For as long as I can remember… I felt everything and everyone. I felt the energy of the person in front of me talking to me. I felt the energy behind another’s words rippling throughout my entire body. I felt animals’ pureness. I could sense the spirit world as I was drifting off to sleep. I said “thank you” to trees, to life because I knew they could feel me too. I am very empathic. I am an intuitive. I love deeply for life. I am a light-worker.

However, being misunderstood and not understanding myself fully with this gift of sensitivity, I did go through a “dark night of the soul” for awhile. This journey ebbed and flowed.. but mostly I found myself wanting to runaway or numb from all the pain. The pain was so much because I absorbed so much over the years without ever clearing my energy or honoring my gifts. This energetic heaviness manifested itself as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, skin problems, low immunity and bi-polar. The combination of being very sensitive and imbalanced made me feel very “different” when young. Overtime, this created a deep loneliness in this human journey and often I was met with the ultimate fork in the road quite —

to be here or to leave.

& once I made that choice to be here fully (life is so precious!), I knew I had to make choices that aligned with my heart, regardless how everyone else felt about it. I was no longer going to contort myself to fit another person’s mold or society’s mold of who I “should be” in life (people please) and fully step into myself.

Shortly after I made some personal decisions to take a more holistic approach to healing — the meditation journey began.

A family member sent this 21 day meditation journey over to me one day and it all began. I haven’t stopped since.. nine plus years of meditating everyday. This meditation became my medicine. I no longer needed to numb or runaway. I needed to face everything within and be with it fully to transmute it (alchemy). I faced the fear, the pain, the loneliness, the trauma.. and began to heal. Overtime, as I felt more still and at peace within my “being,” I began to take meditation and breath-work teaching courses, joined a six month holistic nutrition program and began my reiki teaching journey.

I learned how to channel light energy. Heal myself. Manifest. I began to harmonize my body, mind, and spirit. The anxiety, depression, panic attacks — all the dis-ease within began to completely dissipate. I created new neural pathways in my brain, which meant new thoughts and perspectives on life, and more open doors to experiences and people I have always felt within existed. I shifted not only the relationship to myself, but my relationship to everyone and everything.
