WELCOME TO HEALTH FLOWS AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST!

As 2023 clicks along and the days are getting brighter and longer it feels like the time of hibernation will end soon and life will invite us to me more active again :) At the same time self care will remain as important as always. That's why you will always receive at least a couple of pointers along with a treatment how you could best support yourself at home on a regular basis, should you wish to do so. By the way, my tabs suggest all the different modalities that I am offering are separate options; this is of course true in some way as I trained in each healing art separately. However, it has proven most beneficial for my clients when I  draw from my tool kit whatever will be most supportive for them, so please expect a treatment from me that is interdisciplinary as well as holistic. And I will give away a little secret: a wide selection of tuning forks, each with their own 'personality' and vibrational energy often provide a sensory and energetic revelation to clients at Health Flows. They have become the latest and most warmly embraced supporters in my clients' healing journey. - Ready to give it a try?

With regards to classes, none are planned as of yet, but there is currently some flexibility to set up a custom class should you, together with a few friends, wish to initiate one. Simply get in touch with me and we can make it happen!

I decided to keep it short an sweet this time :)

Looking forward to connecting with you either in person or energetically (with help of technology, which could be an old fashioned land line phone, by the way)

Resonating greetings to you,

Jolanda

 HAPPY 2023 AND BEST WISHES FOR THE YEAR OF THE WATER RABBIT!

SPECIAL OFFER for treatments between January 10 and February 10 2023: TWO FOR ONE :)

As we have already entered into a 7 year (2+0+2+3 =7), which numerologically opens the door to spiritual awareness, intuition and awakening a bit wider and enables more introspection and self-reflection at the same time, we are also fast approaching the Year of the Water Rabbit, which starts according the the lunar calendar on January 22 2023. We might notice a change in pace when transitioning from the year of the tiger to the year of the rabbit and possibly experience a period of adjustment until we fully tune into our 'rabbit instincts'. Having water quality and yin energy coincide with the rabbit, we will gravitate towards fluidity, relaxation, quietness and contemplation as well as nurturing of the body and the soul. 

The nurturing of body and soul is where the services Health Flows has to offer might be very helpful. I am always happy to give individual treatments, whether in person or remotely. As you can see from the announcement above, I decided to celebrate this special time with a special offer, where the price of one treatment buys you the enjoyment of two...

I also love teaching Qigong and Jin Shin Jyutsu self care! However, my intuition told me to wait for signs as to location and day and time for such classes. Should two to three people wish to initiate a class, I would take that as a clear sign and find a way to cater to that wish :) If you would like to inquire about something and get more information, I'll be happy to do my best to answer any questions you might have.

One more element that is connected with yin and softer energies is the moon. I enjoyed reading that in Asia there is talk of the rabbit in the moon, a shape that I had always, since I was a little kid, seen in the moon many years before anyone was able to help me to see the 'man in the moon'. Next time we have a full moon, why don't you look for the rabbit in it?

With heart centred best wishes for these times of transition into softness and introspection to you all.

Warmest regards,

Jolanda

 Dear holistic friends, old and new,

as the Holiday Season is fast approaching many of us feel the need to slow down and heed the advice of the motto "less is more". Therefore, there will be less classes or workshops offered at Health Flows, even though some fellow humans could really use some gentle, meditative and at the same time playful Qigong exercises in their lives... I would just like to point out that if you are one of those people who feels called to make space for that kind of Qigong practice in their life and have a little initiative, just drum up two or more like-minded friends as well as a venue and you can arrange for a custom made class. The same applies for the other classes that are currently available at Health Flows. (Should you just come up with interested participants, I might be able to get creative regarding a venue.)

Then there is the possibility to receive individual treatments, which always contain a suggestion or two for self care or self help at home. I strive to empower my clients and give them tools so that they will need to see me less. Depending on your personality type, that might just work for you...

Lastly, I feel I owe it to you to let you know that a series of intensive treatments can be truly life changing. I am currently able to offer these, which is not always the case due to time constraints. In person treatments are always my preferred choice, when possible, however, during the past two and a half years I have learned to appreciate the potency of distance or remote treatments, which proved to be a viable and extremely helpful alternative to no treatments at all. Please don't be shy to ask me about these, as I have yet to do a write up regarding this option on my website.

My heartfelt wishes for lots of love and light in your life as well as encouragement for a keen eye to notice them in many places where the light might be reduced to a tiny glimmer and love might be wearing a gown you don't expect!

Namaste! Aloha! ....

Warm greetings go out to you :)

 Welcome to the Website of Health Flows this fall!

As we leave the fall equinox behind and move fast towards Michealmas and Thanksgiving, I would like to let you know that individual treatments are being booked more regularly and I advise to reach out a week or two beforehand in order not to be disappointed. Sometimes treatments on short notice may still be possible, though...

Regarding the classes Health Flows is offering, I would like to apologize for a typo in the flyer for Easy Hands-On Self Care and to also let you know that prorated fees will be applied to the flat rate until Thanksgiving to accommodate late joiners. The flyer should have read $90.00 flat rate (for all 9 weeks) and the flat rate starting September 27 or 29 will be $80.00, starting Oct. 4 or 6 it will be only $ 70.00 and satrting October  18 or later it will be and stay $60.00

Please, also note that the week after Thanksgiving two back to back classes will be offered on Mondays between 9 and 11am: Playful Qigong - gentle moving meditation, followed by Ho'oponopono and Sound Healing (more details on the classes tab).

Hoping to see you either in one of the classes or in the practice soon.

With light and warmth,

Jolanda

 Hello, old friends and new ones,

Health Flows will still offer individual treatments during this summer (2022), however, there will be individual weeks where there will be pause in the offering of services, due to absence for vacation purposes as well as continued education.

Classes will not be offered during the summer. Please, do reach out and let me know your interests as well as wishes for days and times. so that I can consider them when planning the fall schedule. So far I am most likely offering a Jin Shin Jyutsu self care evening on a weekday night, starting mid September and ending late November. Suggestions for a location as well as a desired day and time for a possible Qigong class are very welcome! The Hub in Cowichan Station might be an ideal venue in my eyes; now I need 2 or 3 committed participants to make it feasible for me to initiate a room rental... :)

In late August we are planning on being at the Cobble Hill Fair with our Voxxlife socks, insoles and other wearable technology to support and enhance health and wellbeing.

Hope to you see you there!

Qifull greetings :)

 HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

There is so much to be grateful for after another nine months of uncertainty around Covid 19, fires and other, more individualized challenges. The practice of Health Flows experienced wonderful healing adventures during the first 6 months of 2021with the regular as well as occasional clients in Kelowna. Tuning forks were often a welcome contribution to the hands on modalities, intuitive experiences and new awarenesses arose during the sessions...

Then Health Flows had to pause offering services for three months while being packed up in Kelowna and being moved to the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. All the crystal bowls arrived safely in Cobble Hill, but very soon it became evident that an in-home practice is not feasible at our new house which is significantly smaller than the one we left behind. After operating for 5.5 years in Magic Estates in Kelowna, a new stage and a new start is now awaiting us! It looks like the Sol Centre in Duncan, next to the Community Farm Store, will be the new home to the services of Health Flows. Thank you, Nicolette, for welcoming us! 

On Friday, October 15 at 7pm there will be an opportunity to join an experiential presentation:

Introducing Holistic Possibilities for self care with Qigong, Jin Shin Jyutsu, Sound Healing, Foot Reflexology and Access Bars (5380 Trans Canada Hwy, Duncan), free of charge, physical distancing will be observed.

In celebration of Thanksgiving, any treatments booked during the month of October will benefit from the THANKSGIVING SPECIAL: BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE. Let's celebrate together! I look forward to working with you, as I understand holistic treatments to be co-creations between client and practitioner.

Any future classes as well as treatment days and times will be as tailor-made as possible after hearing the needs of those who come to the introductory evening on October 15. 

In joyful anticipation of meeting you,

Jolanda
