Merging Ancient Wisdom with Modern Medicine

Utilizing Ketamine Therapy, Breath Work, Yin Yoga and Meditation

Informed by over 20 years of clinical experience as a physician, and inspired by his training with the Q’ero healers of Peru, Nathan Teismann, M.D. founded Tree of Life Healing Center for the Soul to serve clients seeking to heal from a variety of emotional, physical and spiritual conditions. Our work recognizes that while modern Western medicine and traditional psychotherapy play important roles in managing illness, frequently the root causes of one’s symptoms are not fully addressed. Thus, our practice seeks to unite the power of ancient ceremonial medicine with modern medical science through the use of breathwork, meditation, yin yoga, vision quests, and ketamine-assisted therapy.

“The soul always knows what to do to heal itself.

The challenge is in silencing the mind.”

~ Caroline Myss

1:1 Adult Meditation

Many believe they are unable to meditate because they cannot sit still or “silence” their thoughts. These in-person sessions dispel common myths, review the fundamentals of meditation, and focus on universal techniques that will allow participants to liberate themselves from their own limitations and connect more deeply with their Soul. Once this connection takes place, one is able to tap into the innate inner wisdom that is often drowned out by the distractions of the mind.

1:1 Children’s Meditation

Children today face enormous pressure from school, parents, peers, and social media. Meditation helps them reconnect with their deeper nature, quieting the mind and fostering stillness, awareness, and creativity. We recommend a minimum of 6 to 8 one-on-one sessions for your child to establish their own meditation practice.

Group Breathwork Training

The power of the breath to heal emotional and physical disease and open doors to deeper awareness cannot be overstated. During these sessions, basic Pranayama (Sanskrit for “breath control”) and modified Holotropic breathing techniques are taught in a group setting. We often recommend attending at least 2-3 breath-work sessions before beginning a meditation practice in order to bring the functioning of the mind under conscious control and to elevate one’s inner energy environment.

Chant for Peace Circles

"Om" is believed to represent the unified consciousness of the universe, the primordial sound of all Life. Chanting "Om" stimulates the vagus nerve, leading to relaxation, reduced stress, and a sense of inner peace. In Yoga, "Om" is considered a powerful mantra that can help connect individuals to their higher self and the divine. 

Chanting Circles are groups between 3 - 15.
