Jivana Kennedy

Hi~ My name is JIVANA, and ever since childhood I have had a mystical curiosity about life, and about life-force energy and our vast untapped human potential..

My search has guided me on an unconventional adventure and landed me smack in the midst of some of the most inspiring and best-known teachers in the world, in the areas of healing, consciousness development and tantra.

Among the most well known that I have studied with and been blessed to have learned from... 'Up Close & Personal', ...are Dr. Deepak Chopra, Osho, Ken Keyes, Jr., Eckhart Tolle, Marianne Williamson, Byron Katie. Carolyn Myss, Andrew Harvey, Gregg Braden...and many, many others.

You could say, I've been on a quest, learning and teaching about our vast untapped human potential for HLW, High Level Wellness, inspiring unlimited youthfulness, unraveling the blocks and limitations that keep us stuck in repetitive patterns in all areas of life, health and intimacy.

I feel that we are living in a rare time in humanity's evolution, where we can activate and accelerate our greatest capacities for health and happiness.

Like so many of us, I was raised in a pretty dysfunctional family system. My mom was a widowed, hard-working mother of two, and the stress of her own situation caused her to be depressed and unhappy to the point where she had to have electric shock treatments to manage her symptoms.

This cast a shadow over my childhood, and I knew from a tender age that I did not want to carry that legacy of physical and emotional pain, forward. I sensed that there had to be more to life than hardship and struggle.

So, when I was presented with the opportunity to study 'The Science of Happiness' with Ken Keyes, Jr. I immersed myself for many years in his 'Living Love Methods' as explained in the consciousness classic 'The Handbook to Higher Consciousness'.

Then, at his American ashram I was introduced to the teachings of the Indian mystic and tantric master Osho, which deepened my understanding of how our mind (consciousness) affects our body, and ways to make deep and lasting changes in both mind and body.

And beyond that, in the Osho Buddhafield, I was exposed to a depth of understanding about our precious and sacred human sexuality, on both a practical level and a spiritual level.

Eventually, it became my passion to help to create 'A Culture of Conscious Intimacy' wherein individuals and couples could design relationships geared towards their deepest healing, happiness, and human potential.

I believe that human love is the most powerful force for good in the world.

Before I have my first session with a client, we're already comfortable with one another's voice by virtue of a phone connection, or two making sure that my work is a good fit for my potential client.

My introductory sessions are typically either 90 minutes or two hours in length, allowing enough time to settle in, get to know one another and what the issues and desired outcomes are. And not feel at all rushed in doing so..

People comment that they feel very safe and at home in my presence. I will often hear "I've told you things I haven't ever told anyone before". Or "I've told you things I haven't even ever put words to before".

I think people sense that I hold a very wide, non-judgmental space within which they can let their guard down and have a good grasp of how they can make the changes they've been wanting to make for a long time.
