About Alchemy Wellness
Why Alchemy Wellness?
Alchemy is the ancient art/study of transformation. I love this as a starting place, a metaphor, analogy... Yes. This is the work that I do as well.
Ancient Alchemists:
-
Studied the Transmutation of Matter
-
Aimed to turn Metals (Life's Challenges) into Gold
-
Sought the Universal Elixir of Optimal Health
-
Split all forms of matter into a trinity of Body, Mind, & Soul.

Healthy Body
The physical body consists of: Blood, Muscles, Bone, Connective Tissue, Water, and Microbes. Body is the structure that our soul inhabits--Our Space Suit. I aim to rebalance health and physical imbalances, to optimize function

Calm Mind
In ancient studies of alchemy, Mind & Spirit are one. I think of this as the personality construct, or EGO. Eastern ideologies remind us that "monkey mind" and overactive thinking is detrimental for our health.

Soul is the essence that activates our physical bodies. Eastern traditions refer to soul as "The Observer Within." In ancient alchemical practices Soul is consciousness.
