 A message from Joan Maute:

Aloha, and welcome! E Komo Mai!

From a lifetime of spiritual exploration, world travel, and working in the Healing Arts, I eventually discovered my true calling as a teacher of Reiki. I've been a lifelong teacher and coach of other skills, but teaching Reiki is truly my purpose and passion in this life. All of my past experiences have molded me into the teacher and mentor I wished I’d had many years ago, and I'm very happy to be able to share with my students the essence of my accumulated knowledge and wisdom so they don't have to spend decades of searching and learning as I did.

Life is an interesting evolution of one thing leading into another that takes us in unexpected directions. As a surfer from the Big Island of Hawaii, I never could have guessed that my fitness trainer background would lead me to become a massage therapist, which would then lead me to Reiki and becoming a Reiki Master Practitioner, and then an ICRT Licensed Reiki Master Teacher. Nor did I ever imagine that I'd end up traveling to different parts of the US and other countries, teaching Reiki to others!

I love teaching Reiki and bring to my classes a combination of excellent training, real-life experience, hard-earned wisdom, Love, Compassion, Humor, and Grace. Because of my background, my classes are taught in a relaxed “Hawaiian style.” But despite the relaxed style, my students leave their training feeling confident with their new skills, empowered and excited, ready to go out into the world to share their knowledge. After completing their classes, I continue to offer support for their well-being and success in whatever way they choose to use Reiki, whether professionally or for home use.

All my classes are infused with the warmth and sacredness of the Aloha Spirit, regardless of where they are being taught in-person or online.

DEAN MCMURRAY
THE MILITARY MEDIUM
Dean McMurray—“The Military Medium”— is an
internationally acclaimed psychic, medium, healer,
dowser and ordained minister. His story so powerful
and so authentic, is unlike any other psychic medium
out there, and it’s why people from all across the
globe are drawn to him for readings and personal
guidance. So what’s his story... why is he the psychic
so much trust?
DEAN'S STORY
Spending most of his childhood in northern Minnesota,
Dean developed a deep love for nature and his country.
That love of country inspired him to enlist and serve 24
years in the United States armed forces. Dean’s service
brought him overseas on several occasions, the last of
which awakened his psychic abilities and set him on a
new path in life... a new mission with new marching
orders.
After returning from his last overseas tour, Dean’s
deceased grandmother visited him. She had a
message for him: you are a medium, Dean, and it’s time
to get to work. There were no words. No sound. But the
message was as clear as any he’d ever heard. It came
straight from his grandmother’s immortal heart to his
own.
