Igniting Spirit: Born from the desire to be in service
Igniting Spirit was established in 2008 and is part of a magical community of Healers, Teachers, Shamanic Practitioners, Reiki Masters, and Lightworkers who strive to provide loving healing and support to all who seek restoration, information, and community. The offerings are diverse, unique, personal, and the intentions behind each one are created with integrity and clarity.
Each person on this planet is a perfect being; a bright, shining light; a beautiful soul wrapped in human form. Our experiences in this life can be challenging, rewarding and empowering when approached from a place of love and balance. We strive to offer assistance in finding that balance. Each encounter, every healing, and all of our offerings are as distinct and extraordinary as the individuals involved.
Igniting Spirit Offerings Q&A
I have spent my lifetimes here seeking, learning, and offering who I am and what I feel is helpful on this Human Earth Walk. My joy comes from being in circle with other humans who are curious, open-hearted, and interested in walking on this Earth in a good way. In 2025, I plan to offer all I am, all I know, and all I do.
For the first time, I will be offering year-long classes for those committed to their healing journeys. These circles are for everyone interested in connecting and creating a better life.
Igniting Spirit ~ 2025
In 2024, I listened deeply to my soul and the Earth for help with my own personal healing and dismemberment, as well as what to offer my family and the community at large. Knowing deep within that being seen, heard, included, and loved are essential human needs, I began a Membership Circle, a Healers Circle, a Podcast, scheduled classes and Ceremonies, and continued to listen.
So many things have shifted in my life, and I continue to listen. I am in a place of “I don’t know…” which is a powerful place of magic and transformation. And, I am not here alone. I feel so many of you here with me. I honor your journeys and your process, and am blessed to be in circle and ceremony with you.
Now as 2025 approaches, I desire to create more opportunities, ceremonies, and circles to share our open hearts, kindness, respect, and compassion.
Sacred Circle for Members
Igniting Healing for Ourselves and our Planet
I am answering the call with opportunities to gather together and experience one another’s stories, go deep into meditation, experience neutrality, initiations and presence that will help us heal, and provide the shift our home, the Earth, requires to find balance and wholeness.
My intention is that these gatherings be organic and collaborative
The monthly Membership fee is $36 per month, and includes three monthly circles:
First Sunday of each month at 7am Pacific Time

TO Contact Karen or to SCHEDULE A SESSION
Deeply invested in healing and personal growth, I gently guide people toward their own innate health and happiness through energy healing, coaching, education, and ceremony. My intention is to assist you in finding your soul’s path, your True Self, your source of power and freedom. I offer this with deep gratitude to my teachers, Spirit guides, and the native healers and communities who have been so generous with their teachings, healing, and ceremonies. It would be an honor to work with you on your healing journey. Blessings on you, Karen
Kind Words from Colleagues, Clients, and Students
Hi Karen, I just wanted to share with you how much people are sharing with me… how much they LOVE you! Almost everyone I speak with that has heard a podcast, or attended a ZOOM event raves about you, your wisdom, and even the sound of your voice. The impression you make on these people is life changing (their words). We all appreciate you so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!
Big Love, Christine Kohlmeier, Panthera Energy Medicine, Vancouver, Washington
Hi Karen! For all the challenges and craziness that life offers, I am so glad to be here, to be me, in this time. I’m so glad that you are you, and that our community is learning how to change the world from the inside out. There is a lot more to do! And we’ll do it! Because it’s what we came to do ⚡️ I’m excited for it 🎶
💗💗💗 Tracy McFarland, Singer/Songwriter, Portland, Oregon
Love you! I am so grateful for your continued teaching and servitude. You are truly a goddess in disguise as a human. Thank you for making this place a sacred holy place for all of us to purge and absorb our humanist qualities over the years. I and we are truly blessed by your existence! Yes, truly blessed.
Thank you, Dave Andersen, Andersen Electric, Portland, Oregon
Thank you, beloved friend, mentor, and teacher, for helping me identify a moment as an adult when I was in my Truth. I am ready. I trust. I am returning to my Truth. Thank you for the support, Karen. Thank you.
~ Tori Eaton, Forest Grove, Oregon
Hi Karen. My work with you has been so instrumental in helping me navigate my spiritual path. You've inspired me with the way you walk the talk and I value every bit of insight and wisdom you've shared with me along the way. Thank you for being there when I most needed an example of what it means to follow your heart and live in your truth!
Ever grateful, Mari Saint-Pierre
