Travis Taylor believes things happen according to a certain rhythm, and purpose. “I don’t have to know why,” he said about certain events that have happened, or how he found his ability to heal, “The answers might not come right away. I just knew I needed to be here and do this work.”
It’s synchronicity. “If someone needs me, they will run into me, hear about me from a friend, or happen to catch my radio show,” Taylor said, “When you align to who you really are – make conscious choices aligned to the divine path – you are able to create all the abundance and wellness you deserve, quickly and easily.”
Taylor lives in Fremont, and while his career, as an attorney, takes him into Downtown Seattle during the week, he also leases an office in the Fremont SPACE building, behind the Lenin statue, for his other consulting business, called ‘Empathic Healing’.
‘Create The Life You Want’
At Empathic Healing, Taylor explores the field of energy medicine and the multi-sensory experience. In collaboration with clients, Taylor helps their personal spiritual, mental, and emotional growth. This kind of work, intuitive and hands on healing, can take him to places he would never go in his practice of law. “I didn’t know any of this going in,” Taylor explained about discovering his intuitive talents, “I just knew it was fun.”
In 2007, Taylor took a Reiki class and found himself, literally, touching talents he’d never known he possessed. Taylor had always known he was intuitive, and that he “would pick up on other people’s feelings,” but Reiki gave him an awareness of tools and talents that he hadn’t known existed.
“I help people access their own intuition and unique abilities and talents,” Taylor explained about what he does, “I remind them of who they are. I’m really here to show you who you truly are.” What he does could be seen as life coaching, and helping people to develop self-care. He can help eliminate barriers – those self-imposed through fear, through beliefs that no longer fit, or just unknown causes – and identify the central issues otherwise hidden, to empower our lives.
Before studying Reiki, Taylor had a strong interest in metaphysics (he reads quantum mechanics and physics for fun,) and he brings a very logical, inquisitive and scientific approach to his study of energy medicine. With his background in law, Taylor can explain what he does (and the ethereal realm) in very concrete, logical terms. “I can explain it in a way that can be understood,” he acknowledged, “I can drill down a little bit further,” if people want the deeper answers, and to hear more.
Taylor’s ability to explain what, for many, is inexplicable, may explain why his radio show, on Saturdays at 1p on KKNW 1150AM, called ‘Create The Life You Want’, has been so well received. On it, he gives guidance and insight, along with practical information, as a spiritual healer as well as on issues of social justice.
What he hasn’t had, yet, on the show, over nearly a year taking callers, is to defend himself. “Not one person,” Taylor reported, has called to say they don’t believe, or to challenge him, on spiritual healing or multi-sensory abilities, “I’ve been the one who has questioned.” He jokingly acknowledged, “I’ve never been called crazy, though I’d be interested, if someone called who disagreed, if they would want to hear the answer.”
‘To Be Ourselves Without Judgment’
“Just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it is not there,” Taylor said of his ability to touch someone to find the source of their pain, or blocked energy caused by psychic trauma or past lives.
His law practice, and the radio show, do take him out of Fremont, but Taylor is happy to have his home and consulting office located here. “We allow ourselves to be ourselves without judgment,” he observed about the people he meets, in his office and walking back and forth between work and home, “I think the creativity is what makes the neighborhood different. You see the creativity walking around.”
Taylor also stays in Fremont due to the synchronicity that brought, and kept him, here. When he decided to lease an office outside of his home – to give him more room to work, and more ability to focus while at work – he searched the internet for space, and found the SPACE building. He called to find out about the waiting list, and the leasing agent told him that an office, exactly the size he wanted, had just become available that day.
“The fact that I do intuitive work doesn’t surprise people like it would elsewhere in the City, or the world,” Taylor observed. He also finds most people are willing to consider energy medicine, and the study of where the non-physical becomes the physical, as a part of learning to heal.
