The Healing Core | We Recommend

The Healing Core does not stand alone; we are part of the larger community of those teaching and supporting the healing arts professional and micro businesses. We continue the legacy of those who have taught us and we offer the following recommendations to honor that reality:

Care and Feeding of the Energetic Core: Karen Custer was our first energetic teacher and we still go back to her over and over for advice, directions, and encouragement.

Barbara Brennan School of Healing: Barbara is one of the leading lights in the energetic healing community. Full of laughter and light herself, her books and training courses are some of our favorite resources as well.

Edgar Cayce Association for Research & Enlightenment: based in Virginia Beach, VA this institute continues the work of Edgar Cayce, an early 20th century teacher and master. Their lectures, courses, and workshops are world-renowned.

Life Essences: We have been involved with Ben Risby-Jones, his products for enlightenment and self-mastery, and his courses and workshops. Kelly is even co-authoring a book with Ben! The Healing Core sponsors his workshops and healing sessions when he is in DC every year.

Potomac Massage Training Institute: our alma mater and still, we believe, one of the finest massage therapy training programs on the east coast, if not in the United States.

Have Hands, Will Travel: Kelly's blog on thinking about business with the heart of a healer.

The Educated Heart: one of the most well-respected books on the ethics of the healing arts, especially for massage therapists. We recommend this book for being well-written, easy to understand, and absolutely true to the reality of being a healing arts professional.

The One Page Business Plan: The book that started Kelly on the path to good business practices. You really can create a one-page business plan that will move you productively through your year.
