Although growing numbers of Americans are turning to alternative health, it remains out of reach for many who are either too busy to schedule an appointment or who live in holistically under-served parts of the country. For these folks, Harmonia Health (www.HarmoniaHealth.com) has the answer: wellness consultations and energy healing by email and telephone.

"We want to make good health easily accessible to people who either don’t have access to a holistic practitioner or who find it difficult to take time off from work or child rearing in the middle of the day," said Kelly Moore, the company’s founder and Registered Naturopath. "We can even send distance energy healing and can help guide you in developing a yoga practice."

Moore and her partner, Al Colley, know firsthand what it’s like to try and manage demanding careers in a way that promotes health rather than sacrifices it. Both created highly successful careers in government and national security. Moore worked for the United Nations in the former Yugoslavia during the wars in the mid-90s, served as Press Secretary to Sen. Joe Lieberman, joined the State Department’s Counterterrorism Office following 9/11 and served as a border security and terrorist travel expert on the 9/11 Commission. Colley flew fighter jets in the Air Force and, working as a consultant, managed several international security programs at the State Dept. and for the Department of Homeland Security.

"These jobs were high stress, long hours, lots of travel, eating on the run and barely having enough time to sleep let alone exercise properly or relax," Kelly said. "My lifestyle wasn’t very conducive to living a balanced, healthy life. I needed a new approach and my search led me to holistic health. What I liked about it was its emphasis on prevention, balancing the body, mind and spirit and using natural remedies to promote wellness."   

Over the course of many years, Moore and Colley pursued formal studies and training in holistic health. Moore is now a Registered Naturopath, Holistic Health Practitioner, yoga instructor and Quantum-Touch® Practitioner. Colley is a Reiki Master Teacher and also a Quantum-Touch Practitioner.

"Our philosophy is grounded in the belief that we enjoy optimal health when we adopt preventative, alternative health practices that promote harmony among the body, mind and spirit and with the environment," Moore said.

Harmonia Health offers a range of holistic health services to guide individuals, families, groups and businesses to improved health and wellness, including comprehensive wellness evaluations, information on natural alternatives for specific ailments, yoga, energy healing (Reiki and Quantum-Touch®), meditation and breath work.

"We think it’s important for people to take responsibility for their health—otherwise who will?—and so we also offer a series of educational seminars on a wide range of holistic health topics including nutrition and supplements, herbal remedies, homeopathy and aromatherapy," Moore said.

In addition, the Harmonia Health website (www.HarmoniaHealth.com) provides information about holistic health and the environment and offers inspirational quotes and stories to keep you motivated. It also has links to other healthy living websites. Harmonia Health practitioners offer private sessions in their Washington, D.C. location and are available for speaking engagements.

"Wellness is our natural state," Colley said. It’s about maintaining balance and harmony of your body, mind and spirit and the natural world around us. My career up until this point had been about serving my country. In this journey I have discovered new ways of serving that involve helping others use their own natural healing powers to bring themselves into balance and enjoy a healthy, happier life."
