Christine (Chrissy) Auclair is currently studying to become certified as an herbalist at the Boston School for Herbal Studies, while simultaneously studying for her certification as a transformational life coach.

Chrissy has been utilizing her gifts as a life coach for many years. After navigating through her own trauma from a very early age, she began to hone her skills in her early 20s, while employed at the University of Connecticut Health Center, where she was exposed to those suffering tremendously on a daily basis. Chrissy’s life experience of innately providing coaching to those facing their own struggles has led her to an enriching path of becoming certified as a transformational life coach.

Chrissy is also a recent cancer survivor, and her mission as a survivor is to help others with the various lessons she learned during her journey. She carries a very bright light within, which she relied on to provide much of her healing during her illness. Chrissy was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of lymphoma, and she also credits her holistic approach to treatment as a significant part of her incredible recovery. She relied heavily on healing imagery and meditation during her entire illness as well; gifts she uses today when coaching anyone suffering from an illness, injury, or emotional trauma.

Chrissy embarked on an intense healing journey after her illness, bringing about an awakening that led to profound life changes, including leaving the corporate world behind and following her heart and mission as a survivor to help others.

Chrissy has written and self-published two children’s books and is an accomplished photographer and writer, with her work published in an upstate New York travel magazine – focusing on nature and her love of the outdoors.

As an herbalist, Chrissy is in the process of creating earth medicine for a natural medicine cabinet which will be incorporated into her new business – Tiger Eye Apothecary.

MICHELE LOWRY, Shamanic Practitioner + Animal Communicator

Michele Lowry, Nikoe Natural Therapies

Michele Lowry has worked very closely with the animal kingdom for over 19 years, although her natural connection with animals was apparent even in her childhood. Her visionary and psychic skills have continued to develop, allowing her to bond with them and to provide a comfortable environment for animals to share their story.

Michele brings understanding and resolution to emotional, physical, and behavioral issues, from past trauma to current day concerns, including senior care, and end of life transition. She has experienced phenomenal healings through the connection and communication the animals share with her and she is able to tell their owners what is troubling them and how they can be helped.

The messages she receives from her own animals have been captured in her three books. The first, Hindsight is 20/20, published in 2016, was a gift from her Rhodesian ridgeback, Nira. He taught her how to see life’s transition through his eyes and to honor the process of releasing the body so the soul can be set free to fully express its essence.

In 2018 she published The Rock: Destiny Through the Eyes of a Horse, describing an 18-year journey with her horse Echoe. Channeled by him, he reveals how he guided, mentored, and challenged her to be the best she can be. Echoe provides clear, concise teachings that expand the ability to connect on a deep, wise, and spiritual level.  Her third book, soon to be published, is titled When Crooked Teeth go Straight: Poems from a Miniature Horse Named Sunshine. It contains over 40 profound and heartfelt poems from her horse Sunshine, along with photographs.
