Jan Wakefield: Midwife to the Spirit World

Jan grew up in Pittsburg, PA and spent a lot of her childhood sick. The climate of PA did not bode well for her, and she had upper respiratory issues most of her life.

Eventually Jan moved to Arizona, which was better for her physical body, but then she developed chronic migraines. In Arizona Jan was introduced to alternative medicines and techniques including, chiropractic care and acupuncture. For about 10 years she ‘wrote off’ allopathic medicine and began her journey into a more natural route and eventually into ‘energy medicine.’

Jan originally had dreams of becoming a pilot in the military, but her short stature and vision issues prohibited those plans, so instead, she went into teaching. She started at the elementary level but after 10 years, Jan found higher education to be a better fit and taught at the college level for over 25 years.

Jan had a spiritual awakening when she was very young and sought out a deeper connection with God. Through her healing journey, she studied a variety of religions and eventually found herself studying the shamanic healings of the indigenous people of Arizona.

Today, Jan is an author, coach, and public speaker. She often refers to her spiritual practice as being a midwife to the spirit world and she loves helping others go within and transform their lives through mindfulness and meditation.

Tune in for a discussion that may spark a desire, or continuation, of your own transformation and inner healing.
