Why Your Next Expansion Might Feel Like Falling Apart

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

There’s a moment I’ve watched play out in nearly every serious student’s journey. A season where things begin to unravel. Not on the surface, but beneath it. It can be subtle or sudden. It often arrives at the very point when your spiritual work seems to be going “well.”

You’ve been meditating. Practicing. Healing. You’ve let go of the past. You’ve forgiven who you needed to forgive. Life should feel lighter. And yet, you find yourself in unfamiliar territory. Things that once gave you clarity no longer land. Your practices feel disconnected. Old emotions resurface in waves. There’s restlessness, disorientation, or a sense that you’ve outgrown something you can’t name.

This is the part no one warns you about. The part where expansion feels less like ascending into light… and more like a system malfunction.

Let me tell you something most spiritual circles avoid: real transformation doesn’t always feel graceful. It’s not clean. It doesn’t always feel loving or “high-vibration.” And it rarely arrives on a schedule that makes sense to your mind.

Sometimes, expansion looks exactly like unraveling.

Growth Rarely Feels Graceful

When you begin to stretch into the next version of yourself… the one who can hold more light, lead with more clarity, and serve from alignment rather than wounding… your energetic structure has to adjust. That means old scaffolding must come down. Belief systems you’ve built your identity around begin to crack. Relationships that were once grounding start to drift. Emotional habits that used to regulate you stop working altogether.

It doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re being asked to hold more signal.

That phrase — holding more signal — is something I return to often in LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV. Because that’s what this path ultimately demands. Not just clearing, but carrying. Not just healing, but becoming a vessel for something greater than your personal story.

And that doesn’t happen without friction. In fact, the friction is the gateway.

You’re Not Failing. You’re Reconfiguring.

Years ago, I had my own unraveling. It arrived without warning. Everything I had counted on for inner peace suddenly stopped working. My body went haywire. My sleep vanished. My intuition (normally sharp) felt cloudy and unreliable. And my connection to the work? Gone, or so it seemed.

I questioned everything. I wanted to retreat. But something deeper wouldn’t let me.

That period turned out to be one of the most sacred seasons of my spiritual development. Not because it felt good, but because it stripped away what no longer served the next iteration of who I was becoming. What I thought was collapse was actually a reassembly.

The nervous system has to unlearn survival before it can stabilize in service. The personality must release its grip before the soul can take the lead.

This is what expansion actually looks like.

This Is Why We Work Inside Containers

Trying to walk through this process alone can feel brutal. The mind starts looking for escape hatches. The ego offers a dozen exit routes. Maybe I need a break. Maybe this isn’t working. Maybe I need something new. The temptation to turn away is strong. Not because you’re failing, but because the transformation isn’t loud. It’s subtle. Internal. Destabilizing in all the right ways.

That’s why we hold containers like LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV.

Because when your system starts to reconfigure, you need structure. You need guidance. You need someone who can say, “This is not the end. It’s a threshold.” You need a field that can stabilize what’s being pulled apart and offer context for what’s coming next.

LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV isn’t just about learning advanced techniques or earning certification. Those are outcomes. The deeper purpose is this: to hold you while your system expands. To help you integrate the light that’s trying to move through you, so you don’t burn out, break down, or retreat back into patterns that once felt safe.

Inside the container, we normalize what others mistake for regression. We work directly with what’s arising, rather than trying to manage it away. And over time, you begin to trust what once felt like chaos. Because it’s not chaos. It’s realignment.

This Stage Is Sacred

You may feel like your inner compass is glitching. You may feel like everything is coming undone just when you thought you were finally getting somewhere.

But here’s the truth: you are.

You are being reshaped for the next level of service. That reshaping process will never feel like mastery. It will feel like being emptied out. Not to be erased, but to be repurposed. So something higher can move through you with more precision and less interference.

If you’re feeling that now…if your routines aren’t working, your old tools feel flat, or your system feels cracked open…don’t run from it. Pay attention. Stay in the room. And don’t go it alone.

We’ll be working with this exact threshold in Santa Barbara this November. It’s one of the most important energetic transitions we’ll address all year. If this post speaks to what’s happening in your system right now… you may already be inside that process.

That’s the moment when LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV becomes more than a program. It becomes a lifeline. A stabilizing force that knows exactly how to hold you… while you remember exactly who you are.

And those in our LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV and V programs are able to attend the workshop in Santa Barbara for free (just book your room).

The doors are now open for you to step onto this sacred stage.

When Healing Isn’t Enough: The Shift from Clearing to Carrying Light

by Energy MedicineEventsFeaturedMaster-in-Training

There comes a moment on the spiritual path where healing… just isn’t enough. Not because the work is done, but because something new is asking to emerge. A deeper responsibility. A quieter, bolder light. That moment? It’s not confusion. It’s calling. This week’s post is for those who feel the stir. For those who know it’s time to move from clearing to carrying.

When Your Field Moves First: How to Know You’re Already Shifting

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

There’s a moment I see in nearly every student before they take the leap.

They sit quietly. Still deciding. Still doubting. The mind is looping. The pros and cons are stacked like files in their chest.

But their field is already moving.

Before the voice says yes. Before the hand clicks enroll. Before they speak desire out loud… the energy has already shifted.

It’s subtle. But undeniable. A lightness around the heart. A low hum behind the ribs. Sometimes it shows up as a restlessness, like something is pushing from underneath the surface.

You might think of it as indecision. But I’ve come to recognize it as something else entirely.

The signal that your system already knows what your mind hasn’t yet caught up to.

That you’re ready.

The Intelligence Beneath Thought

We are taught to rely on logic. To wait until we can articulate every reason. Every risk. Every return.

But healing doesn’t start with thought. Transformation never begins in the mind.

The mind is a late arrival in the process. A translator, not the origin.

The truth begins in the field.

In the quiet space around your body. In the way your breath shortens or deepens. In the flicker of instinct you can’t explain.

I’ve had students tell me they woke up with a phrase echoing in their mind that wouldn’t go away. Others heard a line in a song or felt a heat behind their sternum when they saw something that stirred them.

These aren’t coincidences. They’re energetic messages.

Your field is more attuned than you think. It senses alignment before language can describe it.

When Energy Moves, Something Has Already Begun

If you’ve been feeling unsettled… restless… even irritated by your current path, consider this:

That feeling may not be resistance. It may be readiness.

Readiness often masquerades as discomfort. The kind of internal friction that happens when the energy is already shifting and the mind hasn’t found a story for it yet.

The old container no longer fits, but the new one hasn’t fully formed. That’s what transition feels like.

And your energy always leads the way.

This Is Why So Many Seekers Get Stuck

They wait for perfect clarity. They want the next path spelled out in neat, bullet-pointed steps.

But the next phase of your growth rarely arrives like that.

It arrives as a whisper. A tightness. A surge of emotion you didn’t expect. And when you don’t trust the whisper, the body starts to speak louder. Through symptoms. Discontent. Emotional spirals. Or plain old inertia.

The truth is: By the time you feel the nudge to grow… your energy has already signed up for the next level.

Your mind just needs to catch up.

Are You Ready to Move with It?

If you’ve been feeling that pull lately — that quiet hum that says there’s more for you — this is your invitation to follow it.

You don’t need to wait until it makes perfect sense. You don’t need to justify your desire to evolve. You don’t need to wait until your outer life aligns to your inner ache.

You only need to listen to what your body already knows.

If you’re reading this and something in you is already leaning forward… there’s a reason.

And there’s a container for you.

The Master-in-Training Program

The LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV Master-in-Training program isn’t for the casually curious.

It’s for those whose energy has already begun the shift. For those who know they’re done with the surface-level work. For those who want to be in a living field that reflects back the version of themselves they’re ready to become.

This is a year-long initiation, held inside the most sacred container I offer. You’ll be working closely with me and my LifeForce Energy Healing® team of trained teachers. You’ll be supported by a global group of truth-tellers, energy workers, and awakening leaders. You’ll experience healing, yes. But more than that, you’ll begin to transmit.

Because real transformation isn’t about acquiring information. It’s about shifting your frequency so that your life… your presence… your work… become aligned with the truth of who you actually are.

Level IV is open now. We’re already moving. The field is forming.

If your energy knows it’s time… we’re ready when you are.

Are You Living the Work… or Just Learning It?

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

It’s a pattern I’ve seen in students over and over again. And yes, I’ve even lived it myself.

We begin with hunger. We consume every book, every workshop, every podcast. We underline, highlight, transcribe. We memorize the mantras, recite the steps, learn the systems.

And for a while… it feels like progress.

But something’s missing.

You start to notice that despite all you know, the same emotional patterns return. The same triggers pull you out of your body. Your voice still catches when it needs to speak the truth. Your energy dips in rooms that ask you to rise.

The knowledge is there. But it hasn’t moved into your bones.

This is the difference between learning the work and living it.

And for most of us… this is the real threshold of transformation.

When the Path Becomes a Persona

Sometimes, the deeper we go into spiritual study, the easier it becomes to get lost in the performance of it.

We use perfect language to describe imperfect states. We become adept at recognizing patterns in others. While subtly avoiding our own. We speak of embodiment before we’ve actually let the energy drop below the neck.

And it’s not because we’re faking. It’s because the ego is clever. It will wear the robes of the teacher to avoid being the student.

But your body knows.

Your field knows.

You can’t think your way into transformation. You have to walk it.

The Signs You’re Still Circling

So how do you know when you’re in study mode… but not in embodiment?

Here are a few signs I’ve seen:

  • Your outer language is confident, but your inner world still feels shaky.
  • You feel safe teaching the work… but shaky when it comes to living it in your own relationships, boundaries, or decisions.
  • You feel a quiet sense of fraud (not because you’re dishonest, but because something still hasn’t landed).

None of this is shameful. In fact, it’s sacred.

Because this moment…the one where you see the gap…is the exact moment the real work begins.

From Knowledge to Transmission

There’s a moment in every initiate’s journey where they move from reciting the teachings… to becoming the teaching.

This doesn’t happen in the mind. It happens in the field.

It happens in the way your energy walks into a room. It happens when your presence calms someone without you saying a word. It happens when your intuition speaks before your mind can form a sentence.

This is the shift from study… to transmission.

But you can’t make that leap alone.

Not because you’re unworthy.

But because real embodiment requires containment. It requires rhythm. Community. Accountability. And a safe, sacred space to shed the parts of you that were never true.

That’s what I created LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV for.

What Happens When You Live the Work

Living the work doesn’t mean perfection. It means congruence.

It means your inner world and outer world begin to sync. It means you can hold contradiction with grace. It means you no longer need to speak your truth loudly, because your frequency says it first.

Inside Level IV, we practice that kind of congruence. Every week, you’re inside a living field. Receiving direct guidance. Practicing advanced techniques. Being witnessed. Being challenged. Being held.

You start to catch your energetic blind spots. You stop spiritually bypassing yourself. And one day…maybe quietly, maybe all at once…you realize…

You’re no longer thinking about the work. You’re walking it.

This Isn’t About Mastery. It’s About Devotion.

The spiritual path isn’t a curriculum to master. It’s a way of being. Returning again and again.

Living the work doesn’t mean you’ve arrived. It means you’ve stopped hiding.

And if you’ve felt that you’re circling something deeper, that despite all you’ve learned, something wants to land more fully…this is your invitation.

Not to study more. But to become more.

We’re still welcoming a few more into this year’s circle. And if you’ve felt the pull, I’d love to walk with you.

What Happens When You’re Finally Held

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

For years, I tried to do it alone.

I devoured the books. Sat in silent meditation. Attended the weekend intensives. I said the affirmations, lit the candles, pulled the cards.

And it wasn’t wrong. That solitary path taught me discipline. Listening. The subtle rhythm of my own soul. But there’s a ceiling to how far you can go when you’re the only one holding the container.

Eventually, something breaks down. Or opens up. Or both.

Because there comes a point on the spiritual path when the next layer of healing won’t come through knowledge or solitude. It comes through connection.

It comes when you’re finally held.

Why the Solo Path Can’t Carry You Forever

Spiritual independence is noble…and necessary. But it’s also, at times, a clever disguise for control.

We stay alone because we think we have to be perfect first. Because we’ve been hurt before. Because the idea of being seen in our full truth, in all our mess and medicine, feels too vulnerable.

But healing doesn’t fully land until the nervous system feels safe.

And no matter how devoted you are, your nervous system needs other humans to finish the work. Regulation happens in relationship. It always has.

There’s a reason monasteries, mystery schools, and lineages have always emphasized the group field. Not for conformity. But for containment. The container amplifies your gifts. And it protects your process.

The Energy of Being Witnessed

When you’re held in a sacred container, something shifts.

It’s subtle at first. You speak less from performance and more from presence. You feel less urgency to prove. The pressure to be “on” begins to melt.

You start to be seen not just for what you know, but for who you are becoming.

This kind of witnessing has weight. It accelerates the work. Because when others hold you in your truth, it becomes harder to walk away from it.

In ancient Ireland, there was a word (“anam cara”) meaning soul friend. Not just a companion, but someone who holds your essence in view, even when you forget it yourself.

A group of soul friends held in sacred space? That’s alchemy.

What Community Can Do That Solitude Can’t

Here’s what I’ve seen again and again:

People enter the container wobbly. Second-guessing. Masked in their old coping. Still trying to hold it all alone.

Then, over time…sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly…something unlocks.

They speak from deeper places. They listen differently. Their field begins to harmonize with the others. Their inner channel strengthens. Not because someone told them what to believe, but because the container created the safety for their own knowing to rise.

No single moment causes it. It’s the presence. The rhythm. The quiet accountability of being seen week after week. Especially on the days when you don’t feel shiny or sorted or inspired.

The Sacred Field of the Master-in-Training Program

This is why I created the Master-in-Training program (Level IV).

Not just to teach more techniques. But to create a sacred structure for real transformation to land.
It’s a yearlong journey held in rhythm and reverence. You receive monthly live teachings, advanced practices, private sessions, direct mentorship, and the presence of a circle that begins to feel less like strangers… and more like spiritual kin.

The shifts that happen in this field are not small:

  • People stop outsourcing their power.
  • Their intuition sharpens.
  • Their healing stabilizes.
  • They begin to walk as their energy — not just think about it.
  • And perhaps most importantly… they feel held. Not just in their light, but in their process.

If You’ve Been Trying to Do It Alone

This is your sign to stop.

Not because you’re incapable. But because you’ve reached the edge of what solo work can hold. And because the version of you that’s coming next is too important to emerge unsupported.

There’s no badge of honor for being the lone wolf. Only delay.

We’re not meant to hold our full becoming alone. We’re meant to let it unfold inside a circle that knows how to hold it.

The door to the LifeForce Energy Healing® Mast-in-Training program is now open.

If you’ve been feeling the pull, come walk through.

3 Signs You’re Ready for Initiation (Even If You’re Scared)

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training
I’ve sat with thousands of students over the years. In rooms, on calls, inside sacred containers. And I can tell you something with certainty: the people who are most ready for spiritual initiation are rarely the ones who say, “I’ve got this.” They’re the ones who hesitate. Who tremble. Who say, “I feel called… but I’m afraid.” If that’s you, you’re not behind. You’re not broken. You’re standing at the edge of a threshold. One foot in the life you’ve known. One foot in a life you haven’t fully imagined yet. Initiation doesn’t wait until you’re fearless. It waits until you’re ready to listen. So how do you know if that moment has arrived? Below are three of the most common (and sacred) signs I’ve seen in those who are on the brink.
  1. The Outer Work Isn’t Working Anymore

Maybe you’ve taken the classes. Read the books. Cleaned up your habits. Done the therapy. Maybe you’ve even had beautiful breakthroughs…insight, peace, the occasional spiritual high.

But something feels incomplete.

You know the practices. You can recite the mantras. You may even teach others. But underneath it all… you feel like you’re circling something deeper that hasn’t quite arrived.

This is the moment when the outer scaffolding starts to shake. Not because it was wrong, but because you’ve outgrown it. You’re no longer seeking knowledge. You’re craving transmission.

Initiation doesn’t offer more information. It offers transformation. It’s what happens when you stop doing the work from the outside-in… and begin living it from the inside-out.

If your current tools feel flat, if the path that once energized you now feels quiet… you may not be lost. You may be ready.

  1. You Feel Called to Serve But Don’t Know How Yet

One of the clearest signs that a soul is ripening for initiation is that they begin to sense an inner call to serve.

Not in a flashy, performative way. Not from ego. But from something quieter. Truer.

You start to feel that your healing isn’t just for you. That the pain you’ve walked through… the grief, the unraveling, the resilience… was always leading somewhere.

You feel more attuned to others. More perceptive. You begin to feel energy in new ways. You might even get downloads or intuitive nudges you can’t explain.

But along with this gift often comes confusion. Who am I to lead? What does this mean? Where do I start?

That’s where initiation enters. Not to give you a job. But to root your gifts in clarity and structure so you’re no longer walking around half-open, overexposed, or stuck in the limbo of “almost ready.”

When you’re truly ready to serve, life begins to meet you. Initiation is how you answer the knock.

  1. Fear and Excitement Are Both Present At the Same Time

Here’s the one most people overlook.

You feel a pull. A stirring. A magnetic invitation toward something you can’t explain. And right beside it? Fear.

The fear says:

    • What if I’m not advanced enough?
    • What if I fail?
    • What if I change too much and lose the life I know?

Let me be clear: these are not signs you’re not ready. These are signs you’re touching the edge of your evolution.

When the soul is about to step through a doorway, the ego flares. That’s its job. Its entire purpose is to preserve what has already been.

But your soul came here to grow. And fear is not your enemy. It’s the bell that rings when you’re close to something real.

If you feel that trembling… and the pull doesn’t go away…you’re ready.

What Initiation Really Looks Like

Forget the dramatics. Real initiation doesn’t always look like lightning bolts and mountaintops. More often, it looks like commitment. Listening. Stepping forward even when it’s inconvenient. It looks like sitting in community, being witnessed, being held accountable to your higher self. It looks like devoting yourself to a rhythm. And letting that rhythm rewire you. When I lead students through the Master-in-Training year (Level IV), we don’t just talk about energy. We live it. We meet each week with intention. We practice. We unravel. We realign. And we do it inside a sacred container where your nervous system can rest, your field can stabilize, and your gifts can take shape.

A Sacred Invitation

If this post landed for you… there’s a reason.

The path of initiation isn’t abstract. It’s structured. Grounded. Held.

And that’s exactly what the Master-in-Training program (Level IV) offers.

This isn’t a course. It’s a sacred apprenticeship.

A yearlong container where your growth isn’t just witnessed… it’s stabilized.

Where your intuition sharpens. Your presence deepens. And your old stories begin to fall away. Not overnight, but with rhythm, practice, and grace.

If you’ve felt the inner nudge…the one that won’t quiet down…this may be your time to say yes.

Not to more searching, but to structure. Not to more theory, but to embodiment. Not to more tools, but to transformation.

The invitation is open. If the door is meant for you… you’ll feel it.

The 7-Step Map for Going from Awakening to Embodiment

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

There comes a moment on the spiritual path when the insights are no longer enough. You’ve had the dreams. You’ve felt the surges of energy. You’ve read the books, taken the courses, and maybe even started sharing your gifts. But something still feels partial. Like the pieces haven’t quite landed in your body.

That’s because awakening and embodiment are not the same thing.

Awakening is the spark. Embodiment is the flame that endures. Awakening changes how you see. Embodiment changes how you live.

What most people don’t realize is that the gap between the two can stretch for years (sometimes decades) if it’s not consciously bridged. The mind can awaken long before the field is ready to hold that new frequency. And that’s where frustration, doubt, and inertia set in.

So what does it take to bridge that gap? After more than 20 years of teaching energy medicine and witnessing thousands of students move through this shift, I’ve come to see a clear pattern. A progression. A map.

Not a rigid formula, but a set of energetic thresholds that carry a seeker from awakening into lived, spiritual embodiment.

Here’s how that path unfolds:

Step 1: The Disruption

Every journey begins with something breaking down. A loss. An illness. A spiritual experience that unravels the illusion of safety. The disruption is rarely convenient. It rarely comes when we feel ready. But it cracks the shell of your previous self.

Most people try to resist this step. They ask how to get back to “normal.” But disruption isn’t punishment. It’s preparation. What looks like collapse is actually space being cleared.

The energy body begins to restructure long before the conscious mind agrees.

Step 2: The Search for Light

Once the old container has shattered, there’s a hunger. The seeker enters the absorption phase. Everything feels new and alive…books, courses, modalities, teachers. You want to understand what’s happening inside you. You collect tools, frameworks, and insights like sacred breadcrumbs.

This is necessary. But it’s also incomplete.

Many seekers stay in this phase far too long. The search becomes the identity. They know everything about healing… except how to live it.

Awakening without anchoring creates energetic instability. Eventually, the body demands something deeper.

Step 3: The Shadow Reveals

As light enters the system, it illuminates what has been suppressed. Old patterns. Wounds. Stories. Ancestral pain. Suddenly, you’re no longer floating. You’re face to face with the parts of yourself you tried to bypass.

This is the phase where many give up. They say, “I was doing so well. Why is this happening now?” But this is the medicine. The initiation.

You cannot embody what you’re unwilling to face.

The trick here is to not pathologize the shadow. It’s not failure. It’s invitation.

Step 4: The Sacred Mirror

This is the first major turning point. And the step most people cannot do alone. The sacred mirror is an external container. A teacher. A lineage. A group field that can hold you as you begin to embody. Why does this matter? Because energy does not stabilize in isolation. Without reflection, your nervous system can’t calibrate to the higher frequency. You start to wobble, to question, to shrink. This is where Level IV begins. It offers the container. Not just teachings; transmission. Not just learning; resonance. When you are held in a sacred mirror, your system begins to trust the shift. Embodiment doesn’t just happen because you want it. It happens when your field feels safe enough to reorganize. And that safety often comes from being witnessed.

Step 5: The Choice to Stay

Eventually, the glamour wears off. The highs fade. The ego flares. And you’re asked (sometimes subtly, sometimes forcefully) to choose.

Do you stay on the path when it’s not exciting? Do you stay when no one is watching? Do you stay when everything inside you wants to return to comfort?

This is where embodiment is forged. Not in peak states, but in consistency. Integrity. Humility.

The people who cross this threshold often look unremarkable from the outside. They’re not shouting on mountaintops. But their presence becomes unmistakable. Calming. Magnetic. Grounded.

That’s what real embodiment looks like.

Step 6: The Quiet Flame

Eventually, there’s a shift. You’re no longer trying to become something. You’re no longer reaching for light. The light has settled. It has roots.

You speak more clearly. You sense more cleanly. You begin to carry your presence like a frequency. Not as a performance, but as a current.

People feel it. They come to you without knowing why. The service finds you. The message comes through you. You’re not performing healing. You’ve become the field where healing happens.

Step 7: The Return With Power

Once embodiment is anchored, a new kind of movement begins — not from seeking, but from being. The initiate becomes a guide, whether formally or simply through presence. In this step, the energy no longer flows to you or through you. It begins flowing as you.

This is where your service stops looking like effort and starts looking like alignment. It’s where your voice — your actual spoken voice — starts carrying transmission. You don’t need a stage or a role. The field around you tells the truth of who you are.

This is the return to ordinary life… as someone who is anything but ordinary.

This is what Level IV points toward. It is not a course. It is not a toolkit. It’s the sacred fire where your gifts are remembered, refined, and lived.

Not just for you. For the lives you’re meant to touch.

I want to leave you with this:

You don’t need another awakening. You need anchoring. Witnessing. Structure. Transmission.

You need a place where your field can stabilize, your gifts can rise, and your truth can be lived. Every day, not just in ceremony.

That’s what LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV is for.

It’s a yearlong immersion into the sacred fire of transformation. Not as concept, but as practice. In Level IV, you’re not just learning about energy. You’re living it. You’re not studying your gifts. You’re using them… in real time, in a held space, with direct mentorship.

People join Level IV because they know they’ve outgrown the solo path. Because the insights they’ve gathered need a place to land. Because they’re tired of plateauing and ready to embody the truth they already sense inside themselves.

This isn’t about becoming a healer. Though many do. It’s about becoming whole. It’s about rewiring the patterns that fragment your energy. It’s about becoming the kind of person whose presence itself is medicine.

You’ll work in a sacred group container. You’ll be mentored directly by me and supported by advanced teachers. You’ll participate in monthly live teachings, community practice, private healing clinics, and one unforgettable retreat.

The transformation? You’ll speak differently. Breathe differently. See differently. Your energy will start doing the work before you even open your mouth.

Because this isn’t education. It’s initiation.

If you’re feeling the call, you likely already know.

The doors to Level IV are now open. Enrollment details were included in your retreat welcome packet and have been sent via email.

And if you’ve already decided, this is your confirmation.

Healing Others Without Losing Yourself

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

One of the most common questions I hear from students (especially those beginning to work with others energetically) is this: “Why do I feel so drained after a session?”

The answer is rarely what they expect.

They assume they did something wrong. Or that the client was too much. Or that their energy just needs to be stronger.

But what’s usually happening is this: they were never taught how to hold space without absorbing. They were never taught how to recognize entanglement before it takes root.

They were never taught that helping doesn’t always mean healing. And that without structure, helping can actually slow a client’s progress and deplete the practitioner in the process.

Sensitivity Is Not Enough

I’ve met thousands of students over the years who identify as highly sensitive. They feel things others don’t. They pick up emotional undercurrents in a room. They absorb other people’s moods, often without realizing it.

These gifts are real. But they are not the same as being ready to work in someone else’s energy field.

Working with energy requires more than empathy. It requires training. You need to know how to stay rooted in your own system while supporting someone else’s release. Otherwise, your boundaries become permeable.

Their grief becomes your fatigue. Their fear settles into your field. Over time, that creates confusion, burnout, and a complete breakdown in the practitioner-client relationship.

The Energy Field Is Not a Metaphor

When I teach students how to sense the human energy field, one of the first things I emphasize is that we’re not working with an idea. We’re working with a functional system. One that holds memory, pattern, trauma, belief, and spiritual data. Just because it isn’t visible doesn’t mean it’s abstract.

Think of what happens in talk therapy when a client begins to cry. The therapist doesn’t just sit back and watch. They hold presence. They track emotion. They adjust pacing. All of that is energetic…even in modalities that don’t call it that.

Now take that same emotional release and translate it into a direct energetic session. The client’s energy field opens. Information rises. Emotional residue begins to surface. The practitioner’s system, if not properly grounded, will react. If they aren’t trained to clear or stabilize, they may confuse what’s rising in them with what’s being released in the client.

That’s how energy healing becomes a cycle of mutual overwhelm. That’s not service. That’s co-processing.

A Cautionary Pattern

I’ve seen it happen over and over again: a student has a powerful experience in Level I or Level II. They begin to feel more connected, more open, more intuitive. They sense things during meditation. They pick up energetic information in conversation. They help a friend release an old emotional wound and feel the thrill of being useful.

So they start offering sessions. They mean well. But within a few months, they’re exhausted. Their own healing work has stalled. Their nervous system is dysregulated. Their relationships are fraying. They begin to question their gifts.

The problem isn’t that they’re not gifted. The problem is that they moved into advanced work without the foundation to hold it.

This is why I always tell students: just because the light is coming in doesn’t mean the structure is ready to carry it.

Service Requires Skill

You don’t need to be perfect to help others. But you do need to be clear. You need to understand what you’re holding and what’s not yours to carry. You need to know when your own field has become compromised…and how to reset it. You need to be able to recognize when your “insight” is actually projection, and when your fatigue is a signal that a boundary wasn’t held.

I’ve seen powerful healers do real damage because they didn’t recognize these dynamics. Not out of malice. Out of enthusiasm. Out of love. But love, in this work, is not enough.

You must pair it with discernment. With boundaries. With training that teaches you what your field can hold, and how to support transformation without becoming the container for someone else’s pain.

What Happens When You Train Properly

In the advanced levels of my LifeForce Energy Healing® program, I teach students how to build a safe energetic structure for client work. They learn how to prepare before a session, how to assess the field, how to detect blockage versus trauma storage, how to clear without entangling, and how to close down properly afterward. They learn how to work with spirit, not through force or rescue energy.

And most importantly, they learn how to stay centered in themselves, no matter what arises.

That’s not abstract. It’s trainable.

I’ve watched students go from disoriented and overwhelmed to clear, confident, and precise. They don’t need to overtalk during sessions. They don’t need to absorb in order to connect. They know how to let energy move without making it about them.

That’s not just professionalism. That’s integrity. And it’s the only way to do this work sustainably.

If You’re Ready to Do the Work For Real

If you feel the pull to go deeper with your energy work… not just in your own healing, but in how you show up for others…

I invite you to attend the upcoming Level IV Open House. It’s happening on Thursday, June 5th at 2pm PDT.

This isn’t a sales event. It’s a real gathering.

You’ll hear from students who are walking the path now. You’ll see how the structure works. And you’ll get a feel for what it means to step into a yearlong container of energetic training. Not just as a student, but as a practitioner in the making.

Click here to RSVP for the Level IV Open House >>

If you’re already helping others (or want to) this is how you make sure you can do it without sacrificing your own well-being.

Healing others is sacred work. But it’s not neutral. You need to know what you’re doing. And you need a place to grow as the healer you’re becoming.

If that’s where you are… come to the Open House. See if this is your next step.

I’ll be there. And if you feel the pull, I hope you will too.

The Ones Who Stayed: Why Mastery Takes Time

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

In every spiritual tradition, there are stories of the seekers who didn’t stop at awakening…the ones who stayed.

They didn’t just have a moment of insight and return to daily life unchanged. They withdrew deeper, listened longer, followed farther. They kept going, long after the moment of inspiration had passed. Not because they had to. Because they were called.

We don’t often hear their full stories. We’re told about the vision under the tree, the healing in the marketplace, the resurrection on the third day. But between those public miracles were long stretches of quiet practice. Years of internal work. Humbling, devotional discipline. The kind of steady transformation that never makes headlines.

Take Mary Magdalene.

We remember her as the one who stood at the tomb, the first to witness the risen Christ. But few speak of the decades she spent afterward in exile, living in solitude, continuing her sacred work. Not on a public stage, but in silence, in transmission, in prayer.

Or look to figures like Teresa of Ávila, who founded monasteries while navigating illness and spiritual desolation, holding her faith not because it was easy, but because it was real.

Or Mary Baker Eddy, who founded a church that became a global movement that challenged materialism at a time when women were not expected to speak, let alone lead.

These are the ones who didn’t stop when it got hard.

They didn’t move on when their egos got bruised.

They didn’t confuse a glimpse of the Divine with the end of the journey.

They kept going.

They stayed.

And they stayed because something inside them knew the truth: Mastery takes time.

Awakening Is the Beginning, Not the End

It’s easy to assume that a breakthrough, a mystical experience, or an energetic opening is the final destination. And it’s understandable. Those moments feel powerful. They change us. They remind us of who we are.

But what happens after awakening?

That’s where the real work begins.

After the light floods in, we still have to live in a world that forgets. We still have to navigate our old patterns, relationships, responsibilities, and doubts. And if we want to hold that awakened energy for more than a moment…if we want it to take root in our bodies, our choices, our presence…we need structure.

We need devotion.

We need time.

This is the piece so many seekers miss. They want the miracle, but not the discipline. They want the insight, but not the integration.

But without integration, insight doesn’t last. It becomes a memory instead of a foundation.

True mastery is not just about what you experience. It’s about how consistently you can embody it.

The Soul Knows When It’s Time

If you’ve found your way to my work — and especially if you’ve traveled through one of my courses — chances are, you’re not new to the spiritual path.

You’ve been walking this for a while. You’ve done inner work. You’ve learned how to tune in, clear your field, protect your energy.

And yet… something in you may be sensing that it’s time to go deeper.

The old frameworks may feel too small. The techniques that used to work may no longer bring the same results. You may feel a subtle pull — not flashy, not loud — but unmistakable.

A knowing that your next level is waiting. And that it won’t be found in shortcuts or weekend workshops.

It will be found in the day-by-day practice of becoming who you truly are.

That’s the call of mastery.

And if you’re feeling it, you’re not alone.

When You’re Ready to Stay

I created the LifeForce Energy Healing® Level IV program for this exact moment. For students who have done the foundational work and are ready to anchor their growth in something deeper.

It’s not a quick fix or a casual course. It’s a year-long journey designed for those who are committed to embodiment, consistency, and spiritual leadership (whether publicly or quietly, whether for others or simply for your own evolution).

It’s a path for those who feel the stirrings of something greater, and know they need a sacred structure to hold it. It’s for the ones who stayed.

If you’re sensing that this is your next step, you’ll receive more information soon if you sign up for the email list by clicking here.

But for now, let yourself be with the question:

What would it mean for me to stay with this work… fully, consciously, without rushing to the next thing?

Because mastery doesn’t come from what you visit once. It comes from what you live in, again and again, until it becomes who you are.

Are You Ready to Join the Pantheon of Energy Healers? Look Within to Awaken Your Power! What the World Needs Now—Your Healing Gifts!

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training

Could you be one of the energy healers of tomorrow, a modern master of the ancient healing tradition?

It can all begin on the smallest, most personal level. Maybe there is something in your life that you want to heal. Your health, your weight, your finances, your work, your relationships. And maybe you not only want to heal the parts of your own life that aren’t working, but you also long to help others.

Have you ever wondered about the extent of your healing powers? What would be needed to awaken your capacity to heal yourself and others? How would it feel to expand your consciousness and channel healing energy to help resolve any infirmity on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual planes?

As often happens in our amazing universe, the secret of healing power is waiting in plain sight. Mahatma Gandhi, beloved healer of hearts and minds, said, “There is force in the universe, which, if we permit it, will flow through us and produce remarkable results.”  Gandhi knew how to harness this force to approach his healing goals of establishing a peaceful and just society. Today, we would call the force Gandhi describes the universal energy field. It is the energy upon which our universe runs–intelligent, alive, and the source of everything. It is the source of healing power.

My experience with this miraculous power began when I was faced with a life-threatening illness. I recovered with the help of an energy healer. I had to know more. What was this amazing, healing force? In my decades of study, I’ve learned almost all that I know about this healing force experientially—in prayer, in meditation, and while conducting energy in the practice of healing. Once I learned to heal the wounded parts of myself, I was able to channel this energy to heal others. I was privileged to enter the tradition of energy medicine known and practiced for millennia.

The ancients knew this conscious and creative energy: how it permeates all space, flows from one object to another, and connects one thing to everything else. What seers took for granted thousands of years ago, present-day scientists are just beginning to understand. Energy medicine, the employment of this inexhaustible force to effect healing in yourself and others, dates back to the dawn of human history.

Every ancient culture on Earth, from the Mayan and the Aztec to the East Indian and Chinese, had healing systems that worked with the human energy field. Prayer and Divine intervention were considered essential elements of healing practice. Wasn’t the Divine the source of all life and the energy that fuels it?

Among the most famous healers of all time was Jesus of Nazareth. Everywhere he went, crowds gathered in the hope of being healed.  The Christ energy, or Christ light, evolved from Jesus’s activation of the power of love and his message of compassion and care. Think of that light as the ancestral Source that we in the modern era can also connect to—a white light that illuminates us and heals all. Jesus was the master healer, and he told his followers to do as he had done. With faith and an open heart, they, too, could heal.

According to astrologers, we have entered the Age of Aquarius, or the age of the common man and woman. In the ancient world, it was believed that this would be the time when all of the lost mysteries would be revealed to ordinary people. I believe that this time has indeed come. We see it happening with increasing regularity: in new physics, new biology, and a new approach to medicine. The frequency and pace of individuals experiencing a spiritual awakening today is staggering… and very exciting!

Are you going to be among those who carry the mystery of ancient healing knowledge forward? Are your healing gifts waiting to be awakened and put to work in a world that desperately needs healing energy? What would it mean to develop your healing mastery: become accomplished through knowledge and practice, gain control of your inner world, and show great skill in your actions and your relationships with others and the world around you?

I’d love for you to join me for a deeper exploration of ancient healing traditions and how you can uncover your true calling. Discover how you can become the person you were meant to be.

And the best way to do that is through our most intense (and most life-changing) program, the LifeForce Energy Healing Level IV year-long program. You can learn more here.

But first, let me share 3 ways that studying to become a modern master of healing could help you advance on the path toward higher spiritual consciousness and your best life:

  1. Learn to master your mind. A study of the spiritual science of ancient India offers the secrets of mantra meditation. The purpose of meditation is to still the mind; calm, cleanse, and refresh the body; and increase your connection to Spirit. If enough of us connect to Source and to each other, we will bring about a profound transformation of life on Earth.
  1. Become a master of your healing gifts. Learn to look more clearly at your inner self, your experience, and your beliefs. Who are you and what is your connection to Source and to the world around you? What are you here to do and to give? Expanding your self-awareness through the spiritual science of ancient India will give you greater resources for contributing to the healing of the world.

Are you ready to step into that role? Are you ready to step into your own mastery?

Initiation: Spiritual Evolution at a Whole New Level

by Energy MedicineFeaturedMaster-in-Training
Level Up Spirituality

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo. And with a wave of her magic wand, the fairy godmother transforms Cinderella, the lowly servant of her stepmother and stepsisters, into the belle of the ball and the beloved of Prince Charming. But there are rules: if you don’t get home from the ball by midnight, your gorgeous gown turns back into dirty rags and your handsome coach turns back into a pumpkin. But somehow you have managed to hold onto the glass slipper—a reminder that the “real” you is actually a sparkling star.

I’m not really promoting a Disney princess as an ideal you should be trying to emulate, but it’s interesting how fairy tales so often mimic deep spiritual truths.

Level Up Spirituality

Like Cinderella, you may have fallen on hard times. It was the death of Cinderella’s mother that brought the wicked stepmother into her life. For you, it may have been a nasty divorce, or the death of a loved one, or a difficult disease or accident, or a financial crisis that brought you to your knees. Whatever the cause, you find yourself feeling “less than” who you know yourself to be.

Did Cinderella whine and fret and complain? No, she managed to keep making lemonade out of the lemons in her life. She shared song and laughter with her animal friends. She did the chores she was handed, no matter how unfair. And her underlying goodness, her ability to rise above her circumstances, brought the fairy godmother and the power of transformation to her . . . because Cinderella was ready.

What makes you ready to transform? Doing whatever is in front of you to do, while maintaining your ability to turn obstacles into challenges and not giving in to despair (at least not too often). And if you can sing with the animals, or connect to nature in whatever way you can, that can help keep you balanced. Beyond that, you can develop a meditation practice. Learning to go inside and find the joy and peace that bubbles up from the inner silence can help you get through any pain or difficulty, as well as laying the foundation for initiation.

Level Up Spirituality

Initiation is both an experience and a process. It may be that magical moment when a master healer or spiritual teacher looks at you and “sees” initiatory energy waiting to be brought down into you. And if you are open enough, if you are ready, you may feel waves of bliss entering your body, or a powerful vibration shooting up your spine and out your fingertips, or see beautiful colors or hear angelic voices. You will be suffused in love. You’ll light up from within and radiate bliss. Of course, after the ball is over and you’re back to sweeping the hearth and doing the laundry, you will still have that glass slipper in the pocket of your apron. You will remember the experience of initiation and know that somehow your life is going to change—the prince will knock at your door, the check will arrive in the mail, you’ll find a new job that suits you so much better.

Level Up Spirituality

Because initiation goes beyond the magical moment. It is the process of reaching higher and higher levels of spiritual energy and abilities. It’s part and parcel of spiritual evolution, like going from kindergarten up through grade school and high school and then into the rarified realms of college and graduate school. Your Ph.D. will be self-realization. You may get left behind a grade if you don’t pass the tests that naturally arise—like pride in your initiations, or greed for more initiations, or jealousy of others who are having these experiences—but the process will eventually lead you to greater awareness and your ultimate transformation into an enlightened master.

Does this sound like a fairy tale? It’s not. But it is the stuff that dreams are made of.

Do you dream of being able to make the right decisions in your life by listening to your intuition? Do you have fantasies of being a powerful speaker or blogger, standing up for the rights of others? Do you wish you could do something meaningful with your life, like helping to heal others? What is your life purpose? Your destiny?

Level Up Spirituality

Become that person you’re meant to be by initiating more fully. The best place to do that is on my LifeForce Energy Healing® Master-in-Training year-long program; check it out here. And may your spiritual guides, like a trusty fairy godmother, turn that pumpkin into the handsome coach that will carry you forth into the realms of higher awareness
