Join us for a trip from Peru to Costa Rica with our guest, Teri Nehring.

Teri has been a licensed therapist for over 35 years and has trained in many complementary alternative and holistic modalities. She immersed herself in learning Reiki, Breathwork, Brainspotting and the shamanic arts. It is her passion to weave their wisdom, teachings and practices into her therapeutic work.

Her journey led her to Peru 15 years ago to find and work with authentic indigenous masters of living energy throughout the Andes and the Rain Forest. She traveled for numerous years in her quest to advance her own knowledge and understanding of how to work with energy and plant medicine. She now leads several groups a year to Peru and hosts groups in Costa Rica to share in ancestral wisdom and practices. 

Teri currently resides in Costa Rica with her husband Pol and four furry children. She and Pol feel blessed to own and operate Villa Inti Wasi (House of the Sun).  A catalyst and retreat center where all can feel welcomed, safe, and loved while in the process of their own evolution and transformation. 

In this episode, Teri Nehring discusses her experiences of understanding and working with energy, and highlights her connection to Peru and the spiritual teachings she has received there. Teri understands her mission has been to be a bridge with the shaman brothers she shares about in the podcast. She is helping people connect to spread the word that healing skills can be learned and taught. She also recounts some of the life-changing moments she has experienced, all of which have led her to embrace a life of less stress and more creativity in Costa Rica. 

Teri and Cherie want you to know there is a class being taught in February to learn more about working with energy. Visit https://livinginnerhappiness.com/
