Enchantment

Life feels heavy when you don’t open up to the possibility of magic. It is important not to give into your tendency to push magic aside. This involves a simple intention of staying present to what this moment offers, and then the next, and then the next.

Becoming aware is a decision. It means you open up to all you feel, with all the intensity. When you feel life with as much power as you can, without pushing anything away, you cannot help but touch the enchantment of life.

There is magic weaved in everything you are going through right now, however painful it may feel. Life is full of magic, complete and utter enchantment, all you need is opening up to sensing, noticing, and allowing it to be a part of your unfolding.

With love and light,

You Are Magic

I want you to know that you are magic.

From the outside what may be occurring in a healing session may look like magic. As soon as I go into your field (usually just by thinking of you), I may tell you where your wounds are and as we dive in deeper together, I’ll tell you exactly what age they happened to you and who was involved and what they were feeling, saying or not saying at the time, and even though what happened when you were born, then at age 4, 15 and 28 seemingly may have nothing to do with each other or with what you are going through right now, we’ll soon discover that they have been related all along and it all makes sense in an unusual, magnetic, poetic, weird and fantastic way. And as we name the things that need to be seen, heard and understood, they lose their hold on you and suddenly possibilities, space, and breathing room open up in your chest, throat, heart, or wherever you needed life force the most.

Here’s the truth: you are the magic allowing things, energies, and patterns that you have been carrying to get untangled. Showing up at my doorstep with courage despite having gone through hell and perhaps still going through it. Holding out hope for healing and gathering all your dignity, your will for and faith in life even though it has been hard. Putting your trust in me and this thing that we do together to uplift, transform, and add sparkles back into your existence.

I am in service to you for as long as I can. I bow to you and your courage for going on a journey with me by trusting your intuition and nourishing your hope that life will be and can be better, that you can feel better and lighter.

And if we haven’t worked together yet and you are still unsure of how to begin untangling your energetic wounds by yourself, or with me or somebody else holding the space for you, all you need is the decision to trust your own soul to light the way and be open to being amazed and surprised every step of the way.

Resistance

In the realm of healing, resistance is something that needs to be understood and talked about. When there is any type of change happening in your life or in the times that you most need something to change, you will experience resistance. More often than not, ‘what is’ prefers to stay as it is. Yet change and flow are essential to our existence.

Even when you have a great desire to change and shift things in your life, you will run into resistance. Sometimes it shows up as tendencies, habits, or emotional outbursts you can’t seem to get out of. Sometimes it shows up as avoiding what you know in your bones is really healing and good for you. Sometimes it is you, sometimes it plays out in the people around you.

It is all about push and pull. Every decision has a magnetic quality. When you make a life-affirming decision and act on it, you are creating a magnetic pull in a certain direction. All the decisions and vibrational experiences that came before then also carry a magnetic pull. The question is which direction is stronger.

The next question is, which direction are you feeding? With every life-supporting, life-enhancing, life-affirming thought, intention, word, and action, you create a new reality and a new direction for yourself. When the old thoughts, intentions, words, and actions begin to push you back, you can always choose a different life-supporting direction.

What I find often is that the wounds contribute a whole lot to resistance. Sometimes just holding a positive vibration isn’t enough. It becomes necessary to look at what wounds lie underneath the pull of resistance. When a certain unhealthy vibration from your childhood or adolescence is stuck in your field, it becomes a whole lot harder to sustain a life-affirming flow of energy in your life.

If you find that the pull of your resistance is too strong for you to handle, let’s chat about what wound might be contributing to it and figure out how to go beyond it.

Chakra Alignment

This video is all about alignment in life with regards to chakra philosophy. What does it mean to have aligned chakras? How do you know when they fall out of alignment? Most importantly, what does it all mean for you? Why should you care about alignment? Regardless of where you are in life, you need to understand what it means to be aligned, to be able to live a more fulfilled and embodied life. In this video, I am sharing questions to ask yourself for each chakra to figure out whether you have alignment. Please comment with any questions you might have and to let me know of your alignment answers. Please also let me know if there is anything you would like me to cover in a live video.

Equilibrium

Often we are pulled in different directions by our emotions and thoughts. Repetitive mind stories, patterns and emotions tend to run our lives. Luckily you have the option to turn back the tide.

It comes down to thinking about what brings you to balance. The balance I am talking about is not a state of mind. It is the recognition that whatever thought-form is pulling you in a certain direction, you have the power to recognize it and pull in the opposite way.

This may look like a thousand different ways. It may be you recognizing how isolated you have been lately and taking the time to reach out to a friend. It may be realizing that this story in your mind has been on repeat forever (I am not enough, I am not lovable, etc.) and consciously replacing it with a new life-affirming one. It may be understanding when you have failed to meet your body’s needs and taking the time to tend to your physical being.

Creating equilibrium begins with knowing when to take care of yourself. It all starts with recognizing what is going on and balancing your life accordingly. Sometimes if the scales have been tipped in a certain direction for too long, you may need some expert help to figure out where to start and how to bring yourself back into balance. Small steps combined with the support of someone you trust are absolutely important in re-balancing your system.

Here are a few ways for working on your equilibrium:

  • I would be happy to work with you on figuring out your unique equilibrium needs. Schedule a chat with me at this link.
  • ​I have been sharing tips about intuition and seeing auras (and what it all means for you), in my private Facebook Group Chakra Bliss Party. You can join and watch them here.
  • Here’s a Youtube video I prepared last week, that gives you step by step directions for receiving dream guidance. This is a simple and powerful way to connect with your intuition. You can watch it here.

On Being A Healer

Here are a few things you should know about me as a Healer and about the process of working with me:

  • I read your vibration. You can tell me how good you feel all you want. As soon as we connect over the phone or you step into my office, I have a sense of where you are in your life. It shows up as a knowing of your chakra states and tells me a lot more than you can tell me with words. Where you are isn’t who you are. Before even meeting you, I will know exactly what chakra blockages and issues you are working with right now.
  • There’s no point in lying or pretending. Your vibration speaks louder than words. I know when you aren’t telling me the truth and when you are circumventing the real issue. In these cases instead of confronting people, I gently direct them towards what needs to be realized. Sometimes this takes one question. Sometimes we need to have three sessions before they will feel safe and brave enough to tell me what’s actually going on.
  • I reflect your wisdom back to you. I will tune into your inner knowing and wisdom and translate your highest vibrational guidance back to you. Meaning the wisdom, the guidance comes from you (not me) and I am a translator for your inner knowing.
  • I hear clear guidance when I ask. It means that the vibration of your system and the guidance from your highest vibrational guides and helpers are translated into words in my system. In other words, I hear guidance to specific questions I ask or sometimes it simply drops into me as I am listening to your system or you may be talking about something and I will be hearing something contradictory or seemingly unrelated to what you are saying. Another way this happens is through bodily sensations.
  • I am not telling you everything I hear. Every single thing I hear as a guidance passes through my internal election mechanism. At any given time I am only sharing about 40 to 50% of what I am hearing. Sometimes it isn’t the right time for you to hear something. Sometimes it isn’t helpful. Sometimes it would get you out of your body and into your mind. I refer to guidance more often than you can imagine to filter out what’s unnecessary and give you only that which you need to hear.
  • It is not my job to heal everybody and I don’t offer unsolicited advice. For me to work with your energy field, your consent is required. The moment you make an appointment with me or register for a group event you are giving me your consent. Occasionally I do check on people around me when I am in a Cafe (mostly happens automatically) or when I am with family or friends to make sure that they are OK, but unless someone specifically asks me, I won’t let them know what I am reading or any messages I might be getting. Your free will is the most important shield you will ever need. Most people aren’t ready to dig up old wounds or to embark on a healing journey. It is not my job to discern that, it is yours. I do hold the intention of healing energy to work through me anyway it can and send loving kindness to everyone I come into contact with. But diving into what needs to be healed has to be your decision.
  • I don’t work for you. I work for your soul and the souls of all beings everywhere, and the life-affirming, life-supporting energy of the universe. You may ask me to work on your throat chakra, but your soul and energy system may tell me to start with your second. In that case, I will work on your second chakra.
  • I hold you in healing light. There are times when I am not given a specific guidance because it may be too complex or too many layers may be involved. In those times, I am guided to hold you in the life-giving, life-affirming healing light of the universe. I leave it up to the intelligence of this source energy to know how to work and where to work. I am often asked if I get tired after healing sessions. The answer is a big no. Because the healing light isn’t coming from me personally, I am a channel and space-holder for it. And the truth is as I channel this intelligent source energy, I am basked in it too, which is a wonderful gift. There are multiple ways that this energy works through me. I may be looking at you and it flows towards you from my eyes. It may flow through my hands. It may flow through my words written or spoken out loud. It may flow through the tuning forks. Lately, I am finding that it has a mind of its own and likes to flow in and through my entire body when it is needed.
  • When it comes to healing, there is no straight line. We may get to the truth and the wisdom you need quickly. Or we may get there in three months. Healing is a non-linear, multi-dimensional, magical, extraordinary journey. You and your soul are in charge of how much and in what way the energy will work for you in establishing new life-supporting pathways.
  • How you start out with me will not be how you leave. Through seeing what needs to be seen, heard and understood, and through getting in touch with your inner wisdom, you will leave with more ease, a deeper understanding of yourself and most importantly with a higher vibrational state than you came in with. That to me is a miracle that I feel honored to witness with every client.
  • Every time you heal an energetic wound, you are healing everyone around you. This is another miracle of healing. By discovering your patterns and re-shaping your vibration, you are creating ripples in the universe that travel through your DNA and energy field to positively affect everyone you come into contact with and everyone in your blood and soul line. What is in one is in the whole. By taking the time to heal, you are helping heal our species as a whole.
  • Miracles begin to happen the moment you decide and take action to heal. You have free will. You are in charge. This means that your decision to heal and look at and be with your patterns and be open to creating new life-affirming ones, changes everything. Often, the energy begins to work in you and on you the moment you make an appointment with me. Whether you decide to work with me or not, remember this one: your decision to heal and hold more light is one of the most important, magical, life-changing, life-affirming decisions you can ever make.

All of these apply whether we are having a conversation on the phone or in-person, or working with crystals, forks, tapping or simply talking. I am available to chat with you to listen to where you are energetically and give you a recommendation on where to start your chakra healing journey. You can reserve a 15 Minute FREE video call with me at this link.

Have a beautiful, miracle-filled day,

With love and light,

Damla

Every Day Is A New Opportunity

Taking a good look at your choices begins by pausing and understanding that each moment is another opportunity to make another choice. Your choices brought you to where you are right now. Your choices will take you to where you wish to be. Your choices will allow you to be ok with the in-between state while you move towards where you want to be.

Your choices matter a lot. Choosing who to hang out with will shape if you get nourished or depleted in your relationships. Allocating your energy at work, at home, and in your relationships will determine whether you end up exhausted at the end of the day. How you prioritize your limited resources of time, energy, and attention will create your reality and how you relate to it.

Every day is a new opportunity to choose more life-affirming, life-supporting actions, thoughts, intentions and to re-determine your priorities. Sometimes this takes a sacred pause. A pause where you are not responsible for anything or anyone other than your precious self. Where you put your daily hustle on hold to see what matters most to you and how your choices are affecting you and those you love every single day.

When you find yourself stuck in your past and current choices, find some precious time for a sacred pause. Take some time to re-evaluate what you want, what you need and how you wish to allocate your resources to live the life you really want to live. If you need help with figuring out what you want, need and what to do next, let’s chat.

With love and light,

Damla

You Are A System

You are a system. You are not just your stomach. Your stomach doesn’t exist hanging in space. It is a part of an intricate mechanism and is intimately in relationship with its surrounding cells, tissues and organs. So are all of your ‘seeming’ parts and pieces. You also don’t end where your skin ends. Your electricity and your field extend way beyond your physical body. The physical, the electrical, the emotional, the energetic bodies all form an interwoven, extraordinary, and an always changing system.

You interact with other systems. You don’t exist in the ether all alone. Just like your stomach, your physical, emotional and energetic bodies interact with everyone and everything around you. You get affected by other people, other planets, and the stars including the Sun. And you, in turn, affect everything there is.

You are a probability cloud disguised as a body. The ability of your system to re-organize and make itself whole is unbelievable. Moment-to-moment you get to make choices, even choosing your own energy and vibration, and your whole system responds to your choices. Every single time you make a life-supporting choice, you are changing your system and everyone and everything around you in a positive way.

You are a multi-layered, multi-dimensional light-being. So your healing cannot and will not be just one dimensional. You need to take into account how everything in your life works or doesn’t work, and you need to figure out how and where to start. Here’s the secret: your system actually knows exactly where and how to begin your healing journey.

When I tune into your system, I sense your vibrational reality and I translate that experience into words. Some people call this intuition. Some call it clairaudience. I call it bringing what your system needs and wishes you to see, hear, understand and transform to light. Let me know if you need my help.
