I would like to share this marvelous testimonial from one of my yoga students. Marlane honors me, not only by being in my Monday Restorative Yoga with Healing Touch™ class at Downtown Desert Yoga, but she also brings in friends and family. To show my appreciation she received an individually designed treatment; a uniquely blended session of RN expertise, yoga therapy and Healing Touch™ in my peaceful treatment room. She left me these kind words that I want to share:
"As a part of my personal journey to increase self-awareness and self-healing, I participated in my first ever Healing Touch session today. Annie Muriel is amazing! I have been participating in a weekly restorative yoga class with Annie for the past couple of months. She includes a brief Healing Touch encounter for each attendee during every class, so I wasn’t really apprehensive about attending the full session, since I knew a smidgen of what it might include.
Initially, Annie offered me water to drink while she obtained a brief medical history. She also provided a succinct explanation of the Healing Touch process and how it can interface with western medicine (she is also a registered nurse). She was happy to answer my questions. I was asked to identify my personal goals expectations from the session.
I remained fully clothed throughout the session and was laying initially face-up and later face-down on a massage table. Oceanic sounds were playing in the background. The treatment part of the session lasted approximately 60 minutes.
The treatment began with an evaluation of my Chakras (starting at the feet and moving up). Annie recorded these pre-treatment observations.
During the treatment session, I felt a deep sense of relaxation with an awareness of Annie’s movements, consisting of a light physical touch and sweeping or swirling hand motions over parts of the body. My eyes were closed and at times I envisioned slowing changing colors.
At the culmination of the session, I felt a deepened spiritual connection. I felt supported and nurtured. I am aware that research shows that Healing Touch enhances the body’s healing process, so I’m interested to see if particular physical issues begin to improve as well.
When the treatment was completed, Annie shared her post-treatment observations and recorded them. She recommended a particular meditation technique I can use daily to address my flow of energy, along with a daily yoga position I could use to improve blood pressure.
I would highly recommend Annie Muriel’s Healing Touch! She is knowledgeable professional--informative, thorough and focused. But more important than that, Annie is sincerely caring. With her soft voice and radiant smile, it was like being touched by an angel."
