Lori Harger

RN, PMHNP-BC

https://www.nurseshealingnurses.com/

“My journey into healthcare began with a deep desire to provide the kind of holistic care I sought for myself and my own family. I have been a registered nurse since 2005, and a psychiatric nurse practitioner since 2011. Since 2008, I have studied and practiced the methods of Heart-Energy Healing with the Institute for Applied Meditation- I am Heart. I work for the health department of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe where I am so grateful to be allowed the time and creativity to integrate botanical, nutritional, and energetic healing practices with standard psychiatric care.

My joy in sharing Heart-Energy Healing has inspired me to develop a professional peer-support network for nurses and energy healers: Nurses Healing Nurses officially launches in 2025. My conviction is that as more of us connect with our hearts, we will transcend today’s challenges to create a world where the diversity of all life is celebrated and nurtured.

I love living in the Sonoran desert of Tucson, Arizona where my husband and I are building a sustainable home. Our young-adult children and grandchildren regularly fill our home with laughter and music.”

Bridging Hearts to Heal Our World

Unprecedented times require our full-hearted presence as energy healers. Heart-Energy Healing is an embodied method for directing energy through heart and hands for expanded perception, physical relief and emotional transformation. The heart generates the strongest electromagnetic field in the body, affecting every other organ system and impacting others around us. When we energize our hearts, we activate bridges for transformation in many directions: We link conscious with subconscious awareness, we strengthen the body-heart-mind connection, we open our individual perceptions to safely feel the perceptions of others, and we connect with the greater web of life that holds us all. The methods of Heart-Energy Healing can be incorporated into your existing energy practice and are also accessible to those with no prior experience.

In this experiential workshop we will explore the sustainable and renewable resource of your heart in a variety of ways, including informational presentation on a Heart-Centered Model of Health, time for movement, seated breath practice, sound practice, self-treatment, and partner practice. Lively and compassionate discussion will be threaded throughout the workshop. Come feel the energy move in your heart and hands as we join together in this journey of the heart to heal ourselves, each other, and our world.

Amelia Vogler

Grounding & Energy Medicine Specialist

Energetic “Personal” Story

“I was introduced to the clinical aspects of the energy work through an indirect treatment of debilitating and consistent migraine headaches. When I was first introduced to energy medicine, I was working on a very high-performing team at a Fortune 500 company. I was exhausted, burned out, and filled with an empty feeling. A friend pointed me to a Healing Touch practitioner, whom I began working with bi-weekly. Delighted by the soothing, I consistently sought energy therapy as a way to mitigate my life stress. And, then, a few months into it, I realized that I hadn’t been to the hospital for a migraine. And then half a year passed.

And then a year, and, now, it has been almost 12 years with no migraines. And in addition to being migraine free, I found my first beloved Healing Touch mentor and friend. She was a nurse, who helped me understand the energy aspects of the organs and supported me as I better learned the physical aspects of our physiology and anatomy.

Following my internal compass, I shifted out of a story with Corporate America. I created (or re-created) my story to become one that contains chapters of deep personal Spiritual work. One of the comprehensive studies of anatomy and physiology, energy theory, practice, and finally, to include the opening of my clinical Energy work private practice—The Healing Space.”
