The Shift

I continued to connect with crystals. I believed that they were helping me through the difficult period in my life.

An opportunity opened up and I enrolled on a crystal energy therapy course. I wanted to learn more about crystals and energy. I knew far more than I thought when I started my training. It felt so natural and familiar. I found out what was going on with my own energy and I was getting so much joy from it.

I opened up to spirituality more and realised that I was already quite far down the path and now everything was starting to make sense.

I knew something had to change. The decision to leave my 12-year plus teaching career was up in the air. It was so difficult. I was afraid of the judgement.

Then I went to a cacao ceremony on my own. I knew the answers I needed were hiding within but I couldn’t retrieve them. I found solace in cacao and I was able to get the validation I needed from myself as I could journey deeper into my heart energy. I was opening up to my own inner guidance.

It took me a long time to come to terms with my decision. I made the choice to leave my career and embark on a new journey to find peace and happiness in a new phase of my life that would better serve myself and my husband.

I wanted to feel happier and I welcomed back the things that brought me joy and calmed my nervous system: being outside, travelling, new adventures, gratitude practice, crystals, essential oils, baths, yoga, music and gigs, dancing and laughing.

When it was time to say goodbye, it was the hardest thing to do. I sobbed. I realised that I had so many highs and lows there. It was time to grieve again. For the place, the friends, the children, the families, the loss and finally for myself.

I took time to grieve and heal. I had to be very gentle with myself when wading through a lot of emotions and old patterns and beliefs.

I tried different energy healing sessions and learnt about so many spiritual practices and modalities.

Soon after, I finished my crystal energy therapy course. I felt happier. I was looking forward to what was next.

I thank everyone who showed me love, support and guidance during my tough times.

With love
