Taking My Power Back

Taking my power back ✨


In Feb 2017 I was incredibly lost.

I had just had a major falling out with a friend, was invested in online dating because I craved a partner to feel worthy, and I was struggling to make ends meet only working a PRN job as a social worker. 


I was in desparate need of guidance and direction.


I felt anxious and depressed and at times had thoughts of “why am I here?” and wanting to no longer be on this planet. My anxiety was so bad at times that I would just sit there and shake, feeling incredibly paralyzed.


A friend suggested I try Reiki, to see if that would give me the insights I was looking for. I had never heard of it and was skeptical, but I was so desparate for any sort of help, that I found and connected with a beautiful soul and Reiki Master. It was also around that time that I discovered I was an Empath.


I had my first session with her and the visions that I had during my session were so incredible. I saw my higher self in a beam of starlight transcend down into my body to be reconnected.


I saw a swirling white light above my left eye, which is where I always get migraines. She later told me it was to cut out a sea urchin that had planted itself in my eye.


Sounds unreal right? 


But since being introduced to Reiki, my anxiety is gone. I became a Reiki Master myself and do self healing treatments for my migraines, adrenals & thyroid. To heal chakra issues, especially root, sacral and solar plexus chakras, related to not feeling safe, stable or good enough, feeling insecure, ungrounded, and absorbing everyone else’s energy all the time because I’m an Empath. And the list goes on.


There is much more to this story of mine, as you can probably imagine. But I share a piece of me to let you know, you’re not alone. That anxiety and depression and suicidal thoughts aren’t meant for you. That there is healing for you. That you are worthy of everything you desire. That you’re not crazy, you just feel everything so deeply and that is ok. 


I may not be exactly where I want to be, but I no longer struggle with anxiety, depression and feeling unworthy. Everything flows easily to me now. I know my worth and believe in myself and have faith that the Universe always has my back. And that is a win in my book.


And I am here for you…ready when you are
