During my 30s, I was slowly recovering from Bulimia and was very angry with my parents, blaming them for my insecurities that ‘caused’ all of my life’s woes, including an abusive marriage that took my Bulimia to a climax around the age of 30-32 before I eventually left him. Within a year, I began a new relationship with my ‘dream guy’.
At about 37, I read my first ‘spiritual’ book, Out on a Limb by Shirley McLean, which I discovered by ‘chance’, and couldn’t put down from complete fascination at the concepts covered. A year later, when I discovered through intuition that my ‘dream guy’ had an affair, a friend recommended I read You Can Heal Your Life, much of which I considered ‘bullshit’, especially the concept that I chose my parents in this life. I insisted that my partner end the affair as I was too insecure to end our relationship.
Two years later, he said he was leaving, later discovering he’d continued the affair and then another. He was apparently told to leave by a Reiki practitioner. I was furious, bitter, resentful and totally in victim mode. What is this Reiki thing? Is he mad? As synchronicity would have it, a weekend Reiki course caught my eye and my curiosity got me in, never to turn back.
I had much to learn about myself, energy fields and how the universe operates, and how my self-centeredness and victimhood had caused extremely high anxiety and stress in my life. Whilst I felt hard done by, the universe was gradually leading me to my path of destiny, bringing health-related jobs, within my field of education, my way that also included leadership opportunities.
My most magical moment would have been about a year later, after a fall on my tailbone during a hike resulting in forced rest. I was regularly practicing Reiki on myself and one morning ‘saw’ a Mary Magdalene type vision in my 3rd eye so knew there was a connection that I’d never dreamt possible.
Some years later, whilst giving Reiki to a friend in ER after a bicycle accident, I felt her pain as I channeled the healing energy to her so was convinced of the connections of our energy fields.
Since beginning Deborah’s program, my transformation has been enormous. I’m now much more outward focused, appreciating Mother Nature more than ever and sensing the unified field, thereby accepting wholeheartedly that we are all one energy field. My heart has opened. I am much more compassionate, patient, calm and accepting of others. My self-awareness has grown exponentially, such that I take much more responsibility for my life and its creations. I thoroughly recommend Deborah’s courses and the practice of energy healing and spirituality for developing expanded self-awareness, and a stronger sense of belonging, realizing and experiencing how we are all one and all connected.
