YUMIKO ASAKURA
Yumiko is a natural-born healer, shaman, philosopher and alchemist. She was born with awareness and memories of her past lives and can use her spiritual accumulated knowledge and abilities from all of her lives.
Her gifts have come through her family lineage, the Asakuri Samurai Clan, which is descended form Emperor Tenmu.
Her unique connection to these lifetimes and ‘beyond’ allows her to guide and heal with universal wisdom that transcends time. Her healing abilities are unique and very noticeable. She has been guiding spirits her entire life, and started healing and guiding people from an early age.
At the age of 30, Yumiko began her mission to serve as a spiritual teacher and started teaching shamans, healers, monks, doctors, therapists and other spiritual teachers. Yumiko also mentored and advised medical doctors, teachers of acupuncture and other complementary medicines, Reiki masters, Buddhist monks and scientists in Japan.
Later, she founded Leaves of Wisdom in 2000, which became Leaves Institute in 2007.
Using Lemurian wisdom, universal mysticism and alchemy she has developed more than 300 different healing techniques, all of which are unique and original. She has also developed an innovative ‘distant healing’ method to reach many who need healing and support. Yumiko has taught various subjects such as shamanism, lightwork, healing and alchemy to many people, and trained many leading mentors in Japan.
Since the launch of Leaves Institute online, this knowledge has been offered outside of Japan for the first time. Leaves Institute now offers short courses and a Healing Diploma Course in English which is internationally accredited by the CMA (Complementary Medicine Association).
Yumiko’s rare combination of ancient Eastern wisdom, Western science, and universal knowledge makes her approach to teaching culturally inclusive and highly effective.
