FRANCESCA McCARTNEY, Ph.D.
Francesca is a gifted intuitive counselor, medical intuitive and teacher. For over thirty years, she has been practicing, teaching, and continually enhancing her intuitive abilities. Thousands of people have benefited from her private counseling, and from that private counseling practice Francesca developed the Intuition Medicine® curriculum currently taught at the Academy of Intuitive Studies and Intuition Medicine® in Sausalito, California, USA.
In 1966, Francesca received Laboratory Technician (hematology) certification from St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, Michigan. From 1968 to 1973, she studied Eastern mysticism, Divine Science of the Soul with Kirpal Singh. She also studied the Western mystical traditions of Theosophy and the Rosicrucian Society. She has been a licensed nondenominational minister since 1976.
Francesca received her Montessori teaching credential at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1974. She directed three Montessori preschool programs in Northern California. In 2001, she received her B.S. in Education from Greenwich University, where she is currently in the Ph.D. program in Energy Medicine.
In 1976, Francesca joined an alternative medicine clinic, the Academy of Eastern Medicine, in Walnut Creek, California where she was the meditation instructor and medical intuitive for seven years. Through her work there she became one of the first professional intuitives to practice an interdisciplinary modality combining Eastern and Western healing arts in a holistic system. In 1980, she was co-speaker with Dr. Alan Charles, MD on a talk entitled "The Effects of Energy and Color in Health and Behavior" at the International Academy of Preventive Medicine's annual conference in Denver, Colorado, USA. During the conference, she led daily meditation workshops for the members. Her studies continued with training in Homeopathy, Radionics, Nutritional Therapy, Ayurvedic Medicine, Reiki, Qi Gong and Huna Healing as well as the practices of Tai Chi and Yoga.
In 1984, the San Francisco Examiner newspaper interviewed Francesca for a story on predictions, and Gnosis magazine published a story about her intuitive healing work. In 1990 she was a founding member of the USA branch of the Kundalini Research Network and wrote a chapter on "Paranormal Experiences" for their international questionnaire. During this time, she was also a staff writer for Psychic Life magazine.
In 1990, Francesca published her own audiotape set—the Intuitive Development Series. Then, in January of 2001, Francesca published her debut book, Intuition Medicine®: The Science of Energy, and recorded and published eight audiotapes that cover various aspects of Intuition Medicine®: Grounding System, Aura/Life-Force and Earth Energy System, Energy Anatomy of the Chakra System, Kundalini Energy Anatomy System, Color Meditations, Prosperity and Synchronicity, Creating Healthy Relationships, and Male/Female Energy Anatomy System. Currently, she is working on another book on her model of Intuition Medicine®, energy and healing, as well as a book of intuitive development stories for children and their parents.
In 1999, Francesca's class in Intuition Healing was taught on-site to the staff of fifteen complementary care physicians at California Pacific Medical Center's (CPMC) Health & Healing Clinic in San Francisco, California. She is currently participating as a "healer" in a research project conducted by Dr. Elisabeth Targ, research director at CPMC. Dr. Targ received a National Institute of Health grant to study the "Efficacy of Distant Healing by Nurses and Healers." Francesca and Pamela Bradley, Ph.D., a research psychologist at the University of California at Berkeley, are creating a research project utilizing the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). They plan to use the MBTI assessment information in researching what they have observed as the varied types of "intuitive personalities."
In February, 2002 Francesca accepted an appointment as an adjunct faculty member at the International University of Professional Studies (www.iups.edu). Ms. McCartney instructs courses in Alternative Healthcare and Energy Medicine.
Francesca lives in
Northern California with her husband of 25 years and their two daughters.
| SELECTED COURSE | |
Intuition Medicine® is
a system of expanded perception of the world through the development of
the human sense of INTUITION. This system, developed by Francesca
McCartney, includes an integrated study of seven energy anatomy systems
and their connection to the physical anatomical systems. This model of
Intuition Medicine® and its hypotheses have been synthesized from
Francesca McCartney's intuitive counseling of thousands of people and her
study of science, spirituality, education and holistic medicine. This
material and theory are not intended to be used in place of a doctor's
advice. Rather, Intuition Medicine® is intended to be used to increase the
effectiveness of conventional diagnosis and treatment of body, mind and
spirit.
This teaching is the next step for serious students of energy medicine and the first most efficient step for beginners in their study of intuition, energy medicine and self-healing. [more] |
