Shaenalach
(traditionally spelt 
Tenalach, pronounced Shaenalach)
is one of 5 untranslatable words about nature.
It is a word used in the hills and mountains of west Ireland, and reflects the relationship one has with the earth elements:
air * fire * water * earth
 It is a deep and sacred connection that all living things share with each other and Mother Earth.

I am honoured and grateful to welcome you into this sacred and informative space.
My prayer is that you find what you seek.
Love Light and Shadow.

How I got here ~

My own healing journey has taught me that the natural rhythms of The Earth offers us insight and possibilities for our human experience. She is a source of healing, guidance and renewal and shows us our divine connection to the all Living things. Within this way of life I heard a call from my ancestors to ignite and hold this space 
 Shaenalach Healing -  

a place to Listen, Learn and Heal. 
I answered that call with a trepidations, yet resounding YES!
I live in the West Coast rainforest of 
British Columbia, Canada; the Indigenous Lands of The Katzi and Kwantlen Nations
and the Coast Salish Peoples.
I am an Elder, Mother, Wife, Sister, Daughter, Auntie, Friend who is 
learning to live with her willing and open heart. I walk the path of Earth Medicine,  working with the Compassionate Spirits who bring guidance and healing to myself, and those who sit with me. My passion  is in creating and holding healing space, by coming alongside those who are searching for their own answers, their own connection to Life, Love, The Great Mystery, and them-Selves.
​Please note:  My services are an enhancement for clinical/cognitive treatments in which the spiritual, as you know/discover it,  becomes a part the healing journey.

My Commitment

"I choose to walk alongside The Sacred, the Mystery, The Magic.
Answering The Call, I live and breathe in Holy Skin
Walking in Two Worlds
I claim mySelf as Sacred Space
and see you as the same.
I walk with my staff in one hand
and a lantern raised, in the other." -CBB
“All illnesses, whether physical, emotional, or psychological, stem from an illness of Spirit. It may be due to soul loss, psychic intrusions, ancestral karma, or any other spiritual causes that could be contributing to the manifest condition for which you seek help. Whatever other methodologies or remedies you pursue, whether allopathic, alternative, or a combination, let the healing of your spirit be your priority. Know that the deepest spiritual wound is the illusion of being separate from Source, God, Great Spirit, or whatever name you give the Creator.
It is the trick of the mind that creates this sense of separation. "
