Awake and Free
Love Being is Portland, Oregon’s top-rated Colonic and Energy Work studio, owned and operated by Alec Steury, a master Colon Hydrotherapist, Reiki, and Energy Work practitioner with over 20 years of experience.
That’s Me :)
I love what I do. I am here to help you thrive.
Love Being utilizes a closed-system, gravity-centered method of colon hydrotherapy. This is the gentlest and most effective form of colonics there is, hands down. That's a bold statement, but it's true.
Check out what our clients have to say about it in our testimonials section.
By aligning our practice with the principles of nature and the body, we achieve remarkable results with minimal force.
Flow is the inevitable outcome.
Recently, Monica Joseph, joined the team. Monica spent the last year (2023) apprenticing with me and is now available to book for colonics. Schedule with her here.

Alec's Offerings
Colonic
90 mins - $140
Pckg. of 3 - $400
*Sliding scale available to those in need, inquire HERE
A colonic with Alec. Via gravity only, filtered water is drawn into and out of the body, and skillful touch is applied along the back and abdomen. Quickly then (and with minimal force), what is stuck becomes unstuck. You are in control the entire time, yet paradoxically, you don’t have to “do” anything. Your body knows the way, and is allowed the space to do what it needs to do, but is never forced. This is the magic of a closed system, gravity colonic. It is a powerful experience of cleansing and renewal affecting all aspects of body, heart, and mind. If you are new to colonics, and/or looking for a deeper shift, you are encouraged to do a series of two to three colonics close together. Spacing them two days to a week apart works best for most people. Two colonics are great, but three is best, particularly for those who are very stuck or sick. Colonics can be purchased in packages of three to receive a discount of $20 off the base price. Colonics are for you if you are: *Wanting to feel more vital, clear, and alive. *Chronically or acutely constipated. *Consistently and uncomfortably bloated. *Experiencing a sense of fullness or heaviness in the body and/or abdomen. *Feeling “stuck” in your body or life. *Needing to detox from anything—substances, people, places, situations, etc. *Feeling “toxic.” *Constantly anxious. *Wanting to experience more clarity of mind. *Seeking a deeper, clearer, more vital sense of embodiment.
Shamanic
Colonic
3 hrs - $300
*Sliding scale available to those in need, inquire HERE
A Shamanic Colonic is an Energy Work Session followed by a Colonic— A three hour reality-shifting deep dive into a whole new you. Working with whatever intention you bring to the session, and the innate wisdom of your body's intelligence, we recalibrate, reconnect, delete, transform, and transmute at the most subtle levels of reality. Drawing from a repertoire of healing tools and modalities, destructive, stagnant patterns are cleared at the root, and new, holistic patterns are seeded. The body's nervous and subtle energetic systems are reset, and you’re left feeling deeply rested and ready for release. Greater harmony, flow, abundance, and ease is the natural outcome. Why pair energy work with colonics? Because: *You want a more expansive healing experience in combination with your colonic. *You need to detox from anything—substances, people, places, situations, etc. *You need redirection, help, more clarity. *You need clearing and integration. *You desire to go deeper than ever before. *To understand more about the energetic aspect of this work, please read about my Energy Work offering.

Energy Work

*Sliding scale available to those in need, inquire HERE
Shamanic Energy Work is an ever-evolving practice drawing originally from the study of Reiki—a traditional Japanese hands-on-healing technique I’ve been practicing for 20+ years. This year my work received a vast upgrade. My body has become a kind of finely tuned compass, which I can ask questions of, and then receive answers to, in the form of yes, no, and neutral (think whole body kinesiology). Because of this, my work has become significantly more precise. You can think of me as a tuning fork resonating at a very high frequency, as well as a radio antenna sending and receiving information and instructions. Tremendous currents of energy move through my body—in fact, you will probably feel me spontaneously shake throughout the session. This is the movement of the universal life force through my field. In these sessions, we can address anything that you bring to the table—mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual—or we can follow the energetic breadcrumb trail and see what magic arises naturally. Sessions can be done in-person, or remotely (with or without your presence). At the end of your session, for both in-person and distance work, you will receive a copy of your session “notes,” as well as a short, voice-recorded explanation. Questions and dialogue are welcome and encouraged. This is for you if: *You feel out of sorts, disconnected from yourself and from the world around you. *You are curious about energy work/reiki and want to see how it might help you. *You are looking for a nervous system reset. *You have a particular problem that feels impossibly stuck. *You need help releasing stagnant energy, but don't feel drawn to a colonic. *You are seeking energetic support with ancestral and lineage-based healing. *You are looking for different ways to address trauma. *You would like to experience something beautiful, deeply restorative, and harmonizing.
