Laurie Gates
Laurie Gates is an energy healer and artist. She consults with Wabi Sabi in Chicago and directs the Ahimsa project, a collaboration of people and small businesses healing the Earth through themselves.
She guides individuals holistically to help them recover from trauma and illness, and guides small businesses through eco-design. A lifetime yogi and Reiki master, she does energy work as part of her practice. Her artwork is the alchemy of this energy. Ahimsa art is designed to create peace.
Her work with ming + ming is Pet Meditation - Energy work with animals. Laurie guides pet parents and their animals in moving energy and practicing meditation. These guided meditations include a round robin to discuss meditation experiences and progress, and are a community as well as a practice.
