Energy Healing to Restore Balance and Wellness

Dr. Douglas Herman (‘o Lanakila)

Energy Healing Specialist

A Buddhist lay person and lifelong student of alternative healing, I have practiced Morrnah Simeona's Ho‘oponopono technique on myself for 40 years. As a scholar/educator with degrees in Comparative Religion and  Cultural Geography, I have focused on Indigenous and traditional approaches to being human and manifesting our individual and collective potentials.  Now I use the Emotion Code® and the Body Code® to help others release their blockages, obstacles, and imbalances to achieve better health, wellness, and Being. 

Ho‘ākaaka Energy Healing offers a holistic approach to releasing blockages that cause dis-ease and imbalance, and to opening pathways to healing and wellness. The practice is dedicated to empowering individuals and animals to effectively manifest their potentials.

Discover the transformative power of energy healing and embark on a journey towards holistic wellness!

About
Water Texture

Ho‘ākaaka

Lustrous Pearl

In Hawaiian  language, akaaka means clear, luminous, transparent, visible, manifest.  Ho‘ākaaka means to clarify, explain, render or make intelligible.  I have chosen this name because it represents the luminous nature of consciousness, and that the process I use helps to remove obstacles to that bright light—clarifying it.

Buddhism uses the "clear-water pearl" as a metaphor for the practice of mindfulness. When tossed into "muddy water" (the confused, impure mind), the pearl is said to clarify the water.  Hence the use of the pearl in the logo.

How Does it Work?

How it Works

The Body Code® was developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, founder of Discover Healing. It includes the Emotion Code®.  The overall method approaches the body as both an energy field and a physical being.  Imbalances, trapped emotions, and other afflictions impact both aspects of our being.  Much healing can be done by addressing the energy side: correcting physical and energy imbalances, releasing trapped emotions and past traumas, and realigning aspects of the physical and energy body to restore health.

 

This process is not talk-therapy and not physical therapy.  You do not need to share your past or present feelings.  Rather, it involves the use of simple muscle-testing techniques to identify specific issues affecting your health. Sometimes we need to dig a little deeper and determine a little more information before your subconscious is ready to heal or release the imbalance. 

 

Then a few swipes of a magnet over the body's prime meridian (from the upper lip, across the top of the head, and down the back of the neck) releases these trapped energies.

Emotion Code® sessions aims to release 5-10 trapped emotions focused on your particular issue.  Sometimes that is enough, sometimes more sessions are needed. You decide.  Sessions last about 30 minutes.

Body Code® sessions allow your subconscious to guide us to specific physical or energic issues affecting the body.  It is a deep and thorough system that gets to the roots of the ailments you are experiencing, and releasing or rebalancing as needed. Sessions can run 60-90 minutes

This work can be done remotely via Zoom meeting for clients anywhere in the world.  For those nearby, it can be done in person if desired.

Like the clear-water pearl, these processes removes energies that muddy our thoughts, reduce our helath, and obstruct our ability to function freely.

Helping Animals

Helping Animals

Animals are People Too!

Anyone who has spent any time around animals knows that they have personalities and emotions just as we do.  This means they too can experience trapped emotions that affect their behavior.  If you have an animal that is showing signs of distress that are not physical, we can use energy healing to release trapped emotions and restore balance.  This type of healing can be done on-site or remotely.  Contact me for details.

Client Stories

"My energy healing sessions helped me more than I expected. Doug was great! I felt safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, which made it easier to let go and relax.  I felt a real shift—Things came up that made me realize many things about myself and my past, and it felt like a weight that I had been carrying for a long time finally eased up.  It was a meaningful experience that brought me comfort, clarity, and a renewed sense of inner strength. Since then, my new-found sense of calm and balance has stayed with me."   —Brenda B., Kona HI.
