Guest: Rachael Johnson

Jim and Jennifer welcome Rachael Johnson to the show.  Rachael began exploring healing arts and meditation in 2003, after a series of intense and transformational life events. 

She is a practitioner of the Karma Kagyu and Nyingmapa Nyagpa schools of Tibetan Buddhism, and an apprentice of the esoteric Taoist practices of the KUNLUN® System through Ching Fung Dao Shr, Max Christensen.

Rachael's early years were blessed by living in the solitude of rural Southern California. Rather than attending school, she had the opportunity to discover the voice and rhythms of nature through nearly uninterrupted immersion. Her time spent in trees and wandering the creek beds was a far higher education than some may imagine.

While attending college at New York University, Rachael became deeply committed to her spiritual awakening, being initiated onto her path through a series powerful dreams and ego-shattering experiences. During this time she delved into the art of sound healing by playing weekly concerts with the Himalayan Voices at Alex Grey's Chapel of Sacred Mirrors (COSM). She has been performing since 2005, and has played at the New York City Museum of Water, the Celebration of Oneness in Los Angeles, and at various yoga studios and hot springs around the country.

Rachael currently has a private healing practice in Leucadia, CA, and holds weekly KUNLUN classes in the San Diego area at www.meetup.com/kunlunSD/.
