As I listened to her sobbing and telling me about her birth story, I realized that my intention had been met, even before the meditation started. There was still a part of me that was trying to show up like someone else. There was a part of me that didn’t feel good enough in the unique  way that I showed up as a healer. I have a different approach. That approach is divinely right from me because it is what naturally comes out of me, yet I was trying to shift or soften the way I showed up.

With each piece of wood that I added to the casket I thought about my ego and how it had gotten to what it is today. This came from a place of honesty and compassion. I wasn’t being judgemental about my ego, I was simply being real about it. With a lot of intention, the casket was made with the pieces of my ego

I will forever encourage people to express themselves openly and freely. No emotion is bad. No emotion is wrong.

I rubbed my eyes and took a deep breath in, meeting my day from a grounded place. I had been awake for a better part of an hour and had been present with my thoughts and emotions before I got out of bed.

What you don’t always see is all of the behind the scenes work that happens. He spends every night immersed in spirit communication with me. He spends countless hours holding my ground while I disconnect from my body and work with the universe.

“This is energy” I said with a level of confidence and a slight question mark in my voice.

“Yes” he responded from a grounded place.

“I know.” I said back, mostly talking to myself.
