The cultivation of a mind/body connection, to spur personal growth and bring joy into daily life, is the focus at the Healing Garden. We offer integrated holistic and complementary services including life coaching, reiki, mind/body connectivity, meditation and nutritional counseling.

Featuring facilitated introspection with ancient eastern wisdom combined with a healing touch and a peek at your inner-self in the form of Wei Chi Healing (think reiki meets Dr. Phil).

SONYA MERRITT is a native of the seacoast and a lifelong student. She received her undergraduate degree from the University of New Hampshire, her graduate degree

in Education from Southern New Hampshire University.

Sonya’s first career spanned thirteen years at

a Fortune 500 financial services company. After a series of progressively more responsible positions she was promoted to an executive management consultant. An adept disciple of human dynamics and communication, Sonya made her mark by helping to align behaviors and actions with goals.

Along with Tommy Hensel and Dawn Darby, she is one of the co-founders of Wei Chi Healing. Her insightful perspective, analytical finesse and compassionate reasoning are now being introduced to effect pronounced personal change at the Healing Garden.

Sonya is a member of the International Association of Reiki Professionals. She lives in Durham with her family and is thrilled that the once private dream of a community wellness center, is now reality - a dream come true.

Cultivating mind/body connection.

Nuturing personal growth.

Building community.

Harvesting joy.

The stepping stones are paths of introspection used to question and to ultimately understand patterns of behavior so that meaningful change can occur.

Awareness

The identification of limits and boundaries:

Are you looking for something, but not sure what?

Are you feeling stuck, yearning for a change?

How would you describe yourself? Your life?

Perspective

The exploration of how these limits impact your life:

What is enough?

How do you measure success?

Is this all there is?

Growth

The navigation through and past obstacles:

Where do you want to go? What's next?

What are you afraid of? How does this impact your life?

When did you stop growing? Why?

Balance

The cultivation of a new equilibrium:

How do you put your values into practice?

When do you know you've 'got it'?

How do you continue to honor yourself?

Peace

The appreciation of now:

How do you define it?

How do you embody it?

How do you live truth?
