Ezine

I just want to say how much I enjoyed this issue of your ezine Cheryl as your feature article really spoke to this single girl and I think you’re absolutely right!!
C.B

I read it slowly … then read it all again. It’s from the heart … it resonates with me, and with others I’m sure. You poignantly articulate the search so many of us are on … with your guidance, I did just that: set the intention. Your family, friends and students are blessed to have you in their lives.

GREAT analogy with the waiter and placing your order. Loved the whole ezine this week.
K.B.

Love the way you provide comfort, encourage, guide and (if necessary) a kick in the ass! I loved your email about the sacred illness. Thank you. Perfect timing. And a nice reminder to trust that things are unfolding as they should.
P.H.

Great ezine! As usual, once I read it I thought of someone to forward it to. Hugs

Your e-zine was so timely!!!! I loved your article: “sacred Illness or dreaded occurrence” I realize now that chest pain & subsequent angiogram (& feeling overwhelmed with life) almost 2.5 yrs ago, was the beginning of my “sacred illness”. It really has been a blessing. Thanks Cheryl for your help with turning my “physical” ailments around and, to not focusing on the discomfort. AND: for your gentle reminders that one can change how one thinks. Thank you ~ Thank you ~ Thank you.
S.R.

Cheryl – Love it! Chock full ezine of weekly wisdom at my fingertips… How easy and blessed is that? So relate to sacred illness as a teacher! So many great classes.

Cheryl: Once again, thank you for such a totally inspirational weekend which has left us all the richer from the knowledge and teachings that you have shared with us. And then there is the fun we that all have in getting to know one another just a little bit more through all the laughter – and even a few tears, which only go to show what we all are really made of.. and that is such a good thing!! Thank you especially for opening up your heart to all of us and encouraging us to reach for the sky..!!
B.B.

Thank you soooo…much, for helping me to live my life in this state of grace.  It is truly, the greatest gift I have ever received.  I’m at peace, for the first time in my life.
K.B.

Of all the Reiki trainings I’ve experienced, I found the Karuna Reiki training to be the most profound and useful.

I use the gifts of Karuna Reiki daily. They’ve helped me with everything from grounding, to healing, to success moving beyond resistances and obstacles.

Cheryl is a skilled and talented Reiki Master. It was a privilege and pleasure to have her guide me through the Karuna Reiki Master Training. She creates a safe and open environment which facilitates learning and integration.
Thank you Cheryl – much love and light!
M.W.  Kingston, Ontario

Over the last few months I have been feeling very stuck, and felt a little hopeless.  When the opportunity came to take Karuna Reiki my hope was ignited once again and I found myself excited about learning more healing symbols.  I felt like this would motivate me to get back on my path of self healing and awareness.

Karuna did just that for me and so much more!!  Not only did I enjoy being in the positive energy of your space but I once again enjoyed learning from you…….

You make it your mission to be there whole heartedly for your students.  I still feel like I’m “vibrating” with so much loving energy!!

The Karuna symbols seem to have made quite an imprint in my heart and soul and I am now once again excited to be back on my path and journey to self healing.

Thank you Karuna and thank you Cheryl for spreading your love to all who are willing to reach out for it!!
SG, Kingston, Ontario


It is difficult to express my gratitude to you for so many things. For having the courage to follow your truth and move into teaching Reiki and making a living at what you are obviously so incredibly gifted at, for creating such a loving and safe and supportive space for so many others to heal and grow, and for taking the care that you have with me. I have tried for many years – tried in many ways to forget or run or dismiss it all. I am so fortunate that you are here now when it’s time for me to heal and release and grow.
B.C. Montreal, Quebec

I had heard of Reiki as a hands-on healing method a couple of years ago and have been very curious about it. I was thrilled to see the ad in the paper for Sacred Journeys Healing Center and signed up for the Reiki level one course, not entirely sure of what was involved. I was somewhat apprehensive of spending 2 full days with a small group of strangers being initiated into something that I knew very little about. Cheryl is a wonderful, caring person who has the talent to make people feel very comfortable in her cozy center. The Reiki experience for me was very releasing. I had spent several years in counselling trying to improve my emotional well-being. I feel that spending a weekend being initiated into Reiki has done more for me than several years of various types of counselling. It has changed my perspective of love and life on many levels.  My self-esteem and confidence has improved. I am a calmer person now, who feels less stressed in everyday life. This feeling has permeated throughout our household, bringing serenity into our lives. Of course, life will always have its ups and downs, but I feel better equipped now for managing my life.  I have also been helping my family and pets with minor physical problems, such as insomnia, strains, sprains, headaches and colds, and they all enjoy the many healing aspects of Reiki. We have nipped colds in the bud and been rid of them in 24 hours!  I highly recommend Cheryl Hiebert as a Reiki Master who offers an excellent course and a beautiful initiation into the realm of Reiki.
Jenny M. Yarker, Ontario

I have had the pleasure of studying as well as receiving treatments at Sacred Journey’s Healing Arts Centre. Without Cheryl Hiebert, there would be no healing arts centre. She is not only the owner, teacher and healer; she is the soul of this very special place. She is truly an enlightened person, with many accomplishments to be proud of, yet as soon as you enter Sacred Journey’s and meet Cheryl, you feel like you have just met your best friend. Her focus is to help you find your path. She sees each person as a unique soul on their own journey and she is there as a loving facilitator. You will never find yourself pushed into something you were not sure of. Cheryl can be funny, sassy, certainly full of life as well as gentle and loving. The peace that surrounds her is a tangible presence at her centre. It is a special place that I love to be at and I am sure anyone trying one session or a whole program will feel the same.
Nancy F. Kingston, Ontario

I just want to thank you again for the most loving, freeing and peaceful weekend of wonderful memories that I’ll keep forever.  I think I’m in a little state of shock…WOW…I’m a Reiki Master!!!!!  What a journey and I’m blessed to have found you – in helping see me through all the healing I’ve experienced.
S.G. Sydenham, Ontario

I will be ever grateful for the “jumpstart” Reiki and you gave to my life!  I can hardly believe all the changes that fell into place with that as the starting place.  I have never been so happy, or filled with joy and contentment in my life.  Good things keep happening to me!  I understand what and why, and boy oh boy am I enjoying the ride!  (I’m practically giddy some days!)  I’ve been coasting along at a “nine” on a scale of one to ten, for well over a month or so.  I hope you continue to open the door in others’ lives as well, for some time to come!
S.E. Kingston, Ontario

Just to let you know how totally wonderful I feel - really needed all that work. Furthermore, Don’t  EVER try to second-guess your abilities - you have the most wonderful energy - on a par with some of the best I’ve experienced in India – seriously.
T.L. Kingston, Ontario

It was WONDERFUL to spend the weekend with you, the others and Willow! YOU are a wonderful soul! In chatting to to my friends that have taken the class, we got to talking about how beautiful (inside and out) and special you are! (The word ‘Sparkling’ was used!)
T.C. Kingston, Ontario

Thanks so much for yesterday. You are a truly inspirational teacher. As a constant sceptic, I now have a greater faith in the angels that are with me each day. It’s the ego that prevents us from believing that we “qualify” for such gifts yet the more I travel through this life, the greater the understanding. I’m so happy to have you as part of my journey. I believe I’m getting a spiritual “kick in the ass” to get going.
P.P. Athens, Greece

As always, you make my heart sing and my face smile. I do in fact have the Louise Hay book and I’ll start a regimen of recommended d affirmations immediately.  Thanks for your continued gift to me… it is greatly appreciated.
S.H. Toronto, Ontario

It is the first year that I recuperated faster than any other year from PTSD in February and I give it all to you and meditation and Reiki…Thank you!
A.V. Venezula

I’m feeling good today.  Proud of my growth, and thankful for the opportunities that have presented themselves. Thank you, my Earth Angel.  I don’t know if I would have arrived here without your love, your wisdom, and your patience.  Lots and lots of love.
V.T. Kingston, Ontario

Man I love this place that I am in, thank you Cheryl -for helping me get here. I will always hold you dear to my heart for this; I especially look forward to learning much more from you.
D.T. Kingston, Ontario

I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic weekend learning First degree Reiki!!  It was such a relaxing and peaceful learning environment and I am really excited for the following levels, as I am dying to go deeper with this. I am so very grateful to you for all that you are bringing to my life!
A.P. Kingston, Ontario

I have a lot that I want to express to you. that will come. For tonight I would like to just express my gratitude to you for providing such a beautiful space of love and sacredness and safety. I feel a thousand pounds lighter – that’s all that I know at this point. Also a profound sense of love – a love that I suspected existed but a love that I had never experienced until this weekend.
B.C Kingston, Ontario

I am the friend that brought Sharon to see you before she passed away. I wanted to thank you for bringing the Angels into Sharon’s life before she left us. She loved the Reiki sessions that helped to ease the pain. She was such a beautiful woman, and I miss her every day…she was my confidant, my best friend, my sister. I believe that God made sure that we with her for the last 6 weeks before she died.  I feel blessed that she wanted me there with her in such an intimate time. I thought it was fitting that I was reading about Angels today, and you came to mind again. From the first day I met you I felt such a calm and loving aura surrounding you. Thank you again for helping my beloved friend in her last few weeks.
God Bless,
M.G. Calgary, AB

The Reiki session was wonderful. It made me feel at peace. It was true about old things bubbling to the surface. I was able to resolve some family issues. I looked up the animal totem you shared from our session and was amazed at how it fit in with my life right now. Thank you so much I will be calling to make another appointment soon!
H.H. Kingston, Ontario

Thank you for such a wonderful weekend.  I so enjoyed learning, laughing, singing and dancing with you all.  Also, to express my appreciation for all your loving support, especially around my emotional experiences with my family.  I am now looking at this situation as a Lightworker and not from an ego based perspective.  Thank you…
L.C. Kingston, Ontario

Reiki is amazing!!  I cannot believe how quickly my daughter recovered from her flu yesterday. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, for introducing Reiki to me.  It is such a wonderful healing tool to have!! Much love!
C.M. Sydenham, Ontario

You were there when I needed the guidance to allow for the awakening to start and grow.  You have been so instrumental in this process for me and I could not imagine doing it this well or fast if it were not for you…My Friend and Earth Angel Guide.
H.W. S. Kingston, Ontario

I have been fantastic since the workshop. My whole perspective on everything has been shifted. I am journaling, doing self-care treatments, and doing A LOT of reading about different things like the chakras and so on.
C.S. Kingston, Ontario

Thanks again for a fulfilling session.  I find that your answers to my questions and musings are very helpful.  You have a great way of articulating your understanding of the world and our place in it, distilled through your own learning and personal experience.  It’s very refreshing and inspiring.  The Reiki part of the session was invigorating yet again.  Remarkably I’m beginning already to feel relief in my neck and shoulders.
H.B. Kingston, Ontario

Just wanted to let you know how good my body feels after the Thai massage. I really did feel like going to sleep yesterday – it felt relaxing. The little ache in my hip still is gone this morning. Thank you so much again. Maybe this should be incorporated with all your ion cleanses?
H.E. Kingston, Ontario

I am still in awe of how perfect this past weekend’s class went! I had everything that I needed, we stayed exactly on time (if you can believe it!), and I presented everything just as I had planned to and, as I answered questions, I stepped back and thought “That is the best answer ever!” I really can’t say enough about how much your teachings, guidance and support enabled this weekend’s success. Without you, I don’t know where I would be, but I know it would not be in the blissful state I find sharing the Divine gift of Reiki. Many many blessings Cheryl!
C.S. Kingston, Ontario

There was a lot of information to absorb and the warm and loving energy from the lovely angel ladies was truly amazing. When you gave me the certificate, I was overwhelmed with emotion. When I started out on this journey, I really didn’t know just how far I would go.  I was so apprehensive, not knowing whether it was the right path.  But as I went along, with your encouragement and support, I knew that this is what I wanted to do and needed as part of my self healing.  Thank you.
C.C. Kingston, Ontario

Thanks again for another beautiful weekend. A true oasis of peace in the centre of a storm. It’s lovely to sit with you and share, receive knowledge and simply enjoy the tranquility of your beautiful space—a necessity for grounding and moving forward.
J.F. Odessa, Ontario

The Monday session was almost indescribable. I actually had a pain free time of almost 5 hours, and even when it returned it started faintly and slowly.  I have to tell you that I’ve only had 2 other pain free moments in the last 3 1/2 years and they were very brief. I am definitely going to continue our distant Reiki sessions!
T.G. Leamington, Ontario

I want to sincerely thank you for yesterday. I feel it was a session filled with miracles and lots of angel support and guidance. Wow – thank you, Cheryl, for being the person that you are and for sharing your knowledge, or skills, or warm loving heart and your lovely healing facility. I am blessed in so many miraculous ways. Plus a big thank you for your care and love with the great chai tea!! I had no idea that it could be made from scratch. Have a wonderful day.
J.B. Kingston, Ontario

Once again thank you for such a wonderful first treatment. I will be able to work with you, and I feel that the therapy will be totally valuable. I am blessed to have found this resource! Thank you for the extra time today, I truly felt cared for.

Angel Readings

Gratitude to You Miss ATP certified by Doreen Virtue for the wonderful phone session. I just got back from an hour walk at the park in the woods and by the water!!!  I feel Sooooooooooo much better. I promised my mom a phone call tonight (now I don’t feel resentment about it, ha! ha!) My child self needed to know that I am important and that I matter.  I’m in the middle of processing deep childhood wounds, and so your response today was very therapeutic.  I feel unstuck now.  Thank You for the session and for your care.  You are so loving! My soul is happy that we have connected.

Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement this weekend- as usual, the weekend was a beautiful experience for me. I can’t seem to learn enough about this stuff, and I can’t imagine learning from anyone other than you.
C.B. Kingston, Ontario

I had tears as I read this angel reading from you. I can’t even begin to explain to you why. I am too emotional. I promise to write to you and explain myself and my reaction to you though. I have no one to ever turn to for readings. I just find it hard to believe in people out there. You I trust and know you are gifted my friend, so doubt is removed. Thank you sweet pea!
B.L. Orlando, Florida

Thank you so much for the lovely session tonight. I love and admire the woman you are. Your words of wisdom mean a lot to me. After seeing you, I realize I really do have to take better care and nurture myself.  You are an inspiration to me!
G.R.Kingston, Ontario

I finally reached my DAUGHTER….WOW! I feel, just amazing!!!!! We spoke for just over one hour and we were both so full of excitement, that I cannot describe it. Thanks to you! The emptiness that I had inside of me has been filled, I will never forget you!! I will write you again to tell you all about it, because right now I cannot see through all my tears. God Bless you!
G.M.  Kingston, Ontario

On my second visit with you, you told me that I would end up with a man that has W’s in his name. Well I did. His first name starts with a W and so does his Last name. We have been dating for over a year now and things are great.
N. D. Picton, Ontario

I can say you are VERY accurate. The first example I can give is you talking about a guy in my life who wears thick glasses and has problems with this eyes – severe problems with his eyes etc etc. I had NO IDEA  the guy I was beginning to chat with at that time had severe eye problems and had wore thick glasses all of his life and had had extensive eye surgery to correct his eye problems. I had never seen him wear glasses at all.

Angel Party

I would like to take this time to thank you for the wonderful afternoon this past Saturday. I was very impressed with your short “overview” of Angels and what one of your Angel courses might touch upon. You did a fantastic job of expressing yourself in a way that was easy to understand and relate back to my own life. Because of this, I am seriously considering taking the Angel 101 course as I am confident that I will understand the concepts, ideas and information given.

The reading, of course, was also a great experience. I had no idea how quickly twenty minutes could pass! The guidance and suggestions I received were very valuable to me and I fully intend to give them a try. It was also nice to hear validations of things I felt or was thinking about.

During my reading I talked about feeling on the verge of a lot of change. It is time for my inner self to once again evolve. I knew it was needed but didn’t know how to begin. I truly believe that I have now found a place to start my new journey.

You have a great gift Cheryl. You bring a sense of comfort, hope, and lightness to those around you. I have heard these sentiments echoed over and over again from others who were there. The Angels are most definitely working both with and through you, in order to touch people’s lives. How extraordinary!
P.M. Kingston, Ontario

Oh Cheryl you are a sweetie heart. Your aura is very calming to be around. The reviews are amazing – I believe all of the ladies left with lighter hearts and a bounce of good energy. That brought tears of joy to my heart for them. So I say thank you to you 100 times.
D.T. Kingston, Ontario

Mediumship Readings

Got home last night and didn’t think about the session. This morning when I got up, the same as I do everyday. There, by the rock path in my back yard was a single daisy.  This is not an area where we have had wild daisies grow before, and the stem was only out of the ground about an inch.  It wasn’t there yesterday, I would have noticed.  Also, the other daisies around our yard finished blooming a couple of weeks ago. It brought a smile, slight chuckle and ‘Thanks my mom!’ I think because it was a visual sign from her that you had mentioned in our reading, it made it all clearer. Thanks for facilitating this very important connection for me.
C.S. Ontario


Yoga

Thank you for your observations.  I too feel a big difference in my body with Yoga this time round.  I feel that my body is moving easier through some of the positions.  My therapist has remarked on how much better I am breathing as well.
C.C. Kingston, Ontario

I feel great. You’re class is amazing, much better than I expected.  You really are a great instructor.  You explain everything very well and proceed with a nice pace.  For beginner participants I really think you couldn’t have done a better job. I am of the opinion that your teaching style, your genuine personality and your overall presentation would reach a large market group of people who are contemplating taking up yoga but may be intimidated by it.
D.G. Kingston, Ontario

You have a great understanding of the yoga practice and you deliver the information with an explanation, which most of us thinking adults appreciate.  Also, you have such an amazing persona.
G.D.. Kingston, Ontario

I have had the privilege of taking yoga classes with Cheryl for a full month and in what would seem like a short period of time I experienced so much more than what I had imagined it to be. I had never taken any yoga classes before and was a little apprehensive at first with the thought of being “super” flexible but I soon found out that it was much more than that!!  It was learning how to focus on my breath, learning how to be still and simply relax, learning that by breathing properly my body would naturally stretch a little further without having to feel like I was over straining. In every class, there was a progression and I would feel more flexible and balanced, and I started to feel more confident in myself realizing that I “could” do this!!

As an instructor, Cheryl was very accommodating to everyone and always gave us lots of different options to choose from, that would suit our specific needs.  Her instructions were always easy to follow and ofcourse she would gracefully lead by example.  Because of my wonderful experience with Cheryl, I am eager to keep this up and I will continue to strive in keeping my body, mind and spirit in perfect health and harmony.

Women’s Workshops/Inner Goddess

I am being moved to write to attempt to express what a profoundly positive experience the weekend was for me.  After the workshop on Saturday, I went for dinner with a woman I met at the workshop and we talked and talked and talked.  I had a leisurely drive home on Sunday, enjoying the little towns along the way. I realized when I woke up on Monday how much I felt lightened/lighted from the inside out.  It seems that I continue to reap the benefits of the environment, the people, the doing something special for myself, and the wonderful energy which you shared with the room of women.  My family has taken to asking how the Goddess is when we speak.  I believe they sense a fundamental shift inside of me. It was an unexpected gift indeed and the debris which it cleared was another huge benefit.  Thank you.
C. M. Pakenham, Ontario

Thank you for a wonderful day. I cannot express how good I feel tonight, IT was a positively uplifting day.  Meeting new people, bonding with women, I just loved it……You are truly gifted.  I look forward to the next one.
J.E. Yarker, Ontario

Ion Cleanse

Just wanted to let you know I feel 10 kinds of fabulous this morning. I feel REALLY clear headed. Still do. Pretty fab. I think we’re going to have to do this cleanse bit again!
T.F. Kingston, Ontario

The ION cleanse was so great. I had a wonderful little nap and woke up so refreshed. Later that evening, I realized that although I still had almost all the joint pain, I no longer had the stiffness and I could easily walk without my cane !!!! My hand that was so swollen and so painful at a 10+ (pain) was no longer swollen and the pain is a 1-2 and I can once again close my hand into a fist. YES !!! I had a women’s group that I attended today (without my cane) and I felt wonderful. Thank you so much !!!!! I will spread the word.
N.F. Kingston, Ontario

I want to sincerely thank you for yesterday. I feel it was a session filled with miracles and lots of angel support and guidance. Wow – thank you, Cheryl, for being the person that you are and for sharing your knowledge, or skills, or warm loving heart and your lovely healing facility. I am blessed in so many miraculous ways. Plus a big thank you for your care and love with the great chai tea!! I had no idea that it could be made from scratch. Have a wonderful day.

Soul Reading

Thank you for helping me to get READY to get to the core of my thoughts, beliefs, values, and strengths.  With your help, it has been a journey of understanding, compassion and growth in the direction of my Soul’s purpose. With your advice, I “sat” with our session, and all that was discussed, and find that one core belief that I am very sure of, is that there are many lovely “me’s” inside of me, and each of them are a journey to the truth that is me, and that all of them together have played an important role in me becoming who I am,  and now it is time to let some of them “alchemize” into some of the truths that I have been afraid to see and feel – the unknown part of me, that I am now ready to meet and love.
F.H. Kingston. Ontario

Thank you, Cheryl, for your willingness and ability to guide me through this journey of discovery, and be with me as I learn to rediscover who has always been inside of me, hidden by so many core beliefs and blocks, and now is knowing that it is time to “come out”. I am a bit frightened, but very excited by what awareness’s will be learned in the processes of discovery.
A.B. Los Angeles, CA

Thank you for your warmth and understanding during the reading, your wise knowing and feeling - that there is somewhere inside of us a beautiful, magnificent spirit waiting to show us that life is a journey, a journey to the wondrous being of who we truly are.
C.H. Hamilton, Ontario

I just wanted to say thanks again and already I feel like so many things in my life just suddenly make sense.
K.W. Kingston, Ontario

Chakra Clearing and Balancing

Thanks for thinking of me and checking in. I have been doing very well.  The chakra clearing helped out tremendously – I feel so much lighter. I was really surprised that I was still referring to myself as “being sick”. I have been trying to be really aware of how I think, feel, talk and act since our session.
G.L. Kingston, Ontario

Pet Loss Bereavement Counseling

I can’t begin to tell you how much talking to you yesterday evening helped – although we spoke the one time, it helped me through what was the most difficult pain I have ever felt.  While I know it was the absolute best thing for her, there is such a void in our home. It’s still awful and sad coming home each time without her to greet me – I can’t believe how hard this is.  I sit and reflect a lot, especially with her on my lap now, and while I cry I can absolutely feel her with me still. Cheryl, thank you for being so incredibly open and present to this kind of pain – what you do is immeasurably helpful.  I will continue to connect with you – thank you.
J.P. London, Ontario

Animal Communication

Oh my goodness, Cheryl, you were beyond right. Mitzi is the most amazing, gentle spirit.  And she has been sitting very quietly on a stool for the last half hour – as though deeply engrossed – as you spoke to her, I know you did. Thank-you again, from the bottom of my heart. Your kindness is overwhelming, and you have given me great peace and comfort. Oh she just came now to sit on my lap. Blessings to you, for your wonderful work, and loving spirit.
Marie.O. S. Johannesburg, South Africa

I contacted Cheryl to communicate with my young cat who was peeing on my bed. I read her email out loud to my cat who happens to like lying on my printer that is beside my laptop computer.  As I read Cheryl’s words of wisdom to him, which had more to say about my behaviour than my cat’s (!), he reached out and touched the sides of my face with his paws.  He had never done that before or since, touch me with his paws, even though I often talk with him when he lies on the printer.  What the experience taught me was to hear what my feline friend was telling me through his communication with Cheryl.  Through his reflection, I was better able to see myself, particularly what my relationship to him was like.  It was a real gift.
