The Four Pillars of Essential Healing.
Here at Essential Healing, I’ve discovered that there are 4 pillars or foundations that are essential to living the life you came to the planet to live: A great, Conscious, LIFE!!!!
In my work and life experience, I’ve learned, continue to learn and continue to share these pillars of essential well being with my clients.
My work as a hypnotherapist, healer and life coach has provided me with the vantage from which to view the awe-inspiring vistas of personal healing.
Each client has their own adventure on the road to wellness and balance, and it is my privilege to be a supportive partner in that journey.
Life isn’t always easy, but I’ve identified four pillars as foundations to a great life, a life that highlights and empowers all people to live life in alignment with their unique and special purpose, personal clarity and sovereign authority.
Inner Discernment – This refers to the clarity that comes from within – your own personal wisdom and inner guidance, your intuition. When you are aligned and centered, you know what you want out of life. It’s when we introduce doubt to that clear thinking that things get muddled and confused.
Personal Sovereignty – This refers to when you trust and know that the life you are living is free from the outside influence of others.
This does not mean that we cannot have agreements with and commitments to others. It means that you take personal responsibility for every decision you’ve ever made. Period.
When this is done, and you can personally own your decisions, choices and actions, then you are personally sovereign, and that is true FREEDOM!
Aligned Inspiration – You know that feeling of electrified curiosity and joy over what’s next in your life’s adventure?
Or the feeling of total appreciation for the moment you are living?
Perhaps it’s after a great jog in nature, or after talking to a dear friend. That heightened emotional state is your indication that you are in alignment.
It’s from this place of ecstatic joy and excitement that your most inspired ideas, expressions, conversation, creative inventions, love making – you name it – will be generated. It is important to understand this about human nature and incorporate it into your life as frequently as possible. The more you are in a state of aligned inspiration, the better your life will be.
Empowered Action – When you’re familiar with the experience of aligned inspiration, you’ll learn to trust that all action that you take in this state is like an exponential power thruster.
It provides massive leverage to that inspired action, making all other actions limp by comparison. It will make very good sense to you to be in this aligned state when performing any action at all. I dare you to try!
Starting your day out in alignment
Start your day in a way that makes you feel great. I recommend:
- Setting your intention for that day (i.e., have as much fun as possible).
- Write the intention in a journal that you keep by your bed (those who have small children will think this is absurd, LOL).
- Be easy on yourself.
- Explore exercise and meditation practices that feel right for you.
- Before you go to bed write all the things that lined up with your intention (before you collapse into a comatose sleep).
- Allow yourself to feel appreciation for each aligned moment.
- Set intention for the next day and write it in your journal.
- Try it again.

Disentangling from the Illusion
Happy 2015 Everyone!
I’ve been noticing the progress we have been making as a collective. It is powerful. Can you feel it? I’ve been feeling a powerful welling up of energy in my heart, and it feels as if it just might burst open. In fact it periodically does! Kaboom! Yet, I continue to periodically “tend” to the moments where I perceive feelings of being stuck and stressed, off balance.
Here are some helpful techniques for shifting your consciousness away from the old outdated “reality” (what quantum theorist increasingly show is illusory and simply subjective perspective) into in the NOW of the New Year!
In this shifting time of dynamic back and forths in the the power structure of this illusion, it can be a little funky living a life in the typical day to day, given the particular part of the illusion you are “stationed” in. As you may know, in my everyday (ok, lets just call it what it is – illusory reality) I am a mom, wife, hypnotherapist, sister, friend and the list goes on.
My point is not to blast holes in the reality that I have intentionally created. I happen to be quite fond of the hologram that I am participating in. However, my goal is to throw open the cupboard doors on a way of looking at this personal/collective reality to assist with the increase in demand for integration and forward movement in a functional, easy way. A way that serves my/your/our highest purpose.
Looking back on the past year and beyond, you may notice that you and everyone around you has gone through a lot of change. As we move into this new year and more highly vibrating energy of 2015, how do we as awakening beings continue to grow and further refine our mastery in the light arts while continuing our dance in the shifting illusion?
Resistance
The sensation of resistance, or struggle is a perception designated by our conscious minds over the course of our life experience. The raw data that initiated this designation was neither good nor bad when it happened, yet through modeling of behavior from others and our conscious mind, we assigned a way of perceiving this and related experiences. When the sensation of resistance occurs, the conscious mind is chiming a signal. It’s saying “Hello! Change is being requested!” The conscious tends to feel more “at home” with patterned experiences and familiarity. Change takes focus, effort, intention. This shows up in our body language and breathing patterns as stress, tension and aggravation, which can lead to anger, resentment and fear.
In terms of shifting and disentangling, this signal really only means one thing. That attention is needed. It’s like a light going on in your car informing you that your engine needs maintenance. So what does attention to this signal look like? It looks like integration. Take a moment and imagine how the term integration shows up for you. For me, integration looks like the merging of two gently moving streams into one. Integrating aspects of self can seem counter-intuitive from the perspective of the 3rd density story/illusion. Especially when we have developed powerful internal mechanisms to block and make a U-turn away from these moments. When we have these moments of resistance, it is at this precise time that a tremendous opportunity for healing and growth awaits us.
The How?
NUMBER 1
Pause instead of reacting.
Often, our focus on the event that we are experiencing amplifies the intensity with which we are feeling it. Our subconscious mind has also been patterned to respond to stimulus with a reaction. By pausing, and taking our foot off the go pedal, we can create and initiate a disruption from the patterned response, and place the moment in a type of suspended animation and take a step back. I liken this to the moments in the movie The Matrix where everything pauses and you get a 360 degree view of the scene. Do that. By taking a step back you are literally changing your participation in the illusion from a passive to an active participant. Re-programming it to allow for new possibilities.
NUMBER 2
Take a deep breath.
Breathing in at this moment allows for the pause and new perspective to activate. By breathing, allowing the new, more expanded imagery to fill in, you further solidify the expansion.
NUMBER 3
Connect with Intention.
Intentionality draws our thoughts from an unconscious, or subconscious state into the light of our consciousness. The energy of our intention sets the tone for what we desire. Once initiated, this carves out a new if/then pathway in the neurology of the brain as well as the structure of the illusion, immediately impacting and altering how the future unfolds.
NUMBER 4
Gifting the “Allow”
Allowing is the gift of “letting go in action”. When we allow after setting our intention, we “un-press” the pause button and move into a state of unfoldment. This is also the ultimate act of faith in expression. Faith in these moments, along with the notion of “letting go” can seem counter intuitive and down right hard. However, by exercising and strengthening our “muscle memory” in this process we enable ourselves to move through these difficult moments with split second precision, reconnecting us with our inner mastery; the mastery we came to the planet to express.
As we sail into the new year, we reflect upon where we have been and where we are going. We can’t know now how events and happenings will play out, all we know is that they will. By fortifying our skill set for effortless transitioning in thinking and action, we will be prepared and ready for the abundance that awaits us.
Shoot for the Moon!
Some may find it hard to believe that we as human beings have unlimited potential. And what does this really mean anyway? What this means to me as a hypnotherapist, healer and life coach is that we people tend to get stuck focusing on the things we observe every day. This can have negative consequences if we tend to notice things that induce fear, stress, and validations that the world is going to hell in a hand basket!
In the work I do, I see people who are stuck in a feed back loop of negativity. This tends to impact people on all levels: Work, Family, Love and Finances. So how does a person change their life and launch into the stratosphere?
My goal in my work is to let people know that they are more than the sum of their personal narrative; their story. Remember, if you accept that you are what you think, and you’re telling yourself that “I’ll never amount to anything” or ” I am just not happy-go-lucky” then chances are pretty good that you are having difficulty achieving your goals successfully, or that you tend to be a little on the gloomy side. You are the creator of that reality! The good news is, if you’ve found yourself in my office, or reading this blog, there is a pretty good chance that you might be (at least slightly) open to a new narrative. A story that is more appropriate for your new, more optimistic personal narrative. One that might even include being open to a nice helping of smiles and happiness! I mean, shoot for the moon!
There is no limit to the fun and success we can get out of life when we learn how to become empowered in our thoughts.
10 Steps to Nimbly Releasing Old Wounds.
We all have latent parts of our personality that reflect the wounds we carry inside. Sometimes we’re aware of the wounds, sometimes we are made aware of them when we behave differently that we intend.
Wounds can come from difficult experiences in this life; they can be inherited and carried ancestrally through the physical, mental and emotional bodies as energetic artifacts of our lineage; they can also come from past life injuries carried as wounds on a soul level.
These wounds are not meant to further injure or to create suffering for past misdeeds, they are instead a flag along the path of a lifetime that offer healing opportunities in the current life. Like any opportunity, it can be taken or passed up.
You are not bad if you have these old negative patterns that show up in your life. It’s perfectly natural to all human beings, because on a soul level, we’re coming to this planet to have the experience of being human; to expand our understanding of living life through the vehicle of the physical body. Growing our collective understanding, creates expansion and growth.
Lately, the experience of surfacing or re-surfacing wounds has forced us all to look at our own stuff. It’s right in our faces and difficult to ignore in the way that may have been easier in the past. This is a healing opportunity. You can take it, or walk the other way. You can face it head on, or gradually. Sometimes the intensity with which these old wounds are showing up are intense and life changing. They can throw off our equilibrium and cast us into a place of fright or flight.
When we have new or old traumas that knock us off balance, it’s important to change tactics from our typical hustle and bustle. Routines that uplift you are important, and in the midst of a wound surge, choosing a strategy that allows you come into full acknowledgement and awareness of the event will be your best course of action. In other words, become nimble, flexible and able to pivot quickly.
When facing a shocking or life threatening experience there are those of us that freeze in a state of panic, shock and disbelief, and then there are the ones that just go into survival auto pilot and start thinking on their feet. I remember once reading that the greatest predictor of surviving a disaster is the ability to accept that something has happened, and start making the choices that will save your life.
We humans have a long history of mind blowing resilience and adaptability. What makes resilience possible is being nimble in the mind. Cultivating the ability to think on our feet is an innate gift and powerful soul evolving tool. Like building strength in the body, we can increase our ability to strengthen our internal resilience and ability to pivot and adapt.
Transpersonal hypnotherapy is in essence resilience training for the mind. There are a number of other positive benefits such as increasing: self sovereignty, better boundaries with the physical or non-physical realms, better intuition, inner balance, and mind body spirit wellness to name a few.
The bubbling up of old wounds feels crappy to everyone. No one is exempt. It feels so bad because the toxicity that’s rising up in us is something that was below the surface of awareness, and is now present as negative sensations in the felt experience. This negatively felt experience is your souls signal to pay attention to what is coming up. It’s our inner beings way to shake what’s ready to be released to the surface of the physical, mental, emotional and/or spiritual bodies, wave that flag to our conscious awareness to notice it, once done, a healing opportunity presents itself.
You can choose to take that healing journey, or try to bypass it in some way. Many of you may have already figured out that bypassing is not the same as going through the journey. The best thing to do is to go through it with the understanding that healing and freedom from that is gained by going through, not around. However, the choice is yours. As an infinite soul being, the rate at which you go through your old wounds will be unique to you.
Because this wound detox is a natural part of humans’ evolving consciousness, you can trust that evolution is happening. It’s simply a matter of deciding whether or not you want to go fast, medium or slow. You get to go through it at your pace. You need not to judge or compare your rate of evolution with others. To compare your rate of growth would be like focusing on one data point in an infinite number of datapoint of your souls experience missing the overall bigger picture. Like, missing the forest for the trees.
Your soul wants and supports your consciousness’s evolution. It also knows that it IS happening. It helps to trust in your always connected divine self and support. Your soul has all the info it needs to support you, and when you open to consult with your soul wisdom, you will be guided in ways that improve your life. You are not here living as a human to ‘go it alone’. Nope. You’ve got teams and legions of non-physical support here. The divine realm celebrates and honors the deep sacrifices and challenges required of you in this physical adventure. Your consciousness and a nimble mind are fast ways to access that support. We can forget that on a human level since life here on Earth can be a bit, well, messy. One of my purposes is to be a steadfast advocate
for us to remember that fact.
What I love about becoming more mind nimble is it’s fast, doesn’t require a massive lifestyle change. All that’s needed is a willingness to address wounds as they come up and move through them.
An incentive to do this is you’ll move through the quagmires of life more quickly while strengthening your level of resilience in life.
Here is a 10 step process for moving more nimbly through the emergence of an old wound.
- Acknowledge that you are having this sensation, feeling or experience, and become present and observe what you notice while breathing.
- Stay with it. This is when you’ll notice the urge to check-out, and dissociate from the discomfort of being present with this experience. Decide to trust that you have the courage to get through this temporary experience.
- Return your awareness to the sensation in the body that corresponds with the wound. It might feel like pain, tension, tightness, perhaps heaviness. Notice where in your body the sensation is.
- Let you imagination create a shape and color for this sensation in as if you could telepathically communicate with it.
- Do your best to be in the experience as it’s unfolding.
- Allow yourself to communicate telepathically with the wound. Ask the sensation, “What does it need at this moment?”
- Open to receive the answer telepathically. It can be an image, sensation, download of understanding, healing light, sound.
- Observe the healing process taking place. Stay present with what you’re noticing.
- Stay with it until it ‘feels” complete.
- Repeat as needed.
Releasing our wounding comes in layers. It is important to be patient and kind with yourself as the human collective traverses the unfolding of this wild and truly awesome journey of life as human beings on glorious planet.
Affirmation: I am open to love, to growth and to the light of my soul.
