She is the progeny of when East meets West, when Yin meets Yang. An avid lover of life and life’s forever student, Wei “Amy” Lu has been experimenting and refining the art of achieving peace and balance through her unique understanding of Eastern philosophy and Western learnings.

At the age of thirteen, Wei and her family were among the first group of immigrants allowed to emigrate from Communist China on its new “Open Door” policy of the 1980’s. Wei’s parents were college professors who gained the rare opportunity of coming to the United States to further their higher education. Life was difficult, at first, with the entire family living on an eight-hundred-dollar student stipend, as well as facing an incredible language barrier and culture shock. These difficulties, however, did not deter the eighth grader as she treasured the blessing of being in the “land of opportunity.” In school, she adopted her American name “Amy” given by her ESL teacher. Amy studied diligently and learned the English language in three short months. As she advanced in school, she never forgot to be grateful for everything she had been given and always strove to do her best. She finished at the top of her graduating class and earned a full scholarship to Texas Tech University. After receiving a BS degree in Electrical Engineering, Amy worked for Motorola as an RF design Engineer for cell phone base stations. She is currently the senior product manager for an inorganic chemical company.

Amy has been married for 23 years; she and her husband live in the DFW area and are the proud parents of two amazing young men.

In her spare time, Amy enjoys learning modern medicine and traditional holistic healing. She has completed all pre-med classes at a local college. She is learning the Chinese traditional medicine of meridians and acupressure techniques as a complimentary therapy to promoting the body’s natural healing mechanisms. She is currently a certified Reiki practitioner. As a scientist and engineer, Amy finds the body’s subtle energy system of health and well-being both intriguing and powerful. Her YouTube channel “Mother Healer” is dedicated to sharing with others her knowledge of holistic healing insights.

Through the years, Amy has realized her purpose in life is to “combine the best of East and West.” Her unique understanding and experiences from both traditional Asian and modern Western cultures are invaluable to establishing her world view. She proposes that the key to achieving satisfactory life experience is through the “Four Pillars of Joy and Freedom,” which are the pillars of Compassion, Forgiveness, Gratitude, and Love.

In many ways, Amy is the embodiment of the remarkable union of opposite, yet complimentary forces: East and West; modern and traditional; Yin and Yang; solid science and intangible energy. She looks forward to sharing her knowledge and her light with others, as we are all ONE
