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.

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, have open hearts, and a desire to walk on this Earth in a good way. I offer all that I am, all that I know, and all that I do.

Igniting Spirit ~ 2026

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.

In 2025, like many of you, I was faced by major life challenges—physically, emotionally, mentally, and physically. I listened, and I am still listening. I healed, and I am still healing.

I can’t say that I know what the next chapter of my life will bring. I am still in a place of deep listening and the powerful, magical place of “I don’t know.” The transformation and healing continue.

This world can be a confusing and challenging place. And a beautiful, wondrous, miraculous experience. We are not 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.

Workshops

This year, I have created three primary offerings to accompany my Member Circle. The Beautiful Souls who joined me for the 2025 Igniting the Gifts of Being Human class taught me so much about what people desire to learn/remember, and the importance of listening and connecting to one another while in circle. I have created a new approach and new content for the 2026 version of this class, focusing on Mind, Body, and Soul/Spirit.

I also heard the call for a return of the Sacred Geometry teachings, as well as the Sacred Medicine Wheel. I offer each of these classes with a sliding scale to assist with the monthly offerings. Click on the links below to learn more.

Starting in January

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  

Our circles provide a touchstone and opportunity to sit in circle with other open-hearted humans and Lightworkers. This circle has brought countless gifts and healing to me… I have deep and profound gratitude for each of you who have joined. I have learned so much, and your support means the world to me.

For those looking for a way to connect, or are interested in supporting my work and my life… please consider joining us!

The monthly Membership fee is $36 per month, and includes three monthly circles. (There is an opportunity to meet up to three times each month. The schedule has been created to provide options for you to attend when convenient.)  

  • Second Sunday of each month at 8am Pacific Time

  • Third Thursday of each month at 5pm Pacific Time

  • Last Friday of each month at 11am Pacific Time

These circles will consist of a mix of guided meditations, journeys, teachings, sharing, and healing.

Sessions

Please take a look at my Discounted Session Packages. The content of these sessions are determined by you, me, and our Allies.

I am 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 Authentic Self, your source of power and freedom. It would be an honor to work with you on your healing journey.

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
