Our philosophy is based on a combination of many different paths, personal journeys, and combined experiences with the intention of personal, family, community, and global healing. We do not subscribe to religious doctrine and we support people of all faiths in their desire to heal; to be whole and balanced. We encourage the spiritual development of all people, so we may more effectively and lovingly live, create, and play together in harmony and peace. We support sustainable practices and local businesses. We are educators who continually advance our own knowledge and skills, surfing the range of teacher-student. We view the world as we want it to be, and we hold the highest space for humanity to align with our Highest Selves, Highest Potential, Highest Purpose.
Donation-based Personal Services
I AM HEALING shifted into providing personal healing services by donation in October 2011. The intention behind this practice is to remove all expectation from the therapist so that the clearest channel for healing is present during each treatment. We ask that donation be exchanged at the close of the session so that a fair and equal donation can be assessed by the client directly. We also understand in some cases the client is unable to offer an equal financial contribution and ask that they donate within their means, with the trust that others who can contribute above and beyond will balance our overall income. Donation-based can be viewed as sliding-scale, with the receiver deciding the payment based on their financial ability and the value of the healing they receive. If you would like to contribute financially to off-set the costs I AM HEALING incurs by providing services to the public on a donation basis, please donate directly to our paypal at paypal@iamhealing.us. We encourage those who are financially able and would like to support us in this way to simply book a session for your own healing treatment and contribute above and beyond what you would like to donate. Standard rates for massage in Santa Barbara County are $1-2 per minute]

The Four Agreements
We live by and encourage following these simple personal agreements:
1. Be Impeccable with your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the Word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your Word in the direction of truth and love.
2. Don’t Take Anything Personally: Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.
3. Don’t Make Assumptions: Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
4. Always Do Your Best: Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.
