About

Lee Wai Ching, 64 earth years, is an intuitive healer, certified holistic health counsellor and bodywork therapist with over 25 years of adult experience in the field of natural and holistic healing. She is descended from a lineage of healers from both the paternal and maternal sides.

Her great-grandfather was the Chinese physician to the Sultan of Selangor, Malaysia and the Royal household. Her mother was one of the earliest members of the Singapore Natural Health Society in Singapore and environmental activists in the 70s. Her aunts are presently active in the charismatic Catholic movement in Malaysia. She has also inherited the gift of the expression of sacred languages for healing. Her practice in Qi Gong, and Tai Chi began in a temple in Singapore with her mother during her adolescence.

She was initiated into Transcendental Meditation in 1975, furthering her into a journey of exploration of the nature of Consciousness. Her travels around the world as a flight attendant allowed this opportunity to widen. Her expansion in cross-cultural immersion deepened with a year's residence in Europe and 13 years in the Bay Area, California.

She has combined her innate abilities in healing with personal mystical experiences and academic study of the phenomena and practice.

Her certification includes accredited undergraduate programs in Cross-cultural Healing, Creative Writing, and Somatics. Others include Comparative Religions, Language for Healing, Massage Therapy, Vibrational Medicine, Certification in Reiki Mastery and Magnified Healing.

She created the StarFlower Infinity Qi Gong and Temple Dance format of movement therapy initially. These expressions have transformed to be called Infinity Quantum Qi Gong , and TranscenDance.

She also has an accredited graduate certification in Research and Consulting in the School of Transformational Learning from the California Institute of Integral Studies including field experience to China. Her passion is in discovering synergies and correspondences in the human condition and psyche, metaphysics and science that converge to the understanding of universal intelligence and unification.

She works with highly traumatized clients such as sexually abused women and children, and people with difficult life challenges. Her success with physical conditions attests to the appropriateness of psychic/spiritual healing in integrative medicine. The cases and testimonials are being documented.

She still commutes between Singapore, Jakarta, Bali, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and other areas of the globe for her personal and planetary healing work.

She is presently writing and developing the concept themes and coordinating the establishments of healing centers in the Pacific Rim.

Currently, she is developing training programs in Subtle Energy Healing for spa therapists/ aestheticians as well as the medical profession. She often presents on well being for corporate clients.
