Holistic healer

Eve Crowe was in her mid-20s when she first explored holistic medicine to help her with health issues. She was well within two weeks, which inspired her to want to help others. “I went from being a travel agent to assisting others with their health and well-being,” she said. Crowe, who has more than 20 years’ experience as a shamanic healer, moved from the Bay Area to Chico in February. “I put the intention into my meditation: Where can I live that has both a country and a city feeling? Everyone I met started talking about Chico, and that got my curiosity going,” she said. “That’s what happens when you have an intention and meditate on something and put it out there to the universe that you want to make a change. Things start happening to move you in that direction.” Crowe can be reached at evacrowe@yahoo.com or www.eevebcrowe.com.

What do you do as a holistic practitioner?

I have three basic healings that I do: shamanism, clearing core beliefs and patterns, and aligning the subconscious mind with the conscious mind. Within six months, most people see their lives change. I can read people really well—I can tell just by seeing someone what their core issues are. With every person it’s different as to which techniques I use. I love animals and do the same healings on animals that I do on people.

What is shamanism?

Shamanism is an ancient form of healing where you’re healing the soul from past traumas that can create pain in the body, low self-esteem, or life issues, such as money or relationship issues.

And you also teach workshops and coach?

I teach reiki and shamanism and do life coaching. My clients are all over the world—I do phone sessions, and I have an office in Chico where I can meet with clients.

How did your first workshop in Chico go?

I had a class on shamanism and power animals the weekend before last, and 22 people showed up. That let me know people here are open to and thirsty for shamanism.

What’s a success story?

There was a man who was working at a bank, and his dream was to own his own investment company, but he grew up hearing “there’s not enough money.” We worked on removing limiting beliefs and aligned him to believing he could have his own company in six months and could make a million dollars his first year, and that’s what happened. My best client is someone who wants to make a change in life.
