Born on the lunar new year (the first new moon) in the interstices of the year of the pig and the year of the rat, Janice has often occupied and been interested in the spaces between. As a child, Janice often sensed and saw spirits, or magically found missing objects for strangers. Her elders were often bewildered by her expansive intuition and expressed concerns for her prophetic dreams. As an adult, she didn’t understand her gifts and tried to escape into more intellectual understandings of the world, seeking answers by studying with a scholar’s fervor disciplines like neuroscience, consciousness, theology, the history of alchemy, western philosophy, literary theory, phenomenology, and the occult. After a series of synchronous encounters and devastating losses, Janice found herself back in attunement with her intuition, specifically through telepathic communications with plants and animals. (She still considers her first significant spiritual teacher to be her first dog, Benny.)

Janice is a mesa-carrying practitioner of the Q’ero tradition of medicine and energy work (she studied with Rosemary Beam of Rising Fire and completed the Healers Training Program).

She is currently an aspirant for the Order of Interbeing and long-time student of Thich Nhat Hanh in the Plum Village tradition of Engaged Buddhism. Her Dharma name is Compassionate Heart of the Source. She regularly leads guided meditations, dharma book clubs, and deep relaxations, and through Corporeal Writing, co-facilitates Radical Meditation: a practice of interbeing in times of crisis with Touk Keo.

She also regularly receives guidance and channeled messages from her ancestors, and is deepening her relationship to Korean indigenous practices. Her work incorporates elements of ancestral healing, Korean shamanic ritual (Muism) and Korean folk magic, plant medicine and flower essence work, stone & land/environmental essences, card readings and divination, and interspecies communication. Her intuitive gifts are supported by her ancestors and spirit guides.

As a healer, Janice sees her role as holding space for you to facilitate your own self-healing, and to be a guide and support animal as you navigate your own unique and individual journey.

Currently, Janice offers her intuitive gifts most regularly through group workshops (mainly through Corporeal Writing). She also occasionally offers group guided meditations, various one-day workshops, and limited one-on-one card readings and healing sessions. See the Events page for more info and follow her on Instagram (@diddioz) to stay updated on these occasional offerings. Janice isn’t working one-on-one with clients at this time.

Various flower, stone, tree, & environmental essences will soon be available through this website. For now, email her directly to inquire.

For a limited time, this special 無 Essence is available for online order.
