Bio

Reverend Mother Swami is a retired Certified Master Trainer of professional hypnotherapy and clinical hypnosis whose work bridges practical technique with witness consciousness. She refined and adapted hypnotherapy methods to be non-coercive and awareness based, in harmony with the distinction between hypnosis and authentic meditation, and she trained other practitioners to do the same. During her nonprofit Art of Embracing Life’s last and closing event, Total Freedom, Mother Swami recognized her soul’s name and accepted it.

Her private hypnotherapy practice in New York City grew entirely by word-of-mouth and led to teaching invitations and awards. Over the years she has become a trusted resource for therapists, educators, and caregivers who serve adults and children with a variety of simple to complex spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical questions.

Spiritual Studies and Intuitive Work

Her studies include:
• Christianity – seeking God, Truth, and the origin of authentic faith.
• Hinduism – Vedas, Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata.
• International Academy of Consciousness (NYC) – scientific training in astral travel, multi-dimensional awareness, vibrational states.
• Permaculture – sustainability and natural systems.
• Teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti (Total Freedom) and Paramahansa Yogananda (Self-Realization, Liberation).

She concluded that only living masters can guide and that God is within—never replaceable.

She is a medical intuitive and empath, deeply sensitive to energies both dark and light. She has experienced near-death experiences (including in 2011), witnessed miracles, and felt the protection of angels and God’s Love. After her NDE in 2011, she entered prolonged Sakshi meditation.

Private Practice and Nonprofit Leadership

From 2005 to 2016, she conducted private practice in New York City and Puerto Rico as a Hypnotherapist and Certified Master Trainer. She created programs such as Self-Hypnosis workshops and trainings for performers.

Training and collaborations

All of Mother Swami’s training and collaborations have arisen from one place: the longing to know God, to live in truth, and to know herself more deeply. Every teacher, every path, and every experience has been a response to that sincere seeking.

She does not believe closeness to God comes from following a famous name, holding certificates, or copying the ways of another. Instead, she teaches that as long as the heart truly seeks God, the right guidance, lessons, and teachers will appear—each unique for every soul. The value lies not in the credentials but in the living connection with the Divine.

The teachers she has learned from are blessings and gifts, but never the source of her growth. The source has always been the One she sought. The following list of trainings and collaborations is therefore not presented as accomplishments or signs of prestige, but simply as part of a spiritual journey guided by devotion, grace, and truth.

• Intensive one-on-one training with Dr. George Bien (IMDHA, NGH, MAOC).

• International Academy of Consciousness (IAC): Created by Dr. Waldo Vieira in Brazil
o Her deep study of the mental soma — the level of consciousness with no shape or form — deeply influenced her understanding of purity, innocence, and what we truly are beyond body, energy, mind, or ego.

• Mother Swami taught her own programs and teachings at Edgar Cayce’s Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) teaching location, where she taught hypnotherapists in New York City.

o A.R.E. was founded by Edgar Cayce in 1931 to foster body–mind–spirit transformation through the Cayce material and an open‑minded, research‑based approach to “apply all knowledge to better living.”

o Edgar Cayce (1877–1945) is one of the most documented psychics of all time, a renowned mystic, and often called the father of holistic medicine.

• Vice President of Healing Within Inc., working alongside Patti Conklin (vibrational mediator, energy healer, radio personality, author). Under Patti’s mentorship, Mother Swami deepened her practice of vibrational medicine and integrated several transformative modalities:

ColorWorks – Using the frequencies of color to address emotional imbalances, carried forward by Mother Swami in her own work.
ToneWorks – Employing sound frequencies and toning as guided visualization to shift vibrations and dissolve inner blockages.
Emotional Cellular Cleansing – Patti’s signature method of releasing traumatic memories stored in the body, combining hypnosis, NLP, visualization, and energy

• Ongoing study and travel, including to Australia for Abraham Hicks workshops (Esther Hicks; the “Abraham” teachings).
o Known for teachings on the Law of Attraction, alignment with Source, deliberate creation, and the emotional guidance process.

O Workshops are interactive—brief meditations and extended Q&A “hot seats” that help attendees practice alignment, appreciation, and allowing.

Through these experiences, Mother Swami came to see how the vibrations of words, emotions, and thoughts shape the human experience. She continues to teach that while the mind is never pure, awareness itself is—an eternal presence that transcends thought, ego, and emotion.

Empathic & Intuitive Side

She has always been deeply intuitive, sensitive to energies of both light and dark. She has had near-death experiences, including one in 2011 that profoundly changed her life. In that state she experienced Sakshi meditation for months without knowing the term, surrounded by God’s presence though unable to speak.

She has witnessed miracles, angelic protection, and God’s love. From these experiences she teaches that “home” is not a distant heaven but can be Eden restored here on Earth — through conscious living, sustainable food forests, and children raised in awareness. True sovereignty is living in God’s love here and now.

Today

Reverend Mother Swami’s focus is the same thread woven through this site: cultivating awareness, restoring real humanity, and serving all of God’s children—especially the littlest ones and their caregivers—through Love and awareness of consciousness.
