Lissa Elissabeth DeFreitas

I have often referred to my own healing journey, as a 'passage', one that takes 'the road less travelled' and embraces the inner alchelmy of welcoming All: the shadows, life-long self-limiting patterns, loss, unexpected illness and immense changes in the world.

Through out the repeated 'dark night of the soul' experiences, I became face-to-face with a kind of death that few words can describe. The dark night can take you to the depth of inner waters of discovery, where life returns in a magnificent Light of the Phoenix  -rising to heights never though imaginable; and cultivating a brand new landscape of Being.

It is through these journey's that I have come to cultivate many natural gifts of midwifery-of-the-living. 

As an Intuitive Sound Alchemist, Certified Integrative Energy Therapy Practitioner,  Veriditas-trained Labyrinth Facilitator and Intuitive Coach, It is my intention to hold a safe and sacred space in which to re-remember the on-purpose mission, gifts and shadows, you brought forth for your Highest Goodness & Highest Healing. 

These divine tools have led the way for my own healing journey, as they are tools for crafting an environment of calm, reflection, inner connection and profound peace.

I heard from Within, that the time is Now --to Be available to offer a Conpanioning Presence with others.

It is from my Divine Heart to Yours, .. the doors are Open to listen .. share..experience..explore and celebrate your unique and wondrous True Self.

An Overview of Integrated Energy Therapy (IET)

Integrated Energy Therapy (IET) is a complementary energy-healing approach intended to support emotional release, inner balance, and a greater sense of well-being. It is sometimes described as “getting the issues out of your tissues.”

The practice was developed by Stevan J. Thayer through the Center of Being, and it draws on spiritual concepts of angelic energy, the body's energy field, and the idea that emotional experiences can leave energetic imprints.

If you're exploring IET from a spiritual or healing perspective, one of its central themes is that we can gently release old emotional patterns and become more open to living from our authentic selves.

The core ideas behind IET

IET is based on several spiritual concepts:

Energetic imprints: The belief that difficult experiences, emotions, or stress can leave patterns in a person's energy field.

Gentle release: Rather than relying primarily on talking through painful experiences, IET uses light touch and practitioner intention to facilitate a sense of emotional letting go.

Angelic energy: IET incorporates a spiritual framework involving  healing angels, each associated with particular areas of emotional or energetic healing.

Integration: The goal is to feel more balanced, connected with oneself, and able to move forward with greater ease.

Session commonly last for 1 - 1.5 hours, as I utilize the healing properties of sound and vibration as an energetic partnership.

Meditative Walking on the Labyrinth

 The Four-Fold Path incorporates the transformational, yet forgotten teachings, the core of which is from the Wisdom literature in the Hebrew Scripture. They are the Via Positiva (blessing), the Via Negativa (emptying), the Via Creativa (receiving the creative spirit), and Via Transformativa (the transformed person transforms the community).

Excerpt from, The Sacred Path Companion, Lauren Artress

 The First stage is remembering. (Viva Positiva).  As you are gathering your thoughts, preparing to begin your walk, remember you are blessed. All that we have... all that we are, are blessings from Divine.

The Second stage is releasing (Via Negativa) or letting go, quieting, opening, emptying or shedding. This stage begins at the entrance and end at the center.

In the Center there is receiving (Via Creativa). Having emptied, there is spaciousness within to receive the creative spirit.

The Fourth stage is resolve (Via Transformativa).  It begins when you leave the center and return on the same path back out of the labyrinth.

There are many aspects of this: you can resolve to take a next step in your life or come to a resolution about something bothering you. REJUVINATION often occurs, or a feeling of REBIRTH begins.

                                                      The Four Rs

                     Releasing.       Receiving     Returning.    Reflecting

There is no right way – or wrong way to walk the labyrinth.

The Labyrinth is a walking meditation. The circuitous, non-linear path lends itself to unwind our busy minds as we turn, welcoming stillness, quiet, listening presence, reflection, prayer, wonder and transformation.
