Who AM I?

Amanda Wood! I'm a native Forestvillain with a Rogue streak in my hair AND my manner of living.  I've got a penchant for world travel, backroads, amazing food and submerging in natural bodies of water. I studied World History, am a licensed Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator, have worked in nonprofit development domestically and abroad, and have spent a decade working with teenagers in foster care. 

​

2020 set me on a home-bound trajectory that led me to studying Western Herbalism and two RAPIDLY EFFECTIVE and HIGHLY BADASS healing modalities: ERT & EFT Tapping.

What's in an ACRONYM?

​

ERT – In the works of Pat Jackman, who I studied with 2022-2023,  "Emotional Release Therapy is a type of hands on body work that is a creative synthesis of specific bodywork and Inner Child work. Points on the body are activated and trapped emotions like fear, anger, grief, or any feeling that was held because it was not safe or allowed, are given an opportunity to express. The body has hundreds of points/doorways that have become ‘clogged’ over the years. With breath, opening, and Inner Child work, there is an invitation to the channels of the body to clear stagnant energy. When opened, memories can resurface, emotions can move, and we can learn to embrace the wounded parts of ourselves in order to be who we are meant to be – peaceful loving beings."
