Are you interested in on-line learning?

Tami Briggs and Musical Reflections have partnered with the Daily OM to offer “Healing Harp Meditations.” It is a six-week on-line course designed to promote feelings of deep relaxation and peace, and to facilitate life reflection and review.

Each week, you will receive an e-mail that includes: 1) a guided meditation co-created by Barb Thune Schommer, registered nurse and Healing Touch instructor, and Tami Briggs, therapeutic harpist, 2) contemplative exercises, 3) practical applications, 4) reflection with healing music, 5) affirmations, and 6) homework.

I recently completed coursework from the “Beyond Surgery Program.” After attending the 18 hours of required training, I am now a Surgery Coach Practitioner.

I am networking to locate three surgery patients that I can coach. Once I have completed this, as well as documenting these experiences, I will be a Certified Surgery Coach through the American Holistic Nurses Association.

The “Beyond Surgery Program” has its roots in the following modalities:

• Healing Touch
• Anxiety Release Technique^®
• HeartMath^®
• Breathing exercises and other stress reduction techniques
• Guided Imagery

And I’m excited about the possibilities of incorporating Harp Therapy and the BioMat as I work with patients who are undergoing surgery (or any medical procedure). I will keep you posted (through this blog) on my progress with this new, heart-felt work…
