About :
My name is Olivia Johnson. I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah.
I am a Licensed Massage Therapist and Local Artist in the San Diego Area. I moved to California in July 2021.
I graduated from Healing Mountain Massage school in Utah, in the spring of 2019. 900 practical hours. Trained in Swedish massage, Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massage, Shiatsu, Craniosacral, Chakra alignment and more.
I am also Reiki Level 2 certified.
Personal History/ Background:
Massage, bodywork, and artwork has always come easily to me. My mom is also an bodyworker and works with the same modalities as I do. Both my mom and My dad were artists. I’ve learned a lot from both of them. Aside from the fact I grew up in Utah not a part of the LDS church I frequently felt like an outsider growing up and different than kids my age. I had deeper feelings than most, saw colors and details of things that the majority of people never noticed. I felt deeply connected to nature, and often felt the emotions of other people, eventually even began to feel their physical ailments as well.
I’ve come to learn in my adult life this is categorized as something called being a hyper sensitive or intuitive person. I have dealt with some deep trauma in my childhood as well as adult life. One of those events being losing my dad at the age of 13. The pain of this loss has molded and shaped me in countless ways. This is part of the reason that I was guided to the healing field. I disagree with the term “healer”
because all that I am is a facilitator of assistance in one’s own healing process. No one person can totally heal another. We are all threads woven in the same tapestry. We all have wisdom gifts and guidance to offer each other, we are all walking each other home.
Mission:
One thing that has always been a hard pill to swallow me is the thought of death, even before my dad passing. Death haunts me and frees me at the same time. Its also given me an immense amount of wonder, depth, creativity, and appreciation for the present moment. The fact is nothing is permanent every form of energy dissolves through time. This breaking apart of and dissolving of form is what we will all have to face time and time again during our existence on this planet. We live in a realm of duality. The pain creates the joy. The loss creates the gain, our unconscious creates our conscious, shadows are created by light. and the emptiness creates the form. Sunyata. When we realize that all things are connected, there really is no separation, this only occurs in our minds,. we move into our hearts, into unity; and transcend time and space. We merge with the source we all came from. My mission as an artist and a bodyworker is to allow the unconscious to become conscious. To shed the light of awareness on the darker spaces within us. All is divine, even the shadows.
