Carrie Galligan: Crystal Bowls Magic!

Meet Carrie Galligan a remarkable woman whose journey exemplifies resilience, courage, and a relentless zest for life. In December 2023, she faced an unexpected health crisis, discovering black spots in her vision that led to a challenging diagnosis: multiple sclerosis (MS). Rather than being defined by MS, she embraced her diagnosis as an opportunity to empower others, becoming an MS Ambassador dedicated to raising awareness and championing holistic wellness. Her healing journey is as vibrant and diverse as her spirit. Alongside traditional medical care from her neurologist, primary care physician, and ophthalmologist, she's assembled a team of holistic practitioners—including Reiki masters, an Eden Energy healer, and even a Rolfing specialist. She discovered a profound passion in Crystal Bowl Healing, now performing regularly at senior centers and local businesses, bringing peace, relaxation, and healing vibrations to the community. With humor and authenticity, she maintains a resilient mindset—acknowledging life's challenges but refusing to dwell. Her mantra? "Fate said to the warrior, 'Charge forward!'" Whether tending her garden, enjoying a glass of wine, or dancing to her favorite tunes, she demonstrates that true resilience means embracing life's joys and prioritizing self-care. Today, she's not just surviving—she's thriving, teaching others how to live courageously, laugh often, and prioritize self-care on their own journeys. Let's welcome an MS warrior, crystal bowl healer, and life enthusiast—someone who reminds us all that life is about thriving, not just surviving.
