My Story
Energy therapy is a very intimate, subtle, and introspective
sort of work. It requires a certain sense of trust, for both the
giver and the receiver, and a comfort level with the process.
With this in mind, I offer you a little insight into who I am....
My name is Sara O'Connor and I live in southern New
Mexico. I am trained in classical ballet and I have a degree in
fine art. My path has always been that of an artist - and like
many artists, I find that I have what I like to call an "extended
vocabulary" for sensory perception. My love for art has led
me on a journey encompassing various disciplines and
culminates here, with my own energy therapy practice. This
kind of work calls together all of my artistic abilities: the
intimate knowledge of physical anatomy, the familiarity with
the human body's style of communication, and the fluidity I
learned as a dancer; the sensitivity to subtleties in light and
color I have as a painter; and the attentiveness to tone and
sound quality I integrated as a musician.
It was originally through caring for my own body that I came
to study denser modalities such as shiatsu and trigger point
therapy more than five years ago. During my years as a
bodywork professional, I realized that I was sensing details on
a much more refined level and that I was more naturally
inclined to work directly with human energy systems.
Exploring these avenues, I began to see that all of the skills I
had as an artistic person could be woven together to create a
very sturdy core for the perception and manipulation of subtle
energies. Today, I am a certified Reiki Master in the Usui
system of Reiki, and I am a certified Chios Master Teacher
working within the Chios system. I have worked with
shamanistic techniques to develop a strong center and a
strong will to be of service in the best way possible. My style
of work is a intuitive blend. It incorporates Accupuncture
meridians and vortices when dealing with energy movement
within the denser body systems, and techniques derived from
the Chios method when handling the chakras and the auric
layers.

About Me
Subtle therapies such as energy field healing are invaluable to
human beings as a tool for growth, balance, creativity, health,
and self-knowledge. My goal with Lux Anima is to provide a
safe place to study, ask questions, and receive care - whether
you decide to work alone or with me. If you choose to work
alone, you can go to the Studio for some basic exercises and
projects you can do on your own. If you would like to talk
about starting a course of study together or setting up an
appointment for a balancing session, please be sure to read all
of the information given on the appropriate pages and then
use the contact form and we can set up a schedule that will
work for both of us.
