Bridgid M. Ruden, ARNP
Reiki Practitioner, Inspirational Speaker & Author Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor 319-430-4966 bmruden@southslope.net
Despite suffering from severe traumatic brain injury in 2008, Bridgid amazingly rekindled herself to become a wounded healer. Bridgid returned to life as if she was four years old, relearning basic life skills. In losing the ability to practice as a Nurse Practitioner, a powerful Divine energy soared through her spirit. Miraculously, in 2009 Bridgid began presenting her amazing story nationally and internationally, appeared on TV, radio, podcasts, webinars, and published numerous articles and a book chapter sharing powerful simplistic ways to heal from trauma. By 2016, her first book, Discovering My Life’s Purpose: From Tragedy to Triumph, was published, which received outstanding reviews. Bridgid’s 2nd book, Believe in the Power of Believing, is a sequel to the first book and published in 2023. In addition, Bridgid provides spiritually guided holistic medicine as a Reiki Practitioner, Teacher, and Medical Intuitive. She is described as inspirational as her heart and soul provide outstanding education, hope, healing, and compassion to those in need.
