I find myself saying this a lot lately. I know from personal experience, this is very true. It is the hardest work you will ever do on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level, as they are all connected. However, when you come out of the mud to the other side, all the work will be worth it!

When I decided I was going to do whatever I had to do to heal from all of the things around the Fibromyalgia, it was a huge leap of faith and so much trust. Trust in myself that I could do what was needed, but also discerning who I could trust to help and support me. There had been many doctors and therapists who had tried to help me, but they were not the ones who were supposed to help. When I sat and just listened, I realized that I had the power to trust my inner guidance and make decisions for myself. This was a monumental shift for me. It was time for me to trust myself.


My next biggest leap of faith was going to the John Barnes Myofascial Release Pain Treatment Center in Paoli, PA. for 2 weeks. I left my son who was not even 2 years old, which was so hard. These 2 weeks helped my "strip down" on all levels. I got off all of the western medicine drugs, which helped for a short period of time. However, they were a big part of the problem at this point for me , and I had to detox so I could be clear.


From this point on, I tried different healing therapies. Some helped, some did not, but I was learning to tune in to what was really helping, which was instrumental for the rest of the healing process. Throughout all of this, I was realizing the emotional, energetic connection that was happening in my body, and I began to cry a lot. I mean A LOT!! When I surrendered to letting go of fear, doubt, grief, judgement, anger, self pity, etc....I made another monumental shift in my healing. It was then that I realized that letting go and surrendering was so much more powerful and healing, than holding on to all the junk that was weighing me down. It was then that I realized just how powerful the mind-body connection is and how important it is to heal all of these things together. We heal as a whole, not in parts., and from the inside out.


My journey continued with ups and downs, but they began to become less like an "earthquake" and more like a little storm passing through. It was then that I could step into receiving Reiki, realizing how profound of a healing therapy it is, so I could not only integrate it into my healing, but to learn from it to pass it on and support others with the magic of Reiki.


Today, we are strongly shifting as a collective, which means there is so much happening on an individual level. The call to connect to our True Selves. I know I needed to go through all of the suffering, pain, upheaval and recovery from it all in order to help and support my clients, family and friends, in a way that is for their greatest and highest good. I see the incredible stories from the beautiful souls that I work with, and I am able to see them as the light that they are and see the healing actually happening before my eyes. Miracles everyday. I am incredibly grateful for all that I went through, the lessons I have learned and the healing I have done so I can show up fully for the people who look to me for Reiki. It is a responsibility I hold sacred.


If Healing was easy, everyone would be doing it! However, I see more and more people ready and willing to trust themselves, jump into the work and shine their brightest! I am ready if you are.........


In Love and Light..
