TESTIMONIALS
“I have been working with Diana for years with all she does and offers. I have made such huge strides in my health: back pain gone, energy much better, stomach issues and joint pain gone, and with the help of her newest capabilities as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner I am sleeping so much better, rashes I have been trying to figure out are gone, and for the first time in my life I know what it feels like not to be craving foods but rather I feel nourished! I have lost 13 pounds and I truly have tried everything in the past with no permanent success like this, I can not speak highly enough of all she does and I feel so much more in control of my health and understand all that I am accomplishing and why.”
~ Cindy B.
“I love to exercise and have tried numerous diet things through the years. I have had a hard time figuring many things out as to why I could not lose weight, felt fatigued, and hurt even when I was trying to stretch and release muscle tension. Diana has helped me get rid of so much pain and I have sent many of my friends to see her with the same benefits. Now, with the her help, I have gotten to the root of many things and am seeing profound results. I have lost 29 pounds, am sleeping double the deep sleep time, and I do not feel hungry often at all. I know when I need to eat, but I do not feel “starving” and have no desires for junk things that I once did. I am so excited to be getting to the answers and, with her help, I can work on all the angles I need: body alignment, stress management, nutrition, and understanding why I am doing all I am.”

SomaEnergetics Phase I Practitioner Course
with Diana Spiess, CVSMT, Licensed Sound Therapist
When:
February 15-16
Times:
Saturday 11-7 (1 hr lunch),
Sunday 11:30-4:30
About the Course:
Sound/Vibrational Therapy is an incredible way to assist the health and well-being of anyone! Diana is now certified to offer Phase I for SomaEnergetics as a practitioner course and is excited to teach anyone interested in learning how to use these amazing frequencies! From the SomaEnergetics site:
The Energy Vitality Technique taught in the Phase 1 course is the basis for all the other techniques taught in subsequent courses. Only by activating the energy the client is not using, connecting them to 5th dimensional energy, and then safely distributing that energy throughout the energy centers can we then do additional work with the open system we just created.
Activating unused energy and reminding them of their connection to the universal source is one of the greatest gifts you can give someone. When we have extra energy beyond survival, then we can manifest, heal, attract wonderful co-creative partnerships and friendships. That is the genius of the Energy Vitality Technique - giving the gift of the ability to manifest your hearts desire!
As with all our workshops, this is a work in progress. Most disciplines are ever evolving as new information becomes available or new techniques are discovered. It is our desire to become a contributor to the new field of sound therapy and energy medicine that is fusing spirituality and science.
As we learn and work with clients, we must always return to the foundation of our work as Spiritual Healers. With intention, the Divine works through us to assist the client to return to homeostasis or balance allowing the body to make the corrections necessary to heal itself. We do not heal anyone. All or our techniques are designed around this principle of Divine Healing through intention to bring balance. The tuning forks are a tool used to direct this divine healing energy.
|
|
The Energy Vitality Technique offers the following:
- Reconnect with your inner energy potential using the ancient Solfeggio frequencies to balance and impart harmony in your life.
- Sound is a way to free blocked energy, thereby creating openings in which novel choices are awakened and new-found energy becomes available for personal transformation, health and healing.
- These protocols may be used immediately after training for both personal and client-centered application.

Making Space For Joy
The feedback I have received so far from my first podcast episode has been inspiring and so humbling!
I am so happy to hear how many of you have already begun to open to the concept of creating more space in your life for what pure joy is. I have so many wonderful things to share form all the aspects of what I teach and use and, as the series continues, I am excited to explore all with you to help you all create ways to bring joy into all aspects of your journey. Yes, even in times when we are feeling a sense of struggle and overwhelm, we can find joy.
“You’ll have bad times, but it’ll always wake you up to the good stuff you weren’t paying attention to.” ~ Robin Williams in
Good Will Hunting
This is the essence of
Dharana
or concentration.
The gift of remaining present is so abundant and priceless. It allows us to remain open. We associate this with, “keep your eyes open.” But, all too often, we forget the power of the eyes and how when they are open they let light in. They are the windows to our soul…our full, deepest, purest essence. Remaining open and allowing ourselves to expand to be more spacious leaves the things that appear large to become so small…the needle in the hay stack.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~ Marianne Williamson
So for this month and beyond, I encourage you to consider expanding, opening, let the light in and shine through you! As this begins and continues, our vibration only rises and joy comes naturally. It is our design to be joyful…our being is in search the frequency that started all of creation… pure joy.
I hope you will join me in my podcast series and at essence on your journey to create more space for a life filled with joy.
Namaste 🙏🏻,
Diana Spiess
