A shamanic initiation through America’s dark underground

and into the multi-dimensional cosmos

 

         SILVER CITY, NM – Jean Eisenhower was recently certified as a Transpersonal Hypnotherapist™ - which means her work acknowledges more than body, mind and emotions, but also spirit.  In her consulting practice, she helps clients connect with their inner Wise Ones, past lives or other aspects of their infinite selves.  She also teaches skills for self-healing and exploring one’s own spiritual worlds.

    Twenty years ago, Eisenhower was a successful business consultant in Tucson, AZ, providing media relations and related services to environmental, social service and arts organizations, then later became an award-winning real estate agent.  In 1999, Eisenhower moved to an off-the-grid hermitage she’d built in the desert in 1994.  She’d been offered a six-figure salary in real estate, but she said, “I knew that riches to me would be free time and a window seat, so I took the window seat.  Besides, something had called me to my hermitage.”

    In the desert, Eisenhower experienced years of mystical events.  “At first I didn’t know what to think.  I shared them with a girlfriend who was experiencing similar events and who one day said, ‘Jean, I think we’re undergoing shamanic initiations.’  I was shocked for a second, then everything made sense.  I was no longer disturbed about the strangeness, and the journey went deeper.”

    Eisenhower has studied healing and counseling and has been certified in two healing modalities, but says that she rarely “goes by the book.”  Instead, she explains, some calm, inner wisdom comes forth and she follows that guidance.  Her very first client told her that her session was the best of an entire lifetime of therapy.  “I wouldn’t be doing this without the feedback I’ve gotten,” Eisenhower says.

    Another qualification for Eisenhower’s practice is having survived her own dark night of the soul.  “Those dark nights can be almost unendurable,” she says, “yet they are important and powerful times.  Ancient and contemporary spiritual texts describe being stripped down to our very souls, and while that might sound promising, it feels like nothing good when you’re in the midst of it.  So I’m happy to make myself available to people who’ll appreciate that I’ve been where they might be.

    “Now that I look back, I realize I was having spiritual experiences ever since I was a young child.  I’d just been taught they were imaginary and I should forget them.  But now they’re meaningful.  I believe we all have a lot we need to remember and reconnect to.”
