ACEP Humanitarian Committee Members

Jill Frew

PhD, CEH, CDLH

Jill was a therapist for 25 years, and then a certified light healer for 30 more. She developed Clear Diamond Light Healing (CDLH), and has done workshops and healings all across the US, teaching how to heal within and move through the seven-stage transformation process she has experienced and observed in her clients. Since inner fears are created into the outer world, such healing also removes the outer reflections of those fears. If everyone went through this transformation process, we could create a world without fear. This is Dr. Frew’s dream. And she’s written eleven books; a trilogy that is a fictionalized version of the full transformation process, the structure of the 365 inner planes, the uses of color in healing, light healing for children, the light impulses of child and human development, beloved communities of the future, and the energies of sexual union. She has a healing and workshop center in Minnesota.
