As the years passed I used the gift of this ancient healing method to manage a stressful events career along with the many ups and downs that life inevitably delivers.
During my late 30s I experienced a serious spine injury, which lead to a lengthy period in chronic pain and a place on a waitlist for spine surgery.
Whilst I waited for my surgery date, some 12 months away, I dove deeply into researching the mind-body connection and cognitive neuroscience. Then using my connection with Reiki, my understanding of energy healing and the many tools I learned through my research, I began my own self-healing journey.
Then COVID arrived and my surgery was cancelled until further notice. When the surgeons office rang some months later to reschedule, I realised I was mostly pain-free, so I told them I wouldn't need the surgery and asked them to close my file.
It was then that I knew my purpose was to share my experience with others. Not only a story which would yield some hope for those who are struggling, but also support and encourage others to pursue their own self-healing journey, working in conjunction with their medical support.
So, I continued to study and sold my thriving events business to arrive at this point, where I hope, I can share my journey and the tools I have benefitted from, for the benefit of others, so they can take part in their own healing also.
