Joan Weir, N.D., FCAH has been a practicing Naturopath for over 20 years. She uses energetic mind/body modalities as well as traditional diets and supplements. She has been a student of nature-based traditions for many years with the privilege of having wonderful teachers to lead her towards her own growth and healing. She is a graduate of the Nine Gates Mystery School and has completed an eleven-day Vision Quest in the Inyo Mountains of California. Joan has been a student of the Animas Valley Institute in Colorado, learning Soulcraft practices. She is currently studying with the Four Winds Society, which is an international research and training organization preserving a thousand-year-old tradition of knowledge from Incan elders whose goal is personal and planetary healing. With Four Winds, Joan is becoming a practitioner of shamanic energy healing techniques. All of her experiences with these many teachers blend to give Joan a deeper approach to her healing work.

Joan has a long history as a competitive athlete as well as a teacher and trainer. She works with land and found objects to design settings that can be used for spiritual practices; e.g., labyrinths, meditative structures, pathways and gardens.

Joan is a perpetual student of the Earth and all its mysteries and imagination, especially those beyond our ordinary perceptions of reality.
