  “Tomorrow belongs to the people who plan for it today,” is a wise African proverb. And we would like to support you as a HTPA member in planning a great tomorrow for your practice!

• Expand Your Network: Your Ears Are Not Just for Hearing, But Also for Healing

  • Start
    02/01/2026
  • End
    03/01/2026

  

  HTPA is excited to present another inspiring episode in our Expand Your Network – Exploring Self-Care Modalities series!

  In this engaging Expand Your Network: Exploring Self-Care Modalities presentation, holistic nurse and integrative health educator Patti O’Rourke invites Healing Touch practitioners to discover how the ears can be powerful tools for healing—not just hearing.

  Participants will learn how ear-based therapies can support pain relief, nervous system regulation, emotional balance, immune function, and overall well-being. Through simple demonstrations and practical explanations, Patti shows how these techniques can be easily integrated into both personal self-care and client sessions.

  This presentation explores:

  • Ear (Auricular) Reflexology and how the ear serves as a map of the entire body

  • The science and application of Battlefield Acupuncture for rapid pain relief and calming the fight-or-flight response

  • The NADA protocol and its role in supporting addiction recovery, trauma, stress, and emotional regulation

  • An introduction to Rife healing music and frequencies for post-operative support and whole-body regeneration

  You’ll walk away with simple, accessible techniques—like ear massage—that can be used anytime, anywhere, as well as a deeper understanding of how ear-based modalities complement Healing Touch, intuition, and intention.

  A wonderful addition to your healing toolbox and a reminder that powerful healing tools are quite literally at our fingertips.

  About Expand Your Network – Exploring Self-Care Modalities:
  

  This HTPA series invites Healing Touch Instructors and Certified Practitioners to share self-care modalities they are skilled in or passionate about. These presentations are designed to inspire your own self-care, support your clients, and serve as a valuable resource for Healing Touch Practitioner Apprentices working on Level 5 Growth Work, especially the self-care modalities requirement.

• Member Spotlight: Carolyn Pitts

  • Start
    02/06/2026
  • End
    03/06/2026

  

  Our Member Spotlight is on Carolyn Pitts, ACE-CHC, ACE-BCS, PBC, HTP-A

  Meet our Member Carolyn!

  With over 25 years as an ACE-certified Health Coach, Carolyn came to Healing Touch as a powerful complement to her work in sustainable lifestyle change and self-care. What began as a tool for her own healing gradually became a deeper path—one rooted in presence, intuition, and listening to the wisdom of the body. In this grounded and reflective conversation, Carolyn shares insights that are especially meaningful for practitioners navigating growth, self-trust, and transition.

  Carolyn’s journey is a beautiful reminder that healing is not about forcing change, but about creating the conditions for awareness, readiness, and compassion to unfold.

  In this interview, you’ll learn:

  • How Healing Touch became an essential part of Carolyn’s own self-healing journey and professional evolution

  • What helped her move from “doing it right” to trusting her intuition and energetic awareness

  • Insights from her book Eight Intentions for Self-Healing, including the importance of readiness and self-awareness in the healing process

  • How Healing Touch, health coaching, and behavior change work together to support lasting, sustainable transformation

  • Why unmet needs and illness can offer meaningful information on the healing path

  • What working with animals through Healing Touch has taught her about presence, sensitivity, and energy

  • How coherence, collective intention, and community—through HeartMath and Power of Eight healing circles—have shaped her practice

  • Encouragement for practitioners who may be feeling uncertain, disconnected, or in transition

  A special highlight from this interview:
  Carolyn also teaches a Trauma Tapping technique from the Peaceful Heart Network—a simple, practical tool you can use for self-regulation, nervous system support, and gentle client care. This technique is especially helpful during times of stress, overwhelm, or transition and is easy to integrate into both personal self-care and professional practice.
  

  This interview offers reassurance, practical tools, and gentle wisdom for wherever you are on your Healing Touch journey.

  
  

  This interview can be found on the Member Spotlight page of the member site and is available to HTPA Community and Professional Members.

  This series highlights the diverse ways in which our HTPA Members are bringing Healing Touch into their profession, lives, and communities. The views and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of Healing Touch Program, Healing Touch Professional Association Healing Touch or the community. Healing Touch Program and Healing Touch Professional Association offer this as a platform for discussion and awareness, and recognizes and respects that each individual has their own viewpoint and beliefs.

  ✪ Healing Touch Certification continuing education credits are available as listed below. You can list those on the Continuing Education Worksheet available in the Certification support portal. No certificates will be issued.

  ✪ Approved HTC CE: 1 hour. Not to exceed 10 hours in the 5 year renewal period.

  These practice groups are an opportunity for students and practitioners to:

  • Become more confident in administering HT techniques
  • Connect with your HT community
  • Have access to an instructor that can answer your questions and provide you with guidance

  For each Healing Touch Level Practice Group, Instructors will:

  • Provide guidance on practicing the techniques during the group

  Participants must have completed the HT Level prior to attending the practice group (ie. must have completed Level 1 in order to participate in Level 1 Practice Group).
  

  Fees:

  HTPA Members -FREE 

  Public - $40 

  HOW THE PRACTICE GROUPS WORK:

  1. The first part of the practice group is a guided meditation and then an Instructor led teaching and demonstration of a specific HT technique. Thoughtfully selected learning plans/technique reviews have been selected for each Level, each month.

  2. Participants then have an opportunity to ask questions before being put into breakout rooms to practice the technique.

  3. Participants then return back to the main session to share their experience and ask more questions.

  The whole process is designed to help you learn, grow, and become more confident, not only with the instructor's guidance, but also from other's experiences and questions as well!

  TIPS:

  All participants on the call will be paired up in breakout rooms to practice. We really encourage you to take advantage of this time and practice in these breakout rooms. However, if you do not wish to be assigned to a break out room, we ask that you please leave the meeting prior to the breakout session to avoid us from having to rearrange the automatic room assignments generated by Zoom, which slows things down and cuts down on the practice time for others. We appreciate your understanding!

  These events will be recorded for teaching purposes only and will not be shared with participants. You must attend live to participate.  The content in any slides presented during the event are from the HT Level Notebooks so therefore the slides will not be shared with participants. 

  It is recommended that you have your Level 2 notebook available for reference during the practice group.

  You can request to download a digital notebook by logging in to the HT Support Portal here: https://htp.mykajabi.com/login. Go to Level 2 and then select Level Resources and "sign up" to receive the download.

  The Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson

  HT Reading Category: Energy Medicine/Holistic Health Care

  
  

  About the Book:

  In this newly revised and expanded edition of The Emotion Code, renowned holistic physician and lecturer Dr. Bradley Nelson skillfully lays bare the inner workings of the subconscious mind. He reveals how emotionally-charged events from your past can still be haunting you in the form of "trapped emotions"―emotional energies that literally inhabit your body. These trapped emotions can fester in your life and body, creating pain, malfunction, and eventual disease. They can also extract a heavy mental and emotional toll on you, impacting how you think, the choices that you make, and the level of success and abundance you are able to achieve. Perhaps most damaging of all, trapped emotional energies can gather around your heart, cutting off your ability to give and receive love.

  
  

  About the Author:

  DR. BRADLEY NELSON is the author of The Emotion Code, an incredible breakthrough method that makes it possible for anyone to release their emotional baggage for a happier and healthier life. He is recognized worldwide as one of the foremost experts in the field of bioenergetic medicine, and has taught his healing methods to acclaim around the world. He is the father of seven children and lives with his wife Jean in Southern Utah.
