PATIENCE: dedication and commitment is the way to achieve wholeness in mind, body, and spirit.

THE PURPOSE

When you open the mind to a higher purpose in life, there is a letting go. We all tend to grasp tightly to how things should be in life. And what if you just let go? What would happen if you let go of your anger, sadness, and fear? Could you imagine what it would feel like to truly be free of the guilt that plagues your inner psyche?

What I have seen in my practice is that when clients let go, everything changes. The mind becomes calm and centered, the emotional body enters gratitude and joy, the physical body begins to heal, and the spiritual body begins to come through. The trick is just letting go. And that’s exactly what I help you do: let go of the stuck emotions inside your body.

See, your negative emotions create a cascade of chemistry in your body called deep sadness or anxiety, and you feel it in the whole being. When those stuck feelings or trauma disappear, a cascade of positive emotions and chemistry changes your entire perception of life. I love Mental and Emotional Release® because letting go and changing your whole life chemistry is easy. What you experience at Mountain Mind Tricks is letting go and surrendering to life, which will be the most life-changing experience you have ever had.

My Healing Journey

I spent fifteen years fighting wildfires across the western U.S. I had times on the fireline when I found inner peace and times when I found my fear controlling me. The constant anxiety, stress, and rushing that is the life of a wildland firefighter made my fight or flight response stay locked on full throttle. I always wanted a life without stress, risk, and being away from home for months. But I would never listen to the whispers of a different life because I made good money.

The stress of the job weighed heavy on me every day, and I finally had enough of a life with anxiety. I had fear turn my gut inside out whenever I went to work. Every time I drove down a narrow mountain road in a fire truck or got in a helicopter. I felt danger creeping up my spine every tree I cut, and I began to hate my job because of the fear. I remember getting into the helicopter to go to a fire one day and thinking I wish this would crash right now. That's when I knew it was time to change my career and that I needed help.

In 2015, my best friend and captain died suddenly while off duty at the age of 40. I think it was a stress-induced heart attack. This event shook me, and I began to question everything. I couldn't deal with the grief and loss and found myself drinking heavily for over a year. My mind and body were breaking down, and I was suffering in silence. So I began to do the only thing I knew how to do: meditation. After a few months of meditation, I had a massive awakening event that destroyed my entire notion of reality. I got to experience the oneness of the universe and speak to the consciousness behind all of creation. The voice instilled this deep sense of wanting to help others. I didn't know what this meant or how I could help anyone. I would never be the same, and my body couldn't handle the energy because I was not prepared or ready to experience this much divine energy. So, my physical health began to spiral out of control with mysterious symptoms. At this point, I had severe anxiety and didn't sleep for months on end.

At the end of my rope, I found Montana Family Acupuncture, and Brett Lewis saved my life. I remember walking into the clinic and thinking I was dying. I didn't know what was happening to me. He helped me navigate the profound life changes I was going through and balance the energies and emotions stuck in my body. After a year of acupuncture, Brett introduced me to Empowerment Inc., a company that provides training in Neuro-linguistic programming. I was immediately hooked, and at my basic training, I signed up for Master Practitioner training.

During Master Practitioner, I got to experience my first Breakthrough Session with Mental and Emotional Release® and release the five major emotions and limiting beliefs. When I opened my eyes after releasing fear, I could breathe again; I was in my body for the first time in years, and my heart rate went down. I was free of the deep fear that gripped me my entire life. That's the second I knew I had to do this work with other people.

I went back to wildland fire for a few years as I built my business, and I began working with severe cases of PTSD with my brothers and sisters in the fire community. My clients began healing miraculously and returning to the fireline with a solid mental health foundation. So, I kept building and eventually left Wildland Fire in 2020 to pursue Mountain Mind Tricks full-time.

When danger was around every corner during my fire career, I learned to see the true nature of life. When risk is present everything that is important is in the forefront of your mind. I have used what I have learned on the fireline and applied it to self help and spiritualism. My passion is to help other people be healthy, safe and happy. While my time as a wildland firefighter is a unique qualification. Below is a list of the techniques I use to help my clients.

My wildland firefighting experience brings a unique point of view to the mental health industry. I have faced true life-or-death situations and seen what is important in life when death is staring you in the face.

This experience gives me the authority to help guide you through your healing process during the hardest struggles in your life.
