Easy Grounding Techniques For Empaths, Sensitives And Healers. Why the ability to ground is such an essential skill for empaths, sensitives and healers. Common symptoms and problems of not being grounded.
Exploring natural ways to ground such grounding techniques, grounding essential oils, essences and crystals that can really help us ground into our body
Why Daily Grounding Techniques Can Help Keep You More Healthy
One of the biggest challenges I have had in my life was being fully grounded in my body. Like many highly sensitive empath‘s I faced all sorts of challenges with my sensitivity and over feeling other people’s pain and wounding. As well as being psychically sensitive.
Also I would be unfortunate to suffer from some medical harm and challenges that left my nervous system even more fragile and sensitive leaving me with serious sensory processing issues.
It would take me 3 decades as a healer to recognise more deeply how much grounding is so vital for one’s health and wellness. And how lack of grounding can play such a big role in our ability to become more mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually resilient.
How much the ability to ground is important for us to be able to hold our light and to be able to be receive more abundance in our life.
Common Symptoms Of Being Ungrounded
Being ungrounded can show up in all sorts of ways in how we function from feeling spaced out and disconnected, to over feeling, over sensitive and a whole long list of other strange symptoms and even conditions.
We can also feel out of alignment and spiritually disconnected.
But the sad reality is that most people today are very ungrounded, most people spend so much time in their head,
so entrapped in their trauma, their self-soothing addictions. They are not fully in their body and not able to hold their light, or tap into their sovereign power.
Empowering Benefits Of Being Fully Grounded
As humanity continues to awaken, evolve and grow at a faster pace, it is important for us all to be centred and grounded so we can remain strong, resilient but also help hold peace.
Being fully grounded helps us adapt to change more easily, it helps us be able to hold more light, receive more and in turn able to support more, in a more healthy and balanced way.
Grounding helps us to be a clearer channel for inner guidance and discernment, we just need to see examples of how intuitively disconnected most people have been over the recent years.
To see the need for more grounding and deeper soul connection.
Being The Hero Of Your Own Journey – Soul Empowerment
The most empowering thing we can do in our lifetime is become the hero of our own life.
The more empowered we become in a more soul aligned way, the more we lead by example.
Being The Hero Of Your Own Life
We know its not what happens to us that defines us but how we overcome or face these challenges.
In the hero’s journey the hero goes through a spiritual journey.
Different initiations and life lessons, some we keep repeating until we learn and grow from them.
We all have an opportunity to experience and face these initiations, these lessons;
these gifts show up in our life up everyday, everyday we get to choose the next path.
Too many times it is easy to choose the the easier path,
instead of the courageous one;
the road less travelled that leads us to greater spiritual strength and so many riches.
Leading By Example By Being The Hero
Humanity right now is facing these initiations, these lessons on a hugely massive scale.
But the problem is most of humanity is struggling to be the hero of their own life and lead by example.
They are so confused, distracted and overwhelmed, they cannot see what is the right path or the truth.
That is why its so important for us all to detach from the chaos, the distractions and propaganda, designed to mislead and confuse us.
And do what we can to be quiet and still; connect with our own inner guidance, our own inner compass to access deeper truth.
The Hero Of Our Own Soul
We all have an inner navigation system that can give us truth and strength when learn how to full develop and use it. God has given us so many inner gifts, the gift of spiritual discernment and intuition.
The main problem is we invest so much time and energy in things that are not that important. We are so easily distracted, seduced or hi-jacked by instant gratification or self-soothing. That most people’s discernment is very corroded. Their intuition is something that is extremely undeveloped and not always accurate.
That is why in November I have decided to do a deep dive into getting more Soul Connected and Soul Empowered through meditation and different energetic and spiritual practices.
In my program Unlock Your Soul Power- 4 Steps To Soul Empowerment

The Wounded Healer Journey. The pain, gifts and learning that comes from the wounded healer archetype. How our own deepest conscious and unconscious wounding, birth’s the gift to help heal others. Why the healers’ journey is a lifelong path of self-discovery and self-exploration into our own inner world and spiritual connection as much as the clients or patients we are called to help.
What is The Wounded Healer?
The Wounded Healer is a term that comes from the view that the healers is born from the light that enters the wound, the compassion that comes from one’s own suffering. In turn wanting us to help others because of that wounding.
The Wounded Healer concept originated from Greek Mythology;
When Chiron the Centurion was deeply wounded by Hercules’s deadly poisoned arrows. And although he could not heal himself, he used his deepest core wounding to help save another.
And in relation to the story of Asclepius the god of medicine, a Greek doctor who began a sanctuary to help heal others because of his own wounds.
The Light and Shadow Traits Of The Wounded Healer
The wounded healer is generally more conscious that their desire to help others heal is because of what they personally suffered from. But the reality is every physician, health or wellbeing practitioner, therapist or healer has core wounding.
Every person has wounds that cause them pain, suffering, triggers some sort of emotional reaction. That is why a healer who believes they are healed, have very little awareness and self-awareness.
No matter how healed you think you are. We are all a work in progress, all healers, all humans are wounded at some level.
We all have both light and shadow traits that show up as archetypal patterns in everyday life. That is why the healers’ journey is a never ending path of self-discovery and healing of our shadow wounds.
We all have shadow traits that need to be healed and as healers we need to be more self aware about any internal wounding’s or projections we may put onto our clients. So as not to cause more harm, as they say “heal thyself”.
My Own Wounds On The Wounded Healer Journey
As a wounded healer myself who began my own journey into becoming a healer over 30 years ago after facing all sorts of mental, emotional, physical and spiritual wounding. Especially wounding around medical harm and injury, and further wounding from a broken medical and healthcare system, ill equipped healers and therapists.
My own wounds led me to down a long path, a very road less travelled path. Where I met and worked with so many wounded healers. Many compassionate and self aware healers but equally many healers who lacked compassion, awareness or even just proper training. Who were actually inflicting further wounding and harm to their clients, patients and students.
From a therapist and healer’s perspective this made me question so much around the healers role and standardisation from an ethical perspective. Do healers today get enough training, go through a long enough and deep enough apprenticeship to prevent them from really harming others.
Every week I see so many over generalisations or comment by healers, therapist s or coaches that comes from deep lack of awareness, insight and experience. Ideologies that on so many levels can be deeply damaging to the psyche of the vulnerable and suffering client, the naive student.
Common Traits Of The Wounded Healer
Light Traits Of The Wounded Healer
Here are some gifts of the wounded healer.
Awareness and Self Awareness:
Wounded healers naturally have good self-awareness and awareness of others.This is what makes them natural healers as they are more aware of others needs, challenges and themself. They tend to know themself at a deeper level so are more aware of their own shadow which is extremely important in any sort of healing work.
Compassion and Empathy:
The wounded healer has great compassion for others, some have great empathy, that is why many empaths are natural healers and strong caregivers and nurturers who have to heal their own wounding around boundaries.
Deep Calling Or Purpose:
A deep sense of purpose, they just know in the heart and soul their calling is to help or help heal others.
Hero Traits:
Wounded healers can also have an element of the hero archetype where through courage, tenacity and determination through their own suffering they inspire, empower and motivate others. That is why the wounded healers journey is part of the hero’s journey.
Intuitive And Insightful:
The wounded healer is a natural healer, deeply intuitive and aware of things at a deeper level, they can sense beyond the surface of what is going on at the individual and collective level. That is why many wounded healers become energy healers and spiritual healers.
Helper Since Childhood:
Wounded healers tend to have always been life’s little helpers, starting from childhood.
Self Growth:
Have the ability to look at all pain, suffering and learning as an opportunity to grow and evolve.
Shadow Traits Of The Wounded Healer
Here are some dark traits that can show up in the unhealed wounded healer
End up suffering mental, emotional, physical and even spiritual burnout. Due to lack of healthy boundaries, psychic protection.
Destroyer Traits:
Destroys or disables others through their own wounding, their own pain, or egoic desires. Causing direct nor indirect pain to others or those they work with.
Co-dependency and Enabling:
When one constantly enables or rescues others. Provides strength, support and rescuing to others preventing the other take self-responsibility or co-dependent relationships. Or where therapists encourage clients to come to them for years or months and the client is not making huge progress.
Gaslighting:
Where one gaslights their clients, patients or students reality. This can come from narcissistic wounding, or even to control over power the client or patient such as from very biased, fixed ideology about what is going on with the client.
God or Saviour Tendencies:
Where the physician or healer projects on to the patient or person that they are the one doing the healing, the one saving them. Implying at some level they are their god or saviour.
Martyr Traits:
Will sacrifice their own wellbeing and life for others, for their work.
Illusion And Manipulation:
One of the strong archetypal traits in many healers is the alchemist and magician. The dark magician will often use illusion or trickery to manipulate, control or seduce the client or patient. For example making implications or promises they cannot guarantee, misrepresent information or knowledge for their own gain or from naivety.
Prostitute Traits:
Where one sells their soul, their spiritual integrity and gifts to the highest bidder for material or financial gain. This has become a big problem in world where spirituality and healing vocations has become inverted, over commercialised, seduced by glammer, populism and even celebrity status. Than what is at the heart of the true healers journey.
The Healers Journey
What I came to realise as a wounded healer on my own healing journey, was that as healers we need to constantly evolve and grow in our own healing, consciousness and awareness. What I believed 30 years ago as a healer is very different on what I believe know.
In a polarised world where we have so many light and shadow aspects to us and the collective. It is important to remind ourself that the healers path is painted with pain, gifts, especially of privilege and honour to the people we get to help and support. Because in that process we heal ourselves through the shadow aspects of another.

10 Things That Lower A Healers Energy, Frequency And Vibration. The 10 things healers should avoid, eliminate or reduce in your life and work if you want to be a master healer.
A Healers Role
A healers role is a sacred role, a healers energy is something that should never be taken lightly. If you are an energy healer or spiritual healer it is vital that you are taking care of your own body and life force.
A healers energy needs to be honoured and respected so you can truly fulfill your mission in the healthiest ways for your clients.
Although every type of healing channel and modality is different, any therapist or healer who is working in any shape or form with someone else’s mind, emotions or energy field.
Your vibes, your energy field can have the power to influence and manipulate the person’s energy field.
Especially when the client is on some level energetically vulnerable when they come to you for help or support.
Your clients are coming to you because they feel disempowered in one or more area of their life or wellbeing. So the last thing a client or students needs is a healer who has has mucky energy; especially attachments, entities, who is highly toxic.
Healers Attachments
You maybe surprised how many healers carry attachments and don’t know. It is one of the reason I know so many very experienced healers treat other healers who have attachments daily. And why they no longer practice certain types of healing modalities they used to use before.
It is one of the reasons I am very specific about who I get healing from and what types of healing people do on me. Why I no longer get certain types of healing, because the reality is some types of channeling, healing and healers are more open to this problem.
And most healers are not master healers, they are often taught their type of healing modality is a completely pure channel or that their tools will eliminate or clear any negative or low form of energy.
When the reality is most true master healers see daily the evidence of why this is not true.
Healing Without Permission Or Request
My opinions on many healing modalities has changed dramatically over the years. And is one of the reasons why I find it quite invasive when people assume that its okay to send anyone healing without permission or request.
As someone who has studied healing and spirituality for over 30 years, I do think this is bad spiritual practice for so many reasons. It actually goes against lots of natural spiritual laws especially modalities that use certain types of symbols or spiritual beliefs than just sending someone love or positive intention.
This can be an unconscious trait of the wounded healer, who believes they are here to heal everyone or save everyone,
Spiritual Attacks And Healers Energy
Today more than ever healers are spiritually exposed to all sorts of spiritual attacks, psychic attacks, curses and spells. We are living in a time of spiritual war where it is vital for healers to protect their energy, purify and increase their vibration.
10 Things That Can Lower A Healers Energy And Vibration
Alcohol
Alcohol doesn’t just lower your energy, trigger self-destructive patterns and behaviours. But alcohol also makes you more vulnerable to nefarious energetic attachments and entities. It is one of the reasons why those with alcohol addictions and other drug addictions can end up in a very dark place. Can spiral onto a dark path. And it is one of the reasons why all masters healers and spiritual teachers avoid alcohol.
Caffeine
Caffeine blocks the third eye, it is extremely stimulating on the central nervous system, which can keep many people in a low-level fight or flight state. One of the reasons highly sensitive people and highly sensitive empaths should avoid or reduce their caffeine intake. Just be careful of many decaffeinated versions that have been washed in highly toxic substances.
Processed Foods
Sadly so many processed foods are not just slightly processed but more and more are full of manmade substitutes or seriously genetically modified plants or substances. They lack any natural life vital force that we tend to get from fresh organic and natural produce. What is even more disturbing, is completely manmade foods like artificial meat which is made from stem cells and other crazy approaches by people trying to play god.
Sugar and Artificial Sweeteners
Processed sugar is widely recognized by many scientists as cancer-causing, sugar feeds bacteria, mold, and viruses and causes all sorts of inflammatory responses to the immune system, our organs, and energy field.
Sugar is one of the lowest vibrational foods that causes anxiety, depression, diabetes and moodiness.You just need to try out some basic muscle techniques to see how much it weakens our body and the aura. And how it can contribute to brain fog, poor intuition and lower the healers energy and protection.
Electro Magnetic Frequencies
EMFs are widely known to impact our energetic field even though we have seen a dramatic increase in the roll-out of things like 5G in every place imagine and the general increasing in technology we have around us at home and in work. A healers energy should protected from EMF’s as much as possible. There is so many wearable EMF protectors and things you can use on your technology and in your home today.
Energy Practices That Don’t Resonate
One of the things that we need to practice as a healer is good discernment, removing yourself from any energy practices, teachings or energy modalities that don’t feel aligned with your heart and soul is so important.
This can change as we evolve and grow and things change in the collective. So many healers never questions the tools, techniques or form of channeling they are using.
As a healer of 30 years who has worked with hundreds of healers on a personal level as well as professional, I am far more discerning now to what types of healing practices I align with. And who I allow in my energetic field.
As a highly sensitive intuitive and empath I am very aware how spiritually and psychically unaware most healers are to what they are practising and what is in their energy field.Things that can trigger a lot of anxiety, depression, anger, rage, personality changes and so much more.
Heavy Metals
Heavy metals should not be in our bodies, our organs, or brains. “Heavy metals attach to your cells and prevent them from performing their functions, which causes symptoms that could be life threatening without treatment.” Cleveland Clinic.
Heavy metals are in our food, water, cosmetics and in medical procedures such as injections, amalgam fillings and sometimes put in the body for joint and bone repairs. Most people would be surprised at what heavy metal toxicity can do to our energy field.
As energy healers it is important to do what we can to reduce and eliminate heavy metals from our bodies. Such as filtrating the water we drink, avoiding highly toxic medical procedures and treatments when possible.
Synthetic and Toxic Fabrics
Toxic and synthetic fabrics like rayon, polyester, acrylic, or nylon are extremely low vibration. While fabrics like linen, wool, and organic cotton are of a high vibration, grounding and great at increasing the light and a healers energy.
As a highly sensitive child I could never tolerate manmade fabrics. I have always been naturally attracted to organic cashmere, organic cotton, linen and wool even silk. But would be energetically repelled by toxic and synthetic fabrics.
Toxic Skincare and Toxic Cosmetics
Avoid cosmetics and skincare products that are made from highly toxic and manmade ingredients. Skincare not made from natural ingredients are not just toxic for the skin but for the body and our mood.
It’s interesting how as a society we can get so focused on the aesthetics of things but have not awareness or interest in how toxic the clothes or cosmetics we are wearing every day have on our body and skin.
Or what they are using as a deodorant and apply to their lymphatic glands. One ingredient that I realised many years ago can seriously lower your energy was isopropyl alcohol which is many cosmetics and nail products. This is a product I was asked to carry to college when I was studying music, it was used to clean some of the recording equipment. Even though I didn’t know at the time it was highly toxic although many times I felt really unwell when I was in the studios.
Unhealthy Boundaries and Lack Of Energy Protection
Lack of boundaries and lack of energy protection opens us up to all sorts of energy, emotions, thoughts, beliefs, attachments. Many of us who are empaths have to really work at setting healthier boundaries with the world around us. And its doing it in a way that is not coming from a fearful space but a healthy space.
A Healers Energy Needs To Be Protected And Honoured
A healers energy has to be honoured and protected on a daily basis. A healers energy needs to be crystal clear.
A lot of healers and lightworkers become like empaths or sensitives, they become more finely tuned to their clients energy and they world around them. Especially spiritual healers and energy healers who work with hundreds or thousands of clients.
When we don’t protect our energy and life force throughout the day, we open the door and allow in lower vibrational energies, toxins and imprints into your field. Or becomes more easily energetically hi-jacked, conditioned or programmed by 3d illusions and deceptions.
Like brushing your teeth, a healer needs to learn how to deep clean their energy field throughout their day. And like a dentist with more microscopic or refined tools. The more you raise your consciousness levels the more finely tuned your awareness becomes and you realise how dirty your energy really is.

Common Signs Of Compassion Fatigue And Empathy Burnout
5 Signs Of Compassion Fatigue and Emotional Burn-Out. What does compassion fatigue look like and what can you do to reduce the risk of this type of emotional exhaustion, anxiety and stress with Empath and Stress Management Expert; Eileen Burns.
What is Compassion?
Compassion is an awareness and sensitivity to other people’s suffering. Which invokes concern and sympathy, it involves altruism and a wanting to take action to reduce the person’s pain. Now it is easy to get confused with compassion and empathy. Examples of compassion is offering to help out a friend, neighbour with something they find difficult. Being able to listen to someones recent challenges with patience and care.
What is Empathy?
Empathy is the ability to put yourself in someone’s position and feel what someone else is feeling. Someone who is an empath will often actually feels the pain of others for example the physical, mental, emotional pain of others or the energy of a place. Examples of empathy being able to sense other people’s emotions and feelings, feel or see behind a mask. Absorbing other people’s energies, dramas, excitement.
What is Compassion Fatigue and Empathy Fatigue?
Compassion Fatigue
Compassion Fatigue is a form of burn-out a reduction in compassion and empathy that leads to a variety of symptoms that can make you feel frustrated, exhausted, detached, in a state of apathy.
It is caused by both secondary traumatic stress (common in empathy fatigue) which I talk about below and burnout. Often seen in prolonged long periods of over empathy and caregiving, periods of extreme trauma, stress or chronic stress.
Empathy Fatigue
Empathy fatigue is extremely common in empaths as empathy can be extremely overwhelming and very stimulating on the nervous system. It can involve a lot of over-identification of other people’s pain especially when the empath lacks healthy boundaries.
This happens when one’s own wounds are re-triggered by the pain or challenges of others, but feel unable, too detached or too overwhelmed to give the support.
Empathy Fatigue was coined by Professor Mark Stebnicki who documented the observations of “secondary traumatic stress” in what he classed as “high-touch therapists” for example counsellors, psychotherapists etc who in their work needed to have a strong emotional connection to their patients, therapists. They were presenting the same symptoms of their patients or clients anxiety and stress.
Are You At Risk Of Compassion Fatigue Or Empathy Burnout?
Empaths, healers, therapists, caregivers, coaches and counsellors are at a high-risk of compassion fatigue and empathy fatigue. Especially those that suffer or become distracted by other people’s pain.
5 Common Signs Of Compassion Fatigue and Empathy Fatigue
Below are common signs in empathy fatigue and compassion fatigue where there is an overlap in triggers and causes.
Apathy
Feelings of Apathy is a very common sign of compassion fatigue, feel as if you don’t care about anything anymore. Lack of concern, interest enthusiasm and motivation.
Anger and Irritability
Feeling anxious, angry and irritable are common compassion fatigue symptoms. It comes from being overwhelmed and having less tolerance.
Burnout And Exhaustion
A general feeling of burnout and overwhelming exhaustion that leaves you feeling unable to have the mental, emotional or physical resources to deal with or support someone else who is suffering.
Detached
Feeling very detached from your own emotions and emotions, suffering of others is a common example of compassion fatigue in healthcare and hospitals. This is very common in medical professionals, nurses, doctors, those who deal with traumatic experiences, all sorts of mental, emotional pain and suffering on a daily basis.
Emotional and Traumatic Recollections
Emotional and Traumatic Recollections where the client, patient or situation triggers certain memories associated with another client, patient or their own personal trauma. Especially those that are related to particularly traumatic, demanding or challenging situations.
Healing And Manging Compassion Fatigue and Empathy Fatigue
Healthy Boundaries
Healthy boundaries is so important to reduce both compassion fatigue and empathy fatigue especially in empaths who tend to struggle with boundaries and non-identification. As an unruly empath for most of my life, this has been something I have had to work on deeply.
Many empaths have to deeply understand the importance of boundaries, challenge their belief systems and habits around feeling responsible for other people’s pain and suffering. Unfortunately empaths tend to be more prone to attract those who want to stay in victimhood, narcissistic traits and behaviour patterns.
Healthy Lifestyle
A healthy lifestyle is an important aspects of preventing any sorts of mental, emotional fatigue and burnout. What we eat, what we consume mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually can fuel us, deplete or intoxicate us. That is why it is important to do what you can to consume a high vibrational life.
Sadly many medical professionals are some of the most unhealthiest eaters, have alcohol or other addictions. Suffer insomnia especially understandably those on unhealthy shift patterns. All of these things will lead to depletion and physical burnout which in turn reflects the amount of emotional and mental resources you have to support others.
Good Self Awareness
Good self awareness is key in helping us become aware of our needs, our own triggers, light and shadow traits. Our unconscious habits and beliefs that are keeping us stick. Many in the healing and therapy professionals are wounded healers, choosing careers in these areas because of their own past or present wounding.
This can provide greater compassion for others but can also lead to a variety of challenges if the inner child trauma or inner child wounding is not healed. Especially when there is saviour, healer or rescuer traits which can create all forms of co-dependency issues in the patients and clients.
Self Care and Self Compassion
Self Care and Self Compassion is a vital component to the prevention and reduction of compassion fatigue and empath burnout. This is so important in caregivers and empaths who are naturally altruistic and motivated in life by service to others. And who struggle to identify their own needs, wants often due to a childhood knee deep in supporting, helping, rescuing others. Especially self care that helps us keep an open and expansive heart.
Trauma Support
Support with your own personal trauma is so important, we all carry trauma from our childhood and adulthood that shapes our beliefs, behaviours and reactions on a daily basis. Trauma comes in all sorts of shapes and sizes, it impacts us all in different ways in our life, relationships, health and wellbeing.
As someone who has tried out, studied and practices wide range of therapeutic approaches to help clients with trauma for over 20 years. I would always support a holistic approach, a multi-faceted approach for the best results. I personally use a combination of therapeutic archetypal and inner child coaching, healing and therapy with my own clients.
Get More Grounded
A big cause of compassion fatigue and empathy fatigue in empaths, sensitives, healers, in-fact many people today involves an element of being ungrounded. When we are so much in our head, so stimulated and disconnected from our true nature and mother nature, we get ungrounded and eventually burnt-out. Check out my Grounding Toolkit For Empaths and Healers or the Empaths Toolkit below which contains the grounding tools.
How To Receive Support From The Universe. The ability to ask and receive from god and the universe, the ability to trust that support from the universe will come.
Our Deepest Struggles With Receiving From The Universe
Why do so many of us struggle to ask or receive support from the universe?
Why do so many lightworkers give so generously but have such wounds in the ability to receive from others?
Like many lightworkers I spent most of my life struggling to receive. Despite highly investing in my own wellbeing, my own healing, investing in all sorts of training and spiritual work. Way more generous, qualified and experienced than most of my fellow therapists and healer I found it so difficult to charge my worth.
When it came to receiving and asking for what I genuinely deserved in my life I fell very short.
Like so many healers and therapists I would give so much to my clients but so little myself.
I had so much wounding around receiving it showed up in so many areas of my life.
An inability to receive the right sort of support from the universe can have so many layers to it. For me a lot of the unhealthy patterns feeding it, were layered amidst deepest seated strong rescuer, helper and caregiver traits formed from a young age.
Unconscious Programming That Rejects Support From The Universe
Unconscious Programming From Trauma
Early childhood conditioning and trauma from our surroundings; parents, culture and religion plays a huge part in unconscious programming.
Programming that at a deep level harms and rejects our divine rights to support from the universe.
It is one of the reason why so many highly sensitive empaths lacking healthy boundaries are often the worst receivers. They are often so energetically entangled in other people’s emotional needs, desires and energetic attachments. They are disconnected from their own needs and desires.
This is also a big reason so many therapists and healers today are carrying around all sorts of negative energetic attachments they don’t even realise they have.
Unconscious programming plays a paramount part on most people’s ability to receive.
It also plays a big part in someone’s ability to feel spiritually connected with the universe and god. In many ways it all comes back to trust and worthiness.
When we don’t trust in the universe or ourselves there is massive spiritual disconnection.
It is why I personally believe poor soul power and poor soul connection is one of the biggest causes of so much unhappiness and poor discernment in the world and in the spiritual sector.
Disconnection in god and the universe shows up in a lack of intuition and lack of faith. An ability to be able to truly ask and receive more support from the universe in our daily life.
We just need to look at the last few years to see evidence in the masses of how spiritually disconnected most people are from their own inner guidance and personal sovereignty.
How programmed they are in certain narratives and in media illusion, so easily hijacked because of disconnection.
What Most Spiritual And Law Of Attraction Books Don’t Teach
Despite studying all sorts of spiritual teachings, law of attraction, manifesting and belief work for over 30 years. Like many people I struggled to receive some of the most basic things I deserved to receive in my life.
But I also could see how clearly how so many books out there like The Secret and even the program The Secrets Of The Secret were only scratching the surface and not revealing all.
Leaving out so many important factors and areas that influenced and interfered with peoples abilities to manifest and receive.
Missing out so many basics in relation to soul contracts, ancestral wounding and other psychic and spiritual phenomena that could interfere with one’s ability to receive.
But it wasn’t until 10 years ago after a life threatening experience in an induced coma, did I start to really explore these aspects on a much deeper level.
Why It Took A Near Death Experience To See Things More Clearly
Despite a life time of chronic and rare medical conditions. And more than a few serious medical injuries, so many would say was a life of insane bad luck( that people would joke you need to write a book)
It would take literally a near death experience, a spiritual experience to really wake me up and push me to start looking at my own life and so many other things from a different perspective.
After this life changing experience, nothing would ever be the same. I would experience so many strange, spiritual and psychic experiences that at one point I seriously began to question my reality and everything I ever knew.
But equally the universe started to provide all sorts of people, teaching and insights that I wouldn’t trade for the world. A path of exploration of so many spiritual teachings and in areas of psychic psychology and psychic phenomena that most main spiritual teachers don’t talk about,
Things that that made me realise how much was missing from so much teachings in energy, healing and spirituality that was amiss.
It highlighted even more the bigger problems with fast track training.
The cost of not truly taking the time to find the right teacher, not just the cheapest teacher or quickest certificate
And why the masses so easily gave over their personal sovereignty and autonomy over the last few years.
Knowing We Are More Than Enough
Knowing we are enough and so much more than enough, is a basic fundamental of our ability to receive.
Our ability to access some sense of personal sovereignty is a fundamental aspect of our trust in ourselves and the universe.
A realisation that we are a god spark, a very important part of god’s consciousness is something we need to experience and feel at a soul level not just view from a mental perspective.
It is one of the reasons I am a big fan of teachings that focus on soul work first than just mental and belief work, that can have too much emphasis on the ego and 3d.
Know you are more than enough, knowing you are made in the image of god, you are a gift of god is one of the most basic but powerful knowings we need to integrate and embed into our psyche and as a collective for us to receive the miracles and support from the universe we all need right now.
In our purest essence we are beautiful gifts in the universe, we are more powerful and more deserving than we can imagine.
8 Tips To Receiving Support From The Universe
Connect With Your Spiritual Self;
Like every form of connection, the communication channel has to be clear. One of the things that so many teachings don’t talk about is the importance of building good soul connection. That is why deep soul work, developing a deeper connection with our higher self, god and the universe helps support a clearer channel of receiving.
Practice Daily Meditation;
Daily meditation is an important aspect of building a crystal clear connection with the universe. If you struggle to meditate you haven’t found the right meditation style, meditation teacher or there is something else going on that is creating resistance, stopping you from accessing that deeper stillness.
If you are someone who prefers to always be active; and are more attracted to what is walking or running meditation, inquire what aspect of the self or your reality you maybe trying to walk away or run away from
Ask and Receive;
It is so important that we start asking for support and spiritual guidance in a heart and soul felt way, so many of us forget to ask, our ask from an energetic place of despair, frustration or unworthiness that what we boomerang back is much of the same.
For example I met so many holistic and spiritual business owners who struggle to receive in business, but are actually approaching and treating their business on an energetic perspective like a bargain basement hobby or car boot sale.
The energy from what we ask has to be in energetic alignment with what we want to receive that is why it is important to ask with a grateful and open heart.
Gratitude and An Open Heart:
The ability to be truly grateful for even the smallest things in our life, increases our ability to receive more support from the universe to do even more in life. An open heart helps us gives from a high vibrational energy without ulterior motives. It helps shift us into an energy of there is more than enough for everyone.
Trust In The Universe;
Trust in the universe, trust in god. One of the ways we can reinforce trust in the universe and god is by tapping into and healing our divine inner child, our magical child. The magical inner child in its light form is a pure channel to magic and miracles. The divine child in it’s light form is our purest connection to divinity within ourselves, god and the universe. It helps us co-create with the universe and those we connect with.
Trust In Yourself:
We have to trust in ourselves as much as we trust in the universe and god. We have to learn to cultivate a trust that we can receive and deserve to receive so much more from the word. And to recognise that support from the universe is already happening every single day, the problem is we are often not quiet enough, still enough to notice or listen. Our egoic mind is controlling the show.
Healing Our Inner Child And Archetypal Wounding;
Healing both our inner child wounds and archetypal wounds help us to heal the energetic patterns that are keeping us stuck and in lack of support from the universe. Our main survival shadow archetypes keep us stuck in self sabotaging patterns of disconnection and destruction.
They can also like many of the other shadow archetypal traits keep us plugged into the 3d matrix programming that is very strong at that time. For example in the last few decades the darkest element of the alchemist and magician has been very strong in many areas of the collective.
We just need to look at the amount of illusion in all areas of our lives even the spiritual sector which has become an industry that is increasingly selling a large part of its soul to the highest bidder. Rather than doing what we do always for the purest intention.
Healing your wounding , doing shadow work around unworthiness can help open you to up to receive so much more support from the universe than you ever expected. When we start to heal and allow more light to come in, we open ourselves up to so much more than physical abundance, we access something much more valuable deep spiritual abundance, deep spiritual strength and wisdom.
