Antoinette has been an inspiring and enlightening presence in my life. I have experiences with her as a massage therapist, shamanic healer, shamanic journeying teacher, reiki practitionerfriend and drum circle/journey leader. I cannot begin to express how she has contributed to my physical and spiritual health,, learning, awareness and growth. As she and I discussed recently, I trust her with my soul. In love and light, Marj

Recently had a lomi lomi style massage with Antoinette and wow was it relaxing. She had an amazing quality to her touch that had me feeling like she was working on my entire body at the same time. That left me feeling quite integrated and deeply calm. Highly recommend!

It is with great joy and also an honor to write this review. An honor? Yes! Antoinette is a wonderful person. Her smile immediately makes me feel welcomed and at ease. She comes from a family and extended family of rich cultural traditions. I always feel at home whether it's in person or online. Antoinette brings to her many Healing Practices a wealth of life experiences: Daughter; Spouse; Mother; Friend; Confidant; and a Loving Heart. I soon recognized that she understands where folks are coming from and the challenges they face. The service I utilize most is her Shamanic Healing Practice. Antoinette's innate ability to deeply connect with her Helping Spirits has afforded me such a deep sense of feeling grounded, as well as feeling deeply healed to face and overcome my own challenges. I trust Antoinette when it comes to healing for my Soul. That's why I continue to frequent her Shamanic Healing Practice. I have also participated in her mask making. With zero experience at mask making, Antoinette addressed my fears and made me feel at ease. It was fun, creative and a powerful experience for me. I carry within my heart great gratitude to the Universe for having connected me with Antoinette.

Shamanic Healing Session

How do I know I may need a healing? An indicator that a healing is in order could be for many reasons. Here are a few common ones. Feeling of fatigue but the doctor says there is nothing wrong. Cancer patients often seek shamanic healing to enhance western medicine. Often times we may feel like we aren't all there. But you can't put your finger on it. Recurring" bad luck". These are just a few examples of how a person may feel and want to seek out spiritual help. Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice known to man, dating back at least 30,000 years. It is not a religion. It is a way of connecting to nature and the Divine. The practitioner enters an altered state through the practice of journeying. It is a practice used to help heal the soul and get spiritual guidance through divination. This practice is based on personal experience, this is what separates shamanism from a religious or faith based practice. There is no time or space in the Shamanic Journey. This practice can be done in person or distance. Shamanic healings are a way of tending to the spiritual immune system. What manifests in ordinary reality usually has a non-ordinary reality aspect to it. Some of the healing modalities one may experience during a healing are: Soul Retrieval Power Animal Retrieval Shamanic Divination Extraction Healing Song Doctoring Psychopomp - Healing and transformation for crossing over. End of Life Support Space clearing Shamanic Healing can be done in person and remotely. 90 min is an approximation. Every session is different.

Shamanic Counseling

Shamanic Journey Lessons Whats the point in learning how do do this? I'm not going to be a healer. Many of my clients decide to learn to journey because they want more. They want spiritual autonomy. They want the ability to access the wisdom that is our birth right. In Shamanic Counseling there is no hierarchy. The client doesn't need a guru, priest or Rabi to access spiritual help. It is our birthright and we can all access this compassionate wisdom if we know how. In keeping with classic Shamanism, where shamanic practitioners gain direct access to wisdom and help through journeys into non ordinary reality. Shamanic counseling makes it readily possible for the contemporary person to get the wisest possible advise for their personal questions and problems. This is a system for personal empowerment. In this process the counselor guides the individual student in divination journeying so that they can access non ordinary sources of guidance and information which typically provide wise, compassionate, ethical, harmonious and practical solutions for clients' concerns. Because the experiential nature of the practice involves the whole person and extensively utilizes the power of one's visionary and analytical abilities, Shamanic Counseling has been found to be remarkably effective as a transformative method helping people in their lives. This offering is done in a 5 session series. For a series of 5 sessions the fee is $900.

About me

I am a Shamanic Practitioner, Foundation for Shamanic Studies Faculty Member, Licensed Massage Therapist, Reiki Master and Artist.

Creativity plays a primary role in my life. Being a former professional figure skater, Egyptian dancer and artist. Part of that creativity is spent communing with the sea while surfing. Knowing that everything is alive and is sacred and with the intention of honoring what is.

I started my healing journey as a child who was aware of the unseen. This was a difficult journey as a child growing up in a Sicilian Catholic family. I often refer to myself as a recovering catholic. However, because of this, I have been given the gift of discipline and I use this discipline in my shamanic practice. I began to share my gifts professionally in 2004 as a Massage Therapist and Reiki Master. In 2008 I founded Bella Luce Healing Center which has been a healing hub for practitioners to practice a variety of modalities. In 2014 I started offering Shamanic Services Professionally. This has become my primary focus.

My formal training in Shamanism is from the Foundation for Shamanic Studies where I am also a member of the faculty.
With Core Shamanism as the basis of my practice I offer spiritually based healings such as Soul Retrieval, Extraction Healing and divinatory readings. I am also available for End of Life Spiritual Healing called Psycho Pomp.
I offer Shamanic Counseling and Workshops through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies.

My Inspiration

Inspiration comes in many ways. Through crisis, joys, struggles and triumphs. I believe that I was chosen by the spirits to do this work. Knowing that all is sacred. We all have the ability to live in unity and harmony. That is our choice to make. Once we make that choice, they choose us to do this sacred work.

Antoinette is an amazing practitioner and friend. She has inspired me in so many ways. She has led me into a world of healing with her massage work, her reiki touch, and shamanic practice. Our full moon and equinox drum circles have been so meaningful and are joyful fun. Her mask making workshops are enlightening. I can’t say enough about her patient, kind, loving spirit. 💕💕💕
