Where is your North Star?

If you don’t know where you are headed, it’s possible you don’t know where you’ve been. This is a teaching from my elders about understanding ourselves and what we have been through so that we can move forward into our purpose in this life. It’s about knowing where we came from, where our ancestors were and how we honor them by walking softly on this Earth. It’s a long journey to get here when we are further removed from our Indignity but it’s not impossible to connect.

I was talking to a dear friend, sister and Reiki Master and she reminded me of the power of sharing our vulnerabilities. It wasn’t long ago that I felt lost too. I was not quite sure where I was headed even though I was about to enter my doctorate program—academically I was doing great, but emotionally, I was bursting with emotion. My sensitivities were so palpable that I would easily go into overwhelm and experience emotional outbursts. I felt as though the world was a loud place and it was hard for me to manage my emotions. My healing journey took me through lessons that helped me to understand myself and why I was so overwhelmed by the world. Some of us are sensitive to energy—why? Probably because we are healers and are meant to learn how to manage our energy—which is driven by our emotions. When our emotions are off kilter, our whole energy system and life—as well as our mind, spirit and body also go out of balance. When I started to follow that thread, following the energy of initiations, courses, experiences, work with plant medicines, meditation and mindfulness practices, yoga—everything I could get myself into that would help calm my nervous system. I realized it wasn’t just about the next thing, it was about embodying the life and the rhythms that honored my body, my spirit and soul and my mind in a harmonious way.

It starts with us! If you want to get on that path to following your North Star, join me on Sunday at 11am Pacific for a New Moon Meditation and Reiki Session on zoom. If you want to go deeper, join me for the 5 day challenge starting on Monday! If you want to truly connect with your North Star, sign up for the Keepers of The Fire Membership and get on the waitlist for an upcoming 4 week Reiki series. This is a powerful time to anchor into your light and stay under the guidance of your North Star.
