Dena Marie, as described by one of her clients, is “a personal trainer for your spirit.” With a background in fitness for 14 years, she helped her clients with personal issues such as weight gain, self esteem and motivation. Today she lifts her clients’ spirits (energy) with Reiki (hands on healing), guided imagery and chakra tune ups. While maintaining a lighthearted approach, she teaches others how to break through their energetic blocks and frustrations. In her new book “Our Energy Matters” she shares personal success stories and educates the reader on how to manifest their heartfelt intentions and desires. Depression literally means “low spirits,” today she lifts the spirits of Snohomish and calls herself an “Energetic Counselor.” Dena doesn’t heal you she gives you the tools to heal yourself- body, mind and spirit.

Good Morning Dena,
 
We've never met but I want to say thank you.... what for you ask? Let me explain.
 
Yesterday morning I went in to see Steve at Gathering Grove and grab a coffee. In passing I had asked him how your workshop Tuesday night went. I had wanted to attend but I teach a class every Tuesday night and couldn't. I asked him if the two of you were talking on doing it again and when that might be. He said that the two of you hadn't and I was a bit disappointed as I really was interested in attending.
 
That's when he introduced me to your workbook and crystal sets! I bought one, I took it home, I couldn't put it down.... I spent most of the day reading your book, even stayed up late to finish it.
Re-read a few places to make sure I was getting the concept.
 
I love crystals and rocks, have quite a few... but I had never really understood Chakras. Your book puts them in a way I can understand. I also have never seen them paired with other forms of divination. This helped greatly too!
 
Long story short, I handed my husband the little red bag of crystals this morning and asked him to pick seven. Low and behold his 2nd, 3rd and 4th Chakras are completely blocked!!! And he is experiencing all most everything that you talk about in your book; from health concerns to mental, emotional and spiritual concerns. And here I was just thinking he has been a big jerk the last couple of years... hee, hee, hee.
 
So he has agreed to do some of the 'homework' things in your book.
 
Sometimes we put our heart and soul into a projects and never know how they touch people we never meet. Just thought you should get some kudos on this one. In this little way you touched my life, thank you for having the courage to put this workbook together and publish it on your own.
 
Thanks again,
Melody Anderson 

Dena Marie is great! I've had Reiki before but nothing like this. I could actually feel the energy coming out from her hands. It was warm and powerful but also soothing and relaxing. Our session really made me more balanced and focused and her post-session questions and comments also helped by offering some added advice on where I needed to concentrate my own thoughts and energies. It was a real healing experience; one I hope to repeat in the very near future. Thanks so much Dena for your amazing light and energy! Carol G ~ Stanwood


I experienced a true miracle working with Dena Marie. After suffering for several years with sciatica and lower back pain, I decided to try an alternative approach. I have been through physical therapy, chiropractic, had cortizone shots, and I have tried many different pain medicines, topicals and anti-inflammatories with little or no relief. I am pregnant so not only was it getting worse from the extra weight and strain, I did not want to take the pain medicine for fear of farming my baby. I had a fairly quick Reiki treatment with Dena Marie, and it was done in a public place so I wasn't sure how things would turn out. To my surprise and relief, that day my pain was significantly less, and after about three days of practicing the advice she gave me based on my crystal reading, the pain completely went away! I can not even make the pain happen again if I try. It's very strange, and so I think this is a true miracle. Kelly ~ Whidbey Island

Dear Dena - Thanks for the crystal reading you gave me. I had always wanted the goal of a successful career as an artist , but it wasn't until I focused on truly defining that goal , with your reading . When I started naming the components of success , I was able to create more of it for myself. Thanks , Diane ~ Snohomish

I truly enjoyed the book "Our Energy Matters-The Art of Crystal Reading. I am able to easily use this book to help me in my own personal readings. I met with Dena for the first time about 4 years ago at which time I was seeking counsel on some issues regarding weight. Thinking this would be just a hypnotherapy session... boy was I in for a surprise when she sat me down and had me draw stones. Taking the time to carefully explain what each stone meant and why I had drawn it. Astounded at all this person knew from only 7 small stones, she had advice on how to help myself re-balance my life. I took her little paper home and did my homework and soon returned to see what I could do next. After many more sessions and a lot of wonderful times sitting across the table from her my soul grew much more than I could have ever imagined. So I took the class and learned this wonderful art. I use the knowledge I gained with my children, in my personal relationships, and even occasionally in my profession as a Massage Therapist. The information in this book is very powerful and insightful. It is truly the key to learning how to heal yourself.
