My son called looking for help with opiate addiction. It was not court ordered. He underwent the assessment and intake, evaluation. Then the wait began. To this day no help has been offered . Even though my son calls dailey and sometimes twice aday. The receptionist laughed at my son when he called one day. I think putting someone off this long that wants help is wrong. ...read more

You may wonder aboutDNA Activationand what it is and what happens when you get your DNA activated. I liken it to a spiritual immune builder. We have 2 strands of DNA in our physical body and up to 144 strandsin our etheric body. I originally activated to 12 strands of DNA, but one day when I was in my office with a client, we simultaneously felt some energy coming down from the top of our heads. we looked at each other and said together, "We just got activated to 144 strands of DNA!" I was surprised and later calledDiane Stein, whom I had been working with after connecting with theLords of Karma. She checked in with her guides and said yes, that is correct. Now, I tend to be grounded, have my feet on the ground, have a degree in Counseling Psychology fromGonzaga Universityand a doctorate inClinical HypnotherapyfromAmerican Pacific University, but I cannot help it - when something spiritual happens, it happens and I follow my path and my guidance. Although many people will not believe something until it is proven with science, I am a big believer of personal experience as well. In fact, science, which I love is finally catching up with what we have known intuitively for many years. I find I am usually many years ahead, and hope that the understanding of the etheric field andDNA strandsbecoming activated will be main stream information in the next few years. At this time, it is important for me to assist others in becoming activated. Since my work with theLords of Karma,DNA Activationand theEssential Energy Balancingworkshops I have facilitated, my life has been incredible. I am able to manifest easily and it is much easier to move from negativity or fear into peace, love and forgiveness. The DNA Activation and Essential Energy Balancing Workshops are not magic, but they do clear the karma and bring more Light into your body so that you can do the daily work of changing behaviors, practicing love and kindness, and finding joy and peace. ...read more
