TOFINO, BC – Renowned spiritual guide and former software engineer Mariam McKinney has announced an expansive new workshop series focused on her innovative “Quantum Field Reading” technique, marking a significant evolution in her teaching practice.
The new monthly workshop series, which begins next month and will be available both in-person and online, represents the culmination of McKinney’s three-year journey developing this unique intuitive approach. Drawing from her background in both advanced technology and ancient healing traditions, these workshops aim to make psychic development accessible to analytical thinkers and spiritual seekers alike.
“Quantum Field Reading isn’t about mystical powers—it’s about developing the innate sensitivity we all possess to perceive the information contained within the quantum field,” McKinney explains. “My engineering background allows me to present these concepts in a methodical, practical way that resonates with people who might otherwise dismiss such practices.”
McKinney’s unusual career trajectory has become something of a legend in wellness circles. After experiencing what she describes as a “quantum awakening” during a dawn surf session in 2021, she left her position as lead software engineer at AeroLogix Systems, where she had spent years developing AI-driven logistics platforms for major airlines. Relocating permanently to Tofino’s rugged coastline, she established her practice integrating yogic traditions, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and principles from quantum physics.
Dr. James Chen, who mentored McKinney during her studies at the Pacific Rim College of Holistic Medicine in Vancouver, notes that her approach represents an important bridge between scientific understanding and spiritual practice.
“What makes Mariam’s work significant is her ability to translate complex quantum concepts into practical techniques for personal transformation,” says Chen. “She’s taking esoteric knowledge and making it both accessible and applicable to daily life.”
The new workshop series will focus on teaching participants to access what McKinney calls “non-local consciousness”—the ability to perceive information beyond the limitations of the five senses. Participants will learn various techniques for quieting the analytical mind, recognizing subtle energetic patterns, and interpreting the information they receive.
Early participants report profound experiences. “As someone with a background in physics, I was skeptical but curious,” shares Michael Torres, a software developer who participated in McKinney’s pilot program. “What surprised me was how methodical and precise the techniques are. This isn’t vague new-age thinking—it’s a structured approach to accessing a different kind of awareness.”
The demand for McKinney’s teaching has grown steadily since she began offering online classes six years ago. Her current waitlist for one-on-one intuitive readings extends several months, prompting her to develop this workshop series as a way to share her methodology more widely.
In addition to the new workshop series, McKinney continues to offer daily meditation sessions, weekly yoga classes, and quarterly in-person retreats from her beachfront studio in Tofino. Her work combines rigorous practice with compassionate guidance, particularly resonating with professionals and academics seeking to expand their understanding of reality while maintaining their analytical perspective.
Registration for the new “Quantum Field Reading” workshop series opens next week through McKinney’s website. The online version will be accessible to students worldwide, while in-person sessions will be limited to twelve participants.
