About Me

Aneta Sunara

My passion is to empower people to being able to help themselves, and to educate them how to be more independent with maintaining their health and wellbeing in body, mind and soul.

From my own experience with health issues over the years I found that the most important thing was to not feel helpless, to have tools that I can use to help myself.

Even if it is just a small thing that I can do, I already feel better for it. 
Working with my clients I always give them suggestions, tools and ideas what they can do at home to keep the effect of any treatment going and how they can maintain wellbeing themselves. Of course whether they actually do any of it is their responsibility. 

My approach is holistic, therefore I will not only focus on the issue but gather an overview of work and life circumstances as they play an important role in wellbeing.

 

Of course, I use all the knowledge that I have gained over the years, but I also use my intuition. When choosing oils or crystals for clients I let my intuition speak first and then check with my rational brain.
While doing a massage, I let myself be led by what I find with the client's body, what parts need more work and will adapt the treatment accordingly.

For crystal healing sessions I open up my perception more. My channel of perception explained through the definition of clairs, is mostly what would be considered clairsentient and claircognizant. Therefore, during a crystal healing session it can happen that I get messages for the client, which I usually will relay to them if it's appropriate. The information will often be for the client, sometimes though it can be just for me to understand the situation better.

 

I have been working with clients in 1-to-1 and group settings since 2008.

In treatments/sessions I always use all my combined skills and knowledge that I have gained over the years.

 

About my professional background:
My original professional background was pharmacy, I have worked for 14 years at university, in pharmacies and in the pharmaceutical industry on clinical trials. Having had a long-standing interest in holistic approach to health, over the years I have trained and worked with various complementary healing methods (Shamanic Healing, Singing Bowls, Chakra Balance, Numerology, Crystals, etc). After recovering from a major illness (Thyroid Cancer), I knew I had to change my work environment.
I re-trained as Trainer in Adult Education and worked in the area of training for a few years.

Eventually I studied Aromatherapy and Massage in beautiful New Zealand. By doing so I went full circle returning to my roots in pharmacy, as after all essential oils are essences made from plants which have plentiful therapeutic effects. 

The experience of my year in NZ has changed my life in so many ways.

 

As my love for learning didn't end with that, I have continued my studies with Aromatherapy, sound therapy, crystal healing, and latest have qualified as Certified Crystal Practitioner.

My life-long passion and joy with crystals and jewellery led me to jewellery-making in the past and finally to creating my jewellery business. It makes a beautiful link between crystal healing, craft and beauty.
