Nina Twombly Brennan Healing Science Practitioner

Nina has held a private practice since age 18. After her own life-changing experiences in Central and South America, where she started to awaken to greater unity and connectedness, Nina left the traditional university path to study Lomi Lomi (Hawai'ian massage) in Kona, Hawai'i, with Kahuna (elder/wisdomkeeper) Margaret Machado. In 2010, she completed the four-year energy healing program at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, renowned for its professionalism, integrity, and transformative power. Along the way, she has become passionate about facilitating awakening and transformation in others.

Nina's healing path has led to her to work with many gifted shaman/healers, including the "Altomisayoks," celestial shamans, of the Peruvian Andes. She travels to the Andes twice a year, and also leads ceremony gatherings at her home in Santa Fe. Please contact her for more information on spiritual pilgrimages to the Andes and ceremony opportunities in and around Santa Fe.

Nina's healing sessions are deeply intuitive and involve listening to the subtle signals of the body and energy field. She moves into a state of receptive listening, which opens the energy field and often reveals an unspoken trauma/experience held beneath the client's presenting complaint. Addressing the unconscious, sinking below the mental-story level, and getting out of the way allows for deep release and healing. Clients usually walk away feeling refreshed, relaxed, and more balanced.

Brennan Healing Science (BHS) works on four dimensions: the physical body, the aura (chakras), the hara (a deeper dimension where an individuals soul purposes and intention are held), and the core (pure light). A trained Brennan healer learns to perceive and move between dimensions. The Brennan training involves extensive personal process work, psychological-spiritual integration work, and education in core energetics and the pathwork (www.thepathwork.org). All of this is an integrated part of the healing session, offering opportunity for understanding and compassion when working with any and all concerns, be they psychological, spiritual, or physical. Although the work primarily focuses in the energy field, there can be tremendous positive effect on the physical body, making BHS effective for post-operative pain, chronic illness, sprains, muscle tension, headaches, etc.

Sessions last one-and-a-quarter-hours. View www.underthepine.com for more information.

"I am always amazed that Nina can sit at the beginning of a session and through a short conversation start to penetrate to the very heart of a particular pattern or problem, be it primarily physical, emotional, or spiritual. Every time I gain a great deal of clarity about core issues that are creating imbalance for me and get very practical advice on how to work with them. She works spontaneously, drawing from a variety of modalities, addressing the imbalance in the way that seems most appropriate, a healing synthesis of intuition, clear presence, and years of training. Each time it feels like exactly what was needed. Each time I leave feeling more balanced, whole, and connected. Nina brings a great depth and wholeheartedness to her work, working with energy in a very grounded and grounding way. She brings a kind of fresh and joyous wisdom to every session that is very uplifting, life affirming, and quite remarkable."
