My Journey to Peace
Have you ever asked yourself "where did we come from?", "why are we here?" and "who/what is God?" Me too. I was that kid in school who asked the teacher a million questions, trying to understand why things are the way they are, how everything worked, and the nature of our true origin.
​
Despite going to Sunday School, reading different iterations of the bible, and joining a bible study, I grew up without sufficient answers to these questions, so they always seemed to linger and re-emerge. I felt confused and disconnected from my true essence. In my late teens/early 20's, I experienced mental and emotional imbalances, low confidence & self-worth, which led to developing an eating disorder and addictions. I was moving through the motions of life without awareness; I was not conscious of my actions or mindful of my thoughts. I spent 8 years stuck in this cycle of self-sabotage until one day I woke up and decided I wanted to change and experience a more nourishing life.
​
I started going to therapy and reading books about self-help/personal development. I was guided to start learning about quantum physics, energy healing, yoga and yogic philosophy (the eight limbs). I defined what my values are and started living by them. I learned the meaning of integrity - do what you say and say what you mean. I started to understand the power of our language, intention, thoughts and the spoken word. Everything is energy and everything is in a constant state of vibration. By raising one's own vibrational frequency through practices such as meditation, compassion, and mindfulness, we align with higher states of consciousness and experience a greater sense of connection with God (Source, Universe).
​
Through my learning and self-rediscovery, I learned how to transmute and alchemize pain and turn it into my greatest gifts. These experiences helped me understand that pain has a purpose. Everything truly does happen for a reason, to continue our soul's journey of evolution.
Discovering alternative healing modalities helped me along my journey of awakening and inner transformation. This path is always evolving - there are many layers to peel back, and I am always learning and embodying new wisdom. I recently discovered the healing powers of breathwork, and I am passionate about sharing this transformational medicine with as many people as possible.
As a lifelong student, I am very grateful that I was guided to these practices so that I can ultimately help others on their journey of remembering. I believe we are all on this journey until we experience Samadhi, and all the chakras become a unified field once again.
I am a certified Reiki Master, Somatic Breath Coach, and 200-hour Yoga Teacher. I am also certified in sound healing. My professional background is in Public Relations and Communications. I use these skills to educate people about energy healing.​ My offerings aim to help you expand your knowledge of self-healing to attain joy, inner peace, and personal empowerment. Part of this work includes releasing limiting beliefs and our false identity that blocks the flow of life force energy, so that we can achieve health, higher consciousness and awareness, and a greater capacity for giving and receiving unconditional love.
Through our time working together, you will receive pure loving presence and care, personalized support and take-home tools to help you raise your vibration.
​Namaste,
