A Healer

As a Certified Pranic Healer, Marianne helps people break old patterns, find greater clarity, and move forward in alignment with their higher purpose. 

Since 2011, Marianne has used Pranic Healing to help changemakers across the country recognize their inherent strengths and develop an expanded mindset and toolkit to be healthier, happier, and better than before.
