Christy Whitney-Matz

is the founder of pAra

pAra a reiki-infused holistic skincare line. She is a Shamanic Reiki healer with roots in intuitive plant spirit medicine. She finds serenity amidst forests, gardens, mountains, lakes, streams, salty seas, and in the company of four-legged fur-children and her dear human companions. Her most recent quest is into the healing of her ancestral lineages which has crossed her into unseen dimensions, where she has met ancient familial guides who now work with her in the development of her gifts — including the crafting of pAra’s potions via the connection of plant spirit to the earthly body. In each day she is gifted earthside, she endeavors to lead from the heart, walking softly and spreading light at every turn.
