ARY RODRIGUEZ
Ary, originally a Miami, Florida, native, has been practicing hypnosis since 2010. Her passion for helping others achieve their goals and heal their spirit led her to furthering her curiosity and expanding her knowledge through various techniques including Reiki, Magnified Healing, and Quantum Healing Hypnosis (QHHT), a type of hypnotherapy involving past-life regression. Whatever your goal, Ary will meet you where you are and help you get to where you are going.
MARANDA CURRY
Maranda Curry is a 200hr RYT Yoga instructor and 2nd degree Usui Reiki Practitioner. She is the mother of three amazing humans and lover of all-natural life. After living through a little more than a decade of her own healing journey, she came to realize that the ups and downs of her life would lead her to learn first-hand how to unite these two practices.
She feels it is her calling to make herself available to the community as a teacher and healer. Her journey has not been an easy one, as no healing path is, so she is able to relate strongly to her clientele on a deep spiritual level. Maranda has found her own peace and has sought to elevate her practice to bring peace to others. Reiki and Yoga are for all ages and stages- they meet you where you are. Maranda looks forward to doing the same!
heather kennedy
Heather is a Shamanic Healer that walks between the seen and unseen. Spirit works through her to provide healing. Heather’s goal is to give people guidance and support in a loving environment that allows them to come home to themselves.
Born as a healer through a strong line of healers on her mother’s side Heather did not fully step into her calling until later in life, when indeed, the universe made it clear. Heather’s Grandmother taught her “Darling, the universe will tap you on the shoulder and if you don’t listen it will smack you upside the head”. No longer pushing aside her calling and gifts she was called to Monument Valley where she spent time with a Medicine Man and participated in a life changing initiation.
Heather does much of her work through the Medicine Wheel and Shamanic Journeying where she enters altered states of consciousness in order to access non-ordinary reality and connect with Spirit.
“I believe one misconception is that spirit work, healing, and coming home to yourself is a clean, smooth process. It often is not. It can be messy. It requires moving the mud and making the water cloudy before it’s clear. I tell people the time I spend with them is like liquid plumber for the spiritual pipes. It is a period of time where sacred space is being opened and held for the benefit of their healing. That alone is beautiful.”

Heather is a Mom, Spiritual Coach, Intuitive Medium, and Energy Medicine Healing Practitioner. She became acquainted with the gentle power of natural healing twenty years ago, working in Radiation Oncology with patients who sought out alternative methods for pain management, anxiety, and depression. She was intrigued with the healing power that came from the energetics of our own body.
Heather helps facilitate deep healing while delivering heavenly messages from your highest guidance through various natural methodologies to help calm the central nervous system. She helps people find their deepest purpose in life and helps to heal the fear and trauma that prevents a sustained peaceful state of being.
