Journey of the Light Worker

The last couple of weeks have been pretty intense for me especially with travelling for work but the Christmas break is just around the corner and I am very much looking forward to it! I just wanted to share with you a few examples of the Universe sending me lessons over the past 2 weeks. The Universe has my back Lesson 1 - My new career is A-OK and I will be fine I was basically told by work last week that they would extend my current contract for another 6 months but due to budget pressures, it was unlikely that my contract would get renewed after that time. My initial reaction was "Ok - this is outside of my control and the Universe will provide so I need to just accept it". Deep down I was freaking out - what was my financial situation going to look like next year? Would I be able to live the way I am now and would I be ready to completely dive in to my new career?? I went to sleep that day not knowing what my future was going to look like and to my pleasant sur...

Yesterday I had a break down at home in front of my boyfriend. Why you ask? It was probably a combination of things, but one of it was my work. Not my healing work because that is absolutely something that I love, but my work as a lawyer for an IT company. Since July this year, many of you know that I made a big change in my life stepping down from full time employment and coming back to work as a contractor for 3 days a week and studying full time for 2 days a week. From the studying perspective, I finished my Diploma in 3 weeks (yep - 3 weeks). From a work perspective, every day has been increasingly more difficult to bear. Why is that? I feel it's because I can really see the light at the end of the tunnel for me in terms of my transition of becoming a full time healer. And whilst that is great, people who know me also know that I like to plan things and like to get to wherever I want to be quickly - very quickly.  I've noticed that my attitude at work has deteriorated...

There's so many different modalities of healing out there and today I wanted to focus on sound healing. What is this you ask? Essentially, another way of healing your body but using the frequency and the waves of sound. Now as a healing modality this might not necessarily resonate with a lot of you and that's fine. There's heaps of other modalities that will suit you better than sound healing. To be honest, I wasn't too sure of how this would go but I did have a taste of it before when my crystal healer played some crystal bowls and I could feel the sound vibrating through my body so I thought I'd give it a try. Also, leading up to the healing session yesterday, I had been reading about the effects of certain mantras like repeating Aum or Om and that each chakra had a particular sound that was associated with it. Over the past couple of weeks I had been working on trying to feel my kundalini energy. My boyfriend had his rising years ago so we were both working o...

This week has been a bit insane but it closes the chapter on the drama known as the race for the US presidential seat. Yesterday I was walking to work and felt that the energy of the "air" around me was incredibly heavy. Heavy and gunky - that's probably the best way I can describe it. It wasn't until later that it dawned on me that perhaps the heaviness I felt in the air was a world energy that could very well be related to the anticipation of the outcome of the presidential election. Well, we all know the outcome of that election - it was a HUGE upset, Donald Trump is the next US president - who would have thought? My initial reaction to this was that everything was over. I was incredibly worried about what he would do especially given some of the ridiculous rants he had as part of the entire campaign. Obviously a lot of people also have the same sentiment which then is blowing up with the number of protests that are being held. I've kind of had enough of ...

2 weeks ago I realised the amount of stress that work (my lawyer work), placed on me. I was in the middle of some pretty big contract negotiations and on one of my working days, I went home and all of a sudden I felt incredibly drained in energy and didn't want to do anything apart from sitting in front of the TV and vege out. The next day I went to work, it was another big day and once again I came home and felt completely drained of energy. I was slightly confused as to what was going on because I had never really felt that sort of drain before when I was working full time. I was discussing this with my boyfriend and he told me that the reason why I felt the energy drain was because I was stressed out at work, and I could feel it a lot more this time around because my routine had changed - i.e. I had a contrast as I only work 3 days a week and study full time the other 2 days (which I quite enjoy). It then made me think of when I went on holidays last time it took a while to wi...

Over the past 24 hours, there has been a particular theme that has popped up at least 3 times (for 3 different people). As most of us know, if the angels and our lovely spirit guides want us to pay attention to certain messages, they tend to do it in 3s. The message is this - the underlying cause of a lot of our issues is the fact that we do not accept ourselves for who we are - i.e. we do not love ourselves. That kind of makes sense if we think about it... generally when things annoys us, when people annoy us, these things/people are reflections of us - reflections of the shadow aspect of ourselves that wants to make an appearance.  I think you'll agree with us that we are our own worst critic. We constantly make mistakes, but instead of just accepting it for what it is, a mistake, and learning from it, we berate ourselves by thinking Jeeze I can't believe I made this mistake! or I should have picked this up  or I should have known that this was going to happen  et...

As a healer, my main purpose is to help or facilitate you to understand the way you work, understand how stresses manifest in your body and to assist your body's natural healing process. As part of my massage education, I was required to have the first aid certificate. For most of us we just think it is a tick in the box and nothing could ever happen where you would need those skills that you learnt in 5 minutes to kick into action.  Yesterday I was attending my friend's birthday lunch and we were sitting at the table having a good yarn over great food and wine when all of a sudden we heard this large commotion coming from the other side of the room. An older woman was making some pretty horrible gasping noises and her daughter was absolutely hysterical thinking that her mother was about to die as the woman kept exclaiming that she couldn't breathe. The daughter started yelling for help and all of us looked over. It's at that moment when things seem to take forever - ...

Recently, my boyfriend gave me a biodynamic craniosacral therapy session (again another benefit of having a boyfriend who is a healer - free healing sessions). During that session, one of my spirit guides decided to reveal himself to me - his name is Dante. Whether he is the  Dante or not isn't a real concern, but he told me that the reason why he revealed himself to me at this point in time was to teach me two particular things - acceptance and perspective. The other day I was having a chat to my boyfriend about the fact that I still found it hard to forgive my dad for what he did. In addition to that, I was also pissed off at my grandfather because, at his 90th birthday party, the only thing he could do was tell me off (in front of a lot of family members) for not trying to contact him (e.g. phoning him up on Chinese New Year, etc) and not attending family functions and my initial reaction was me thinking well I didn't think I was obliged to contact you to say happy birthda...

I did something a few days ago that I had thought was impossible - and to me it shows that it really is about your mindset and your thoughts/words and intentions. Let me rewind a bit and take you through what happened. Over the past few days I have suddenly had a big urge to do something to help someone else. Ok ok isn't that why you're transitioning from law to be a healer? some of you might ask - yes, but what I really mean was that I wanted to donate some money to a good cause and I was simply stuck at what to donate it to (until I asked the Universe). A month or so back a very dear friend of mine had shared the story of this wonderful social enterprise that is based in Melbourne named Thankyou. You might know them as being the guys behind Thankyou Water. What do they do? Essentially they exist purely for one goal - to eradicate global poverty. 100% of the profit from the products that they sell go towards eradicating global poverty. Anyway, one of the co-founders recen...

It's been a while since my last blog post but today I wanted to focus on the topic of coming into your own - owning your truth and sticking to your guns. For me, this is quite personal. In fact, I had a particular incident this morning where I had to stand up for my beliefs against the people who brought me up - my parents. I grew up in a very devout Catholic family, and for the first 33 years of my life, went to church every Sunday (except for when I couldn't which was when I was generally on holidays). Earlier this year I made the decision to stop going to church because it no longer represented what I believed in. I could go on and on about the reasons why but I won't - it's suffice to say that I stopped going, and I broke it to my parents a few months ago. Over the past few months, whilst my parents wouldn't hassle me constantly, I would get the random texts or phone calls where they remind me to go to church, go to church on a particular holy day of oblig...

Over the past month or so I've been undergoing a process of releasing a lot of things that no longer serve my life's purpose. I thought it had come to a head when I went to my retreat in Adelaide, but boy was I wrong! On Sunday, I went and received a Kahuna massage. Now, I woke up that Sunday feeling like I had a slight fever, but my body was insisting that I get out of my bed and do some yoga - so I did. During my Kahuna massage, I felt like I was releasing a lot from various areas of my body, and for the majority of the session my hands were tingling like crazy and I felt like I had to constantly flick my fingers to dissipate the intense energy that had decided to amass in my fingertips. After the massage, my fever hit the roof. I walked home almost disoriented, and all I wanted to do was to have a hot shower and jump into bed. This was 5.30pm - I couldn't even eat anything. I was exhausted and really feverish. Throughout the night I had hot and cold flushes, I began ...

Tomorrow is the full moon bringing the theme of releasing the old and making way for the new which is the perfect message for this blog post. Over the weekend, I attended a retreat in Adelaide to learn more about craniosacral therapy. There were 16 of us students there and I didn't really know what to expect. I flew into Adelaide a day earlier and whilst I was having dinner with my friend, we were talking about how much had gone on for each of us in the past few months (more so for him as he experienced his kundalini awakening) and we were really not sure about what the weekend was going to hold for us. What we did know however was that there were going to be big shifts for both of us and boy the weekend really did not disappoint. Friday started off quite early and having been introduced to the 16 other students and being allocated our rooms for the stay, we pretty much started practising the new techniques on each other. One such technique was unwinding - essentially it's ...

Short post today. I finally got around to creating an easy way of Deepak Chopra's view of the 7 levels of consciousness and how it affects our behaviour. This is essentially a summary of most of the concepts he taught us at the Sunday seminar. It's pretty simple but packs a punch! You can view the spreadsheet here .

Today's post will be something along the lines of an "enlightenment" post. As we all know, many times when we receive messages from the Universe, the meaning of the message doesn't hit home at that certain time but comes and smacks you in the face a bit later (sometimes it's the same day, other times it can be a few good months). This past week (and weekend) was full of "messages hitting home" for me. Months ago (I think it may have been in January or even late last year), I tapped into my Akashic record. For those of you who have been with me since the beginning of this blog, you might recall that two key messages came out of that session (before I freaked out and closed my connection with the records lol) - 1. This time around my life purpose was meant to be in metaphysical healing; and 2. Upon asking for clarity around what the heck metaphysical healing was, I received the answer "quantum physics". Undoubtedly since that time it is extre...

I have an inkling that the insights that I have learned over my weekend with Deepak Chopra will be the predominant subject over next few posts. At the end of the day, I believe it's important to get as much knowledge out there so that you can make your own decisions about what is your truth and what you believe will improve your own life. Today I wanted to share a mindfulness meditation that we performed twice over the weekend. The answers that I received during (and after) the meditation were pretty profound, and to me they cemented the fact that I was on the right path.  So here is Deepak's mindfulness meditation: VIPASANA: Sit with your feet on the ground, back erect, close eyes and for about 5 minutes, observe your breath. As you observe your breath, your mind will get distracted, so when you are aware of that, bring back your awareness to your breath. SELF REFLECTION: Put your awareness in your heart – self reflection. Ask yourself4 questions: Who am I? SI What do...

Over the weekend, I was fortunate enough to go to go to Melbourne to spend a weekend with Deepak Chopra. Now I have to admit that I knew of Deepak Chopra before I went there but I had little knowledge of anything else. Having been to the event, I have to say it was one of the best events of my life. The main theme of the weekend was about how genes are connected to your overall well being. Essentially, Deepak says that the body should be viewed as an "activity" or a verb rather than a "noun", and because of this, it is easy to change the "activity" based on conscious choice. Based on his numerous scientific research, Deepak explains that 95% of genes of a human being can actually be changed or manipulated consciously by the person. 5% of these genes are known as non-penetrant.. which essentially means that you're pretty much pre-disposed to the eventual dis-ease. If you are under the age of 50 when the dis-ease manifests, it's a one to one correl...

This week during class, I began to feel a bit "behind" the other guys in my class when they were covering things like trigger point therapy and active, passive and resisted range of motions. During my studies of Cert IV massage at my other college, I never learnt that type of stuff so when I could see the amount of knowledge that my fellow classmates had in that area, a part of me sunk. However, given the "training" I had been doing through Marisa Peer's course, I realised this habit that I had of comparing myself to others and completely forgetting about the knowledge and skills that I have and that make me unique. For example, no one in my class knows craniosacral therapy, none of them have done myofascial release and none of them can perform the type of energy healing that I can do currently. As soon as I started thinking that way, I remembered a lovely SMS from one of my clients this morning that wished me luck with my interview with an online blog as well...

A lot of the conversations that I have had with my friends and my massage clients have been around the concept of angels and spiritual guides. Now, if you were to tell me a year ago that I would be working with angels and spiritual guides, I would have laughed in your face. However, now these "guys" are major factors and my assistants when it comes to healing others - in fact I don't think I'd be able to do much without their guidance! Isn't it funny how much things can change in a short amount of time? So, who are they and can anyone contact them? Let's answer the second one first because that's easy and straight forward. Yes. Yes you can. I'll elaborate on how you can later. As to the answer to first part of the question, it can get a bit complicated. There's different types of spirit guides. Some are the angels, family members (i.e. deceased family member, or someone from your ancestral heritage.. and by this I'm referring to not just yo...

Today I decided to do something that I have not done in months (or maybe even a year) - brave the shopping mall in order to buy a white polo shirt. Suffice to say that I could not find said white polo shirt (which was absolutely ridiculous), but being in that sort of chaotic environment hit me with a few home truths: I hate have an aversion to crowded places. I walked into Zara, it was packed with people buying a crap load of clothes, tried to navigate my way to the back through the throngs of people and ended up giving up and turning around and walking straight out. It actually started to make me feel anxious and a bit sick. The same thing applied with Uniqlo and H&M... although at H&M I ended up making a purchase for a nice warm sports jacket which was actually something I really needed. The "herd" mentality is astonishing. Whether it is in nabbing 10+ items of clothes just because "you can", whether it is lining up in a ridiculously long line for the...
