A Drop of Om

Here is what I want you to know: you get in proportion to what you bring into anything you engage in. This holds for my online courses, online group healings, or private healing sessions. If you bring in a dose of curiosity, openness, and a willingness to explore and dive deeper into your wounds, you’ll get a deep relief and resolution. If you bring in fear, victimhood, entitlement, or complaints, you won’t receive much.

Years ago I had a client come in stressed and in fear mode. She left with little relief and wrote me an email about all the things I did wrong during the session that agitated her (it was an energy healing with crystals where I mostly stayed silent and occasionally breathed). I felt horrible and still think about that experience occasionally. What did I do wrong? What could I have done better? I am thankful to her because since then I have gotten better at explaining exactly what to expect from my sessions (including my breathing which I have to do as a healer to ground myself).

Over the years I realized that while as a healer I set the container for your healing, I have zero control over what you might get out of working with me through any of my offerings. You are in charge and in control of your experience. You have the option to be your own healer by choosing what you bring to the table.

So next time you invest in a healing session, check your worries, victimhood, shaming, blaming, and complaining at the door and come in fully open-hearted to be in the present moment. There is a soul reason why you choose a healer or a particular healing service. Even if it doesn’t feel like a huge shift to you right away, you never know what avenues of growth, flow, and ease a single healing session or online course may open up for you. Please be thankful to your healer for holding space and embodying and mirroring your own inner healer. It is not an easy job or one that should be taken lightly.

If you would like to see if we might be a good fit to work together on your energetic wounds, let’s chat.

With love and light,

You can read my article 5 Tools for Reducing Anxiety in Children (and For You !) on the Seacoast Moms blog. Check out their amazing selection of mom-approved articles, tips, local recommendations, and more.

This week has been wonderfully cozy. I am enjoying the gentleness that comes with the Fall.

I am also working faithfully on the Crystal Healing Simplified Online Course. Piece by piece, drop by drop it is coming together. I would love to know what about crystals, crystal healing, and meditation you would love to know more about. Please comment and let me know.

One of the things that delight me lately is practicing Qigong, which is a gentle movement meditation that calms down the nervous system and balances your energy field. My husband and I have been practicing this brief routine in the mornings.

I am enjoying listening to this playlist while I cook or read.

I am reading The Way Of Qigong – The Art And Science Of Chinese Energy Healing by Ken Cohen.

What do you listen, read, practice, and notice that fulfills you and brings you joy these days? Let me know.

There are two ways you can look at and experience life based on physics. One is that everything is solid and cannot change in any way other than three-dimensionally. The other is the opposite, everything can and does change and you always have a choice to turn things around.

Let’s explore the idea that everything is solid (very Newtonian physics). According to what we know about quantum physics, that is not true at all. There’s so much space in between atoms. More than that if you look beyond the atoms you see subatomic particles. And if you look beyond them (according to string theory) you see strings of vibrating light, which are not made up of matter at all, rather they are a cloud of vibrating probabilities that exist within a huge could of probability that we call life (remind you of a drop of OM within a sea of OM?).

What does this mean for you? It means that you have a choice. If you choose to exist within Newtonian physics of solids, finite mechanics, and deterministic probabilities, you carry on with life without the ability to have much say in it. If you open up your mind and body into quantum physics, you now have the option not to take a diagnosis, a condition, a trauma, or an unhealthy pattern for granted, but make choices to create the life you want to live in day by day.

It is as simple as that. You get to choose.

If you need help re-patterning your life and opening up to more expanded, blissful, light-filled possibilities, let’s chat.

Trauma means wound in Greek.

The dictionary definition of trauma is ‘physical injury or a deeply distressing or disturbing experience and the emotional shock following it.’

The dictionary definition of a wound is ‘an injury to living tissue or emotions.’

I also love that wound is the past tense and participle of wind, which means:

• ’cause (someone) to have difficulty breathing because of exertion or a blow to the stomach.’
• OR ‘repeatedly twist or coil (a length of something) around itself or a core.’

Your wounds knock the breath out of you. Big or small, one thing that is common in people with energetic wounds is that their breathing changes.

Your wounds are usually held in tightly wound places in your body and your energy field. When I am working in the field with tuning forks and encounter a wound, it is like encountering a piece of string that got messed up and turned into a tangle. If there is a tightness, stuckness, discomfort in the body it is an indication of a wound. There is another thing that twists and coils in you and thus carries your physical and energetic wounds: your DNA.

Your wounds are living, breathing dynamic beings that exist in your body and energy system. This is the part we often miss. We think that the wound is a static thing that doesn’t expand and contract or shift and change (it does). They way you breathe affects your wounding and how a particular wound may present itself that day. How you tend to your needs affects the wounds you carry. Just like a physical wound, there are ways to work with the energetic scars that can help unfold them and reduce their effect on your system. Often through the sustained practice of healing tools, you can begin to feel a quality of lightness and ease in your body and energy field. The wound-up places in you begin to ease and let go of their hold on you.

What I do as a healer is help you unwind the wounds with efficiency, expansion, and elegance. Together we dive into your physical and energetic landscape and figure out how to create lightness, openness, and flow where there isn’t. Working with a healer is something that will accelerate your healing in ways you can’t begin to imagine. Your daily work before, during, or after working with me is continuing to find ways to stay expanded, flowing, and full of lightness.

You are a new creation at every moment. You get to decide if you’ll live from the tightness of your wounds or step into re-creating flow and lightness either by yourself or by partnering with a healer.

Take this quiz to find out what your energetic wounds are.

What if you are a game of Tetris and all your wounding is the gaps and the chaos that builds up when you aren’t careful? Tetris is a wildly popular video game from the 80s. I used to love playing it. I remember getting so frustrated when something got messed up. The only way to make things flow again was to pay even more attention to what parts Tetris throws at you next and lay them down as best as you can.

We often think of our wounding as a giant box that can be opened up, then we take out what’s in it, dispose of it and everything will be OK. Unfortunately much like Tetris, ALL your wounding lives here in the now. There is no box to open. Your wounding is present in every moment of your life.

You can only tend to your wounds by finding presence and grace in the now. Much like a Tetris game, bringing awareness, attention, and a loving gaze to this moment will promptly melt away your past wounding and mishaps. Also much like a Tetris game, any time you lose your presence and caring awareness, all your wounds will build up on top of each other and life will be chaotic.

The more you realize that every moment is a chance to heal EVERYTHING, the more precious every moment becomes.
