News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon
More than two dozen people from across the Pacific Northwest gathered at Sisters Art Works last weekend to develop their intuition about health.
The two-day seminar that some traveled to from out-of-state was led by internationally recognized “health intuitive” Karen Grace Kassy, who lives in Central Oregon.
Kassy defines intuition as “knowing something without knowing how you know it.” She believes that intuition is not merely a gift that some people have and others don’t. She considers it a skill that can be developed and refined with techniques that quiet the mind and open a person to insights.
Health professionals including a doctor, several massage therapists and a personal trainer attended the seminar, along with many lay people. Their purpose is to gain the ability to “intuit” health problems in themselves and others.
Kassy is adamant that health intuition “is not a substitute for medical care.”
She noted that people are “supposed to check in with their doctor. (Intuition) is just a great way to get a heads-up, to stay on top of your health. This might give you insight, but it is not your medical care.”
This straightforward approach may make this form of alternative health care more acceptable to many medical professionals, who have allowed Kassy to work in their offices.
Kassy also has a background and approach that seem to make conventional practitioners more comfortable with her work. She has a background as a corporate executive from a conservative upbringing who had a career recording conferences for a division of a major company before she took a completely different path.
She started her current work in an effort to identify her own health problems.
“When I started as a health intuitive I wasn’t healthy,” she said.
In trying to help herself, she found a path to helping others — and a new way of life.
“My life is nothing like what I thought it would be,” she said. “I never figured it would be my regular job. Over time, it’s built up to be my full-time career.”
That career has taken her around the world for seminars and made her the author of the best-selling book “Health Intuition.”
“My goal is to bring intuition into the mainstream,” she said.
