Please scroll down to read people’s very kind endorsements of James’ work.
JAMES WELLS is a Toronto-based motivational listener, consultant, teacher, and facilitator who is dedicated to merging soul and strategy. From childhood, he has been curious about what makes people and the Universe tick. Through tools and processes such as tarot, reiki, journal writing, and circle methodology, James and his clients and students are inspired to remember their creativity, resourcefulness, and wholeness. Whether at home or abroad, whether in personal sessions or in workshop settings, he provides an experience of council mind. In his “me time”, James enjoys reading, writing, music, walking, close friends, and good food.
CIRCLE PROCESS
Through circle process, we can harvest wisdom, build connection, discover solutions, and hold conversations that matter through sacred, non-judgemental witnessing. Just as our ancestors held council around campfires to engage in conscious dialogue, we sit in a circle so that all are equal. We put agreements in place so that it’s safe space for all. We create a physical centre in our midst to represent our best intent for the gathering, and we create an energetic centre by having a clear intent or question to address. We speak only when it’s our turn and we do so from personal experience. We listen deeply, through the heart. Through that profound listening, something is transformed. The circle and various methodologies that are rooted in circle can be used in many settings and contexts — spiritual gatherings, the helping professions, small businesses, corporations, community groups, families, writing circles, educational organisations, and so much more.
If your group or organisation is interested in circle facilitation, contact James. Fees depend on location, duration of time, and size of group.

You can even give one of your consultations to a friend — what a gift!

REIKI
Reiki is a Japanese method of hands-on energy healing and self-realization founded by Mikao Usui in the 1920s. James prefers more traditional Japanese methods of reiki because they reflect his belief that healing and spirituality should be simple and beautiful. He teaches and offers attunements in the tradition of Komyo Reiki, whose motto is, “Go placidly in the midst of praise or blame.” Each reiki treatment removes another layer of stress and toxins, revealing a more healthy and authentic YOU! Each level of reiki practice offers a new emphasis.
Fees for treatments:
30 minutes. Single session…$40; Series of four sessions…$140.
One hour. Single session…$70; Series of four sessions…$245.
90 minutes. Single session…$100; Series of four sessions…$350.
Basic content and fees for each level of learning reiki.
Level One (Shoden): Remember your natural capacity to heal self and others…$250
Level Two (Chuden): Heal mental-emotional patterns and learn to offer “distant” healing…$250
Level Three (Okuden): Practise reiki as a spiritual path to self-realization or satori…$250
Level Four (Shinpiden): This is the Teacher Level. Share the light, healing, and peace of reiki with others who desire to learn…$1500 plus time committment.
To learn reiki or to experience a personal treatment, simply make an appointment:

JOURNAL WRITING
If you think a journal is just a “dear diary”, think again! Journalling is a process of written personal narrative for self-discovery and self-expression. It’s a record of the inner life, a personal creative workplace, a confidant, and so much more.
Personal journal coaching sessions:
One hour. Single session…$75; Series of four sessions…$260
Journal writing worshops:
Fees for these vary, depending on location and size of group. Topics include “The Joy of Journal Writing”, “Journal Writing as a Spiritual Practice”, and “Image Into Word: The Journal as Dreamwork Temple.” These can take place as one-day workshops, weekend intensives, or five-day retreats, your choice.

I attend James’ monthly tarot gatherings because they accelerate my acceptance and trust of my own intuition. I am delighted with the variety of activities, the fun and meeting others on the journey.
I seek him out and refer my friends and clients to James Wells because I trust him to engage our questions and healing needs with the utmost integrity. Regardless of how many times I have consulted with him, I have always been surprised and inspired by what has emerged.
I find James Wells inspirational, fun, kind, generous, grounded and spiritual. Did I say fun? Let me add celebratory, joyful and a continual source of laughter.
What I love about having him in my life as a friend and teacher is the ease with which he shares knowledge, healing , ritual and help.
James is a gift. I thank the Goddess regularly for his presence on the planet.

James was one of the featured presenters at our 2008 Readers Studio conference for tarot professionals. His workshop was fascinating, thought-provoking and fun — and months later, attendees are still talking about it!
We have also received enthusiastic feedback from numerous people who have had a reading or series of reading sessions with James.

I have been to 2 Tarot sessions with James and attended the “Destiny Cards Workshop” and I can say this of James:
James creates a welcoming sacred space that can only encourage your soul to come forth. He encourages you to “show up for yourself.”
Through thoughtful skill and heart-full experience, James helps you to celebrate the shining signs that light our path…signs we so often fail to appreciate for the gifts they truly are.

Exploring tarot with James is a delight. He has been an inspiration to me with his wonderful mix of reverence and irreverance, practical knowledge and intuitive wisdom. James is truly a tarot gem.

James reads Tarot like no other! During my reading, he guided me to build a physical path for my life experience. I immediately went and dug up a 180′ garden bed with The Fool at one end and The Hermit at another. It’s an evolutionary masterpiece! It has also led to other areas of my life being able to grow. James does a beautiful job guiding people to reclaim the joy in their lives. He doesn’t give you the answers, but guides you to find them and challenge yourself.

One of the gifts of my profession is James. He has a big heart, imaginative curiosity and self knowledge that has shaken me to my very core.

I’m going to put here what I put into my own blog about James…
Twas a blissful experience of harvesting questions and communicating with someone who is whipsmart and witty as hell and who (unconsciously?) emits truth after truth after truth in these little lightning strikes. Zzzt!
The process itself is a terrific interplay of his questions eliciting my questions, his witnessing my questions, my witnessing his observations.
Not all sheets of gauze waving gently in the wind, however. Out of the chaos of wafty gauze, Mr. Wells creates order.
The three sessions had an arc to them, which meshed nicely with my topic, a meaty business-slash-personal growth hunk of knottiness that needed some serious tenderizing.
The first session, for me, was at the visioning/issue exploration level (grounded in birth cards),
The second pertained to the whos and whats … and pros and cons, strengths and weaknesses of each Who and each What,
And the third session went temporal, with a month by month awareness-raising of wants vs. needs.
Bottom line: James has vision and wisdom and humor.
Engaging in a tarot consult with James is not to be missed.
…even now there are things he said in the reading that pop into my head from time to time … they were so spot on and funny and real … sigh. All good. Thank you James.

As for his reiki courses, how James manages to establish such fertile ground for self exploration and shared revelation in just one weekend is nothing short of beautiful. It’s like Woodstock without the drugs — a spiritual high that opens up a cloudy night and lets the moon do her stuff. And all that glowy lunar goodness spills right over onto his tarot consultations. I am blessed to call him a good friend on my journey.

I have known James for over 10 years and he is now the only person I recommend to people. After experiences with more mainstream popular book writing psychics, James has passed the litmus test of time and proven to be professional, wise, grounded, and skilled at guiding people towards their own best judgment. James is probably one of the rare guides who does not fall into the “New Age blame game” so prominent in metaphysical circles. As I consider myself to be anti-New Age, James Wells guidance is clear, conscious, and considerate. No magical thinking rather conscious suggestions that leave the client the final judge and jury of their own life.
