I often get asked if my work is the same as Reiki, Sound Healing, Breathwork, Pranic Healing, Theta Healing, QHHT, Quantum Healing or Energy Medicine.

A QET session could be classed as a kind of sound healing, though those who have experienced it usually report that sound healing has more of a subtle and relaxing effect, where as Resonance Healings, Journeys and Meditations offer a more intensive and profound experience. It has also been described as similar to breathwork, though unlike breathwork, it requires no bodily effort to achieve expanded states of consciousness.

I would describe the main difference between QET sessions and other modalities as this: In other modalities there is a deliberate transfer of energy from a healer (or a divine source that is channeled through the healer), to their client.

Alternatively, according to the philosophy of Resonance, ‘Source’ energy is not separate from either party. It is everywhere, animating all. The QET practitioner works through the senses with sound and energy, movement and touch, language and symbology, and more, to resonate with the energies of the participant’s cognitive field. A mirroring takes place, an echo, which amplifies the ‘music’ that is asking to be heard. This amplification is a ‘waking up’ of the client’s own resonant frequencies, which animates energy within the client’s own space leading to a deep sensory experience rather than just a passive receiving of energy.

A QET session is experienced through the senses, of which there are many more than five. It could be experienced as visions, sounds, music and words, feel touch and presence, experience movement or stillness, and other bodily sensations such as temperature changes, trembling, energetic release, strong emotions, deep memories, profound insights, and realisations.

Mindfulness, as awareness or Sati, comprises an integral part of the Buddhist philosophy of Being. The foundations of sati are often taught in the context of meditations that require deliberate awareness and attention. In the West, practitioners have taken some of the philosophies and practices of sati to develop Mindfulness Meditation. We often understand Mindfulness Meditation as a still, silent practice of focusing one’s attention on the present moment, while concentrating on bodily postures and the breath.

Whether true at its core or not, many people I’ve come across over the years in my sessions view Mindfulness Meditation as a kind of challenge, in that one must exert some kind of effort to avoid exerting any effort, to still the mind and the body.

A QET session is about relationship – a co-creative experience, with the philosophy that nothing exists in isolation from anything else. Everything is in connection. Creation cannot happen without the destruction of the nothing that preceded it, for example.

Thus, a QET session requires neither silence, stillness nor emptying of the mind or letting go of thoughts, and while it may bring about heightened awareness and profound insights, it does not call for any effort by the practitioner or parties involved to achieve any ‘non-doing’, or ‘non-thinking’ – it’s about trusting our senses, being one with the experience and whole -heartedly letting it take us on a journey of healing and discovery.

As QET session is a co-creative experience it may appear ‘guided’, however the question is, who is guiding whom? During a QET experience, the facilitator facilitates the practice of everyone else in the room. Everyone is a practitioner and everyone contributes to the experience. Again, it works on the principle of Resonance. Everyone comes into sync, for the period of the meditation, resonating and harmonising with each other’s inner song, to create beautiful music together which is experienced synaesthetically, through the senses as light, images, sound, touch, memories, or even as new realisations, shifts in perception and expanded awareness.

The beauty of my work is that, while the practice and theory mirrors many of the deeper philosophies of ancient spiritual traditions, such as yoga, it does not draw from these, per se. There are no gurus to follow and no rules to obey. QET belongs to every being, arising as a state of consciousness that facilitates one’s own journey of learning, understanding and expanded awareness.

QET involves a set of principles and practices that I have refined through my work in a diversity of traditional and modern fields, which span the globe. These principles are underpinned by my PhD research work in Consciousness Studies and has evolved through my close collaborative work with the founder of the innerdance process (also Inner Dance), Pi Villaraza, over the last seven years (since 2015). QET shares some philosophies and foundational theories with innerdance, especially those which have arisen through my ongoing shared exploration of consciousness with Pi.

I view the philosophy of Resonance as underpinning most spiritual practices, from the ancient traditions to New Age Spirituality. For me, it actually provides a foundation for my life in every sense, from the everyday to the mystical. Resonance is our basis for empathy, which is part of our humanity, in relationship with all else. It is through relationship that we learn and grow. It is through relationship that we live. And when we can behold the harmony that exists between that which we define as ourself and that which we define as other, we come to truly understand how All is One / everything is connected. A perfect symphony.

QET takes this underpinning theory a few steps further, to expand our conscious awareness of the everyday. If we can feel empathy for another (be it a person, an animal or some other sentient or non-sentient being), then we can practice Quantum Empathy. We can deepen this to become aware of anything and everything we wish to, in relationship with the whole.

We can practice QET regularly, similar to a yoga or meditation practice. The more one practices resonance, the more expanded our awareness can become. It can be done as a formal practice, with a facilitator like myself, or on your own. It can also become a way of perceiving the world and oneself. Always practising (or it’s really simply always acknowledging) resonance.

It is a beautiful way to live, and this way we see the love, the beauty in everything.

I love to work with individuals, businesses and organisations to co-create and share QET experiences.

For individuals

A QET session can be a profound, calming and insightful experience for all genders and ages to find meaning, promote self acceptance, and to feel whole, held and free.

Over my time of co-creating and facilitating QET experiences, I’ve seen it used for a range of purposes to create more healthy, holistic, abundant and prosperous lives, including:

• Personal or professional development
• Promotion of altered state of consciousness to invite deep insight and understanding
• Healing wounds from this lifetime or lifetimes past
• Working with women in the mother and child space
• Strengthening bonds between family members
• Intergenerational healing
• Helping women connect with their children whether or not they have yet arrived in physical form

For businesses and organisations

There are so many ways we can work in QET, to enhance businesses and organisations. From helping teams brainstorm new ideas and find solutions to complex problems, to promoting teamwork, enhancing wellbeing and creating cultural change, the potentialities are limitless. Co-created group programs and meditations are ideal for this purpose, or I can work with you or your team at an individual level.

When it comes to businesses and organisations, I love to work with government, community, events and the ‘back to Earth’ space. I am closely connected with ecological and spiritual communities in Asia and appreciate the sacred activism of this way of life.

I love co-creating magic and have developed a range of one hour, half day and multi-day QET immersions throughout Australia and overseas. These include:

• Soul Explorations Series
• Healing and Awakenings Series
• Goddess Awakening: A Journey of Rebirth and Transformation
• Journey to the Inner Heart Series
• ‘Decolonising Consciousness’, part of the One World Bearing Witness Global Peace Vigil
• ‘Celebrations of Consciousness’ three-week Convergence, Thailand
• ‘WE ARE HERE’ two-day Immersion, Thailand
• ‘Awakening the Dreamer’ Symposium, Singapore
• Sacred Activism in Senegal, Dakar, Senegal

I have also created regular weekly resonance meditation sessions and custom programs for Government departments and corporate teams to promote general health and wellbeing, team building, idea generation and cultural evolution. Contact me to find out more about co-creating a custom experience.

Yes! I often find that once people have a dose of Qunatm Empathy, they are eager to understand more.

I will offer two annual practitioner training sessions:

1. How to facilitate QET Journeys for groups
2. How to offer QET sessions for individuals

Add yourself to my mailing list to be notified of the next training opportunity or fill out my contact form to express your interest.

Just like Mindfulness, beyond the meditation, Quantum Empathy is a way of living and perceiving the world. Its core is to help every individual wake up to their own power, strength and beauty. To help them hear their own inner song and harmonising their life with it.

With this in mind, you can start your path to becoming a practitioner today by learning the art of Quantum Empathy into your own daily life, with my QET Package or by joining my mailing list to start practicing with my free monthly meditations. We start to become practitioners when we start to practice ourselves!
