Kind words from clients
“I have nothing but profoundly positive things to say about working with Fumiha. I was sent her way via recommendation from a friend and our work together was productive and meaningful. I struggle with severe bouts of atomic dermatitis, frequent constipation, and digestive problems. From the moment I sat down with Fumiha she instantly cast a safe and gentle environment to speak openly about my personal health struggles. During our time together, she would check-in regularly and continually explore new and alternative ways to confront my challenges. My eczema has been much more manageable on my arms and my back, with little-to-no breakouts in a year. I’ve also gotten into a much more stable routine with probiotics, supplements, and herbal tinctures to assist in my overall gut health. She gave me specific recommendations that I continue to consult regularly when it comes to dietary, lifestyle, and herbal guidances. Fumiha is a natural caretaker, a thoughtful and reflective observer, and overall an extremely skilled and pioneering herbalist who empowers you to mobilize your mind, body, and spirit into a greater state of balance. I am grateful to call her both a teacher and a friend and I can wholeheartedly say you will not be disappointed with your experience.”

“I met Fumiha through one of her miso classes and have worked with her over the past 2 years. She has been taking care of me during my first pregnancy and some skin issues with my baby.
We could not be in better hands!
She is a knowledgeable herbalist and was able to offer helpful solutions to the many different circumstances I have needed her help with. I live the medicines she makes for me, they are always very effective and while those help, she also offers advice on nutrition and the many other aspects that come into play while healing. She is always very accessible and available, even just for a quick phone call whenever I have something I want to run by her. A conversation with her is so enlightening, I have a very good understanding of the problem and how to resolve it. I value this a lot, she is capable of healing with her words.
Working with her has been such a wonderful journey and I am so happy miso brought us together! ”

“Working with Fumiha helped me to incorporate several positive habits into my lifestyle and to enact a routine that I found to be very helpful for both my mental and physical health. I especially loved the tinctures that she formulated for me.”
— Ariel Leon-Coeur
“Before working with Fumiha, I didn't like herb tea at all. But how she presented some herbs was so beautiful, and gave me brand new experience and result. She gave me a moment before sipping to enjoy the aroma and gave me more time to observe physical sensation after sip. I feel mellow and my mind was awakened clearly. it was vivid feeling. Her session is so informative and experiencial. Now I live with herb tea which support my concentration and calmness for my ideal life.”

“文葉さんとセッションを受けたのはもともと内臓の不調からでしたが、セッションを受ける中でいろいろと私の話を親身に聞いて下さり、自分では気付かなかったことにもいろいろ気付くことが出来ました。今では調子が前より良くなったように感じています！”
— Misa Mochizuki, Dancer
“以前は、何気なく飲んでいたハーブティーでしたが、彼女のセッションを通して、薬草の持っている力、効能などを学ばせて頂いています。 今では、ハーブがより一層身近な物になって、私たち家族の日比の暮らしに根付かせてくれました。 ふみはさんとは、心地よく会話が進むだけでなく、心の声にも耳を傾けてくれる頼れる存在です。子供達にも体調や気分にあわせて、飲みやすいものを教えてもらっていてとても気に入ってしまい今では、体調が悪い時などは、ふみはさんに聞いてと言われます。”
— Kimiko Kitano, Mother
“Fumiha is a sensitive and perceptive herbal practitioner. She was able to really listen to me in order to understand the problem and offer truly helpful guidance and suggestions. Just her presence alone is healing because she is calm, kind, intelligent, and full of an inner beauty that comes through clearly in her work. Fumiha is professional without feeling clinical or frigid. She is a very clear communicator and thoughtful person. Thank you for your help in a time when I needed it!”
— Kasia
“Fumiha was my first reiki session ever. After experiencing other reiki practitioners, I I continue visiting Fumiha because her reiki is powerful, her conversation is kind and welcoming, and she is knowledgable about so many aspects of the body, mind, and spirit. Her sessions feel less like appointments and more like visiting an old friend.”
— Danielle p.
“Fumiha approached me to do this kind of work (Reiki/Energy healing/cord cutting) with me as I told her about my situation. She offered a lot of information on what kind of work she can do so it was easy to know what I wished to do. Before the sessions she sat down with me and explained everything in detail which helped me a lot to feel less nervous. Her work is very intuitive, compassionate, and caring. I felt very much held the whole time, and safe. She also told me that things will start happening after energy work and they very much did. I would recommend Fumiha to anyone who wishes to do some serious self and energy work.”

ふみはさんは、自然を愛し、自然を大切にし、自然と強くつながっている人です。
私は私は自然の一部であることを忘れてしまいますが、彼女はハーバルコンサルテーションや色々なセッションを通して
自然とのつながりや埋もれてしまっていた自分の感覚や感情を取り戻す手助けをしてくれます。
ハーバルコンサルテーション：ふみはさんは私の体調や自分の気持ちなど私の調子や生
活環境について細かく聞き取ってくれて、自分の生活スタイルにあうハーブを調合してくれます。また、ハーブをとった後についてのフォローアップもしっかりとしてくれるので安心してコンサルテーションを受けることができました。
霊気：私にとって初めての霊気は、不思議な感覚でした。彼女がセッションを始めてから
何度か体に圧力を感じ涙が止まらなくなったり（彼女によるとチャクラが開いたとのことです）、
ふっと眠りについてしまったり、正直、とても疲れました。でも、そのあと、不思議なことに、
自分が必要であったりほしいと思っている情報がどんどん入ってくるようになりました。
霊気を続けることで、また自分の感覚や意思が明確になってくるのではないかと思います。
また、ぜひ霊気を受けてみたいと思いました。
エネルギーヒーリング(energy healing)：ふみはさんとの色々なセッションを通じて私が気づいたのは、
自分が音によって癒されたり浄化されやすい人間なのではないかということです。たいこの
音とともに彼女が声を出してくれたのですが、それがとても心地よく、体も心もすっきりとして気持ちになりました。

The Breathwork session overall exceeded my expectations. This work is absolutely transformational, I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences I've had. Everything was explained thoroughly, even before arriving to the session and at all times I felt supported, I felt in a safe space, calm, full of love and serenity. I was able to attain a moment of clarity and release that I've not had in a very long time. The experience was profound, Fumiha walked me through everything from start to finish with integrity, confidence, non judgmental, loving and leaving me with time at the end to transition.
— Anabel Rivera、Birthworker
Amazing! One of the best healing sessions I've ever experienced. I experienced expansion, deep shifts, connection to the spirit realm, insights, realizations. Fumiha is a loving space holder and skilled facilitator. She knew just how and when to go deep and come back up. It was beautiful!
— Liz Neves, herbalist, herbal educator, reiki and healing drum practitioner
I completed three Breathwork sessions with Fumiha. While each session followed the same or similar format, my internal experiences were radically different each time. Sometimes I was able to fully relax into the experience and go with whatever was coming up for me, and at other times I encountered a lot of resistance in my body and/or thinking mind. But even when resistance was present, I always, always felt held and supported in my experience. I also really appreciated the small rituals and grounding meditations before and after the session. Fumiha's communication style is both poetic and practical. I feel so grateful to have been able to experience these sessions; they've catalyzed some new processes of viewing my emotions, gave me some practical skills to work with, and gave me a space to feel supported at a time when I'm struggling with immense self-doubt and shame.
This was my first time doing such intensive breathwork, so I was unfamiliar with practically all of the terms and techniques. Fumiha explained each one carefully until I was able to understand and actually practice them. I never felt rushed or made to feel like I should be moving at a different pace than the one I am capable of.
During the sessions I felt held and able to be myself, even when I felt resistance. I knew that I could drift if I wanted to (and that I would be able to come back) or that if I felt stuck or scared Fumiha would also be there to help me with that. The ceremony before the session helped ground me (and also helped initiate me into trusting and understanding Fumiha as my support/guide for the duration of the Breathwork).
Immediately after the sessions I always felt very warm and content. As the weeks have gone by I've noticed myself trying out some of the tools Fumiha taught me, and thinking about and/or adapting some of the ideas that I learned during the Breathwork sessions into my life.
