I am Mary Lavoie, proprietress of Crescent Moon Herbals. It is my pleasure to offer this unique shop to you with its
eclectic selection of gifts and services.
My professional career began as a Legal Secretary, until I married Jerry and we began our family. With two young children
tow, we moved from Salem, Massachusetts, to Lebanon, Maine, to provide our family with "a better way of life". As the
children grew (and more came along), I became actively involved with school, sports and dance classes. Eventually I began
writing for local papers as the Lebanon Correspondent, which I continued for several years before going to work full time at
a local newspaper.
Eventually, and with the encouragement of my husband, the shop officially opened its doors on Sept. 15, 2004. It has
continued to grow and expand steadily ever since. I have been fortunate to be a student in many of the classes offered at
the shop by the experienced teachers who assist me here. With their encouragement and help, I now offer private ear
candling sessions; Shamballa and Reiki Energy Healing; and Psychic Intuitive Card Readings. I am a Reiki Master and
Practitioner; and a Shamballa Multi-Dimensional Healer, receiving certification from Holly Brown, Certified Master
Teacher, and The Shamballa School of Esoteric Sciences. Certification of Ear Candling was received by Chris Bashaw,
RN and Senior Herbalist. In 2009, I was ordained as a minister of the Universal Light Church and was included as a
contributor in the new book "Out of the Broom Closet: 50 True Stories of Witches Who Found and Embraced the Craft".
Crescent Moon also actively participates in fund-raising events for local charitable organizations and schools. We are active
sponsors of Runs with Wolves Sanctuary in Limington, Maine. www.rwws.org

of South America for over 13 years. James is a Mesa Carrier in the Inka tradition which allows him to access Source and
