Joanne Kaufman

Joanne has been a Nationally Certified Massage Therapist since 2001, with an Associates in Occupational Studies (AOS) from Boulder College of Massage Therapy. She has studied and received life-changing energy medicine work in various forms including Reiki, cranial sacral, Quantum Touch, and crystal patterning. Joanne is a Healing Touch Practitioner, continuing to study with  Awakening Healing Axis. She integrates HT and AHA’s powerful energetic foundations and techniques into her massage therapy work.
Joanne spent formative years in her 20s doing faith based nonviolence work in conflict zones with Christian Peacemaker Teams.  In this work, she noticed how simple presence and deep listening allowed local partners to create new possibilities in their personal and communities’ lives.  This foundation underlies her particular passion for empowering each person to own, embrace, and follow their own healing paths and talents in their own timing.  
This commitment to deep listening to support each Being’s song has surfaced an affinity with crystals, as well as participating in the expansion of deep Earth/Gaia healing.  Joanne is so delighted and honored to be part of the expansion of Awakening Healing Axis.

He has a powerful passion and skill in dowsing.  He mentors others in regaining their health and supporting their energy fields. He credits the Universal Creator along with the Angels and energetic Beings who show up when we are ready to facilitate a healing treatment.  Ben feels that the AHA workshops have changed him, and he has stepped up to help shift others through this apprenticeship.

Jon Skedsvold

It was during my deployments to Iraq(2003) and Kosovo(2009) that I started becoming keenly aware of the abundance of human suffering.  This caused me to begin asking the deeper questions in life. “Who am I” and “why am I here” . The curiosity I had as a child came flowing forward as I began to contemplate these questions. As it turns out, asking those questions led me on an inner quest that I could not have imagined. I began to read any book and talk to any person that seemed to lead me closer to the answers. I soon realized the answers I was seeking could only come from within!  True knowing would come with personal deep healing.  Delving into various healing modalities from others to support my personal healing proved invaluable.  In 2019 I began studying Healing Touch, completing the first 3 Levels of Healing Touch Program curriculum. In October of 2020 I attended my first Awakening Healing Axis workshop.  I was amazed at the deep level of healing being brought forth through these retreats, and the incredible frequencies being introduced. It is with great excitement that I bring the wisdom I am guided to bring forward and  to be a part of the AHA team and community. I  am humbled to have an opportunity to support this incredible work in the world.
