A Little About Me

Hi, my name is Dawna, and I am grateful that you stopped here to explore Soul Bloom Healing. Welcome.

I have spent my 50 years living and basking in the beauty of the West Coast of British Columbia, home to forests, oceans, lakes and mountains; we genuinely are gifted to have it all. It is through my relationship with the divine mother that I have found immense healing.

I was raised in a rigorous Christian religion. As early as I can remember, the God I believed in was a god to be feared, one who was out to punish rather than be a source of comfort you could draw close to when needed. After thirty-seven years of being indoctrinated by a false perception and belief of who and what God is, I finally broke.

When my daughter graduated and moved out, my life took a drastic turn. As it so happens in life, when the nest is empty, a flash of all that we have been holding on to of the past comes knocking on the door. The reality is that I heard that knock many times before, but I had chosen to ignore it. So life’s final attempt to get my attention turned into a banging on the door in the form of illness. At this point, I could no longer ignore what was happening to me. Barely able to get out of bed in the morning, I forced myself to confront the demons in my closet due to severe pain, suffering from intense nose bleeds and hair loss, to name just a few things. The next eight years of my life would turn into a quest of that which my soul longed for, healing and an authentic relationship with the divine.

It has been this search that led me to uncover shamanism. Through my teacher and mentor, Alberto Villoldo, his wife, Marcela Lobos, and the Four Winds Society, healing came through the practices of the medicine wheel. In each direction of the medicine wheel, I confronted that which had been holding me back from becoming who I truly am. I dropped the story I had been carrying in me for years of who I thought I was given my past experiences and chose instead to become the storyteller. I threw away the stories of being born of original sin and instead accepted that we are all born enough. From here, I was able to rebuild my life with a far more beautiful outlook on why I’m here and what my purpose is.

I have spent my working life being of service to others. It has always brought me immense pleasure knowing I am of help to those looking for it in one form or another. Soul Bloom Healing has become another form of that help and a calling I have answered to continue serving humanity as a Shaman Practitioner.

It is my deepest and most heartfelt desire to be of service to you. To help you unlock your fullest potential in life. You are here to create and re-create the highest version of who you want to be in every experience you have daily, and it starts with remembering who you truly are.

If, like me, you have suffered from years of feeling less than whole due to religious inadequacy, then I can truly empathize. Allow me the opportunity to help show you the light at the end of the tunnel. This is not a shaming of religious beliefs but a personal journey to transform the fear and reconnect with being whole again.

I look forward to joining you on your re-discovery of the self and the opportunity to be a sacred witness to the Soul Blooming.
