Her Story

Karen has a diverse background that combines science, arts, and metaphysics. From birth, she accompanied her parents as they frequented the Native American Indian dances of the Yaqui, Hopi, Navajo, Zuni, Apache, Tarahumara, and various Mexican indigenous tribes. She spent her first decade traveling throughout Mexico and the United States instead of attending public school while her parents collected snakes and native seeds. 

Karen was exposed to Transcendental Meditation at age five. She remembers sitting on a rock and waiting for her magic word to come. She explored Raja Yoga, Nicherin Shosho Buddhism, Evangelical Christianity, Astrology, American Indian Ceremony, and other mind-expanding disciplines. She has traveled to sacred sites worldwide, including Bali, Uxmal, and Uluru, and values the richness of Earth’s beauty.

She weaves her intuition, knowledge, and experience together, bringing peace and grounding to each sound healing.
