Kvantum Energy Healing (KEH; pronounced “Quantum”) is a specialized spiritual healing modality aimed at restoring the body’s optimum energy flow by discovering and releasing mental and emotional blocks that often inhibit the body from wellness. The KEH method was created by metaphysical practitioner, Dr. Vicki Hunter, and has been under meticulous development since 2001. It is based on more than four decades of Dr. Hunter’s metaphysical practice and study. KEH Level 1 —Fundamental Energy Concepts provides a solid knowledgebase and unique insights on various aspects of clearing residual energy, body polarities, basic universal symbols, the power of sound, the power of color, gems, stones, and conduits, and spiritual/cellular memory. In addition, student practitioners are taught a one-of-a-kind and proprietary chakra restoration meditation they can use with clients. Level 1 establishes a crucial foundation for the techniques taught in Levels 2 and 3 where students will receive additional practical training. Students who complete this course will receive their Certified Kvantum Facilitator 1 (CKF1) designation upon completion. Professor: Dr. Vicki Hunter. CEU's: 5

Kvantum Energy Healing (KEH) Level 2 provides the fundamental formula for the proprietary and unique Body-Thought-Memory Integration (BTMI) modality developed by Dr. Vicki Hunter as a means of locating and changing “thoughts in the body.” Emotional, traumatic, epigenetic, and/or past life memory can display unsuspecting and “hidden body memories” which, in turn, can impair overall wellness. KEH Level 2 explores how to find where “body-thoughts” are active and potentially inhibiting the body’s ability to heal. In an effort to inspire a natural flow of balanced energy, KEH Level 2 also teaches a one-of-a-kind method to “reassign thoughts” so that the consciousness of the body can promote self-healing. This BTMI method inspires the spiritual connection with the body. Students are provided worksheets and practical training. KEH Level 2 is another step in preparing students for Level 3--unlocking the full power of the BTMI approach.

This course is an absolute must for any student who desires to counsel or coach others in relationships where alcoholism or another addiction is causing dysfunction in the family. This course will not teach students how to counsel alcoholics or addicts; but it will give students the extensive knowledge required to help the family and friends of alcoholics and addicts (who are grossly under-represented by most addiction programs). This intensive course focuses on alcoholism because it is the most widespread addiction. But the principles taught also apply to helping non-addicts in any other addiction-based relationship. This course is a one-of-a-kind in that it teaches students about the Empowered Recovery (ER) program for nonalcoholics, which they can, in turn, use to help their counseling and coaching clients. ER is a cutting-edge approach to helping the family and friends of alcoholics recognize, understand, and resolve an alcoholic relationship. It has helped thousands of individuals since its development in 2001. This course is taught by the author of ER, Dr. Douglas Kelley. Professor: Dr. Douglas Kelley. CEU's: 5
