The IMHS
Metaphysics Doctoral Degree program is comprised of a total 12
required courses covering a wide variety of metaphysical concepts and
life-skills. The five Bachelor’s Degree courses have been
predetermined for you. Most of the seven required courses in the
Master’s Degree Program have been pre-determined based on the area of
specialization you choose, but some specializations allow you to choose
electives. This section describes all of our courses. Please check the
individual degree specialization pages above for specific course
requirements.
Each course is comprised of several
segments and is designed to be completed in 15 - 30 hours, depending
on the course and student. Some segments include audio and/or video
supplements to the written material. Course work varies
depending on the course material but courses include study
material and other learning resources such as videos and audios.
Most courses include a
final exam or written assignment or both. All study material is included
in the tuition--there are no additional books to buy. A certificate of
completion is issued once each course is completed. A Bachelor's
Diploma is issued after the first five courses and the Bachelor's
course assignment are completed; a
Master's Diploma is issued after seven additional courses are completed, and a Doctoral
Diploma is issued once the Doctoral Degree Assignment is completed.
The
courses are designed to be taken
one per month, but students are free
to complete up to three courses per month if their schedule
permits full time study. The key is to digest the information
rather than speed through it.

Advanced Intuitive Counseling
is for spiritual counselors who want to learn how to better use
their gifted insights, expand their intuition, and excel in
their “calling” to help others. This course will give you
“uniquely” new insights for using your intuition in grounded,
sensible, and practical ways when working with clients. It will
guide you through a series of questioning and assessment
processes to help clients become more self-aware—without
infringing on free will—and while helping a client to reframe
her/his thinking, perspectives, and emotions when dealing with
life’s challenges. This course is based on Dr. Vicki Hunter’s
40+ years of experience doing psychic readings that naturally
evolved into spiritual counseling.
Prerequisite: Course MHs.M8:Transpersonal
Counseling and Coaching.

Kvantum Energy Healing Level 1 – Fundamental Energy Concepts
Kvantum Energy Healing (KEH;
pronounced “Quantum”) is a specialized spiritual healing
modality aimed at restoring the body’s optimum energy flow by
discovering and releasing mental and emotional blocks that often
inhibit the body from wellness. The KEH method was created by
metaphysical practitioner, Dr. Vicki Hunter, and has been under
meticulous development since 2001. It is based on more than four
decades of Dr. Hunter’s metaphysical practice and study. KEH
Level 1 —Fundamental Energy Concepts provides a solid
knowledgebase and unique insights on various aspects of clearing
residual energy, body polarities, basic universal symbols, the
power of sound, the power of color, gems, stones, and conduits,
and spiritual/cellular memory. In addition, student
practitioners are taught a one-of-a-kind and proprietary chakra
restoration meditation they can use with clients. Level 1
establishes a crucial foundation for the techniques taught in
Levels 2 and 3 where students will receive additional practical
training. Students who complete this course will receive their Certified Kvantum
Facilitator 1 (CKF1) designation upon completion.
Prerequisite: None.
Instructor: Dr. Vicki Hunter.

Kvantum Energy Healing Level 2 – Body-Thought-Memory Integration
Kvantum Energy Healing (KEH)
Level 2 provides the fundamental formula for the proprietary and
unique Body-Thought-Memory Integration (BTMI) modality developed
by Dr. Vicki Hunter as a means of locating and changing
“thoughts in the body.” Emotional, traumatic, epigenetic, and/or
past life memory can display unsuspecting and “hidden body
memories” which, in turn, can impair overall wellness. KEH Level
2 explores how to find where “body-thoughts” are active and
potentially inhibiting the body’s ability to heal. In an effort
to inspire a natural flow of balanced energy, KEH Level 2 also
teaches a one-of-a-kind method to “reassign thoughts” so that
the consciousness of the body can promote self-healing. This
BTMI method inspires the spiritual connection with the body.
Students are provided worksheets and practical training. KEH
Level 2 is another step in preparing students for Level
3--unlocking the full power of the BTMI approach. Students who
complete this course will receive their Certified Kvantum
Facilitator 2 (CKF2) designation upon completion.
Prerequisite: Course MHs.M35: Kvantum
Energy Healing Level 1.
Instructor: Dr. Vicki Hunter.

Kvantum Energy Healing Level 3 – Advanced Body-Thought-Memory Integration
Kvantum Energy Healing (KEH)
Level 3 - Advanced Body-Thought-Memory Integration provides the
final step toward advancing the fundamental formula for the
proprietary and unique Body-Thought-Memory Integration (BTMI)
modality developed by Dr. Vicki Hunter as a means of locating
and changing “thoughts in the body.” KEH Level 3 expands on
Level 2 and explores how to “dig deeper” in order to discover
where “body-thoughts” are active and potentially inhibiting the
body’s ability to heal. Also, learn how to proceed with
follow-up client sessions with a 3-Answer Short Cut that
continues to reveal hidden layers of body memory. In the
healing-discovery process, KEH Level 3 also supports
incorporating other potentially useful healing modalities that
naturally compliment the BTMI modality. Students who complete
this course will receive their Certified Kvantum Facilitator 3
(CKF3) designation upon completion.
Prerequisite: Course MHs.M36: Kvantum
Energy Healing Level 2.
