About Anita
I am a Certified Master Teacher Level Reiki, Level IV Huna Kane, and Level II BO-SSAGE practitioner who is also practiced in Acupressure, Myofacial Release, Qigong Healing methods, Cupping, Tui Na, and Shiatsu. I am also a certified Level III Qigong instructor and Workshop Facilitator. Currently, I also studying to be an Herbalist
through the The East West School of Herbology and a member of the American Herbalist Guild. My education background
also includes a M.S. in Environmental Health (Colorado State University
(CSU)), B.S. in Geology (University of Michigan), and the secondary
science teacher licensure program (CSU).
I have been a Reiki practitioner for over 7 years. My primary
occupations have all been focused in the arena of experiential
education. For nearly 8 years, I have been a teacher and coordinator
for science education outreach programs based out of various universities. In the last grant-funded program, I taught hands-on, inquiry,
and technology-based curriculum about the heart, healthy lifestyles,
and cardiovascular disease to diverse middle school students and
teachers. Additionally, I have been teaching other science programs
about DNA, wildfires, weather, Colorado ecosystems, watershed
awareness, water-related curricula, and have been teaching skiing
for over 24 years (PSIA Level III Certified Telemark and Level
II Alpine Ski Instructor). For last 10 years, I have taught, exclusively;
telemark skiing to enable people to explore the backcountry with
greater ease. Prior to my work in science education, I was an
environmental scientist for over 10 years.
After the grant funding for my last primary occupation ended,
I decided to follow my dream and create a wellness practice --
Mountain Sage, Inc. After perfecting the recipe for my Muscle
& Joint Pain Relief formulas that I have been making for over 6 years, the
timing felt right to make them available to
the public. At the same time, I completed the four levels of the
Huna Kane Body Alignment and two levels of BO-SSAGE training. I am passionate about offering
both the Huna Kane and Reiki practices, producing my formulas,
and leading people toward health and wellness.
My entire life, I have been fascinated with merging science and
metaphysics. As a teenager, I became even more aware of the strength
of my intuition when I “knew” of my distant father’s
death before it was communicated to me. As similar occurrences
happened throughout my life, I actively sought answers to what
I was sensing and experiencing. As a result of my life experiences
and coming to an understanding of the intuitive process, it has
become an integral part of my wellness practice. As I work on
clients, I inform them of what I sense to help them release old
patterns, heal relationship issues, and/or move toward a greater
sense of empowerment to help them heal themselves. My intention
is to enable people to weave together their body, mind, and spirit
toward peace, contentment, love, and joy.
My intuition also brought me to Colorado over 24 years ago. I
knew, from the time I was sixteen years old, that this is home.
I enjoy immersing myself in the activities of the mountains because
they resonate with my spirit and help me feel one with all –
especially, in those moments when I feel off-center and need to
feel more connected.
