Colleen Ariel is the founder and inspiration behind the enCHANTed Healing Center, a sacred heart space dedicated to healing through sound, ceremony, and connection with great spirit. She is a gifted Sound Healing Facilitator, Channeling Guide, and Transformational Mentor, with over 25 years of experience in alternative healing, energy medicine, and traditional Amazonian plant medicine.
Her personal path of healing began after surviving two life-changing car accidents, including one that left her with a traumatic brain injury, broken jaw, broken wrist, severe anxiety, and a recovery journey that lasted nearly five years. These experiences called her to the path of deep self-healing — combining sound therapy, sacred plant medicines, and many ancient spiritual practices. Through devotion, resilience, and guidance from spirit, Colleen transformed her pain into wisdom and now shares these healing tools with others on their journeys of awakening, recovery, and self-discovery.
Colleen’s Medicine Journey with the plant medicine Grandmother & Master Plant Dietas-
For over 17 years, Colleen has immersed herself in the sacred practice of working with Grangmorher Aya and dieta master plants. Her apprenticeship includes extensive study and ceremony with highly respected elders, maestros, and maestras from across the globe.
Experience Overview with Plant Medicines & Master Plant Dietas:
2008–2012: Participated in monthly ceremonies with a 76-year-old maestro, embarking on a profound healing journey to release trauma from a car accident and childhood wounds. This sacred work opened a path of transformation and renewal. Colleen continues to honor this sacred bond by sitting with her maestro whenever she can, to this day.

A Lifelong Devotion to Sacred Healing
Colleen holds certifications in Shiatsu Therapy, Reiki, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Kundalini Yoga, and the Four Winds Light Body School. She is a Shiatsu Therapist of 25 years with the Shiatsu Association of Ontario, and continues to expand her work through meditation, breathwork, yoga, conscious movement, nutrition, and vibrational medicine.
She has also worked alongside her Indigenous Chief Elders in Canada, the USA, Costa Rica, and Peru in Temazcal (sweat lodge) ceremonies, and has participated in Sundances, Long Dances, Moon Dances, and Rain Dances for over 20 years. She has been ceremonially gifted the chanupa pipe by her elder Chief in Canada, which she carries and uses in prayer, blessings, and connection with the spirit world in all her ceremonies.
She is also a graduate volunteer of the Gold Ray Twin Flames etheric body training with Mel Brand & Nicole Hibbs, a soul path of embodying balanced divine masculine & feminine Union within, a star lineage she has remembered.
Sound as Medicine
Music has been a guiding force in Colleen’s life since childhood. Encouraged by her musical parents, she began piano lessons at age seven and discovered early on the healing power of sound. Today, her sound journeys include channeled light languages, Shipibo icaros, star songs, and earth harmonics, all woven into unique healing transmissions.
She has released two healing music albums —
Emerald City Wave Sounds (2006), a crystal bowl vibrational CD
Weaving Wings (2015), an ethereal sound healing collection
Colleen's third album-"Soul's Remembrance" Is now available to listen to on all music platforms, a soft waterfall release, with each song gently arriving on all platforms, one by one each week.
