Individual Energy Work, Health & Energy Coaching, or Private Yoga / Qigong
In addition to Circle of Life™ individual health coaching, I offer a variety of modalities that help repattern subconscious and conscious limiting beliefs, judgments, stress and anxiety, and physical ailments. Increase your flow of Qi, balance, recharge, and revitalize your field, clear blockages and old beliefs, and support healing your body, mind, and spirit.
Energy work can help release and resolve blocks at the core level, history level, genetic level, and soul level. We work together and you can choose where you would like to begin. I am a practitioner of ThetaHealing®, LifeForce Energy Healing®, Holistic EFT, the Emotion Code®, and use a wide array of sound healing (mantra, seed sounds, gong, tuning forks, singing bowl, drum, rattle).
The different energy healing modalities are offered to meet you where you are and help take you to the next level of health, healing, consciousness, or whatever you are looking to manifest.
“Without reservation, I would recommend Susan for her support as a Health and Wellness coach, her Circle of Life classes, EFT training, and energy work. My experience of Susan is she is kind and caring, insightful and sensitive, supportive and willing to motivate to keep things moving. Susan walks her talk, and is truly an inspiration and role model for excellent self care, including stress mastery, nutrition, exercise. Susan has a way about her and seems to sense what is called for in any given moment or session. If you are healing or want to transform your life, do yourself a favor and receive what Susan has to offer.”

Qigong
Qigong (pronounced “chi-gong”) is a form of mind/body exercise and meditation using slow, precise body movements with regulated breathing and mental focus to improve balance, flexibility, muscle strength, and overall health. These exercises can be done sitting, standing, or even lying down — it’s your choice! Each class combines movement, meditation, breath, and self-massage to cultivate energy for the “three treasures” — body, heart/mind, and spirit. This class is for anyone who wants to be in community and cultivate greater wellbeing, healing, and inner resilience.
Susan has trained with Dr. Roger Jahnke O.M.D., founder of IIQTC (Integral Institute of Qigong & Tai Chi).
Yin Yoga
Yin yoga involves stillness, receiving, and being. This class is for all levels. Postures are all taken either seated or lying on the floor, held for 3–5 minutes with or without props, with a focus on toning the vagus nerve and applying mindfulness throughout. After the Thursday Yin practice there is a 20-minute yoga nidra practice on new & full moon weeks (approximately twice a month). Drop in or use your Dayaalu punchcard.
Hatha Flow Yoga
In this class you get to tap into your intuitive flow of asana! Often we might go to yoga classes and do the poses, but are they the right poses at the right time? In this class you can hone the inner wisdom of what is right for you in your yoga practice. Classes always include balance poses and core activation. New to yoga, or haven’t done yoga for a while? All are welcome. You will be guided into an enjoyable flow of movement that is right for your body regardless of where you are at. Modifications given for all levels. Drop in or use your Dayaalu punchcard.
“Being introduced to ThetaHealing® with Susan is like unlocking the long sought after tools to heal, grow, evolve and love that you have always had. Simple yet profoundly powerful — the depth and ease with which the theta healing works is unlike anything I have experienced.”

Tap Into Optimal Wellness: EFT & Muscle Testing
Learn for the first time OR take a deeper dive into meridian-based tapping! Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a self-applied sequential tapping process to acupressure points which can help reprogram the subconscious and dissolve stress and limiting beliefs, negative emotions, disturbing memories, pain, phobias, motion sickness, anxiety, depression, procrastination, and physical ailments. It can also be used as a self-enhancement practice to aid in relaxation, healing, positive thoughts and wellbeing.
In this workshop you get to create your own personal style of tapping that cultivates clarity, energy, joy, and peace. A portion covers muscle testing (applied kinesiology). EFT is a transformative practice at your fingertips which you can “pay forward” by teaching it to friends, loved ones, clients — anyone who is open to learning it!
