Are you angry?

I HOPE so!

It is my calling to help you calm your anxiety, soften the edges of your pain, and help you feel alive and free in your body so that you can shine in all you do.

I’ve recently learned the root of the word heal. From Old English hælan was to "cure; to make whole, sound and well," and from Proto-Germanic hailjan, literally translates as "to make whole". This struck me so strongly when I read it as it is remarkably aligned with how I work with clients and guides my work at a most fundamental level. And it has been the foundation of my own spiritual path especially in the past few years.

Presence… That quality of being so wrapped up in and grounded in the presence of another, that you almost forget yourself. OR so present with YOURSELF, that what was hiding beneath the surface of your day, your life, can finally be seen, heard, and witnessed. Once we've had a taste of the power of presence, it can be difficult to accept life any other way.

Despite many beautiful moments in my life recently, I have learned more about the inner world experience of darkness in the past year than any other year of my life; with the added layer of having a higher level of awareness than ever before as well.

I got Covid last month – August in Seattle is not the time you want to be stuck indoors sick, but there I was, along with my husband who also had it. 🙃

I used to dread getting up in the morning for work.

After receiving the big healing and clearing on my hip (see my previous blog post, Part I, if you’re not sure what I’m talking about), I had an interesting time navigating the world with this new feeling in my body and energy field. Suddenly I was walking without pain, felt lighter and freer in a way that I hadn’t felt in a while, and also in a way that hadn’t known that I known how much heaviness I was carrying.

I recently spent two weeks in Ireland with my psychic/energy tools teacher and another teacher/healer who was co-leading the journey to sacred sites throughout the country.

I recently learned about the practice of honoring the last full moon before the winter solstice, known as the Mourning Moon, that stems from some earth-based traditions.

Last week was a BIG week. Not in the usual way one might imagine - an anniversary, birthday, new job, big sale, sobriety date, or birth announcement... but rather in a subtle, more internal way.

2020 was such a year and everyone had their own unique reaction to and experience with the events that unfolded, and to some extent continue to unfold.

I promised a blog post on anxiety in my last newsletter and this week I decided to make it a video instead - sometimes it’s just easier to convey a message in that way. You can access the video here.

Soooooo, you may ask... just what exactly IS my energy field like and how can I understand it better? What does it mean to heal your energy? Also - how do you know what one’s energy is like if you can’t see it?

Allow yourself the opportunity to try these ideas gently and with a huge dose of self-compassion.

Let's face it, we're not often encouraged to feel fully into our anger.

It's been a difficult time for many people this past month. From the catapulting of sexual assault to the national news headlines with the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings to the recent (seemingly ongoing) shootings in grocery stores, synagogues and beyond, there is a palpable response both collectively and for many people individually, in their own bodies.
