About Ankke OrrynAnkke Orryn is an integrative nutrition therapist, medical intuitive, spiritual medium/channel, and empathic energy healer and counselor; a natural health advocate based in whole foods nutrition and nourishment, a family/systemic constellations facilitator, and a teacher of embodied contemplative movement practices and meditation. She also performs as a dancer, actor, and model from time to time. Ankke holds a BA in Dance and Movement Studies from Naropa University and a certificate in Integrative Clinical Nutrition Therapy from Seven Bowls School of Nutrition, Nourishment, and Healing where she studied western, eastern, functional, and plant medicine rooted in the psychology of nourishment, as well as herbalism, energy healing, and shamanic practices. Since then, she has been diligently studying and developing her innate abilities as a psychic, medium, channel, and medical intuitive. In her search to find the most helpful therapies for her clients, she has explored and integrated many modalities of mind, body and spirit into a truly holistic way of addressing the challenges of those she works with. She is a unique holistic health professional who uses an alchemy of the aforementioned skills and tools, as well as others, in order to help her clients heal, transform, and grow into their potential. She is practical and science-based as well as intuitive, and all her work is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual she works with.
Ankke was born in Manitoba, Canada, and moved to the "Untied" States of America during middle school. After spending many years in confusion and suffering, bouncing from one healer and spiritual tradition to another, and carrying along a general sense of self-loathing, she finally came to the conclusion that she and everything else in the universe is nothing more or less than absolute love, joy, and freedom (even though it doesn't always feel like it to our limited human ego brains, and we are often blocked from being able to experience our lives in that way). Her explorations of holistic health and wellness have penetrated many levels of mind/body/spirit/soul connection, opening her to the realization that we have to lovingly bring all of ourselves to the table in order to truly heal and grow. She gently and compassionately encourages her clients to get real with themselves, learn to love themselves unconditionally, and to be curious about their own experience of the human condition. In this way, Ankke hopes to help others heal and realize their true potential via the understanding that we're all stuck here for the time being with no feasible way out, so we might as well make the best of it by living a healthy, grateful lifestyle full of Love and appreciation. Her deepest desire is to help people let go of what is keeping them stuck and in pain, and support them as they integrate into realizing their happiest, healthiest, most free and radiant/vibrant selves! |
About the Site |
This website is brand new and truly is a work in progress, but I've got to start somewhere, and it's time to get started now!
Due to my own very human tendencies toward perfectionism (I think many of you can relate what I'm talking about!), I've been putting off publishing it for ages because I didn't know how to get it perfect... So this is a beginning. Any constructive and loving feedback or help is greatly appreciated! As far as I can see from my current vantage point we all are works in progress, as is the process of life. In that spirit, I will most likely be changing, adding, modifying, and dialing in this website a lot over the next few months, but I just want to have SOMETHING up to welcome you in the meantime! I am so glad you found me, and I am so happy to connect with and serve you as best I can in your healing and personal growth and transformation journey. Please contact me if you are interested in signing up for the 2015 Fall Cleanse, and/or to schedule a free 15 minute complimentary discovery session to discuss how I can best serve you in your journey to health, healing, and spiritual wholeness. |

"Ankke has helped me significantly in educating me about how my diet choices (and emotional state) can affect my overall health. After finding out I had some medical issues, she helped me to make the best choices of what to eat to support my health and prevent future flare-ups. She also helped guide me in thinking about my issues in a more positive light."
-Chloe Henning, Santa Cruz, CA ================================ More coming soon!... ================================ Here's one that's just for fun (though still completely true!) in the meantime until some more of my former and current clients write up their experiences of working with me... Abby is a former rescue dog who, when she came to live at her permanent home with Bev and Jim, was afraid of a great many things including walking on grass (as opposed to pavement) and falling autumn leaves. After only a couple of exploratory healing hikes in the woods with Ankke, (one of which involved Abby falling off of a log into a bog - an exhilarating experience that caused her to realize that she could survive and conquer a lot more than falling leaves), she is now an intrepid wilderness explorer and tenacious chaser of chipmunks. We love you Abby! |
