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, reflecting the relationship one has with
The *Earth and Her elements:
Air * Fire * Water *
It is a deep and sacred connection that all living things share with each other and Mother Earth.
In the common tongue, Tenalach/Tenlach was the Old Irish word for hearth/fireplace.
It also refers to the household - those who share the hearth/fireplace.
I am honoured and grateful to welcome you into this sacred and informative space.
My prayer is that you find what you seek...and what is seeking you, finds you.
Love Light and Shadow.

How I got here ~Childhood experience, brought me into a trauma response of years of self harm. My own healing journey brought me into the realization that the Rhythms of Nature & The Earth offer us guidance, insight and possibilities for our human experience. After years of experience, study and continued integration, I heard a call from my ancestors to ignite this space:
Shaenalach Healing & Retreats: A place to Listen, Learn and Heal. I answered that call with a trepidations, AND resounding YES! I live on the edge of The Wild in British Columbia, CaNaDa. 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 found in creating and holding healing space, while 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 an active part the healing journey...The Journey back to your-Self. |

"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. "
