Welcome!
Two Courses Starting in the Fall:
The Four Foundations: Fundamental of Spiritual Development and Personal Empowerment
This course is a nine-month transformational process in how to access and develop the Four Foundations: Integrity, Grace, Love, and Wisdom. It will teach practices for expansion of consciousness through shamanic journey, sound, movement, and simple awareness techniques, and cover aspects of energy body protection and management. For more information visit the Classes and Workshops page.
Energy Medicine Training for Healers
This nine-month training covers
intuitive development and discernment, establishing sacred space, accessing the
spiritual realities for healing information and energy, generating altered states of
consciousness to induce healing plasticity, energetic protection and self-care,
boundaries, resonance, flow, and energy clearing for those in the healing
professions. These techniques
enhance all kinds of therapeutic practices whether or not there is an overtly spiritual/energetic
component. We will discuss
how the energetic environment can lead to health problems and what methods are
best used for different conditions.
Seattle Seidr
Seidr (pronounced
"sigh-th") is a Northern European shamanic and mystical tradition. Seattle Seidr is a community of practitioners and participants interested in exploring this tradition and integrating the ancient wisdom of Seidr with the present day reality. We are providing monthly oracular and healing High Seat Ceremonies for the public, and initiation classes for those with training in shamanic work.

Media
I have published a meditation CD
available through CD Baby or iTunes. The CD can be played during
healing sessions or meditation. This kind of sound work enhances
"right-brain" functions such as creativity and intuition and helps
induce trance or meditative brain-wave states. To purchase go to the iTunes Store (search Melissa
Rosenberger) or link here to CD Baby: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/melissarosenberger
My Philosophy of Healing
I believe that we all have the capacity to lead
remarkable lives. Often, this involves "unlearning" all the ways of
being that are not authentic to us as individuals. It involves
discovering and developing our inherent gifts and talents and finding
which arenas of life are ours to explore. It involves taking care of
our minds, bodies, and spirits so that we maximize our potential in any
given moment.
Health
care in general is like tending to a garden. We tend to our bodies, minds, and
spirits to maximally support that which is present for us in our lives.
It is a process of realignment,
strengthening, nourishing, and clearing so that we can have the best
experience of life possible.
I
ascribe to Angeles Arrien's Eight Concepts of Healing. Healing is not
only about help during illness, but is a broader life process that
includes the following:
1. A lifelong journey toward [realizing] wholeness
2. Remembering what has been forgotten about connection, unity, and interdependence among all things
3. Embracing what is most feared
4. Opening what has been closed, softening what has hardened into obstruction
5. Entering into transcendent, timeless moments
6. [Accessing and expressing] creativity, passion, and love.
7. Seeking and expressing self in its fullness
8. Learning to trust life
Healing is a journey, I am honored to be a part of that process. To those who wish to work with me, I look forward to meeting you!
