ENCHANTED SANCTUARY
Jodie Birco Baker
I am an author, jewellery designer, artist and light teacher. I received my academic education at the University of Toronto in European Studies, History and Political Science, BA (Hons), a post-graduate diploma from Humber College in International Development, then a Master's Degree from the University of Waterloo in Development Practice with a Specialization in Natural Resource Management (MDP).
Since childhood I have experienced expanded states of consciousness, am a life-long meditator and worked with energy and reiki for over 20 years. Most of those years were spent using these modalities for my own expansion and evolution, and for close family, friends, animal companions and clients. For the past 7 years I have been teaching and certifying students in my own modality, hosting myriad energy and meditation classes and workshops, and seeing clients 1-on-1 for energy sessions. Most recently I have been combining art and meditation for comprehensive art and wellness workshops.
ENERGETIC MEDITATION
I teach and use a type of energy-based meditation that uses deep relaxation, memory and feeling-states within the body to support your remembrance of your true nature and inner essence.
RITUAL OF RETURN
Mindfulness, Breathwork and Energetic Meditation for self-relaxation and self-expansion.
Return to your sense of ease, openness and deep relaxation from within. We will use various somatic techniques and inner imagining to relax, ground, then expand our physical and energetic bodies. In this way we can begin to engage with our own innate sense of rest and release, bypassing the mind, and entering expanded states of concsiousness.
This step-by-step process allows you to enter into a different relationship with your own body and energy, in that you begin to notice the places of resistance within you, while at the same time learning and practicing how to expand beyond them. You will gain a new sense of perspective, and tools, to enter into an innate part of yourself; a well from which you may draw from to fuel your life, your dreams and your own unique beingness.
