Pamela Hunter

(Raindrop Technique)
faqline

Raindrop Technique, Licensed Spiritual Healer, Registered Yoga Instructor, Reflexology, Reiki

 

Currently studying for Clinical Certification in Aromatherapy with the Institute of Spiritual Healing & Aromatherapy

 

Pamela has been practicing yoga since 1998, teaching yoga since 2000 and was introduced to Young Living Essential Oils in 2003 from the yoga studio’s massage therapist. Using YLEO first for a chest cold, she immediately introduced them to her asthmatic, special needs 7-year old son. Within the first two months of using Raven and RC essential oils from Young Living, her son’s asthma was healed with him no longer needing pharmaceutical medication. This began her love for Young Living and her journey to share them with the world. By the way, her son has healed in all ways using YLEO and various other holistic wellness, no longer having special needs. The entire family has been pharmaceutical free since 2003!

 

Raindrop Technique was introduced and taught to Pamela in 2004, but it became close to Pamela’s heart after studying with Gary Young in Ecuador in 2008, then bringing Artemis to the States later that year and continuing education with both Gary Young and Catherine Garro in 2009 & 2010. Currently, Pamela is the first to be Certified at Level 3 for RAA in the United States.

 

Pamela educates about YLEO monthly holding Essential Oil Education Evenings and SCENT-sational Wellness Sessions combining yoga, meditation, and oils at Universal Spirit Yoga in Naperville, IL.
