Meghan fire hooping spiralMeghan is here to inspire others to shine in their own unique ways and to help each person discover the “Amazing Grace” that is within. Through Reiki, Yoga, Hooping, Fire-dancing, and Meditation she helps people to connect more deeply with their hearts, spirits & bodies, and remember who they truly are, Grace embodied.

Meghan began hooping in 2001 at the first Bonnarro music festival. It was an empowering way of moving for her as it was the first time she felt Graceful while moving. As a child, she was clumsy and uncoordinated and  never got the hang of hula hooping, so when she discovered as an adult that she could hoop, she was immediately hooked. Eventually the path led her to Jewels of Synergy Hoops, and late one night at Shakori Hills, Jewels initiated Meghan into the world of fire hooping. This sparked a fire in her heart. Learning to dance inside a ring of fire is a study that continues to teach her many valuable life lessons. She enjoys sharing the teachings of the hoop and she sees the hoop as a key to the heart that helps people open to their own creative essence, inherent goodness, and inner child. She truly knows that creative play with one's heart leading the way can transform a person's entire life, as it has done with hers. She is now offering heart-centered hooping classes in Raleigh.

A student of life, Meghan continues seeking experiences and modalities that increase the Grace she feels inside of her. In a natural alignment, she found her way to Anusara Yoga®, the name Anusara means to flow with Grace. The study of this modality is training her to set the foundation and stay open to Grace, especially when life is challenging. Meghan and her teacher Paul Sobin assisting her in Danurasana The power of Anusara Yoga's teachings is something Meghan is passionate about sharing with the world. In August 2011, she completed the Triangle Anusara Yoga Teacher Training Program, a culmination of the past 4 years of study with her teachers Lila Rasa, Sommer & Paul Sobin. Meghan is now offering alignment based heart-centered yoga classes in Raleigh NC.

A third anchor in Meghan's daily life is Reiki. Reiki healing promotes overall balance helping one to function and feel better, so it's no wonder it has profoundly changed Meghan's life. She is eternally grateful for the way her path unfolded to lead her to her teacher, Ann Ehringhaus, and the Usui Reiki lineage. She has been studying Reiki Open Path at Reiki Retreat Salter Path, NCwith Ann for the past 4 years, and is always excited for opportunities to continue studying with her. Meghan weaves Reiki intro every filament of her life and deeply enjoys sharing Reiki with others. If you are curious about Reiki, contact Meghan to ask questions and schedule a session.   Meghan believes the best way to learn about Reiki is to simply experience it, and she's not alone as, Dr. Oz said in an episode of  his show, “Try Reiki!” Pricing for Reiki sessions can be found on the services page. Inquire about discounts and possible options for trade/barter. Experience the calming, balancing, clarifying, soothing, supportive energy of Reiki. This non-invasive healing practice is safe, and supports any medical treatment or drugs prescribed by your doctor.

When Meghan teaches hula hooping or yoga or gives a Reiki session, she is offering them from her heart and integrating her studies of Life, Anusara Yoga, Reiki, Hooping, Qi Gong, Shiva-Shakti Tantric Philosophy, BodyTalk, & Meditation. She is thankful for Grace, the gift of life itself, and offers much gratitude to all her teachers especially the littlest one her son!
