Meet Mark Lemohr
My path into healing began in childhood and has unfolded over more than fifty years. What started as a personal spiritual practice gradually evolved into a professional practice that now spans more than eighteen years.
I work with people who are seeking clarity, balance, and support through periods of physical, emotional, or spiritual challenge.
When I was little, the other kids wanted toy trucks. I asked for a doctor’s kit. I had a plastic stethoscope and a fake rubber mallet, and family and friends would sit patiently through my examinations and tell me they felt better afterward. I believed every single one of them. The feeling it gave me has never left me. My nickname growing up was Marcus Welby, which should paint a picture of how the people around me saw the younger version of me. I have always been driven to try help others heal from their wounds.
My Story
When I was eleven-years-old, I was plagued by regular bouts of debilitating tension headaches.
I can clearly remember riding in the back seat of the family car and suffering an attack. I was given a vision within my mind's eye that showed me to imagine that my brain was made of calm water. I immediately began to practice the visualization.
The headaches subsided substantially, which encouraged me to use this process each and every time I had a bout of head pain. The more I practiced, the better and faster the visualization worked. Eventually I was able to cure my tension headaches completely, and to this day, I have no need for any headache medication.
I started applying this visualization to any wounds to my body. Whenever I sustained an injury, I would set about imagining the affected cells becoming calm water. The results made it apparent to me that I could reduce pain and shorten the time required to heal from injuries.
I wished for a way that I could apply my technique to others to help them heal, but I was without the knowledge of how to accomplish this.
In 2007 I came to realize that not only were there ways to transfer healing energies to others, but that some of these techniques had existed for thousands of years. With this wealth of knowledge and practice to draw upon, my life was forever changed as I stepped onto the path of helping others with their healing journeys. I became obsessed with the practice known as energy healing.
In my 18+ years of professional practice, I have had the incredible pleasure to have taken part in the incredible healing journeys of so many people around the world.

My Shamanic Journey
In 2008 I was welcomed onto traditional First Nations land to teach a workshop on energy healing. I was taken into the teepee of their traditional medicine man. He turned to the woman who introduced us and thanked her for bringing a shaman into his home. I had no idea what that meant and told him he was mistaken. I told him that I was an energy healer. He laughed out loud and told me that I had no idea what was coming to me because I had forgotten who I was.
That night the spirit world came crashing into me. Shamanism introduced itself and proceeded to strip my beliefs to the ground. It was terrifying. We fear what we don’t understand.
Up until that point I had not taken spirit into consideration when attempting to heal myself and others. On that night, Spirit made it perfectly clear to me that this had changed forever.
It would be difficult to convey the many trials and tribulations I have encountered along this path, as I continually learn and grow. I can say that my relationship with the forces that give power to shamanic healing work has matured over my 18+ years of professional practice.
The fact that two First Nations chiefs trust me with their health challenges, provides me with humbling proof of my progress.

Shamanic Storytelling
Shamanic storytelling is a form of healing work that has been passed down through countless generations. It offers wisdom and guidance wrapped inside thrilling tales of spiritual adventures. It is my goal to bring this beloved tradition into the modern world.
Read the Shaman Chronicles…they are designed to keep you and your spirit on the edge of your seat, while providing you with wisdom and guidance.
The medicine is in the stories. (Ancient Shamanic Belief) >>

My Lineage
My great, great grandmother was a healer and midwife in Rimouski Quebec, Canada. My grandfather used to spend his summers with her, helping her gather the plants from which she would make her medicines.
The story goes that two conventional doctors tried to set up an office in the town, but they had to wait for her to pass before anyone would come to see them. To say she was dedicated to the healing arts would be an understatement.
My grandfather was a dowser. When other farmers wanted to know the best place to dig a well, they would have my grandfather walk their land. He could detect the subtle differences in the vibrations of the earth to know when he was standing over top of a source of water below the ground. He was always one hundred percent accurate.

When my father became seriously ill with colitis in the 1980s, our family entered a period of grave uncertainty. At the time, there were limited medical answers, so my mother assumed responsibility for his day-to-day care.
She began studying holistic approaches that focused on observing the body’s responses rather than forcing outcomes. One of the methods she learned was Applied Kinesiology, or muscle testing, which she used as a practical tool to guide everyday decisions around food and lifestyle.
Over time, my father regained strength and stability and went on to live a long and fulfilling life. For me, this was not about a technique or a result, but about witnessing dedication, attentiveness, and respect for the body’s natural intelligence. These values that would quietly shape my own path many years later.

My Healing Journey
This is a photo of me at 16 years old.
It always stops me in my tracks.
My home life became turbulent in my youth. I set out on my own at fifteen and lived on the streets until I was twenty-one. Those years included addiction, crime, and a deep round of clinical depression. Many of the people I ran with did not make it out.
When I was twenty-one I found a thread of light within me and I followed it. I developed a set of mental tools that I used to counter my self-destructive thoughts and actions. My very survival was at stake.
I learned that what I was missing was self-acceptance. I had come to loathe my own company. There would be no more avoidance, because no matter how I tried to distract myself from the disdain, everywhere I went, there I was.
I realized that for lasting change to occur, I had to learn to like who I was as a human being. Then I had to learn to have enough compassion and love for who I was to do the work that is required to save yourself from yourself. With a growing sense of self-respect I moved forward, one constructive thought built on top of another. Soon a good day would carry into another and then another, until I learned that the past explained who I was, but it was my choices in each moment that define who I choose to be. I began the construction of a new me.
Three years later I was clean and sober and in college. Eventually I settled down, created a healthy and productive life, and raised three wonderful children. I came back to the healing ability I had learned in childhood and it has carried me through to this day.
I share my story because many who come to me have been somewhere dark too. When I sit with someone in their version of those years, I am not working from a textbook. I understand the lifelong challenge of creating and maintaining quality mental health from both personal and professional experience. I used to call my dark night of the soul my wasted years, but now I know they were my learning years. I use the lessons from my journey from the dark to light to help others find the light within themselves that has dimmed or gone out. When we learn to understand our broken parts and love them unconditionally, we can feel safe within our own skin and in that moment, the healing that lasts a lifetime can begin to take place.
I would love to tell you that I am enlightened and that you should be like me, but that would be a lie. Life can be very difficult to figure out for me just as much as anyone else. Most of what I have learned has come from me trying to heal my own journey. I have come to realize over time, that when we share what we have learned with others, we all have the chance to heal. Wishing you light, happiness and good health on your journey through life.
