Certifications and Experience

Qigong Instructor Karyn Niin Kitigade

The morning after my first Healing Touch class, I found myself making the long drive home from Chicago with a very stuffy head and sinus congestion. While driving with one  hand on the wheel, I used the other hand to do a technique that the Healing Touch program calls "Ultrasound" on my face. Suddenly I felt my sinus congestion break loose and I had to frantically search for the Kleenex in my glove box. This was the only "sign" I needed to let me know that I had to learn more about working with energy healing. I completed all 5 levels of the Healing Touch Program and then went on to become certified.

Shortly after becoming a Healing Touch Certified Practitioner in August 2008, I happened upon an  article about Spring Forest Qigong. I traveled to Minnesota for a weekend level one and two class and was intrigued with the gentle qigong movements that are used to move our energy. I continued studying this ancient art and became a Spring Forest Qigong Level one and two teacher. Some of the personal benefits I have received from doing practicing include lowering my blood pressure and blood sugar levels without  the use of medication. As a Healing Touch Practitioner and Spring Forest Qigong instructor, I help people remove blockages in their energy systems so that they may experience optimal health and well-being.

In 2010, I became a SoulCollage® Facilitator. SoulCollage® is a method of self-exploration using collages that you create. I lived most of my life in fear of having being asked to do anything artistic. The thought of having to do anything with paints and crayons sent shivers up my spine and brought knots to my stomach. Through SoulCollage®, I've had the opportunity to learn more about who I am and I have joyfully discovered my hidden artistic side.

Wanting to learn more about energy healing, I traveled back to Minnesota to study with Cyndi Dale, the renowned author of many books on energy medicine. I completed the Cyndi's energy healing series of classes that are offered through Normandale Community College.

Next I began reading about acupressure. I could see the connection between the energy healing work I was doing and acupressure. I have completed the Seva Stress Release class, three other specialized acupressure technique classes from Soul Lightening Acupressure.

Another connection in this world of energy healing was made when I studied Qi~ssage with Chunyi Lin at Spring Forest Qigong. Qi~ssage is massage done on acupressure points. The more I study and learn about the various techniques of energy healing, the more passionate I become about it.

In August 2013 I completed the necessary requirements to become a Master Healer with Spring Forest Qigong and re-certified as a Spring Forest Qigong level one and two instructor.

I have a degree in Experiential Education and use this teaching model when doing presentations and classes. I believe that most of us learn better by doing, so my classes and workshops are hands on, experiential and interactive. Laughing and having fun are important parts of my daily life and I weave  them both into any presentation I do. I have presented at conferences for teachers at Northeastern Illinois  University, nursing staff of the Dean Health System and for the Wisconsin Army National Guard at their Medical Team Conference.

I practiced energy medicine for four years at the Lake Delton Integrative Medicine Clinic before joining the Sky Blue Dreams Wellness Center in Oxford, WI.

I am a life long learner. I believe that keeping our mind and bodies active are crucial components of our health and longevity. So, once again I am back in school. This time to study feng shui. Feng shui is yet another practice that is based on energetic principles. Everyday I see the truth and proof in that phrase "everything is energy and energy is everything". The feng shui style I have chosen to study is Instinctive Feng Shui which was created by Denise Linn. Instinctive Feng Shui employs the techniques and principles of traditional feng shui along with the likes and dislikes of the people who live in the home.
