The Californer/10348530

PETALUMA, Calif. - Californer -- As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in healthcare and coaching, many practitioners and their clients are left asking urgent questions: What happens to personal data? Which tools are safe?

A comprehensive new book, Digital Ethics for Energy Healing Practitioners, offers answers grounded in clinical ethics, legal standards, and real-world application.

Co-authored by Dawson Church, Kelly Yousem, and Anitha Vasudevan, the book provides a clear roadmap for navigating the rapidly evolving intersection of technology and healing.

"People are rightly concerned about how their information is being used," says Church. "AI systems process sensitive emotional and health data, and without proper safeguards, that data can be exposed or misused."

The book explains:

• How AI tools analyze and retain personal information
• What happens to client data when it is stored in the cloud
• Which safeguards practitioners and clients should look for in digital platforms
• How to communicate transparently with caregivers about technology use
• Practical steps to minimize risk while still benefiting from innovation

Rather than discouraging the use of AI, the authors emphasize informed, ethical engagement.

"Technology itself is not the problem," says Church. "The issue is whether practitioners understand how to use it responsibly. When used thoughtfully, these tools can expand access and improve outcomes."

The book is designed not only for professionals, but also for informed consumers who want to better understand how digital tools affect their healing experiences. Digital Ethics for Energy Healing Practitioners is available now on Amazon and from other booksellers.
