obligated to share your past experiences to receive the benefits of Biofield Tuning. Although, there can be freedom and empowerment found in speaking your truth out loud. It can also support the breakthrough by releasing verbally and emotionally anything you have been holding in. ​ When the past comes up, it doesn't mean you have to relive it. If anything, it's more about revisiting a past experience to review it; to create awareness, to learn, and to focus on what can be gained from that experience that can support your greatest highest good now. It's about stepping into an observer's role; when reviewing and reflecting on past experiences. As your practitioner, I will also be there to support and guide you throughout the session. ​ You also have the choice to just focus on receiving the benefits of Biofield Tuning without getting into the details of your life's timeline and past experiences.

6. What does Evolve & Empower address when using Biofield Tuning?

Evolve & Empower's goal is to support our clients in breaking free from their past and breaking through any glass ceilings that may be preventing them from accomplishing their goals! ​ Evolve & Empower, uses Biofield Tuning for 4 Different Types of Services that Support Deep Healing & Breakthroughs with: *Having Higher Levels of Wellbeing & Expanding Your Consciousness *Deepening Your Capacity for Self-Love & Breakthroughs with Old Patterns in Love *Reclaiming Your Power & Breakthroughs with Your Empowerment *Releasing Anything You have Been Holding In & Breakthroughs with Anything Weighing *You Down or Holding you Back in Your Life

7. How should I prepare for the session?

I like to encourage my clients to come to your session well-hydrated because water has sound-conductive properties. Also, come in comfortable clothes.

8. What to expect During a Biofield Tuning Session?

​The session will begin with the client lying down fully clothed on the treatment table. The practitioner will help prepare the client for the session by grounding & centering them, breaking up congested energy that can be found in the minor chakras & joints, and opening up the flow in their energy system. Depending on what we are addressing in the session will determine what part of the biofield I will be focusing on as your practitioner. The main focus in the session is working on certain areas of the Biofield that address the client's goal and what will serve their greatest and highest good. Typically, the practitioner will always begin by starting on the outside of the biofield and working inward towards the client. The practitioner is listening for any distorted tones that the Tuning Fork is making that indicates the congested energy within the biofield. To resolve any distorted noise in the Biofield, the practitioner will continue to strike the Tuning Fork until you can hear that bright, clear, consistent tone. When the practitioner comes across the distorted energy, the client can experience a variety of different things. What clients have expressed experiencing is a feeling of heaviness, tension in their body, holding in their breath, a mixture of intense emotions, and it can even bring up memories. Whatever may come up for you, I am there to support you as the release occurs, and I will also continue on with the treatment. Each session has an impact on you, even if you don’t have any of these experiences listed above. ​ Additionally, throughout the session, you will be playing an active role by participating in breath work & body scan, affirmations to help shift your mindset, and other holistic tools when needed to support your deep healing, releasing, and successful breakthroughs.

9. What happens After the treatment?

After the Sound Therapy Session, there can still be releasing taking place as well as an adjustment and integration period that can take 1-3 days or 5-7 days depending on how big the release was and what we are working on in the session. This is why all of my clients are given a take-home document to know what to expect and how to support their self-care. Most people who receive Biofield Tuning sessions report feeling clearer, calmer, more relaxed, and more self-aware. However, everyone is different and every person has a unique experience. Some clients also have reported in their detox: *Profound exhaustion and tiredness, needing to sleep or lay low for a day or more: generally, happens with people who have been ‘running on empty’ or experiencing restless sleep or insomnia *Or the opposite, an increase in their energy level and feeling hyper *Extreme emotions, or being very aware of formerly masked or buried emotions- such as crying or feeling very angry (etc.) *Headaches and/or dizziness *Muscle soreness or aches *Symptoms similar to the flu Generally, these symptoms of detox will pass within 1-4 days, but if a condition persists, it is important that you make an appointment with your Biofield Tuning Practitioner. Sometimes people can get ‘stuck’ in the unwinding process and need an additional boost to complete the adjustments. ​ It is encouraged for all clients to drink a lot of water to help with the detox; the removal of toxins and energy congestion. Water intake should be increased for the next couple of days (as long as there is no water restriction from your physician). ​ Additionally, to accelerate the detox process, I would recommend for my clients to soak either their feet or ideally take a bath in Epsom Salts for 20 minutes (if there are no health restrictions on using Epsom Salts). You don't want to take an Epsom Salt bath longer than 20 minutes because it has been found that your body will re-absorb the toxins that were released.

10. Is there anyone who shouldn't receive Biofield Tuning?

Although Biofield Tuning is a non-invasive holistic modality, here is a list of specific situations or conditions that Biofield Tuning should not be used in conjunction with: Cancer: *Detox pathways are often too compromised and the body doesn’t have the resources to manage the process *Detox can be severe *Tumors seem to be irritated by tuning Terminal illness: *Body systems are compromised and do not have the capacity to digest energy *Detox can be severe End-of-life: *Tuning forks are too strong for the system *Detox can be severe Pregnancy: *Could potentially send a client into detox *Risk for miscarriage Pacemaker or other implanted medical devices: *Tuning forks could interfere with these devices Recent concussions: *The brain is swollen and takes a while for inflammation to resolve *Wait at least 3 months before doing a tuning on the head, 6 months is even better Morbid obesity: *Not necessarily contraindicated, but can create profound detox *Suppressed emotions held in fat cells

11. How many sessions will I need?

We ask all clients to commitment to segments of 3 sessions of Biofield Tuning before reevaluating the next step. This is not a financial commitment, but it is in our client’s best interest to commit to a total of 3 sessions when working through any goal or detox that may come up during our session and in-between sessions. Clients typically sign up for one session every week or every two weeks. It is recommended to come in as soon as you can if you find yourself stuck in any of the detoxes to help relieve the symptoms. This is one of the main reasons why we ask for clients to commit to segments of 3 sessions of Biofield Tuning to help clear and break free of anything we are working on in the session. However, clients are asked to wait at least 4 days before their next appointment because a lot of times the detox will clear up on it's own.

12. Do you recommend that Biofield Tuning be used in place of traditional medical care?

Absolutely not. Biofield Tuning is designed to be integrated into your journey of healing, empowerment, and your goals related to your wellbeing. Although Biofield Tuning has many benefits, it should not be used as a substitute for traditional medical care.

1. Are my inquiries and my sessions with Evolve & Empower confidential?

Absolutely, all inquiries and everything discussed in E&E is kept strictly confidential.

2. What if I don't know what type of service will best support me?

No problem, we can arrange a 20-minute complimentary phone call prior to the in-person consultation & your first session for me to learn more about you and your goals. It will also give me a chance to expand on my services to see what will best support you.

3. How many sessions will I need and how often do I need them?

It all depends on your goals, the type of service you are receiving from Evolve & Empower, and if you are seeing other professionals to help support your goals. In general, when a client is working towards a goal, I would encourage them to see me once a week or once every 2 weeks. If we go longer than two weeks it can be counterproductive because we will be playing catch up and not always having enough time to focus on the steps to move forward.
