Rev. Tiffany Jean Barsotti, M.Th., Ph.D., was a leading light in healing science and practice. As a spiritual and medical intuitive counselor, founding teacher in Personal Self Integration, and frontier biofield researcher, Tiffany freely shared countless gifts of wisdom, presence, energy and unconditional love within her community as well as within the broader circle of humanity.
Tiffany was a founding member of the Consciousness and Healing Initiative (CHI) as well as a member of CHI’s Healing Practitioner Council. She actively participated in CHI’s education activities to share practical wisdom on personal healing as well as cutting edge research with scientists, practitioners and patients. Some of her wisdom from CHI interviews and webinars are freely accessible in the videos below, which we encourage you to watch.
In addition, Tiffany was a favorite guest on GAIA TV as well as faculty at the Shift Network, and presented her work at numerous international scientific conferences. Tiffany’s wisdom touched tens of thousands of people across the world and personally touched thousands of students who experienced direct transformation and healing from her teachings. You can learn more about Tiffany’s work on her website, Heal and Thrive.
Tiffany’s contributions to the field were vast and we suspect some of her contributions to biofield science are just beginning to seed the field toward a better understanding of the integration among the spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of whole person health. Her groundbreaking Master’s thesis (under the mentorship of Dr. Norm Shealy and Carolyn Myss at Holos University), proposed a bioenergetic pathway of the reticular activating system, vagus nerve, and Alta Major chakra as a nexus for integrating spiritual, energetic and physiological states of being and health. She published this work as a book, The Biology of Transformation: The Physiology of Presence and Spiritual Transcendence, now freely available across booksellers worldwide. In addition, her seminal contributions to the science of sacred space, which formed the basis for her Ph.D. dissertation at Akamai University, investigated changes in biophotonic emissions of people in response to encountering a sacred object. This research was published in a peer reviewed scientific journal and can be freely accessed here.
Beyond her accomplishments, Tiffany’s Being was Healing. She brought joy and light to all whom she encountered – whether students, colleagues, or friends and family, all of whom she selflessly served.
Tiffany’s life ended on February 25, 2024 at the age of 56 – just four months after a shocking diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma, an incredibly rare and aggressive form of cancer. Despite the diagnosis, Tiffany remained in her Grace throughout the pain and suffering she incurred during this cancer, and remained an embodied teacher of love, light and wisdom until her last peaceful breath.
While Tiffany’s body is no longer with us, her spirit is eternal and her contributions to humanity will continue. Those of us who knew her in this life will continue to honor and serve her legacy and healing contributions to the field, as she did for so many others.
Rest in Grace, our dear sister in Healing.
With love,
The CHI Core team, Board and Councils.
