about Janna Ustichenko
My Story
I am a certified energy healer, Reiki master, hypnotherapist, and artist. After studying Art and Economics in Odesa, Ukraine, I moved to Lebanon and then to beautiful British Columbia, where I have lived for over 20 years. I studied Graphic Design in Vancouver, plus I took several Reiki and Hypnotherapy courses. I worked in Marketing for many years, but my heart was always calling me to do things I love.
Art and spirituality have always been deeply intertwined for me, as they all stem from the same wellspring. When I channel that sacred energy, it compels me to share it, and it turns into paintings. I hope you can feel that healing, transformative energy in each painting. I am grateful for the incredible privilege of connecting with people through my artwork and touching their lives in ways I may never fully comprehend.
My morning starts with meditation during which I get insights and ideas for my paintings. There is always calming meditative music playing in the background when I paint, it helps the flow and I don’t even notice how time passes by. I never have a well-defined picture when I start, it’s usually just an idea and then it shapes in a process. Sometimes it’s surprising and not what I expected at all, and that’s what makes it fun.
Energy Healing
A few years after moving to Canada, I had a profound spontaneous Kundalini awakening which made me search for more information. Although my mom was an energy healer and I learned some technics from her, I continued learning and took several courses on energy healing and became a certified reiki master and hypnotherapist.
I took my first Reiki class at Threshold Reiki school in 2008 and have been doing Reiki since then but my day job was in marketing mostly in the health and wellness industry. I feel it’s time for me to follow my heart, do what I love and help people. My life experiences helped me to become who I am now, and it’s time to share my abilities and knowledge with others. The physical world, break ups, emotions, work stress, addictions, and spiritual awakening are not easy to deal with for a gentle soul. I know how hard it can get, and I am here to help.
