Welcome

Portrait Dr. Susan M. Gallant The theme that underlies my passion, experience, knowledge, and skills over the past 30 years is improving the health and well-being of individuals, groups, and organizations.  I support my clients to move toward greater self-awareness, empowerment, and healing, enabling them to create what they most long for.  When we live in ways that don't betray our true Self, the result is wholeness and integration.  From this comes more success and harmony in all aspects of life - work, family, relationships, community, and the environment.

Self-awareness is the ability to observe and identify one's own thoughts, feelings, beliefs, actions, reactions, and interactions in the present situation.  Greater self-awareness allows one to make more informed choices independent of external influences - that is, to live in your own truth.  The axiom, "Know Thyself," reminds us that when we become strangers to ourselves, we can no longer return to the springs of our own being for sustenance.  We have lost the capacity for self-renewal.

Empowerment is having the capacity to create what matters most.  It is to be seated within the center of one's being and allowing the divine spark of life within to flow.  The process involves discovering one's personal purpose then clarifying and choosing a vision that makes that purpose tangible. It involves planning, then acting with a bias for the truth. Empowerment requires practicing self-awareness in order to acknowledge the inner obstacles to our own power, and healing the blocks.

Healing is an active and internal process that includes exploring one's attitudes, feelings, and beliefs with a desire to release all negative energy patterns.  It requires having the will to use one's energy to create love, self-esteem, and health.  It is simple but not easy.  Healing results when there is harmony, balance, and flow within and without. Through healing we become empowered to create our heart's longing. 

I would be honored to walk beside you in love and light to support you on your journey to greater self-awareness, empowerment, and healing.

Be well. Be in peace.

Energy

What does it mean to “work with energy” or to do “energy work?” Energy work is a general term for a variety of techniques that are based on the principle that universal energies surround us and that the human body consists of energy fields.  The idea is that the universal energies are available to us to initiate a subtle process of self-discovery and healing.  The intent is to enhance energy flow and balance in order to promote optimum physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellness. 

Working with energy means tapping into our innate wisdom, developing our intuition, and raising our vibration.  It means clearing negative energy and amplifying positive energy in order to feel more joy, passion, and aliveness.  This supports living in alignment with one's life purpose and being empowered to create what one most longs for.
