Valeria Teles interviews Kate Vredevoogd — the author of “Words of Wellbeing, A to Z.”
Kate Vredevoogd is also a blogger, artist, spiritual explorer and healer, energy worker, and enthusiastic student of Earth School. She was born in Washington State, where she received degrees in Linguistics and Spanish, and has spent the past nine years in Southern Spain. She's recently moved back to the Pacific Northwest.
Her books are titled From the Same Quiver and Words of Wellbeing, A to Z, which is also available in Spanish with the title Palabras de Bienestar.
Energy work and shamanism are healing modalities that have been called to her since childhood. She began her healing journey by receiving the three Reiki attunements. She then went on to study under spiritual guides and masters of different lineages from Mesoamerica and South America.
Kate is a recognized Cacao Medicine Carrier and Sahumadora following the Mayan tradition and has been ordained as a Shamanic Priestess by Q'uero High Priest Pampamisayoq Nicolás Pauccar. She holds cacao ceremonies and combines the heart-opening plant medicine with shamanic practices from the Andean Cosmovision, as well as using drums and medicinal songs to further enhance the healing experience.
Her work and her writing focus on building community, respectfully learning about and elevating indigenous teachings, personal empowerment, and connection.
