I first became interested in finding an energy healer when I had aches and pains all over my body,…read morealong with a lack of energy and a foggy brain. For someone my age who is in good shape and has no serious medical conditions, I should be feeling better! So, I did some research, and learned that we can store emotions from past unresolved trauma in the body, and those stored emotions can block our energy and make us unhealthy. I had been under quite a bit of stress over the past year, and I wondered if my aches and pains could be my emotions stuck in my body. I decided to find an energy healer to help with this, and my Google search led me to Atousa Raissyan. I reached out to Atousa to find she was very responsive, and she was available to work with me. She introduced me to her Life Transformations/Past Trauma Release package, and it was at that point that I knew this work we were about to do was going to be more significant and meaningful than I initially realized. So, I took a leap of faith and scheduled my first appointment! We completed a total of 10 sessions over a period of 6 months. There were times where I was eager to quickly push through to the next session, times where I needed to take a break for a few weeks, and a few rescheduled appointments. Atousa remained flexible and patient with me during this time, but also checked in with me regularly to make sure I was doing ok and she offered support if I was struggling with anything. There were also homework assignments, which complemented the in-person work we were doing. The work we did together was not always easy for me. It required a level of trust and vulnerability as we continued to uncover and peel back the layers of trauma. But with Atousa's wisdom and guidance, I found I could relax and allow her to lead the process. She taught me how to listen to my inner child and empowered my inner child to find her voice. She easily navigated intense scenarios that produced sometimes overwhelming feelings, ensuring that those feelings were fully resolved and integrated before moving on. This work wasn't always difficult though - there were also moments that were fun and entertaining. I found that as we engaged more with my inner child, there were opportunities to connect with that playful, youthful side of myself, and have some fun! Atousa's expertise as a healer is obvious. In a very short amount of time, she was able to get to the source of my deep-seated emotions and guide me through the process of clearing them out and letting them go. I completed the program a couple of weeks ago and I can say with confidence that I have made good progress in healing at an energetic level, and this is resulting in a positive shift in all areas of my life. It feels good to finally let go of that old stuff that was weighing me down my whole life! Going forward, I will continue to have occasional sessions with Atousa as needed, as healing is a long-term process that happens over time, and it is likely that more things will come up as I continue to peel back the layers. As for my aches and pains, my foggy brain, and my lack of energy, I believe this is improving! This is probably the result of clearing out the energetic blockages from the stuck emotions and allowing the energy to flow, along with me also taking better care of myself in general, with proper nutrition, rest, and exercise. I strongly recommend Atousa to anyone who is looking to do past trauma release work, or for any other service she provides. Not only is she clearly an expert in her field and great at what she does, Atousa's authentic personality and her genuine caring nature will put you at ease and will provide a sense of safety as you work through those uncomfortable aspects of yourself that require healing the most.

I have been meditating with Mara, owner of Four Directions Wellness for several months now and…read morealthough it's not the topic of my review, have to say that almost every meditation with her yields some type of helpful personal insight. I wanted to share that I took her "Tapping Into Your Intuition" class last Saturday and feel that it was well worth it. I took the class because I wanted to see if I could use my intuition to play a stronger role in my life. Most of the concepts Mara introduced were fairly new to me, but she made them all completely accessible and I can see how each could benefit me in some way. There are several I plan to use right away. Mara's room was comfortable, well organized, and the environment was very conducive to learning. Mara has mastery, enthusiasm and love for what she is doing and for the people she is serving and it shows. She prepared useful and relevant materials that we can refer back to and use henceforth. The participants were very friendly and the group meshed well imho. Mara did a great job of directing conversations and keeping the class focused. All of us were able to share useful information and, of course, Mara shared a number of helpful resources with us as well. The class was pertinent, interesting, fun, and useful. The time went by all too quickly and when it was over, it seemed hard to tear ourselves away.

5 stars for Tracey! Having a bit of knowledge of astrology myself but not quite enough…read moreunderstanding and discipline to sit down and do my own yearly forecast, I booked with Tracey. Professional to the bone, she dove right in. She seems to warm up going over the basics and then she just starts flowing. There was some firely energy coming in from the ethers, and we lost Internet connection several times (it happens!), but Tracey never lost her stride. She kindly extended the session to make up for the time we lost during the disconnect. We did a month by month yearly which covered A LOT. The way she describes what's going on in the chart and between the planets, she helped deepen my own understanding of astrology which I appreciated. Her interpretations were chock full and at first I was processing all of it and asking questions. Then, there was so much insight being revealed that my brain started firing on all pistons! After our session I had to write down all the ideas that came to me before they faded!! I'd say she is great for someone who never had a chart read as well as someone with deeper knowledge of astrology. Glad I recorded the sessionn as it will be helpful to break down monthly signposts for myself. Thanks Tracey!

Always fishing then adjusted her statements after I corrected her or told her nothing resonated then after I asked specific questions and it was a lot um um um. Nothing direct. Then she ended with perhaps he wasn't connecting cause he wanted another medium just seems like she gave herself an escape on why she couldn't connect. I seen a few psychics with much stronger readings so it was easy to hear the BS coming from her. It was 62mins of bullshit. Waste of money.

The whole experience was very eye opening, because we were complete strangers. Even though we were strangers, she was able to share information about me that was very interesting. I learned a lot about the different colors in my auras and what they meant for me as well as my chakras. I never really considered how all of these different aspects can go together to impact our bodies and minds. I would definitely recommend this experience to everyone because you'll learn a lot about yourself through a different perspective!

I highly recommend Moksha Living. I've worked with multiple providers there in various capacities…read moreand they all have been incredibly wonderful, accommodating, and - best of all - helpful in my mental health and growth journey. The search for a good therapist who you jive with, takes insurance, and is also accepting new clients can be really demoralizing. It definitely was for me. I felt so fortunate when I found Huma Sikandar Fatakia, and I can't say enough good things about her. She is so understanding and has an almost uncanny ability to remember details I haven't spoken about in a while, and connect the dots to help me recognize patterns and opportunities in my life. She has also helped me incorporate some mindful practices in my life when things feel heavy... which I never thought I'd be able to do. When Huma went on maternity leave, there was a seamless transition to Alyssa McCall for that duration. I again felt really fortunate that they didn't leave me hanging and matched me with another provider. Alyssa was also great! It is hard switching from one provider to another, but Alyssa offered new perspective and some different tools that I've held onto since going back to Huma. Finally, Michell Stanley was able to accommodate my partner and me very quickly for sessions, and that has been a huge help. She is very good at what she does and very understanding. As the owner of the business, she's also easy to work with for any administrative needs. I feel so extremely lucky to have found Moksha Living when I did, before the pandemic, and to be able to continue my work with them in a safe way. During COVID-19, all sessions are remote via a secure platform.

I cannot recommend Michell and Moksha Living enough.

I've tried a not-insignificant number of therapists in my life and Michell is above and beyond the best therapist I have ever worked with.

What a peaceful place to come before or after work. This place speaks women empowerment to me…read more There is a lot of zen and positive vibes in the room. You can have tea, water, or san pellegrino before diving into a stress relief meditation, emotion based training, or breathing session. Caitlin, Kirsten, and Emily are all really kind and wonderful teachers. They explain different stones with healing properties and really help you destress in the 30 minute or 1 hour session. You can come wearing your work clothes or anything you find comfortable and either lie down or sit up in a position that makes you feel comfortable during meditation and that's what I appreciate about Glow Club. I ended up purchasing the 10 credit pack after a free session and have had a solid experience. I look forward to trying some yoga in the fall when the class is available. The evening glow is probably my favorite class at the moment. The breathing class was intense for me and I would like to try it again to really get into it. I found myself forgetting to go with the rhythm during active breathing and almost falling asleep. I live and work in Silver Spring so I can only attend evening classes but these classes are great as a "cool down" post work out as well. They also help me focus on the present so hopefully they can have a similar affect on you.
