ABOUT ME
I graduated from the 2 year program of Shiatsu at The Shiatsu School of Canada in 1991, and had an extensive career in Shiatsu for 30 years. Working for some of the most exclusive hotels in Vancouver my career has included being a Shiatsu Therapist to some of the most famous people in the world, including royalty, dignitaries, rock stars, movie stars and elite athletes.
During this time I studied pranayama, Iyengar yoga, Siddha Yoga and various chanting and meditation techniques. However, it wasn't until I developed a serious autoimmune disease that I discovered the Energy Awareness Tools (in 2000) that I now teach.
After taking Class 1 with my former Teacher, my disease went into remission and I committed to working with these Tools. I studied 9 years with my former teacher, became a teacher under her umbrella (after graduating from her teacher training program in 2005) and opened Awaken Wellness, a meditation and massage studio, where I taught small groups weekly. In 2009 I left my former spiritual group to pursue teaching privately, to focus on my own curriculum, and inner work. Since 2012 I have taught one to one privately and have recently completed the first step in a series of books based on the curriculum I've been teaching for the past 15 years.
What I can tell you is that these tools are deceptively simple and incredibly potent at the same time. They have the ability to transform in ways that always surprise and astonish. I've experienced this myself; going from being so ill I couldn't work to being in remission in a matter of months. I also experienced life-changing effects in my personal life including a sense of well being. I now live with ease, joy and inner sense of contentment I never thought possible. Life is not perfect, yet I am capable of finding the balance regardless of the outer circumstance. Something I could never have dreamed of before. I've seen similar changes in my students.
I invite you to explore Finding Yes: The First Step. This self-guided course is a distillation of the class I've been teaching for years and includes multiple practice meditations. There is also
a private FaceBook group you can join, once you've purchased the course where you will meet others who have done or are in the process of doing the steps.
I look forward to working with you!
Blessings,
Kendall
