The Power of Forgiveness

Lately, I’ve been reflecting deeply on the concept of forgiveness. I want to develop my psychic abilities and explore the metaphysical world, but I realize that holding onto old pain, anger, and resentment is blocking my spiritual growth. People have hurt me in ways that are difficult to forgive—from abuse and violence to lies, betrayal, and damage to my reputation and business. The weight of these past wounds has kept me tethered to negativity for too long.

Today, a realization struck me: I don’t have to reconcile with these people or allow them back into my life. I don’t have to like them, and they don’t even need to know that I’ve forgiven them. Forgiveness isn’t about them—it’s about me. It’s about releasing the negative energy that lingers, freeing my heart and mind so I can evolve and step into my highest self.

What if reincarnation is real? What if I came back to this life to learn a specific lesson—and that lesson is forgiveness? It’s a daunting thought, considering the depth of pain I’ve experienced. But if I am truly meant to ascend spiritually, I must embrace this challenge.

Even the teachings of God remind us to love our enemies. I am working on sending love and light to those who, in my mind, don’t deserve my prayers. I’ve long believed they should face the karma they have coming, but I’m realizing that thoughts carry energy—energy that lingers, grows, and shapes my reality. If I focus on retribution, I only invite that energy into my own life. I don’t want to be trapped in that cycle anymore.

So, I choose to forgive. I choose to send love and light. I choose to release the pain, not for their sake, but for mine. This shift in perspective—this paradigm shift—is what will propel me to the next level of my spiritual journey. It’s time to move forward, to embrace peace, and to step into a higher dimension of my existence.

I am also currently taking a course in forgiveness and will soon be a certified Forgiveness Coach. If you are struggling with letting go and finding peace, I am here to help.

Staying Present in Meditation: Tips to Calm the Mind and Refocus

“When the Mind Wanders: Gentle Ways to Return to Stillness” Meditation isn’t about having a blank mind—it’s about learning how to come back. It’s completely normal to drift into thought during meditation, especially when you're working with visualization. One moment, you’re feeling the beautiful flow of light moving through your body… the next, you’re thinking about your to-do list or what’s for dinner. That’s not failure. That’s the nature of the mind. The real power comes from noticing when you've wandered—and gently returning, again and again. Here are some simple and compassionate ways to quiet the mind and guide yourself back into your meditation practice when distractions arise. 1. Acknowledge and Return (Without Judgment) Don’t fight the thought—just notice it. “There’s a thought.” Redirect your focus with gentleness. This is how you build mental strength. 2. Anchor Yourself to Sensations Tune into physical cues like warmth, tingling, or pressure in ...

Visualization Tips for Meditating with Light

Visualization Tips for Meditating with Light 1. Start with Sensations, Not Just Images Warmth: Instead of seeing light, imagine the feeling of a warm glow entering your crown and flowing down through your limbs. Tingling: Visualize a subtle tingling sensation accompanying the light—it makes it feel more real. Gentle Pressure: Imagine a light current pressing gently as it moves through your body. 2. Break It Down into Smaller Steps Single Point Focus: Begin with a small point of light at your crown chakra. Grow It Gradually: Let it expand into a small ball, then slowly guide it through your body. Limb by Limb: If the whole-body visualization feels too much, take it one limb at a time. 3. Get Creative with Your Imagination Color: Choose a color that feels calming or powerful for you. Texture: Imagine the light is silky, soft, or liquid—whatever feels healing. Sound: Add a soothing hum, chime, or frequency to make it more immersive....

Meditation Tips for Beginners (or Anyone Struggling with Focus)

🌿 Your Healing Journey Starts Within 🌿 I recently started meditating—and let me tell you, it’s been life-changing. What I’ve come to realize is this: everything you need is already within you . Your thoughts, your beliefs, your energy—they all shape your reality. And the best part? You are in control. You can shift your perception. You can rewrite old stories. You can change your beliefs and your future. You can even transform your relationship with your past—not by changing what happened, but by changing the meaning it holds through the power of your mind. This journey started for me as a way to heal from the trauma and PTSD I experienced after my stroke. I was focused on rebuilding my strength, regaining my stamina, and taking care of my body and home. But the deeper work—the inner healing—has come through meditation and energy work. I dove into courses on energy healing, mindset, and how our thoughts quite literally shape matter. It’s wild… your thoughts create ene...

Unlocking the Flow: A Beginner’s Guide to Energy Healing and Manifestation

Unlocking the Flow: A Beginner’s Guide to Energy Healing and Manifestation When I first set out to understand how energy works, I had no idea I was embarking on a transformative journey. From exploring quantum energy healing to delving into Reiki practices, I discovered that energy isn't just a concept—it's the very essence of our thoughts, emotions, and physical existence. I learned that thoughts are energy, and when focused upon, they can manifest into tangible reality—a principle often referred to as the Law of Attraction. This realization was both mind-blowing and exhilarating, opening doors to a deeper understanding of how we can consciously shape our lives. Understanding Energy Healing: Energy healing is based on the belief that a vital energy flows through the body, and disruptions or imbalances in this flow can contribute to physical, emotional, and mental health issues. An energy healer works with the human energy field (also known as the aura or biofield) t...
