Introduction
Tricia has worked in the health movement for the past 30 years as manager of The Vitality Oasis and Health Club in Rosenheim, Germany. After, as owner and operator of Peter's Wellness Center, later renamed, The Good Life Spa in St. Maarten, Netherland Antilles.
She worked as an independent massage therapist for many years and studied shamanism in a four year school, The Sacred School, She is a practicing Integrated Energy Therapy Master, and a Flower Essence Practitioner. She is a student of "A Course in Miracles", as well as initiate of Radha Soami Science of the Soul.
Four years ago, Tricia opened Ti Spa in St. Martin, FWI and created the line Potent Nature to use exclusively in Ti Spa as well as fresh culinary ingredients. The menu of services was well loved.
Potent Nature is a co-creative endeavor. I work intent fully with Nature Intelligiences to formulate the Potent Nature Line using kinesiology testing as the communication bridge. Nature equals balance. As equal partners in this co-creative action, I supply the intent, the balancing effect I am seeking, and Nature supplies the form. It is an ongoing and evolving relationship.
Because I wish to maintain quality and recognize the Potency added to any endeavor that we enact with heart and hands, I work in small batches.
Once this online market is up and running, I plan to continue developing an online AIA massage training program. AIA, All- in-All Massage was developed over the past twenty years of practicing Bodywork Therapies.
I have found it to be an effective protocol for most every disbalance, acting as an overall body, mind, spirit and emotional tonic and re-aligner.
To Elaborate
To elaborate more about my love affair with Nature Intelligiences...
More than twenty years ago I began to read Maechelle Small Wrights books about her experiences with what she termed Nature Intelligiences and which others have recognized as fairies, elves, little people… Her accounts and the subsequent processes and garden that she developed in cooperation with these Nature Intelligiences as well as the Perelandra Flower Essences inspired me to cultivate my own relationship with Nature Intelligiences.
The kinesiology tool taught by Maechelle in her book "Flower Essences" is the communication bridge I use to develop this relationship. I am in communication to develop each recipe for the Potent Nature product line.
Following are words from "The Five Star Healing Program":
“Kinesiology is a practical tool that uses the muscles and electrical system of the body as conductors of energy that can be interpreted or read in a simple yes/no format. Like the basic computer language 101010, information that is underneath mental thought can be perceived and read.
What is necessary to use this intuitive tool effectively? It is to use this tool when we are centered in our guts, our body-mind, center or Sacred Witness; all words for the intuition. If we are in our minds or thought when testing, the results will probably follow whatever we're thinking and thus not be necessarily accurate."
