Have you ever felt like you’ve forgotten who you truly are?
Like the noise of the world has buried your inner wisdom beneath layers of fear, doubt, and expectation?
I know that feeling — I’ve lived it. And I also know this: within each of us lives a quiet, steady presence — a power that cannot be broken, outsourced, or diminished.
That power is yours. And my workshop, A Transformational Journey: Sacred Awareness in Action, based on my chapter “Face Your Demons — Reclaiming Sacred Power” in The Wellness Universe Guide to Complete Self-Care, is designed to help you remember it. Together, we’ll explore how spiritual awareness can awaken you to the power of your being and help you create your life intentionally. When you understand how your beliefs, definitions, and interpretations shape your experiences, you can finally step out of unconscious patterns and reclaim your role as the creator of your reality.
Why Spiritual Awareness Matters
In avoiding unwanted realities, we unknowingly diminish our sense of self — and with it, our power to create what we truly desire. Early experiences wired my nervous system to respond with heightened activation. The underlying limiting belief that I needed to self-protect to avoid emotional and physical harm kept me spinning the same stories. It robbed me of the beauty that comes from living in the present moment. But spiritual awareness — the ability to sense the deeper truth beneath appearances — changed everything.
This shift didn’t happen overnight. Awakening to the power of my being affirmed what I had long understood intellectually but struggled to embody. My breakthrough came when I made a life-altering yet straightforward decision: To breathe past anything that interfered with thinking, feeling, or acting as the God-creator we all are.
That choice became the doorway to a new way of living — one rooted in awareness, trust, and presence. It’s a practice of returning, again and again, to the greatest truth of who we are, not a one-time revelation.
Reclaiming Sacred Power
Many of us relinquish our power to old wounds, outside expectations, and beliefs that say life is a struggle. One of my turning points came when I faced the belief that being authentically myself would result in something terrible. I carried fears that my voice would anger others, leading to rejection, punishment, or withdrawal of love. For years, quiet, corrosive beliefs shaped my choices. Some days, I stopped running. Exhausted from bracing against the fear, I sat with the familiar discomfort, often with a pounding heart — and asked:
“What if the truth is, however I define it?”
In those moments, I realized my fear wasn’t a monster to defeat but a messenger pointing to where I had forgotten my power. Reclaiming my sacred self continues to be a steady, moment-by-moment process that allows me to embody what my soul already knows to be true. We have a choice to stand fully in our being, to stop shrinking, and to live from the truth of our divine essence. Perfectly imperfect, yet free.
What Awaits You
In this workshop, I’ll share personal stories and practical tools that you can carry into your daily life. Like one of my college professors, who wove unexpected anecdotes into every lecture, I’ll offer teachings wrapped in stories — anchors you’ll remember long after our time together.
You’ll receive tools that help you move beyond knowing spiritual truths into actually embodying them. Together, we’ll explore ways to:
- Remember Who You Are ~ Reconnect with your essence beneath fear, comparison, or expectations.
- Be a Free Thinker ~ Rise above external pressures and claim your authentic voice.
- Let Go of Resistance ~ Soften, allow all to be as it is, and open yourself to flow.
- Awaken to the Power of Your Being ~ Know that the energetic ‘no’ is enough to shift your attention away from what is undesired.
- Know Yourself as a Creator ~ Embody your power by directing your focus toward what you wish to grow.
You’ll leave not only inspired, but equipped — ready to live with more clarity, trust, and inner strength. I intend to help you walk away from our session with these benefits:
- * Greater ease in releasing the grip of past stories, and align with your Higher Self.
- * A new way to narrate your life with authenticity and strength, free from the constraints of fear and old conditioning.
- * A softening of resistance that impacts knowing your intrinsic worth.
Answering the Call
We are each a unique light — a powerful thread connected to a sacred source. Creation begins long before we see its effects, and through spiritual awareness, we become conscious co-creators of our reality.
The stuff of life can pull us away from that connection, but your power has never left you. It’s simply waiting for reclamation.
My intention is not to give you answers, but to guide you back to your own knowing — to help you remember what has always been true:
You are powerful beyond measure. You always have been.
If you feel called to deepen your awareness, reclaim your sacred power, and embody the truth of who you are, I invite you to join me.
Mini Practice: A Glimpse Within
Before you go, here’s a simple practice from the workshop — a doorway into unconditional love:
- Take a slow, deep breath and rest your awareness on the heartfelt connections in your life.
- Expand your heart space by acknowledging all that you already have.
- Feel the countless ways your relationships bring love and value to your world.
- Sit fully in the energy of appreciation for all blessings — given and received.
- Remember these feeling states when your dial reads ‘fear’. Doing so will nudge you toward practicing spiritual awareness, even if you can’t immediately rekindle those feelings.
As your beliefs shift, so does your reality. Each moment of awareness brings you closer to living as the sacred power you already are.
