SimplyAware Advisory Board
One of my favorite Buddhist sayings is: "You can never set foot in the same river twice". The same is true of our bodies. From moment to moment, we are simply not the same beings. Our bodies, minds and spirits are ever changing, evolving and either moving into or away from health. Because of these dynamic forces of change, the techniques and insights of healers must be dynamic and intuitive to effectively serve their clients.
Over the years, in their relentless search for the most effective healing modalities and practices available for our clients, Sifu Chris and Fayne have worked with some amazing healers from all over the world. Our SimplyAware Advisory Board reflects a broad range of talents and experience through both Western and Eastern modalities. We are most grateful to these special people for lending their continued encouragement and support to our education, teaching and healing efforts.
