The Healing Touch, Reiki and Clarity Breathwork Practice of Jeri Lawson
I haven’t shared a music recommendation in a long time.
Here is one of my favorites. Duduk music. It is the most soulful and emotionally evocative music I have found.

Joanne Avison’s YouTube channel is a wealth of information. I highly recommend setting aside forty minutes to check out this video. I am learning so much from her “fascia-focused conversations.”
She writes about the video above:
You’ll learn how chronic tension, anxiety, and emotional holding patterns can physically embed themselves in your tissues — and how micro-movements, breath, and subtle awareness can begin to unravel them.
She describes how to heal burnout, brain fog, a tight jaw, and irritability. She explains how stress can feel like a buzzing sensation. The body is truly amazing.

Yes, folks, Season Two has landed. I promise only to write one post about it. It’s easy to get inspired by these episodes.
I cannot say enough about how excited I was when I found Season One. When people talk about humanity rising to “higher levels of human consciousness,” podcasts like this are markers of this cultural shift.
Released in late 2024, The Telepathy Tapes briefly unseated The Joe Rogan Experience as the #1 podcast in the United States and the United Kingdom. I will admit, I had a twinge of satisfaction (and hope) from this.
The Telepathy Tapes focuses on non-speaking individuals with autism who claim to have telepathic or precognitive abilities. I highly recommend starting with Season One and listening to the Episodes (before the Talk Tracks) in chronological order.
The episode I linked above will be especially interesting for anyone interested in the creative process. ENJOY!!!!!!

On Saturday, November 1st, 2025, our in-person Healing Touch meeting will begin with a potluck at 12:30, and our speaker will start at 1 pm. It will be wonderful to get together, see old friends, and make new ones. At the Hillcrest Congregational Church, 404 Gregory Lane, Pleasant Hill, 94523.
Everyone is invited who is interested – and this promises to be an interesting event!
We have a fascinating and gifted speaker, Cinthia Varkevisser, Licensed Realtor and House Healer. https://www.cinthiavarkevisser.com/ She will speak on the practical art of space clearing. Cinthia writes,
“Every home tells a story—make sure yours fuels your spirit instead of dragging you down. When you catch the energy quirks and flip them fast, your space starts working for you instead of against you. Sometimes it’s not the house at all, but leftover energy squatting where it doesn’t belong. Clearing out the heavy vibes, old baggage, and random hangers-on transforms your home into a space that feels lighter, brighter, and unapologetically yours.”
She will also share her personal healing journey of becoming a channel and intuitive reader, as well as the services she offers in her healing business. She offers personalized readings designed to provide profound insights and guidance. With a mystical blend of intuition, channeled source, and ancestral connections, she helps you align with your inner guidance and highest wisdom.

Jane Goodall gave an interview that was set to air after her death. It is incredible, and I highly recommend watching it on Netflix.
“I want to make sure that you all understand that each and every one of you has a role to play. You may not know it, you may not find it, but your life matters and you are here for a reason.”
Thank you, Jane.

Learning to perceive energy in a healing session has often been — and still is — a surprising and mysterious process.
The Healing Touch Professional Association offers Virtual Chapter videos for members on a wide range of healing topics. In one of these videos — I can’t remember exactly which one — an experienced and successful healer shared a simple technique she uses to keep her mind from wandering during sessions.
On the surface, keeping your mind focused during a healing seems logical. Yet my inner experience often unfolds very differently. My thoughts tend to act like a mirror, reflecting the emotional energy of my client’s inner world.
One session in particular stands out. A young mother came in, mentioning during check-in that her daughter had broken her wrist the day before. It sounded like a straightforward situation — a typical childhood accident.
But as soon as I placed my hands on her, a wave of violent imagery surfaced in my mind — flashes of car crashes, murders, and death scenes from police shows I had watched more than a decade ago. The intensity shocked me, and my first reaction was judgment: “Wow, this is not appropriate for a healing space.”
Over the years, though, I’ve learned to trust the process. My greatest strength as a practitioner is knowing that whatever arises in a session — whether calm or chaotic — has a purpose in the healing space. So I stayed with it. About ten minutes later, the violent images dissolved, and what emerged was a deep sadness. I could feel it release.
When the session ended, my client opened her eyes and said, almost in surprise, “I had no idea I was that traumatized. I feel so much better.”
The emotional intensity had belonged to her, but the specific imagery came from my own life experience. I wasn’t reading her thoughts — rather, I was sensing the quality of them. This reflection helps me hold space more fully and meet my clients exactly where they are.

Last week, I had the honor of co-facilitating a five-day Breath Retreat with Neika Embry Whittemore at Little Yosemite Lodge. This stunning location—the same place I’ve visited many times over the years for quiet meditation—feels like sacred ground.
This retreat was such a precious gift. Dedicated time and space for everyone to receive, process, and truly embody all that unfolded during the four breath sessions.
Everything felt absolutely perfect, even the imperfections—because they were a part of the beautiful, authentic journey. 🙂 Every soul present was exactly where they needed to be, each one of us a vital part of this extraordinary process.
It was a heartwarming reminder that when we come together in trust and openness, magic happens.
Although I will not be facilitating any retreats in the near future, there are other Breathwork (Breathfun) retreats at Little Yosemite Lodge. In October, Kristen Maurice will be leading one with Neika, and I tell you, I would love to be there!
