My first official introduction to mantras, or more specifically the melodies that we subconsciously ‘play’ in our minds, came 21 years ago when my son, Phillip, was born. The story does not begin in the way you might imagine, as there was no mantra being played that day as I gave birth to Phillip at Vanderbilt Hospital; but a mantra was definitely present, nonetheless on this beautiful Sunday afternoon

In the space of deep exploration and inward movement within ourselves, true transformation is born. It is in the moments when we are allowing ourselves to be vulnerable that we do our best work, as it lays the groundwork for new foundations to be built. To quote Brené Brown:

To flourish our beauty means to nourish our bodies and minds with healthy, life-enhancing foods, uplifting thoughts, beautiful music and sound frequencies, beautiful images and spaces, as well as nourishing relationships around us which all increase our field and our energetic matrix.

I was introduced to Firewalking many years ago on a cold winter evening during a weekend Christmas party hosted by my teachers, Starr Fuentes, and her husband, Art Jackson.

Art, who is trained in many Shamanic practices including Firewalking, unexpectedly decided to facilitate a Firewalk on one of the evenings.

This is part 2 in this 2 part series on Clearing Energetic Cords. In part 1 we looked at the energetic components of ‘cords’, and how to approach healing this issue from a space of compassion while taking ownership.

In my practice as an Energy Healer, one of the subjects that comes up frequently is what is called cord-cutting. This refers to the practice of releasing energetic cords which are considered to connect two people together in an unhealthy way. Throughout my years of energetic studies, I learned many different ways and techniques to. . .

Do you believe that your future is set? That your destiny is already decided? Or do you believe that you have influence over the outcomes throughout your life?

I have always followed my intuition because it has always steered me in the right direction. This is a mystical phenomenon that we all can tap into, and the more we pay attention, the clearer the message becomes. So, when my heart ‘spoke’ to me in this way, I felt a strong nudge and knew that a profound shift was about to take place.

The beautiful frequencies of Angels are always around us, but in our everyday lives we tend to forget about tuning into them, and neglect to remember that we have their assistance available to us at any time.

Angels are here to help and guide us; it is their job to assist us and all living creatures, as well as assist in holding and improving the energy of this planet.They have a sacred contract and mission that they are here to fulfill as part of the whole of creation.

In last week’s blog post, we covered the possibilities we have available to tune into multiple dimensions for guidance and support not only in our daily lives, but also in helping and healing others. While this may feel new and unfamiliar to our society today, ancient cultures understood this quite well.

Every morning, upon waking, there is often a non-awareness in your ordinary day as you go through your routines. You primarily stay in your mind as you are focusing on the tasks ahead of you. Then, throughout your day you do your work, maybe play, you take care of yourself and everyone, and then you start this process all over again.

As I was preparing and choosing the cards for my last Intuitive Play yesterday, I definitely had mixed feelings coming up. The bigger part of me is filled with excitement for new adventures, as I create space in my life for them, and at the same time, saying goodbye to something I have consistently been doing for over a whole year now was bittersweet.

In ancient cultures, Shamanic Journeying was used to bring vital elements from the spirit world into our reality. In our present day, with the help of a trained Shamanic Practitioner, any person who is willing to delve into this space can learn how to open their intuitive gifts to achieve similar results.

Today, I’d like to suggest that how you define your journey through life influences how you experience your life.

Reiki has been interwoven in my life for such a long time now that it is hard to imagine what life was like before. Once I knew of the empowerment that this healing modality had to offer, there was no turning back for me.

As the first wave of warmth and sunlight hit my skin yesterday, I was reminded of the importance of playfulness and how wonderful it feels when we immerse ourselves into the feeling of that inner childlike connection of innocent play, of being fully immersed in the joy of the moment of creating.

In last week's blog, I mentioned that I experienced someone close to me healing holistically from illness, and today I wanted to dive more deeply into what happened.

This writing is inspired from my years as an Energy Healer and Hypnotherapist during which time I have come to understand that the only way for us to truly heal is to shift our patterns so we can bring our mind as well as our bodies into a state of well-being!

Kindness and compassion are often gestures that we grant to others, yet we usually don’t allow enough space for being kind and compassionate toward ourselves. Such a lack of self-love is a learned response, and it is based on the reactions we receive or perceive from those around us from the time we are born.

After completing a healing session, I often get asked, “So, what just happened?”, as my client’s conscious mind is trying to make sense of the shifts that have just taken place. In this writing I will attempt, as best I can, to explain what happens in those spaces in between, in those moments when we are not consciously looking for the answers but yet, there is more space created than we could ever logically imagine.
