INTEGRATIVE BODYWORK
The Power of Touch
“The body is a portal into the being that inhabits it.”
Whole Life Therapies offers powerful processes for health and well-being - integrating the body, soul and spirit. Symptoms, problems and issues in our bodies - as in our lives - are messengers… prompting us to ask, “What do we need to come into balance?”
With the interrelationship of the physical body and our emotional and mental states, body work touches the whole and unique person, healing all levels of our human experience - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
Depending on your needs, sessions may include any of the following: Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Esogetic Colorpuncture, flower essences, essential oils, meditative tools, inner imagery, conscious breathing, Reiki, Rosen Method, Voice Dialogue, Somato Emotional Release, Hypnotherapy Bodywork, or a more internal and silent process.
Whether you choose a relaxing yet energizing massage, or a deeper bodywork session, Whole Life Therapies can release unconsciously-held energy and beliefs, thus freeing you and making more of your energy available for the life you choose.
CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
The Power of Gentle Intention
“The CranioSacral system is a core system in the human body. It is the place where body, mind and spirit reside independently and communally at the same time.”--John E. Upledger, D.O., O.M.M. Founder, The Upledger Institute
CranioSacral Therapy is deeply relaxing, subtle yet powerful in its effectiveness to address many conditions related to the craniosacral area (head/spine/tailbone) and central nervous system. The positive effects of CranioSacral Therapy rely largely upon your body's natural self-corrective activities in response to a light hands-on approach. Encouraging the body’s own ability to heal and realign itself for a better flow of life force energy, CST relieves stress with a profound range of benefits.CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, dissipate the negative effects of stress, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction. CST is particularly helpful for: Chronic Neck and Back Pain, Migraines, Whiplash and other types of injuries to the head and sacrum, Motor-Coordination Impairments, Stress and Tension-Related Problems, Sleep problems, Colic, Autism, Central Nervous System Disorders, Scoliosis, Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries, Emotional Difficulties, Chronic Fatigue, Learning Disabilities, Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
ESOGETIC COLORPUNCTURE
The Power of Light
The Power of Light
"Specifically, light is present in the communication between cells in the body, and illness occurs when the cells can no longer speak the same language. Giving light to the body has a resonance effect, bringing cells into the same language again, and thus supporting the body’s natural healing process.”-- Dr. Peter Mandel, Originator of Esogetic Colorpuncture.
Esogetic Colorpuncture is a scientifically researched state-of-the-art holistic healing technology using light frequencies to stimulate healing responses in the body and mind. Specific colors on specific acupoints regulate the energy and information flow in all the different systems of the body.Like acupuncture without needles, Colorpuncture helps with symptoms such as allergies, children’s learning difficulties, sinus issues, hormonal imbalances, headaches, joint pain, toxicity, anxiety and depression, sleep, helping you to dream, and live your dreams! Treatments address the root cause and energy blockages that may interfere with living your life purpose.

RETREAT HOUSE
With walking or biking trails through the thirty acre property of Incense Cedar, Pondersosa Pine and Oak trees, a star-filled night sky over a lovely meadow, a peaceful oasis lets you bring the inside and the outside into harmonious balance.
It’s not for everybody - solar energy systems don't do well with electric hair dryers. Primary heat is a woodstove, with a supplementary propane heater. A place for those who consider no access to wi-fi and TV a welcome pleasure, not a limitation, and one which asks you to be mindful of excesses in general (energy and water in particular).
If you are looking for a retreat for a weekend, a week or a month(s), please contact me to discuss the possibilities. House is best for one or two people, and has sleeping accommodations for 5 (two double beds and one single).

CONSULTATION/SPECIAL BLENDS
"All the different flowers have a language... that's in each flower... it shape, its color has a frequency. You're taking in the vibration of a flower, and it's connecting with that vibration in you."
Essential oils are therapeutic fragrances, usually steam distilled, from flowers, leaves, seeds, roots, and woods for healing of the body and spirit.
Special blends of flower essences and/or essential oils are available. If you would like a custom blend to address a particular physical/emotional/spiritual situation, I would love to make one for you! Blends can address anxiety, grief, recovery, moods, imbalances as well as physical symptoms. Contact me to schedule a consultation (phone or in person) and receive a special blend for your own unique needs. $40.00 (includes tax and shipping, if not local) for consultation, special formula, and product.
MEET JOHANNA
My mission with Whole Life Therapies is to hold a space for anyone to experience more of who they are.
"As a young person I really wanted to know what my life purpose was. I imagine what I offer with WLT is all that I found useful along the way, all in one place.”
..we are self-supporting organisms....our cells organize around a life principle or purpose… it comes from the inside out.”
"There's the belief that people can't just be who they are and get away with it... dis-ease results from not realizing your gift is to be you... fully, freely, fearlessly.”
"I want people to leave the session feeling there’s nothing they have to add to be good enough. It is more like allowing the layers of protection to fall away, to reveal the beauty in the stone.”
"I found that real change happens individually and through the body, not from a concept of the mind."
"Relationships can be dynamic works of art...a place of our greatest creativity and vehicles for transformation."
"Spirituality is broader to me than a religion. It may encompass all of them, or even none."
"Everything is a frequency. I’ve come to realize whether it is an emotion, a flower essence, working with light and color, speaking a word, breathing, the pathway to healing involves frequencies.”
CREDENTIALS: Doctorate of Philosophy Summit University, 1998 Certifications in Transformational Bodywork, Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Esogetic Colorpuncture, Aromatherapy, Hypnotherapy Bodywork, Reiki. Studies include: Voice Dialogue, Vipassana Meditation, Active Meditation, Rosen Method, Imagery, Flower Essences, Goddess Religion (Ordained Priestess 1992).

"Johanna Atman's hands are like sensitive antennae, picking up signals
that I myself am sometimes slow to receive. She works in a humble and
intuitive manner, meeting people where they are ready to be met, I think.

tough hard spots blooming, and a deep calm inviting me down from the
shallower everyday anxiety. I would recommend her to anyone." -- Francesca Preston, Grafista,

I was awed." --Karin Lubin, Ed.D. Quantum Leap Coaching
