Review – Thamini Pillay

ByTraci French

Thamini is a great healer! Trained by Debra Stevens of Energencia, she is calm, very sweet and genuinely caring. She regularly comes to my yoga classes and, when she offered me the opportunity to experience her Rei-Flexology massage, I was intrigued. Sounds interesting, right? Well, of course I accepted!

On the day of my appointment, the window of my car decided it simply wasn’t going to close! When I arrived at Thamini’s home, we stood there rather puzzled, trying to figure out why the darn window wouldn’t cooperate. In her kindness, Thamini moved her own car out of the garage and allowed me to park mine safely inside while I had my treatment. How sweet is that?

It was such a lovely introduction to the caring nature that Thamini brings to everything she does. From the moment I arrived, she made me feel welcome and completely at ease. Her gentle personality and genuine concern for others immediately created a warm and comfortable atmosphere, and I was looking forward to experiencing the Rei-Flexology treatment for myself.

  • Conscious Drawing from Loes & Manfred from Source

    Sometimes the most meaningful gifts are the ones that remind us of who we truly are. When Loes Erdtsieck and Manfred Menke created a personal Conscious Drawing especially for me, I had no idea just how profound the experience would be. Based only on my name and birth date, they produced a beautiful and deeply personal artwork accompanied by an insightful written interpretation. Seeing the symbolism and descriptions come together was both fascinating and affirming. It became more than a drawing—it became a lasting reminder of my qualities, purpose, and ability to make a difference.
