My path to the deep.

A spiritual awakening of magnitude.

I learned how to work with this deeper ground of being when I went through a dramatic spiritual awakening midway through a doctoral degree, while I was living along the Gulf Coast of Texas. This awakening came after a quarter century of trauma and severe illness, when I decided there had to be a better way to live and fully committed to my own conscious evolution.

My commitment took the form of a self-imposed spiritual retreat in which I learned to consciously shift the frequency of my brainwaves—slowing my brainwaves to alpha and theta to somatically sense subtle states of energy, clairvoyantly perceive a greater spectrum of reality, and receive direct guidance. During this period, I clarified my deepest desire in life: to know Source and live in the eternal reality.

I was done with the shallows—with the materialism perpetuated by the daily news, with the wandering on of unconscious cyclical existence described by the Buddhist term samsara. I suspected that I existed within a much deeper framework, but, despite a lifetime of meditation, I had not yet learned how to work with it.  

Blue Light Being

The next evening, I returned home to an “impossibility”: a highly organized, self-luminous sphere of blue light floating about three and a half feet off the floor in my living room. The level of compassion emanating from this sphere of light exceeds capture by language. It can only be felt. It knew my humanness through and through, but it came from a dimension of loving intelligence where everything is made of wavelengths of high-frequency light, consciousness instantaneously directs movement and form, and all are aware of being part of the whole while still retaining an individual essence.

I consciously integrated with this light on that day. I call it Blue. It is my foremost teacher as well as part of who I am. Since then, I have integrated with other high-frequency light in the purple spectrum. (For those with knowledge of the electromagnetic spectrum, I work with healing frequencies in the blue, indigo, violet, and white light spectrum.)

I experience these non-physical energies made of light as profound evolutionary agents. They have taught me about the world of subtle energy that interpenetrates our physical dimension. They are loving, playful, and infinitely creative. Although they travel the cosmos and originate in higher dimensions, they have aided in human evolution since our origins as a species. They do not denigrate humanity. They are here to help us evolve.

These Light Beings might put it this way: We collaborate with humanity to help you reach your full potential. You are at a critical evolutionary juncture on your path to becoming fully human. To be fully human is to be as divine as us. We are you and you are us.

It hasn’t always been easy keeping a foot in both worlds. I had to rapidly learn how to ground myself, run energy through my chakra system, and practice energy hygiene to stay balanced in these high-frequency energies.

When I asked Blue for practical tools to help others consciously evolve, I was guided to Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT) as created by Dolores Cannon, a pioneer in past life regression and dialogue with the Higher Self.

This dialogue with the deeper ground of our being is achieved by inducing theta brainwaves through guided visualization. My mystical experiences have affirmed for me that theta brainwaves are the frequency of universal communication—the literal wavelengths through which we access the wisdom of our own multidimensional, cosmic consciousness.

Through QHHT, I have found success helping others explore their own multidimensionality, heal on all levels, including their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies, retrieve lost knowledge, and accelerate their own evolutionary process.

Energy Photography

Human eyes only perceive 0.0035% of the electromagnetic spectrum of light. Let that sink in. We are literally surrounded by all the light we cannot see. This high-frequency light is also who we are. Matter is energy slowed down. We are all light energy first and foremost and we are all connected through a universal webwork, or matrix, of light. Quantum physics helps elucidate this deeper, energetic reality, as does the ancient Vedic concept of Indra’s Net.

I took my first “impossible” photographs of spiritual energy on the day my grandmother died in 2009, when I felt enveloped by her spirit. Her invisible presence was palpable, and yet I could not see her with my physical eyes. I thought to take three photographs of myself in this moment and was shocked by what I captured: a verdant green field of energy that appeared composed of bright filaments of light.

From 2009 to 2022, I was able to photograph spiritual energies on rare occasions. The evening I met the divine being of light and evolutionary force I call Blue in my living room, I asked if I could photograph and received a “yes.” Blue showed up powerfully in my first photo and has been communicating with me photographically ever since.

Since integrating with Blue, the ability to photograph energy outside the visible spectrum for human eyes has become a constant for me across multiple camera types. I am currently collaborating with a team of researchers I met at Rice University to better understand my body of energy photography and other photographic anomalies.

The ability to learn about the energetic world through photography is a wild spiritual gift. I share it with discretion. I believe the ability to photograph energy beyond the visible spectrum is evolutionary. My mission in life is to extend this knowledge to the collective consciousness for the benefit of all beings.  

Credentials

In addition to being a certified QHHT Level 1 practitioner currently undergoing Level 2 training, I hold a PhD from the University of Houston, an MFA from the University of Virginia, and am certified in the Silva Method as taught by José Silva. I am also a writer whose work has appeared in the New York Times, Best American Nonrequired Reading, AGNI, and The Caravan, among other publications. I have been involved in original research on spiritual experience for many years, including reporting on Burmese spirit mediumship from Mandalay for the BBC World Service. I grew up in Southeast Asia, New York, Virginia, and Idaho, and welcome clients from a diversity of backgrounds.
