We had the good fortune of connecting with Shannon Kassoff and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Shannon, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I would say it was more of a calling. I had a steady career for over 2 decades as a licensed veterinary nurse, and at the time, I was the lead nurse of a multi doctor practice but everything in me was screaming that it was time to leave. It was not easy to listen to this inner voice because I had so much fear of leaving a steady paycheck, but when the opportunity presented itself, I took the leap and stepped out on my own as a yoga and meditation teacher. It wasn’t long after that, that my calling expanded into energy healing and breathwork. It was becoming clear that being of service to others healing and spiritual growth was my true calling. Sharing the practices, disciplines and healing techniques that were a huge part of my own spiritual awakening became my life’s work.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My healing path and business started with becoming a Yoga & Meditation Teacher in 2010. As a yogi, I had experienced life changing growth mentally and physically from my personal practice and felt called to share the path with others. I still teach to this day because sharing the disciplines of mind, body and breath brings about a shift in awareness and a deeper connection to our inner guidance.

Through my own yoga and meditation practice, I started awakening my intuitive abilities and started receiving clear messages from my Higher Self and Guides. One of those messages was “I am a healer and that I am to be trained in Reiki”. At the time, early 2018, I didn’t know what Reiki was but two weeks later found my self talking to a yoga student who happened to be running a Reiki training that weekend. I signed up without really knowing what I was signing up for. I trusted the calling and started seeing clients shortly after my training.

Channeling healing energy for others continues to evolve and expand. I have seen miraculous things on my reiki table. My clients have experienced physical and emotional healing, spontaneous awakening, clearing and chakra balancing, connections to helpers and loved ones beyond the veil and so much more. I also train and attune others to Reiki which is an evolution on their own healing path and a call to service to the awakening of human consciousness.

Another offering that brings about quantum shifts for my clients healing journey is Clarity Breathwrok. This guided gentle circular breath technique coupled with spiritual counseling helps people quiet the conscious mind so they can tap into the subconscious, where all experiences are stored. This somatic experience brings about healing on all levels of a persons body and being of unresolved emotions, trauma, conditioning, as well as, insights, epiphanies, acceptance and forgiveness.

I want the world to know that healing is your birthright and we all have the innate ability to heal ourselves. My purpose in this life is to help, heal, guide, activate and attune others so they can remember their own power.

I want to thank my husband Christian for his support and trust in my vision, I couldn’t have started my own business without his love and encouragement. He has always been by my side.
