Education and early career
Brennan received a Bachelor of Science degree in
Ideas and theories
Her first book, Hands of Light: A Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field, is considered a "classic"
Brennan created a type of energy healing techniques that she called "full spectrum healing" to work on the seven layers of the human energy field or auras.[4] Brennan claimed that the technique she called spiritual surgery works on the fifth level of the human energy field using the power of a spirit surgeon.
Brennan's concept of "hara"
In her second book, Light Emerging, Brennan expanded her model of human subtle energies by adding the dimension of "intentionality" called "hara". Hara holds the human body in material manifestation until the life purpose is fulfilled. When the hara is healthy, the individual acts naturally and effortlessly to fulfill his or her life purpose. The hara is the foundation for the human energy field (HEF), or aura. Because of this relationship, healing hara is considered especially powerful for healing the auric field and, thereby, the physical body.
She also talked about the corestar. Our individual divinity, one with the universal divinity.[11]

The school has been located in Florida since 2000, and is licensed by the State of Florida Commission for Independent Education.
