We were lucky to catch up with Naomi Harel recently and have shared our conversation below.
Naomi, appreciate you joining us today. Is there a heartwarming story from your career that you look back on?
Hummingbirds first started appearing to me about 10 years ago when I was going through one of the most difficult times in my life. At first I just took it as a good sign, then after reading into hummingbird folklore and learning about these tiny and powerful creatures, I realized what a blessing they are. Not only are they powerful as teachers just by showing up, they also conspired with me to teach me a powerful lesson in manifesting and also get me to feed them. One day about 5 years ago when I was at the training center for an energy modality I study, I saw a hummingbird. I was so happy to see one after not seeing any for a few years, and in that moment I remembered how the daughter of a colleague had mentioned her daughter saw a hummingbird nest. I realized how happy I was to see just the one hummingbird, and also how wonderful it would be to also be able to see a nest of hummingbirds. I didn’t realize it, but my energetic prayer would be answered very soon. About two weeks after I returned home form the center, my cat was watching a tiny bird on the window sill. I was a bit concerned for this bird because it was just sitting and not flying away when my cat got closer. Of course the bird was totally safe on the other side of the window. A few minutes later a lightly larger bird, a hummingbird, flies over to the tiny bird on the window sill and feeds it. It turns out the tiny bird was a young hummingbird. It wasn’t exactly the hummingbird nest that I had thought of, but it was very close and easier for me to see from my window, a mother hummingbird caring for a young hummingbird and teaching it to fly. A few years later, while dealing with the unusual events during 2020, I was more stressed than usual one day. I was out driving on an errand and just spoke out loud to God, “God, how does this ever change?” The very next instant I was stopped at a stoplight and looked over at the vehicle next to me. I really couldn’t believe my eyes. I saw a white work van totally covered in large stickers of hummingbirds and dragonflies! And this work van was pulling a trailer that had a rental machine from a home improvement store. Dragonflies, to me, are as magical as hummingbirds. I took the message of seeing this vehicle right after asking God a question, that God is getting things done and making changes (work van and trailer with machine) in miraculous ways (hummingbirds and dragonflies). There is more to this story with how hummingbirds have shown up at the most incredible times to insprire me and remind me of all the magic and possibilities that exist in the world. I am so grateful to these incredible teachers. And of course, all of us are worthy and capable of receiving answers from God when we ask a question!

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
How I got started with energy work for people and animals was through learning about the law of attraction, and then troubleshooting it for where it wasn’t working as expected in every area of life. Through that process I learned about the subconscious mind and limiting subconscious beliefs. I looked into way of working on these limiting beliefs to clear and replace them. In working with coaching clients to change anything in their lives that isn’t working for them, I will usually also apply one of the two energy modalities that I’ve studied, ThetaHealing or Access Consciousness..
ThetaHealing is amazing for quickly replacing limiting subconscious beliefs with helpful ones to end self sabotage and create positive changes, and even physical improvements. Through this modality I learned about changing subconscious beliefs and working with animals. I’ve seen miracles happen in my own life as well as for clients. I kept studying and practicing this modality and have achieved the highest (current) certification, the Certificate of Science. Practicing and teaching ThetaHealing is something I credit for helping me in so many ways during the unusual events of 2020, and staying on track since for creating my best life.
When I first heard of Access Consciousness over 20 years ago, I didn’t really “get” the tools or how they could benefit me. In 2020 when I was reintroduced to Access Consciousness, things were different and I was looking for new ways to make sense of the world, and applying the Access tools made a huge, empowering difference for me. Its a powerful practice of staying open to possibilities by asking questions, rather than making assumptions. Access tools are the magic that helps you connect to who you truly are and all that you know is possible, which is basically everything you’ve ever dreamed of! I’ve since embraced that modality and sharing the tools with others through sessions and classes.
I’ve been an animal whisperer all of my life. It was through studying energy work and developing my intuition that I learned to communicate more clearly with animals. I mostly work with animal clients and their people through the ThetaHealing technique, though a communication session doesn’t always require healing. Unfortunately, even with all the people who truly love their pets, and as many people as there are out there who love animals, pets and their people still have many misunderstandings and pets can have behavior or health issues. Animals can benefit from energy work even more than people, though its never a substitute for veterinary care. Its such an amazing gift to be able to work with pets and their people so animals can have even better lives.
I love the versatility of working with clients and students remotely or in person, for those who would like to learn energy healing with ThetaHealing or Access Consciousness. Personally I’ve had lots of success with weight issues, especially releasing weight, for myself and clients. I’ve seen both of these techniques work miracles in people’s lives in any area of life. I really love being able to help people transform their lives and release problems and stuckiness from being an issue. And even if things are going well, I love to help people manifest and realize their dreams they haven’t achieved yet.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
This is a wonderful question. I would say I had to unlearn many things that we’re told about taking action. Basically we’re told that in order to get results with “A,” that we have to do “B” or do steps “DEFG,” and so on. But we aren’t really told or taught that energetic alignment is just as important. In other words, we have to be present with and take on the energy, or feeling of, that goal we’re working on turning out wonderfully.
For example, we all have to do our taxes, and some people are worried about making mistakes or getting audited. The problem there is if what you focus on, you will get, and the more intense your emotional state, the quicker the manifestations happen. My hummingbird story about seeing the hummingbird and very happily imagining seeing a nest of hummingbirds, is an example that turned out well. So for the taxes, do them when you’re in a calm and relaxed state, or hire someone to do them for you, whichever gives you a more peaceful state of mind. From there you can imagine having more peace when that task is done successfully.
So yes there’s things that we have to do in life that maybe we enjoy, or don’t enjoy so much, and out energetic state at the time we take action will effect the outcome. Sometimes when we energetically align to what it is we would like to accomplish, we may see we don’t have to do all of the steps we were told we have to do. Focusing on the energy of having accomplished a goal, what it feels like for everything to have worked out successfully, is as important as completing the tasks along the way.
Getting into energetic alignment with your goal can be tricky if you can’t quite imagine yourself having it, or don’t feel like you can do it or even deserve it. This is where looking into what those thought and feeling patterns are, and why they’re there, is very important. Usually these negative thoughts and feelings are coming from subconscious beliefs, and changing them can be very powerful. This is what I’ve had to do at many points in my life where I felt stuck or blocked, or just spinning my wheels and not getting anywhere. Before I understood energy work and the subconscious, following my intuition usually at least resolved things for a while. For lasting change though, removing the stuck energy or limiting belief is very important. I used to have limiting beliefs about where I could live or how nice of a place I could live in, and now I have a place I’m very happy with.
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
This is another great question! I would 100% choose the same work I am doing now, only I would have found it and learned about it much earlier! I chose this question because I know that for so many, there are things in life that you would have done differently. Some people aren’t happy in their present life scenario, and there are others who feel like they finally found their path after searching for a long time, and just wish they had found it sooner. Either situation can be frustrating for anyone who hasn’t had a chance to work through those feelings.
The benefit of working through stuck feelings or frustration is that usually you can see there was some gift, or some positive lesson that resulted from the problem. What I love about working through these situations for clients with energy healing is that we can retrain the subconscious mind, which pretty much runs our lives, so the person can move forward in life in an easier way.
