I'm Kate, a sensitive individual, Occupational Therapist, Mentor to therapists, and Intuitive Energy Healer. My fascination with the nervous system, trauma, and the way our bodies retain experiences has been a constant in my life. Having lived with a highly sensitive nervous system and an expressive body, my desire for knowledge has stemmed not only from a wish to support my clients but also from a need to understand myself better. Throughout my professional journey, I identified a recurring theme. Despite feeling closely connected to my mind and body, I often relied on external validation. I allowed others to dominate conversations, even to overwhelm me, despite recognising the importance of my own needs. I struggled to trust my voice and often let others take charge, even when I had significant insights to contribute.
This tendency largely stemmed from my heightened emotional empathy. I found myself entwined in other people's energies, making it difficult to stay grounded and connect with my own truth. This challenge intensified when I worked with clients dealing with complex trauma, as I often brought their stories home, unable to separate myself from their experiences after a long day. Burnout, my people-pleasing ways, and chronic pain cracked me open in the best way. They woke me up and led me to my vision of guiding others back to themselves.

One day in March 2023, I was unable to get out of bed. My body had reached its limit. It was then that I understood something I had been misinterpreting for years; my role as an Occupational Therapist in mental health was draining my own energy. Over time, these patterns resulted in exhaustion and chronic pain. Whilst I loved my job and was an accomplished therapist, I struggled to comprehend why I felt perpetually depleted. I maintained strong professional boundaries and engaged in all the usual self-care practices, yet nothing alleviated the drain.
The day that I couldn’t get out of bed, was a decisive halt. My body asserted its needs and simply said: no. This moment marked a turning point for me. I reduced my workload, let go of clients who depleted my energy, established firmer operational boundaries, and sought guidance from mentors who could help me understand my energy dynamics and what my body was communicating. The more I oriented myself inward, the clearer and more grounded I became. Eighteen months later, I had achieved a greater sense of balance, but something unexpected unfolded. What appeared to be a breakdown to those around me was, in fact, an awakening. I came to realise that the work I had been engaged in was no longer my true path. Every experience, regardless of how painful or confusing it felt at the time, was steering me back to my authentic self. Transforming my challenges into the very gifts I was meant to share.

FEATURE
There was something even more magical and aligned waiting for me. For over a year, I had envisioned guiding other therapists, but I hadn't yet figured out how to bring that dream to life. The first step I took was to close my Occupational Therapist business and take an extended break to acknowledge the persistent exhaustion I felt. During this period, I felt a strong pull towards Reiki. Within two months, I completed my Level 1 and 2 training. Reiki transformed my life by providing me with a new level of energetic clarity and quickly became integral to my vision. Supporting therapists in protecting their energy while merging science with spirituality, the visible with the invisible. I then commenced my new business; Expand With Kate.
I now offer a mentorship program called "Resourced," which spans 3 to 4 months and is designed to help therapists become aware of their energy leaks that occur throughout the day. These leaks are often rooted in outdated protective patterns such as over-giving, perfectionism, or self- silencing. Together, we develop tools that allow therapists to connect with their embodied selves. Participants learn to release what doesn’t belong to them, tune into their own bodies and energy, and return fully to themselves. By the end of their workday, they feel grounded, present, and energise, no longer weighed down by their work.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 08
FEATURE
Reiki plays a crucial role in this process. It gently removes the energetic layers that obstruct clarity and integration. Although we may recognise the need to let go or establish boundaries, it doesn’t feel safe until that understanding resonates in our bodies. This is where embodied awareness becomes essential. Through my personal and professional experiences, I've discovered that sensitivity and empathy are remarkable gifts, provided we learn to protect and channel them. Without this awareness, the very qualities that make us effective therapists can leave us drained and disconnected from ourselves.
For me, this transformation was not only professional but profoundly personal. It enabled me to embrace a life aligned with my energy, values, and vision. Now, I have the privilege of guiding other therapists to do the same. To help them to operate from a place of abundance rather than depletion. To reconnect with their bodies for clarity and presence, allowing them to continue serving others while living according to their own values. In addition to mentoring, I also provide intuitive energy healing in my local community and offer distant Reiki sessions globally. Teaching others to listen to their body’s wisdom and develop energy hygiene skills is a common thread in all my endeavours.
In a world that increasingly needs sensitive and emotionally attuned individuals, we cannot give what we do not first protect.

ETHERIC CORD CUTTING
Etheric Cord Cutting: A Path to Emotional and Spiritual Freedom
In the realm of spiritual and energy healing, the concept of "etheric cords" has gained significant attention as a way to understand the connections we have to others, both healthy and unhealthy. Etheric cords are energetic ties that link one person’s energy field to another’s, often formed through emotional bonds, past relationships, trauma, or intense experiences. While some of these cords are beneficial, promoting love, connection, and healing, others may be detrimental, draining our energy or keeping us emotionally tethered to the past. Etheric cord cutting is a spiritual practice used to sever these negative energetic connections, freeing individuals from emotional and spiritual burdens.
What Are Etheric Cords?
Etheric cords are subtle energy connections that link individuals on an energetic level. These cords are believed to form whenever two people share a strong emotional bond, such as love, fear, anger, grief, or even attachment. The idea is rooted in the understanding that our energy fields, or auras, are interconnected with those of others, and through these connections, emotions, thoughts, and intentions can be exchanged. While positive etheric cords can promote healing and strengthen loving bonds, negative or toxic cords often develop in situations where one person feels emotionally drained, manipulated, or overwhelmed by another. These unhealthy ties can linger long after the relationship has ended, continuing to influence the individual’s mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

FEEL INSPIRED
Why Do We Need To Do Etheric Cord Cuttings?
Over time, etheric cords can begin to take a toll on your life if they are not severed. Here are some common reasons why people seek etheric cord cutting:
Emotional Drainage: Prolonged emotional ties to someone, whether through love, grief, or unresolved conflict, can leave you feeling energetically depleted. The attachment can continue to pull at your energy, preventing you from moving forward in life. Unresolved Trauma: Past emotional trauma, such as the loss of a loved one or an abusive event, can create etheric cords that tie you to the experience. These connections can hinder your healing process, preventing you from fully letting go of the past.
Toxic Relationships: In abusive or toxic relationships, etheric cords may form that leave one person feeling manipulated, controlled, or exhausted. Cutting these cords can help break free from the unhealthy dynamic.
Clinging to the Past: Sometimes, etheric cords form with people, situations, or aspects of ourselves that we refuse to release. Cutting these cords is a means of embracing change and moving forward.
Fear and Negative Energy: Fear-based etheric cords often develop from experiences involving anxiety, jealousy, or stress. These negative connections can manifest as recurring emotional disturbances that prevent inner peace.

The Process of Etheric Cord Cutting
Etheric cord cutting is typically done through meditation, visualisation, or working with an energy healer or spiritual practitioner. While some individuals prefer to perform this ritual on their own, others seek guidance from professionals who specialise in energy healing, such as Reiki practitioners, psychics, or shamans. Here’s a general overview of the steps involved in the etheric cord cutting process:
PREPARATION:
Before beginning the process, it’s important to be in a calm and quiet environment. Find a comfortable, distraction-free space where you can relax. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself and prepare to connect with your higher consciousness. Ground yourself by visualising roots growing from your feet into the earth. This grounding technique helps you maintain balance and focus during the process, allowing for a clearer release of negative energy. GROUNDING:
VISUALISATION OF THE CORD:
Next, visualise the etheric cord in question. This may be with a person or situation that you feel emotionally tied to. The cord may appear as a physical object, such as a rope or chain, or it may present itself as a glowing thread or string of light. Recognise the connection and feel the energy it holds.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 13
FEEL INSPIRED
CUTTING THE CORD:
Once the cord is clearly visualised, imagine using a tool like a pair of scissors, a sword, or a knife to sever the connection. As you do so, focus on the intention of freeing yourself from any negative energy that’s been passed through the cord. SENDING LOVE AND HEALING: After cutting the cord, send love and healing energy toward the person or situation you’ve just released. This is an important part of the process, as it helps release any lingering negative emotions, such as anger or resentment. Let go of the need for any further attachment to the person or event. CLOSING THE ENERGY FIELD: Once the cord is severed and healing energy has been sent, visualise the area where the cord once existed filling with light and warmth. Picture your energy field becoming whole again, free from any draining attachments.
AFFIRMATION:
To seal the process, you can affirm that you are now free from all harmful energetic connections. A simple affirmation like “I am free from all negative attachments and I release all that no longer serves me” can reinforce your intention.

Benefits of Etheric Cord Cutting
When done with intention and clarity, etheric cord cutting can bring profound emotional and spiritual benefits, such as:
Emotional Healing: By cutting away unhealthy attachments, you make space for emotional recovery and peace. Releasing these cords allows you to break free from old wounds that may have been holding you back. Energy Restoration: Etheric cord cutting can help restore your energy field by releasing energetic drains. This can leave you feeling revitalized, more present, and better able to manage your emotions. Clarity and Focus: Once the distractions of negative energetic attachments are removed, you may find it easier to focus on your personal goals and desires. This newfound clarity can help you create a more empowered path forward. Spiritual Growth: Letting go of old, lingering attachments opens the door to spiritual growth. You can move forward with a renewed sense of purpose and connection to your higher self. Etheric cord cutting is a powerful and transformative tool for emotional and spiritual healing. Whether you’re dealing with past relationships, unresolved trauma, or negative energy, this practice offers a way to sever ties that no longer serve your highest good. By performing regular etheric cord cuttings, you can maintain a healthy energy field, embrace new opportunities, and live a more balanced and peaceful life. If you feel overwhelmed or unsure, seeking guidance from a professional energy healer can help you navigate the process with more confidence. Regardless of whether you choose to perform the practice on your own or with support, etheric cord cutting can be a deeply cathartic experience that brings you closer to the person you are meant to be.

JESS DEMPSTER Interview with Kinesiologist
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 16
My journey into Kinesiology began after a whiplash injury that left me in chronic pain, searching for answers. I felt like I had tried everything across both Western and Eastern approaches, but the relief was short lived. Hi Jess, what inspired you to start your business? Expand KINESIOLOGY INTERVIEW
I was exhausted, frustrated and isolated, until I found the missing piece to my puzzle; Kinesiology.
What I didn’t know then was that it would not only support my physical recovery but open the door to a deeper kind of healing, that would eventually transform every part of me and in turn my life. After years working in corporate events, I was no stranger to burnout. I was constantly “on,” over-giving, over-performing and running on empty. Even after studying Kinesiology, it took me time to recognise that my body was screaming for change. Kinesiology became the mirror that helped me see how disconnected I had become; from myself, my boundaries, my values and my purpose. It guided me back home to my body, helped me release the layers of stress I had normalised, and ultimately gave me the courage to take a leap of faith, leaving the reactive corporate world to create something of my own. That leap became Expand Kinesiology, a space dedicated to helping others reconnect with themselves, restore balance, and rediscover who they truly are beneath the burnout, anxiety, or self-doubt.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 17
INTERVIEW
What is Kinesiology?
Kinesiology is a gentle holistic therapy that supports the body’s natural ability to restore balance across all aspects of our being (physical, emotional, mental, energetic, and spiritual). At its core, Kinesiology uses a biofeedback tool called “muscle monitoring” to communicate directly with the nervous system, allowing us to bypass the conscious mind and access the subconscious and unconscious, or what we call in Kinesiology, the body’s innate intelligence. Here, we can uncover the underlying stressor preventing you from feeling your best. Often, what we consciously want (“to feel calm,” “to move forward,” “to feel loved”) doesn’t match what our unconscious believes (“it’s not safe to rest,” “I have to do it all myself,” “I’m not enough”). Kinesiology bridges that gap, revealing what support the body needs to release the stress and self-heal.
Each session is unique, and draws from both modern science and ancient wisdom, blending elements of Western modalities like chiropractic and nutrition with Eastern practices such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), meridian theory, and energetic tools. Rather than treating symptoms, Kinesiology works with the cause, supporting your body’s natural intelligence to restore equilibrium. It’s a process of unravelling, releasing, and remembering, helping you reconnect with your best self.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 18
INTERVIEW
Can you explain what you do in your business?
At Expand Kinesiology, my work focuses on emotional health, nervous system regulation, and intergenerational healing. I support clients experiencing anxiety, burnout, chronic pain, relationship challenges, grief, or a loss of connection to themselves, as well as those simply wanting to deepen self-awareness and transform their lives.
I hold a Diploma of Kinesiology and am a Level 5 Registered Kinesiologist with the Australian Kinesiology Association (AKA).
I also integrate the Sonawave Reset Method™, a fascia-informed technique designed to interrupt bracing patterns, calm the nervous system, and restore muscular activation. This gentle technique also helps the body release tension, improve lymph flow, and create a sense of lightness.
The space I’ve created at Expand Kinesiology is one where clients feel safe, seen, and supported. A place to help them rediscover their inner strength, reconnect to their intuition, and release old patterns that have been keeping them stuck. My intention is always to meet the body where it’s at, honouring its innate intelligence and allowing it to guide the process of healing and change. Watching clients begin to trust themselves, find their confidence, and start living in alignment with their best selves is the most fulfilling part of what I do.

INTERVIEW
Do you have any final words?
Kinesiology taught me that healing isn’t about “fixing” ourselves, because we were never broken to begin with. It’s about remembering who we are underneath the layers of stress, conditioning, and survival. It’s about learning to listen when your body whispers before it has to scream. Your body holds your story, but it also holds the wisdom to release it. When we create safety within the nervous system, the body naturally begins to let go. My role is to hold space for that unfolding, to help you listen to what your body has been trying to say all along. Because when your body feels safe, it can finally open to change.

SMALL JOYS, BIG SHIFT: POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY YOU CAN USE EVERY DAY
I am a social worker in private practice, with the foundation of a Psychology Degree, I use a holistic approach that is tailored to each persons unique and individual situation. I use evidence-based psychological theories to normalise your current situation, and provide realistic achievable strategies to make a positive difference.
SURVIVING THE CHRISTMAS PERIOD
Silly season is upon us, and it is the silly season for so many reasons!
Most of us are experts at postponing joy until the inbox is empty, the to-do list is done, or the stars finally align. Positive psychology offers a kinder path: it teaches us how to cultivate wellbeing in the middle of real life, without pretending everything is perfect or “good vibes only.” It’s not about toxic positivity. It’s about building practices that help your nervous system settle, your attention soften, and your heart re-open to the beauty already around you. Below are simple, science-informed tools I use with clients (and myself!) to grow everyday resilience. They pair beautifully with body-based approaches like Reiki, breathwork, or gentle movement. Think of them as small, repeatable acts that rewire how you relate to yourself and the world. Savouring: stretch the good by 20 seconds (Glimmers) Your brain is Velcro for the negative and Teflon for the positive. Savouring is how we “teach” it to linger on what nourishes us.
When something tiny but pleasant happens (warm sun on your face, a kind text, the first sip of coffee) pause for 20 seconds. Breathe. Notice the sensations, the colours, the sound. Let the experience land in your body. You’ve just turned a passing moment into a micro- dose of regulation.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 23
INTERVIEW
Strengths: do more of what works (lean into it)
We’re trained to obsess over weaknesses. Positive psychology flips that script. Your signature strengths (kindness, curiosity, perseverance, creativity, humour—there are many) are the reliable engines of your energy. When you use them on purpose, life feels more like you. Try this: pick one strength you know you have and deploy it intentionally today. If you’re high in curiosity, ask three deeper questions in your next conversation. If you’re high in kindness, send a voice note of appreciation. Strengths in action generate momentum.
Micro-connections: the nervous system loves warmth Wellbeing isn’t a solo sport. Tiny, frequent moments of connection regulate our biology: a smile at the barista, eye contact with a neighbour, a genuine “How are you… really?” with a friend. These micro-moments don’t fix everything, but they take the thorns out of the day.
Try this: commit to one honest thank- you daily. Name something specific: “I felt calmer after our chat, thank you.” Specificity makes it land.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 24
INTERVIEW
Meaning: live your values in five-minute blocks
Purpose isn’t a grand mission statement; it’s small acts aligned with what you care about. If you value learning, read one page. If you value family, put your phone down for a 10-minute play on the floor. If you value health, step outside for air and light. Meaning builds through repetition, not intensity.
Body first, brain second (brain anxiety, heart truth)
When emotions surge, the body goes offline or into overdrive. Cognitive tools land better once the system is steadier. Think: down-regulate, then reflect.
Try this: Box breathing (inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4) for one minute.
Or try the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding: name 5 things you see, 4 you feel, 3 you hear, 2 you smell, 1 you taste.
These reset buttons make space for kinder thoughts to emerge.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 25
INTERVIEW
When life is heavy (enter self-compassion)
Positive psychology doesn’t deny pain. It says: bring compassion to it. On tough days, your “win” might be brushing your teeth, texting a friend back, or stepping outside. Let that be enough. Self-talk like “This is hard, and I’m doing my best” is not indulgence—it’s fuel for the next right step.
Talk to yourself as your own bestie!
Why this pairs with holistic work
Cognitive practices train attention and meaning-making; somatic and energetic practices (like Reiki) help the body feel safe enough to receive them.
Together, they create a loop:
Calmer body → clearer mind → kinder actions → steadier body.
Healing becomes less about “fixing” and more about remembering what’s already within you.
You don’t have to renovate your life to feel better. You can start with one breath, one value-aligned act, one moment of awe. Small joys, repeated, become a big shift. And that shift (quiet, consistent) adds up to a life you don’t have to wait to enjoy.

Have you ever thought of someone out of the blue, only to receive their message minutes later? Or noticed the same number — 11:11, 333, 777 — appearing everywhere you look? Perhaps a song comes on the radio that answers a question you’ve been silently asking. These are not coincidences. They are the whispers of the Universe, subtle nudges guiding you along your path. How the Universe Speaks to You Signs, Synchronicities, and Spirit Nudges
The Universe doesn’t speak in words; it communicates through patterns, symbols, and timing. What we call “synchronicity,” a term first used by psychologist Carl Jung, refers to the meaningful coincidences that connect our inner world with outer events. They remind us that we are not separate from creation, we are participants in an ongoing cosmic conversation. When you’re attuned, signs begin to appear everywhere: a feather on your doorstep when you need reassurance, a stranger’s comment that answers your silent prayer, or a sudden detour that leads you to the perfect opportunity. These are not random. They’re orchestrations of a living intelligence that responds to your energy, thoughts, and intentions.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 28
FEEL INSPIRED
Spirit often communicates in simple, repeatable patterns. Repeating numbers like 111 or 444 often carry vibrational meanings of new beginnings or divine protection. An unexpected encounter with an animal may mirror a spiritual message. A butterfly symbolising transformation, a hawk bringing the gift of higher perspective. Songs, phrases, or overheard conversations can carry hidden guidance, and dreams often become portals for messages from higher realms. Even delays and detours can serve as spiritual signposts, the Universe’s gentle way of saying, “Not this way. There’s something better.”
The key to hearing these messages is presence. The more you slow down and quiet your mind, the easier it becomes to notice subtle patterns and sensations. Begin your day with a simple intention: “Show me a sign today that I’m on the right path.” Then release all expectation and trust what arrives. Keep a small journal to record your experiences — over time, you’ll see how the patterns weave together like threads in a divine tapestry. Spend a few minutes each day in silence, simply listening. Spirit often speaks in the spaces between thoughts. And when guidance does come, check in with your heart. True spiritual nudges feel calm, expansive, and quietly certain, never fearful or frantic.
SPIRITUAL HEALING MAGAZINE
WWW.SPIRITMESSAGES.COM.AU I 29
FEEL INSPIRED
Not every coincidence is a cosmic message, of course. The difference lies in the feeling behind it. When your interpretation comes from ego, it feels forced or anxious, as if you’re trying to make meaning where there is none. When it’s genuine guidance, it arrives gently, naturally, and often repeats itself until you can’t ignore it. If you’re unsure, ask your higher self or guides for confirmation, and the right signs will find their way back to you. The more you acknowledge these signs, the more interactive they become. Gratitude opens the channel wider. When something meaningful happens, simply pause and say, “Thank you, I see you.” That recognition strengthens your connection to the divine conversation constantly unfolding around you. In time, you’ll find that life itself begins to feel like a living oracle, each moment brimming with meaning, each coincidence a wink from the Universe. You start moving with the rhythm of the divine rather than against it, guided not by fear or chance, but by a deep and silent knowing.
The Universe is always speaking. The question is not if it’s sending you signs, but are you listening?

INSPIRING STORY
“Our new beginning started with something beautifully ordinary — a single plant.” Marvin & Karli share their story
Karli had spent years in a job she loved, pouring her heart into every shift, until a workplace injury forced her to step away. It wasn’t just the physical setback, it was the emotional toll of leaving behind a role that had become part of her identity. I was on the opposite end of the spectrum, working long hours in corporate roles that demanded everything and gave very little back. No matter how hard I worked, it felt like running on a treadmill that only sped up. We were both burnt out, disillusioned, and uncertain about what the future held. Yet, as we would come to learn, endings often have a funny way of becoming beginnings. Sometimes life doesn’t push us forward, it redirects us. For Karli and I, that redirection came when we least expected it.
Our new beginning started with something beautifully ordinary - a single plant.

Karli’s dad, who owns a small nursery, found himself with an excess of one particular variety. Wanting to help him out, we listed the plants online from home. It was meant to be a small favour, a temporary solution. But within days, our notifications were buzzing. Orders poured in from locals wanting to buy them, and soon, people began asking for more different species, different sizes, plants for balconies, backyards, and living rooms. That small moment of unexpected demand sparked something inside us. We built a simple website. We started offering delivery, using our family car as our first delivery van. What began as a casual side project quickly grew roots. But we didn’t just want to sell plants, we wanted to create a business that gave back. From day one, we made a commitment that every sale would contribute to something bigger than ourselves. Each month, a portion of our profits goes to Australian conservation initiatives, helping replant trees, restore wildlife habitats, and protect endangered ecosystems. Every plant sold isn’t just a piece of greenery in someone’s home, it’s a contribution to the planet’s well-being.
Of course, the early days were anything but easy. The picture of entrepreneurship people see on social media, the freedom, the flexibility, the glow of success, was far from our reality. We worked late into the night building the website and managing orders. Our weekends were spent delivering plants, and lunch breaks became packing sessions. I didn’t quit my corporate job until a year in, and Karli made the difficult decision to leave her position two years later, still
dealing with her injury and still determined to make this work.

INSPIRING STORY
There were countless moments of doubt. We faced stock shortages, website crashes, delivery delays, and the kind of exhaustion that seeps into your bones. But through it all, there was a quiet, steady sense of purpose, a belief that we were growing something that mattered. Not just a business, but a way of living that aligned with our values and hopes for the world. What ultimately helped us succeed wasn’t a detailed business plan or a big investment. It wasn’t luck, either. It was our attitude. We decided early on to treat every obstacle as a teacher. To believe that good things take time, that effort compounds, and that kindness, toward the planet and toward people, has a way of circling back. Gradually, our small venture began to flourish. Orders started coming in more consistently, and customers began sharing photos of their thriving gardens, spaces brought to life with green abundance. We held fast to the belief that good things take time to grow. That our effort meant something. That by helping people and the planet, goodness would find its way back to us. And it did.

INSPIRING STORY
Now, years on, we often pause to reflect on how far this journey has taken us. What began in our living room has blossomed into a thriving business that champions conservation, supports local growers, and brings together a vibrant community of plant lovers who share a deep respect for the planet. Beyond the growth and success, it has given us something truly special, a renewed sense of purpose and connection to what matters most. The most important lesson we’ve learned along the way is that life will knock you off track so you can find the right one. When everything falls apart, it’s easy to see it as punishment. But often, it’s a gift in disguise, a nudge from the universe asking you to grow in a new direction. So if you’re standing at a crossroads, unsure of what’s next, remember that you don’t have to see the entire path ahead. You only need to take the next step. The rest reveals itself in time, in ways you can’t yet imagine. Because sometimes, what begins as a single plant on a kitchen table can grow into something much larger, a business, a purpose, a forest. And when you nurture something with patience and heart, it doesn’t just grow roots in the ground. It grows roots in you.

The Healing Current wakening the Energy Within
There is a quiet intelligence that moves through all things, a subtle current of life that animates the trees, the oceans, and the beating of your own heart. This same current flows through you, and when it becomes blocked or depleted, the body, mind, and spirit begin to lose their natural harmony. Energy healing is the art of restoring that flow, allowing your system to remember its own innate rhythm of balance and vitality. Many people first encounter energy healing during a moment of exhaustion, illness, or emotional turmoil. Western medicine may soothe the symptoms, but energy work speaks to something deeper, the invisible architecture beneath our physical form. Every emotion, thought, and experience leaves an energetic imprint. When love, joy, and purpose are present, the energy body expands and glows. When fear, grief, or resentment linger, the flow constricts. Over time, these subtle distortions can manifest as fatigue, stress, or even pain.

But energy healing does not belong only to practitioners or mystics. Every person carries the ability to channel healing energy, whether they know it or not. You have likely placed your hand over your heart when sad, or on someone’s shoulder to comfort
them, instinctive acts of transmitting life force. By
becoming more conscious of this ability, you can begin to work with it intentionally. Breathing deeply, centering yourself, and inviting the energy of love to flow through your palms can create a profound shift, both in yourself and in others.
Sceptics often ask how something invisible can create real change, yet science has begun to catch up to ancient knowing. Studies on Reiki and other forms of biofield therapy suggest that these practices may lower stress hormones, balance the nervous system, and promote emotional well-being. More importantly, countless personal stories affirm what science is still learning to measure, that there is a force within and around us that responds to awareness, compassion, and intention.

The beauty of energy healing is that it honours the whole being. It recognises that health is not only the absence of disease but the presence of harmony between body, mind, and spirit. When energy flows freely, the heart softens, the mind clears, and the body begins to heal itself. It is less about adding something new and more about releasing what no longer serves like fear, doubt, or stagnant emotion, until only light remains.
As you begin to work with energy, whether through meditation, Reiki, prayer, or simple presence, you may find that healing extends far beyond the personal. The calm you cultivate ripples outward, influencing everyone and everything around you. Just as one candle can light many others without losing its own flame, one person radiating peace contributes to the healing of the world. Energy healing is a gentle reminder that we are not separate from the source of life. The same force that turns the stars also beats within your chest. When you quiet the mind and open the heart, that force moves through you, cleansing, balancing, and renewing. Healing, then, is not something that happens to you, it is something that awakens from within.

NATURAL REMEDIES
ANTI-PARASITE SMOOTHIE PUMPKIN SEED
Pumpkin seeds are a traditional natural remedy for eliminating intestinal parasites. They contain a compound called cucurbitacin, which can paralyze worms and prevent them from attaching to the intestinal walls, allowing the body to naturally expel them. Rich in nutrients and gentle on the digestive system, pumpkin seeds have been used for centuries in many cultures to help cleanse the intestines of tapeworms and roundworms. While not as strong as prescription antiparasitic medications, eating raw pumpkin seeds can support overall gut health and serve as a natural aid in parasite removal when combined with a healthy diet and good hygiene.
INGREDIENTS:
INSTRUCTIONS:
½ cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas) — paralyzes and expels parasites (rich in cucurbitacin) ½ cup fresh pineapple or papaya — contains enzymes (bromelain & papain) that help break down parasite coatings
Add all ingredients to a blender.
Blend until smooth.
Drink it on an empty stomach in the morning.
Wait about 1 hour before eating anything else.
1 small clove of raw garlic — natural antiparasitic and antibacterial
Juice of ½ lemon — helps detoxify and alkalize the gut
Handful of fresh parsley or cilantro — helps remove toxins and metals that parasites thrive on
1 cup coconut water or plain water — hydrating and supports digestion
(Optional) 1 teaspoon raw honey — adds taste and has antimicrobial properties

GOOD READS
/ A gripping and emotionally charged story about love, sacrifice, and an impossible decision. After a near-death experience, Laura wakes up with a mysterious and life-altering ability. She can heal others. But every healing comes at a cost. Her body grows weaker. Her health fades. And with each life she saves, she edges closer to the end of her own. Just as she begins to question how much more she can endure, her world collapses. Both her husband and her young daughter fall critically ill. Laura knows she can save one of them, but not both. And doing so will end her own life. Now she faces a choice no one should ever have to make. One life. One final act. And two people she cannot bear to lose. Raw, suspenseful, and deeply human, this novel explores how far we are willing to go for the people we love, and what it truly means to give everything.

Everyone who gets on the plane will get off the plane. But almost all of them will be changed forever. Because on this ordinary flight, something extraordinary happens. 'A lady', unremarkable until she isn't, predicts how and when many of the passengers are going to die. For some, death is far in the future; for others, it is very close.
