The Path of Practice
Where the Wisdom of Nature Becomes Practice
From the Practice of Tradition
To Personal Transformation
Hi, I’m Terra, a wilderness-loving transformational coach, healer, and herbalist dedicated to guiding others on their path to balance and well-being. My mission is to foster profound transformation through the wisdom of nature and ancient practices, cultivating resilience and hope in the lives of those I work with.
My holistic journey began on the farm where I was raised, deeply intertwined with esoteric traditions. Exploring the sacred land, revered by Native Americans, and immersing myself in Japanese and Chinese practices of Chi/Ki, blended with the rich history of my Irish heritage, shaped my understanding of the interconnectedness of the world and true balance and healing.
This journey called Life has taken me across diverse landscapes, from the steamy everglades to the verdant hills of Northern California, from the cold mist of Puget Sound to the stones of Stonehenge, and the mystical shrines, forests and temples of Japan. Each magical place left an indelible mark on my heart and soul, deepening my commitment to creating practical, sustainable solutions for well-being of the individual while supporting the earth.
As a young adult, I naturally acted as a bridge between worlds for others. This innate ability, coupled with the transformative experiences of parenthood and personal growth, taught me to blend practicality with spirituality. My journey through a catalyst of intense personal transformation—where I learned to release control and embrace Joy— equipped me to guide others through their own profound changes.
Living in the Present:
I realized a profound truth: I am the only one who can live my life fully, and to do that we must be embracing each present moment. Plans are necessary, but understanding that NOW is the only time we CAN ACT. This understanding came during a surreal experience where I saw my perceived problems transform into tools of divine healing. This realization was a turning point, leading me to practice profound change with unwavering dedication.
In the early hours of one morning, in an awareness of between worlds, I saw the person I imagined was the cause of my problems standing beside my bed with a bloody knife in their hand. In that surreal moment, this person transformed into the surgical blade in the hands of a divine being. I realized that the person was merely the instrument of a greater force, excising the cancerous patterns I had been unconsciously clinging to and repeating.
Holistic Living and Sustainability:
Today, I live on the property my grandparents bought, in a cabin built by my grandpa and great-grandpa. My husband, Motoshi, and I are transforming this land into a sustainable permaculture farm, cultivating medicinal herbs, vegetables, and fruits, and caring for livestock. Our farm is a living example of holistic living and sustainability.
Guiding Your Transformation:
I am dedicated to supporting others on their holistic journeys, dreaming up new ways to help people transform and awaken to their true potential. Being part of the transformations journey is a humbling honor and deeply inspiring. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together, creating a life that makes you feel radically alive.
