IET is an angel healing energy modality founded by Stephen Thayer which he started teaching in 1994. He worked with people for years as a Reiki Master, when he began to receive angelic messages that formed an integrated system he eventually named Integrated Energy Therapy. It is a simple method where you “heart-link” with the angels and receive assistance while performing an energy healing session.

During a session the practitioner moves from one area of the body to another with light touch or by working directly with the client’s energy field with the assistance of angelic healing energy. Dense energy stagnations such as stuck emotions and pain are essentially vacuumed up and then replaced with higher vibrational energy. Such an example would be removing the energy of fear and imprinting the energy of safety. This can accelerate and deepen the integration process and allow the client to experience states of being that may have eluded them in the past due to a trauma history.

IET is an easy-to-learn modality that is strong and quick while still remaining gentle. I have found it to be profoundly transformational and excellent for working with people who are ready to shift deep trauma without the need to re-experience it.

If you've read my about page, you will know that my first encounter with IET and angel healing was unexpected. I was asked to join a friend who had a session scheduled with a healer; I was just tagging along, and it wasn't even supposed to be a session for me. After brief introductions, I sensed several angelic presences arrive that felt very loving. I was speechless.

I have always felt that spirituality and religion were important to me since childhood. I grew up as a Christian, so the concept of angels is not something that was foreign to me. That being said, I don't think I was expecting to sense the beautiful loving energy which was there in that room when I went to the session to observe.

Accepting the idea of angels as a belief or an intellectual construct was very different from accepting the reality of what I was sensing right in front of me in that room. I was being challenged to accept that I was experiencing something my logical mind couldn’t explain. These healing angels had shown up in that room and had come to help with compassion and unconditional love. When I felt the love that they brought, the fear and resistance I was holding melted away. That was a real game changer for me.

After receiving a few IET sessions, I started to understand that there is Divine love and healing available for me, and it is available for each and every one of us. Many of us have closed ourselves off from this support which is always there for us without even realizing we have done so. One day the healer I was working with suggested that I give working with the angels a try… “Maybe ask the angels to work with you, just see how it goes…?” I remember looking at her, in disbelief that she would even consider such a thing. I thought, “Maybe she could do it, but could I?” I had curiosity about learning more, but I also had doubts about whether or not I could actually learn how to do that type of healing and if it would even be appropriate for me to try to do so.

I had a hard time believing in myself enough to give it a try, but I had come to trust her judgment by that point. A couple days later I decided to give it a go and see what would happen. I began with what I would call prayer. I asked God and the healing angels for help and healing. To my shock and amazement, I immediately sensed a beautiful, supportive, angelic energy arrive as a healing session began to unfold. After the session finished and I expressed my deep gratitude, I knew that my life had changed.

I was galvanized to learn more. I continued my IET journey with the various different levels of training, which was very helpful for me as it gave me a structure for how to heart-link and facilitate a session safely. I got a bit obsessed with it. I made it part of my regular routine, spending 30min to 90min each day as part of an IET session on myself or others. I continued this most days until I got to about 700hrs of working with the energy. By then I had familiarized myself with the process enough that I stopped keeping track of the time I was spending with this beautiful energy.

The angelic energy of IET has a certain bright, luminous and numinous quality to it, which is very elevated in vibration and deeply spiritual in nature. I think, more than anything, what I noticed right away was the loving, compassionate and supportive quality that comes through during the sessions.

I had a lot of fear surrounding energy work in general, as I think many people do who are being called onto this healing path. I believe the key is not necessarily where the fear comes from, but rather how we respond to it. I had associated fear with energy work so strongly that it had prevented me from looking into it for a long time. When I began experiencing the angelic energy of IET, it was so supportive, loving and strong yet still gentle at the same time. I felt safe enough to actually let go of quite a bit of fear. I didn't need that fear anymore, and I was able to begin taking steps of transformation in my life.

In IET, we are heart-linking and asking for assistance from God and specific healing angels. There is an inherent relational quality to it, which is very beneficial for me. Working with the angelic energy helped me to realize that I am supported and loved in this healing work, as I am loving and supporting others. During a session part of what we are doing is spending time in these states of love, acceptance and forgiveness, which might be challenging to access in our everyday life. Basking in these states experientially is essential as it helps us remember what it feels like to access and hold those beautiful emotions. The angels can model and support to help us in that process.

When I facilitate a self-healing session with IET, it feels very effortless. It feels like I'm allowing myself to be loved and supported, and I'm welcoming being taken care of which can be so hard for us to find and receive in our lives. Much of this is individual, and you might experience the energy in a different way from how I do. It is clearly beautiful energy that is strong and gentle. It has assisted me with incredible transformation in my life, and I've seen it assist others with transformation in their lives, too.

If you're curious at all about IET, please reach out. I would love to hear about where you are in your healing journey and if there is any way that I can support you in the phases that you're going through.

Yes, some IET instruction can be provided online. I teach the Healing Angels of the Human Energy Field, Steps to Transformation and Higher Steps to Transformation classes online.

The IET basic, intermediate and advanced levels include an in-person attunement process, so these are only offered in-person at this time. If the instruction methodology is expanded in the future to allow online teaching of these classes, I would be happy to start teaching them that way. For now I am only able to offer them to in-person students.

The Healing Angels of the Human Energy Field class is a wonderful introduction to IET and energy healing in general. I teach it over a number of weeks via online video calls. We learn to heart-link and connect with the energy of various angels as we discover the healing that is being offered to each one of us.

After completing this class, the natural next steps are the basic, intermediate and advanced levels of IET. You will review heart-linking and receive an attunement in each level that will make it easier to connect with the angelic frequency more strongly. You will receive teaching with more in-depth details of working with the human energy body, including practice sessions on your own and with others.

I’ve found that these are deeply spiritual and transformative days for students, and what they take with them after the workshops continues to support them favorably as they continue forward in their life's healing journey. If you are seeking self-healing, or are interested in doing healing work with others, learning IET and how to work with the angels can be an amazing part of that deepening process. It certainly has been for me.

It took me two years to complete the workshops through Master level, but it could be done faster if desired. As I moved through the levels, I worked with the energy most days until I felt I had familiarized myself with the process, methods and techniques enough to do them in a flow state without unnecessary thinking.

I'm sure everyone has different amounts of time they need to achieve mastery at this skill set. For me, it is very important to do this work from a place of direct experience so that I am able to answer questions with integrity rather than supposition or guess work.

Anyone can learn Integrated Energy Therapy, even those who do not have a belief in angels or a religious background. The energy can meet you where you are and assist in healing, but I have found that the people who are most attracted to this healing energy modality are those who are either curious about angels or would like to learn how to connect more deliberately with the angelic energetic frequency.

However, there are some people it might not be ideal for. If you have life circumstances that are already overwhelming and adding to them might feel like too much to handle, then it is important to consider what makes sense for you right now. Energy healing could accelerate the transitions you are going through, which could be a good thing if you want to move forward, but waiting until a different time of life when things are a bit more settled and you feel supported might be the easier path. You know your circumstances best.

If you are new to energy work, the best way forward would be to have a few sessions where you receive healing from a skilled practitioner. This would allow them to start off with a gentle session, to see how you respond, while adjusting according to your needs. A customized individual approach like this would be a safer way to begin the journey rather than trying to start off by doing an accelerated training course.

If you have a personal history of deep trauma or mental instability (such as schizophrenia), working with energy and the invisible world might be more challenging as it requires trusting your perceptions. If reality testing is difficult, then tuning in with your intuition more deeply could add more confusion. As you practice and learn to work with your energetic senses, they can open up more, which can lead to changes in how you experience the world. This can be overwhelming to people at times. It is possible exploring what energy work has to offer by starting with an intensive method might move too quickly, and something slower and gentler would be a better fit for you.

Energy work has met me where I am each step of the way, but on a few rare occasions I felt like things were moving too quickly for me to process properly. In those cases, I literally said out loud something to the effect that I needed things to slow down because I needed more time to process or integrate whatever was being worked through. These requests have always been respected. It is important to know you are able to set the pace of your healing process, and as long as you are willing to dive back in when you are able to do so, there is nothing wrong with asking for what you know you need in the moment.

Integrated Energy Therapy can be deeply transformative as it assists you with connecting deeply with your authentic self to uncover your alignment and soul purpose. Sometimes when we have deep traumas, addictions or ancestral patterns that we are working through, going deep quickly and working with them can seem like it's too much if we haven’t learned and integrated skills to ground and stabilize first. This training can bring up a lot of things that might not have been serving your highest good, and they really do need to change but trying to change, them all at once can feel overwhelming. The last thing that I would want to do as an instructor is put you in a position where you feel that what is going on in your life is just too much to handle.

If you are considering doing training with me and are concerned about this, my suggestion would be to reach out. We can have a conversation where I could answer specific questions you might have. I know some people who needed a few sessions first to get their energy system optimized and stabilized before it was appropriate to continue with energetic training. It doesn't have to take a long time, but it is definitely a good way to go. You want to have a strong foundation before you launch into something that can bring about deep transformation.

It is important to go through your own discernment process and decide for yourself whether you feel you are ready in this stage of life to take that step to move deeper on your journey. Energy work can certainly help delving deeper, but the timing has to be right. Even if something is the perfect thing for you—timing matters. If it's not coming at the right time for you, it is not going to be ideal. Only you know best what you can handle and when the right timing is in your life. I can share my expertise and perspective, but at the end of the day you're the one who's making the decision. You know whether you’re committed to welcoming change, healing and transformation into your life.

I do not provide psychotherapy, so I may ask you to find someone who can provide individualized mental health support before the training begins. This way you will already have a working relationship with a professional if something comes up which needs urgent attention or cannot be addressed appropriately in the group format of the training.

I look forward to answering any questions you might have and supporting you as you explore your journey with the healing angels.
