Meet Sharon D. Goodwyn


Professional Philosophical Position
After 13 years of nursing and seeing the end results of the loss of health, I walked whole heartedly into the world of prevention and wellness.

Let me start by setting a few myths straight.

First: I am not the healer, only you and your Creator can heal you. I am the facilitator of the healing process, shining a light on your highest truth and holding a safe space for you to awaken and walk into your unrealized potentials. That is done in a number of ways but mainly by the mere fact that I walk my talk. Like when one tuning fork is struck any tuning fork within range begins to hum the same tune. Also, the modalities used in a session are complementary to the willingness to explore what is possible, good listening skills and the intentions set by the practitioner and the client.

Second: Helping people is not what motivates me. I delight and enjoy being in the company of fellow humans that are stretching, growing and creating, making not only their world but the world at large a brighter place. A favorite question of mine is, "Who are you when you are no longer healing?" Because when you can begin to imagine who you are beyond healing and what you'd do with yourself and your life, you begin to realize that there is a whole world of possibilities beyond what we go around experiencing every day. That very notion makes my heart jump with joy. So I'm very motivated to explore potential, co-create and sharin' what I've come to understand about the power within our hearts called LOVE. Sharin' how to transform an experience, be it one of tension to a relaxed state of being, or enhancing a given talent or transforming an injury from a time of helplessness and pain, to a period of increased awareness, growth and overall improved health and well-being gives me great joy because it enriches both of our lives.

Taking responsibility for your life, health and well being is about educating yourself about your options and what you and your body needs to serve you well. Understanding how to have a balanced relationship with the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of our being are some of the first steps on your journey to self-discovery and what is possible.

I am a nurse massage therapist, a DNA nutritional counselor and a soul on a mission to bring Heaven on Earth. It has been an honor and very inspirational to be a part of co-creating and to witness the amazing capacity of the human spirit and body to heal and evolve.

It's no secret that LOVE is the ingredient that heals.
HOW WELL DO YOU LOVE? Is what I answer too and motivates me in my life.
