ABOUT YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Besides being an ordained minister, Neal Harris is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, with a Master’s Degree in Applied Psychology, and a diplomat of the American Psychotherapy Association.  He is the managing director of Relax4Life, a holistic education and services center and has been a workshop leader in the holistic health and self-enrichment fields since 1985.

 Neal’s experience stems from training in both the United States and India.  In addition, he was also a member of the first bodywork team invited to China to study Tuina, a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine and massage.  Neal has been teaching traditional Usui Reiki for over 10 years and been providing Reiki therapy for over 20 years.  Neal is also certified as both a Quantum-Touch® practitioner and instructor.

 Besides his book, “Pocket Stress Manager”, Neal is the author of both a relaxation CD and videotape program.  He is also the originator of the Earth-Wisdom Labyrinth; Illinois’ first permanent outdoor labyrinth located in Elgin. This labyrinth is a huge outdoor rock structure, open to the public, and patterned after the famous cathedral labyrinth located in Chartres, France.  Neal is a creator of other public labyrinths, fabric traveling labyrinths, wood finger labyrinths, kits/manuals for creating outdoor labyrinths and leads labyrinth workshops.  He is a founding member of the Labyrinth Society and a Certified Veriditas Facilitator.

 In his private practice, Neal assists those individuals who are experiencing a variety of concerns including life-affirming conditions such as Diabetes, Cancer, Heart Disease as well as anxiety and more general concerns.  To promote healing on many levels, he uses relaxation and meditation training, EFT, Reiki, Quantum-Touch® as well as his own modality “labyrinth counseling” (using a specialized 2-person finger labyrinth design known as the IntuipathÒ). This work explores integrative medical options, as well as the psychology and spirituality of illness and recovery.
