Healing From The Center
Ann Petrus Baker, BSN, MPH, of Essence Health is a Mind, Body, Spirit Practitioner whose mission is to co-create transformational experiences with clients and groups that help people to improve their health and well-being. Her approach, Healing from the Center, acknowledges that life can knock us off center, but with a bit of direction and remembering, we can find our way home. That home, our Center, is our natural state of awareness, peace and happiness from which we can create health and well-being. Healing from the Center uses a combination of “top-down” and “bottom up” modalities bringing mind, body and heart into alignment. This approach is very effective for a variety of mental and physical health conditions such as anxiety and depression, digestive issues, migraine headaches, pre-diabetes, weight loss, hormone imbalance, chronic fatigue and pain syndromes, and autoimmune disease. Her expertise comes from combining her background as a nurse with her interest and training in holistic health, neuroscience, spirituality, contemplation, Internal Family Systems and Jungian Psychology. This combination addresses the whole person and helps to get to the root cause of the disharmony. Your natural state (your Center) is health, happiness and peace. What’s getting in the way? What needs to come into balance?
Ann creates an expansive, safe, accepting space and uses a personalized approach drawing on many tools:
Wellness Education and Coaching: receive personalized health information and strategies that support your physical, mental, emotional, nutrition, and spiritual needs. Co-create a vision for your well-being and develop an action plan to keep you moving forward.
Safe and Sound Protocol: Re-tone the Vagus nerve and shape the nervous system towards relaxation and restoration of the mind and body.
Guided meditations and emotional processing.
Energy psychology methods to interrupt old trauma and negative reaction patterns for lasting relief.
Sound and vibrational healing through Tuning Forks and Healing Touch, bringing your system into balance and harmony.
Spiritual companioning: deepen your connection to your Center or Higher Self, opening up pathways to growth, insight, healing and transformation.
