If you are looking for skilled compassionate guides into the healing adventure of breathwork,…read moreKristi and Blake Allen offer an incredible opportunity for personal change. I had tried different kinds of breathwork over the years but never stayed with it till I started doing Transformational Breath with the Allens. When it comes to my integrating this work in a consistent way, their skillful coaching, guidance, and abundant warmth have made all the difference. Intuitive and technically proficient, Blake and Kristi's co-facilitation of Transformational Breath is helping to gradually reshape my life from the ground up, where mind and body both begin: in the rhythm and shape of the breath. You can easily apply what you learn from them in your own independent breathing practice, which they are great at encouraging. In addition, their Be Free Center, where I attended a weekend intensive, is permeated with beauty. The colors and materials of the architecture, the view of the water, the design and light of its many spaces, enhanced my capacity for being physically present and fully in my senses, a perfect complement to Transformational Breath itself. The Be Free Center is a blend of "sanctuary" and "home" - a space for sacred work, fellowship, and even fun. Later I was particularly struck by how the aesthetic of the Be Free Center matches the kindness and graceful style with which Blake and Kristi serve the well-being of others.

Truly poor, lacking professionalism and basic communication skills. Jacquie is not at all…read moreforthcoming about the nature of her work or the time it will take for sessions. Most reputable practitioners will allow extra time for new clients and initial sessions, but not so here. She never even told me how much time she would devote to the issues in the first session. I contacted her to have a remote session for my pet, but never received any feedback after the session other than to state that she "didn't have enough time" and that I should book another session to continue!! This is a really shady way to operate. My pet never showed any relief for the pain she was experiencing, and Jacquie never contacted me as to what was even going on with her to cause the pain. When I reluctantly agreed to another session to take place a few days later, at the last minute Jacquie cancelled the appointment. I had originally intended to have a session for myself as well, but of course with this poor performance I'll never have anything to do with her again. Not only does she possess poor communication skills, I believe she's an outright liar, pretending that she's living in the area where you are but in fact knows nothing about it. Who does this? I'm surprised she's been able to dupe so many people, because from my experience her work is not at all real or valid.

The owner was beautiful and open -energy-wise. She answered questions I had about the significance of black crows, and a few other things. Super knowledgeable and happy to converse. She even provided her background and how her business got started. I perused around the countertop and up and down the shelves, taking everything in. I ended up buying two statues that really resonated with me, and she carefully wrapped them individually, while also packaging the other items I purchased. I signed up for a reading and an additional service that she recommended as an add-on. I will return today for my experience with another lady who I have yet to meet, and she will perform the reading for me. I'd characterize the place with many beautiful things to look at and a great sage collection, with the most potent smelling sage I've ever bought! Openness, good energy, reasons to return! Also it's nestled between three Mexican restaurants, a sushi place and other spots to walk into and look around. I had the sushi. It was soooooo delicious! Happy travels!

The breathing and meditation exercises we did before the photoshoot helped me to feel comfortable in front of a camera. Sterling helped me to feel comfortable in my own skin - which to me is priceless. As a light-skinned Pacific Islander, I often felt uncomfortable with my appearance... until I moved to the continental us for college. But even then while I felt adequately assimilated, my soul felt split. This experience has helped me to love myself wholly and fully, marrying my two selves that I had kept separate for too long. Never would I have thought that a photoshoot would allow me that. Sterling's talents are very special and unique. I am forever grateful that our paths crossed. To anyone thinking about an embodiment photoshoot, I say go for it. And if an embodiment photoshoot doesn't really sound like your thing, still consider it :) I thought the same, but I'm really glad that I did it. I've always wanted to be able to capture the moon's beauty as seen through my eyes... not easy. But Sterling seems to do just that in her photography. Capturing the pure beauty and magic of another!
