But these days, she is dealing “balance” from a very different perspective.

According to the astrological signs of the Chinese and Maya, I was born a healer. People born under these signs have  gifts. Mine is sensitivity to energy fields; I am an empathic and intuitive. I chose the path of natural healing (T.ND.)  My studies became a journey rather than a destination. As my interest in chronic conditions grew, I explored emotional healing and metaphysics (PhD).  Soon after, I began receiving invitations from elders of traditional cultures. They teach connection to the Earth and Oneness.

The insights from each of these philosophies blend to become a practice dedicated to achieving total well-being. My work with people is transpersonal, holistic and life enhancing. It offers them tools that encourage a proactive healing experience. As a holistic healer and student of subtle energy, it is my nature to watch for hidden components.  If the adage “ truth will set you free” is accurate, then it will also heal all manner of chronic conditions, including poverty and gender inhumanities. Every lesson, every person, every experience is a footstep in the journey. The wisdom gleaned becomes the gems I offer students, clients and readers.

As a young girl, I wanted my life to be extraordinary; not rock star status, but one that would leave a gentle footprint. That desire was my beacon as I raised three children to become upstanding adults, then worked with women inspiring them to find security within. Healing is an introduction of new information, and teaching proactive skills has allowed my people to find wellness and happiness.  Over the years, I have spoken to groups of more than a thousand people, and had the thrill of being a guest on numerous television programs and radio interviews. I have performed marriage ceremonies, given sermons, blessed houses and infants, and even delivered a baby. I have been planting seeds of change from Florida to Hawaii to Central America. All these were amazing experiences and, yet I am just beginning. I continue the journey today in Honduras with a Single Mothers Project.

Writing and speaking allow me to spread the message of healing through nutrition, kindness, and caring even further. When not consulting with clients over phone or internet, writing, or traveling to teach, I help where needed in my local Honduran community.

Hal Elrod has some serious bragging rights. He is the bestselling author The Miracle Morning and Talking LIfe Head On! national champion Sales Manager, record-breaking Sales Rep, ultra-marathon runner, grateful husband & proud father.

He has appeared on dozens of TV and radio shows across the country, and he’s been featured in numerous books, including The Education of Millionaires, the all-time bestselling Chicken Soup for the Soul series, Cutting Edge Sales, The 800-Pound Gorilla of Sales, Releasing the Chains, Living College Life In the Front Row, and The Author’s Guide To Building An Online Platform, to name a few.

And he managed to achieve all of these goals after being hit by a drug driver and told he would never walk again. But he does not really think of himself as being a role model or an inspiration. Rather, he maintains that simply was diligent in working to make the most of his talents and abilities, showing the determination that any of us can summon.
