After suffering from anxiety from a corporate layoff in 2016, I took a year long career break. Traveling through Southeast Asia taught me new cultures, food, different religions, and different outlooks and ideas from people I met locally and from all over the world. Next, I found gratitude and joy of being in service as I spent several months as a mentor to small businesses in Rwanda in East Africa. My beliefs and attitude changed even further. My life would never be the same.
Although I came back to the US refreshed and happy to see friends and family, it was tough to return to a “normal” corporate job. The stress came back quickly as I started a new job in a new city. Again stress and anxiety from work manifested into physical symptoms. I returned to mindfulness and holistic practices to help manage the anxiety, but it wasn’t until I signed up for my first sound bath that it felt like concrete had been lifted off my shoulders! I started signing up for virtual sessions several times a month and felt noticeably lighter and less anxious.
I finally felt called to become certified in reiki and sound healing, in order to help others and share the joy and release that I found. And what a transformation! I never could have imagined the self-growth, the shift in perspective and emotions, and absence of pain in my body as a result of this work.
I realize growth and healing is an ongoing process and I commit to daily breathwork, kundalini yoga, and mindfulness practices to keep healing, evolving, and learning. I love to help my clients transform from feeling stressed, anxious, and lost to find healing strength and purpose from within using the power of sound and energy.
