About this listen

 Hi, it's Manon Bolliger (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe. I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it. * De-Registered, revoked & retired after 30+ years of practice.

    From Wall Street to Self-Awareness - the Journey to Life Coach with Michael Kohan & Manon on The Healers Café
    Oct 8 2025
    In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Mikael a life coach, who shares his transformative journey from a corporate finance career to becoming a life coach. Initially studying clinical psychology, he worked in New York City post-9/11, dealing with trauma and addiction. His turning point came when he started practicing yoga, which led him to quit his job and pursue yoga full-time. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/michael-kohan Highlights from today's episode include: Michael explains the true role of a life coach is not to tell clients what to do, but to teach them self-awareness and the skills to make their own decisions, helping them understand and realign their beliefs and habits for authentic growth. Michael says finding the “space between the breath”—moments of self-reflection and stillness—is essential for breaking out of constant stimulation and overwhelm, allowing for genuine self-awareness and personal change. Manon says simple things, like connecting with nature or community, are often the most powerful for well-being, even though society tends to undervalue simplicity in favor of complexity. ABOUT MICHAEL KOHAN: Michael Kohan is an I.C.F Certified Life Coach who wakes up each morning with a simple purpose: to help others rediscover their powerful inner strengths and give clients and students the tools they need to make more meaningful decisions to Aim Higher and Elevate Their Lives. In 2015, he founded The Elevate Life Project, an online community for people to re-discover their true selves and gain the skills to move forward and find lasting success. Michael is dedicated to helping his clients and students find balance in all aspects of their lives—emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical well-being. He feels his purpose is to serve others through his teaching by encouraging students and clients to become steadfast in their practices while integrating spiritual and mindful living into their day-to-day lives to achieve their goals, live their dreams, and achieve the impossible. Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to be a devoted student of personal awareness, continually exploring the depths of my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors with curiosity and compassion. I believe that true growth begins with self-understanding, and I’m committed to walking that path every day. Through Dialectical Behavior Therapy; coaching, I share the insights I gain—not as someone who has all the answers, but as someone walking alongside others. I teach what I learn, offering practical tools for emotional regulation, mindfulness, and meaningful change, empowering others to build lives rooted in self-awareness, resilience, and authentic connection.

  • Inside Energy Healing: Chronic Pain Breakthroughs with Mike Sententia & Manon on The Healers Café

    Inside Energy Healing: Chronic Pain Breakthroughs with Mike Sententia & Manon on The Healers Café
    Oct 1 2025
    In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Mike who emphasized the importance of accurate pain assessment and the potential impact of psychological factors like placebo effect. Tony's injury from swimming surprisingly reduced his chronic pain, suggesting a link between acute and chronic pain management. Mike suggested alternative pain-inducing activities to potentially aid healing. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mike-sententia2 Highlights from today's episode include: Mike and the importance of honest feedback from clients—encouraging them to report truthfully even when a technique doesn’t work, as this helps practitioners refine and improve their healing methods. Mike explains the shift from using the term “suppress” to “neutralize” or “cancel out” energy signatures, to better describe his pain reduction technique and avoid negative connotations. Manon explains the need for thorough, transparent assessment and follow-up of pain intensity and frequency, so practitioners and clients have accurate benchmarks to measure healing progress. ABOUT MIKE SENTENTIA: I’m Mike. After studying and practicing energy healing 20+ years, I’ve developed a unique system of energy healing, specifically designed for chronic pain conditions. I’m truly so grateful for every client who’s placed their faith in me and who I’ve been able to help get back to doing what they love most over the past two decades. They’re the reason I do this work! In addition to being an energy healer for chronic pain, I’m also a science geek and love reading research. My books cover holistic care techniques that actually work, and the evidence behind them. Core purpose/passion: The mission of Healing Lab is to see Energy Healing integrated into mainstream medical practice and to see it covered by insurance in the same way that acupuncture is becoming. We know there is modern science behind energy healing even if we don’t fully understand all the mechanisms yet.

  • Healing Stories Energy Work with Xavier Roman Manon on The Healers Caf

    Healing Stories Energy Work with Xavier Roman Manon on The Healers Caf
    Sep 24 2025
    In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks Xavier Roman shared his journey of discovering his healing abilities at age five, when he healed a crying mother and child by channeling a white light. He recounted his near-death experience during appendicitis surgery, where he observed the operation and brought himself back to life. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/xavier-roman Highlights from today's episode include: Xavier discovered his healing abilities as a child and continued to develop them, often helping others without revealing his gift. Xavier explains a near-death experience profoundly shaped his understanding of healing, and he now demonstrates his energy healing process to help others, as shown during the podcast. Manon reflects on the healing process, emphasizing the importance of the healer-client relationship and the integration of energetic and traditional therapies for holistic health. ABOUT XAVIER ROMAN: My name is Xavier, and I can heal people facing any physical, emotional, or mental health concerns with in-person and distance healing. My healing abilities emerged at age five and heightened when my mom was in a near-death car accident. That experience allowed me to use my healing capabilities to support her healing journey. My gift of channeling energy to heal became stronger after I experienced an NDE & Near-Death Experience; during emergency surgery in July 2010. I flat lined, witnessed my surgery, and heard the surgeon and assistants as they scattered to bring me back to life. Since then, my body and mind healing techniques have continued to strengthen and emerge. I’ve met with and continue to help people on a national basis. People with chronic pain, undiagnosed and diagnosed health issues, mental health issues, and more. I’ve also supported individuals who were told they would pass away due to various medical conditions and restored them back to stable health conditions. Although I’ve never announced my healing abilities at great lengths to others, I’ve been guided to do so now. I truly feel called to connect with those needing healing more than ever. People may think you need to be a saint or a mystical figure to perform healing. However, I have been presented with this gift and have received thousands of testimonials from my clients on transformations that have occurred through and after healing sessions with me. I welcome the billions of people on this planet to have hope and welcome the power of energy healing into their lives.
