I have been on my spiritual journey now for 6 years. It has been the most interesting ride of my life. I went from being completely asleep in this world to awakening aspects of my being that I never knew were part of me. The journey itself has been both beautiful , inspiring and also the hardest.
I was never the person who had an idea of what I wanted to do as I got older, the only thing that felt good was helping people and knowing I could hold the space for individuals who were suffering. As beautiful and as kind as that sounds, it was my biggest curse in life. I suffered years of depression due to holding onto others’ suffering and never giving myself the chance to see how I could create happiness in my life.
On my 27th birthday everything shifted – my truth hit me in the face. I went from feeling empty, partying all the time, addictions, working two jobs and going to school thinking I was doing something productive; to being at home sick and alone. I cut the whole world off, left school and started connecting back to myself. Although, I had no clue what connecting to myself would bring…
I started getting back into meditation. I remember being a small kid at age 8 sitting and breathing. I grew up in a very chaotic european home, where yelling and arguments were a constant norm. Breathing and meditating was the only thing I had as a kid to help keep me safe. That part of me sitting and closing my eyes while breathing made me feel like a kid again. I remember also being very psychic my whole life, getting insights, intuitive messages and communicating to people who had crossed over. Meditation connected me back to my guides and once that happened the true me started to remember the feeling of being supported through my journey.
My childhood was a mess, but my journey taught me to connect to my intuition and through that I learned how to heal myself. I was guided through meditations, connecting with Angels, Reiki and so much more. I started giving free readings to family and friends and before I knew it, I was inspired to help people. I FINALLY felt like I had purpose and the feelings of joy flooded my world when people started reaching out to me. I decided to take the biggest risk of my life and start helping people full time.
My life is this, and I wouldn’t change it for the world. This journey is not the easiest but it is the most authentic as long as you do the work! This is a process of committing to yourself above everything else and everyone else. The scariest risk you will ever take! Maybe its time you started taking a risk and explored your emotional traumas to find your personal journey. You don’t need to be spiritual but it does help if you find a way to connect back to your truth…maybe this is you!
I often get asked what is my daily practice, do I meditate or do I use Mantras or affirmations? I would like to share with you some of my daily Mantras and practices, that are easy to incorporate in day to day life. One thing I do not add to my practice is affirmations, …
When Ivana from @hellonamad approached me about wanting to dive deeper into understanding spiritual principles, themes and just over all self- love I was extremely excited.

A letter to my mom.. From the moment I chose you to be my mother I knew that we would have to learn from each other. You carried me in your womb and you were so young, you had fear of being a mother and had no idea what unconditional love felt like. You suffered …
During the last few weeks of being home in self isolation, I’ve been deepening my connection and listening through silent contemplation, the thoughts of the collective consciousness. The waves of silent emotions are overwhelming. I can feel the impact that loss of connection has created. That we created. Our busyness had already caused us to …
