   Cookie healed her anxiety and created a wonderful life with a new husband and home by using the metaphysical skills she learned through reading, energy work, alternative medicines, Hindu gurus, Eastern healing techniques, shamans and spiritual retreats. She hiked the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with a Shaman, and has attended many retreats  through Omega institute and with American Indian Shamans and will attend one in Ireland this year with renowned medium and healer Marie Manuchehri.
