Veronica is trained in several different healing arts.   She combines all of her knowledge into a comprehensive style of energy healing provides a unique style of support.

From Veronica -“My healing journey started when I recognized that I had the ability to direct my destiny. In an abusive relationship, and quite unwell, I decided that healing was my own responsibility. Author Louise Hay introduced me to the idea that I was the most powerful factor in my health and well-being. Since this time I have approached all of my life as a healing journey, both for myself and for those whose lives I touch.”

Transformational healing impacts all areas of your life!  It can directly change your perceptions of the world and of events in your life. Change your perceptions and you change your world. You too can change your world; release patterns that have held you back and open yourself to  the energetic healing available to each of us.  Veronica would love to walk this journey with you.

Always put on your oxygen mask first

June 2018

Summer is upon us and things can get hectic and overwhelming with the change in schedules, kids home for the summer and holiday plans often asking us to work harder to get some time off. This is a time when we need to be sure we take extra care of ourselves. More importantly that to ensure we plan that self-care. It is too easy to forget just how important your own care is in the hustle and bustle of life. Here are a few quick and easy self-care ideas to support you.

Take time each day to breathe. I know we all breathe…but I mean really breathe. Engaging the diaphragm and giving our bodies an opportunity to reset. One of the most common problems with our breathing is that is remains shallow, and this ensures that we stay stressed and almost driven by panic. Shallow breathing keeps our limbic system active and in turn reduces both our intelligence and response possibilities. Diaphragmatic breathing is simple, however requires thought and practice. To do this we focus only on the exhale, long slow exhale pushing our breath out and activating the diaphragm to squeeze our lungs, to empty them completely. The tension created here cannot stay, and this encourages a full and complete inhale. This process begins to create good hormones in our bodies, which counteract the harmful ones produced with stress. A few deep diaphragmatic breaths can gently reset our body and open up possibilities for our mind to move through any stress or overwhelm.

Grounding is also very valuable. We all spend a lot of time ‘in our heads”, and grounding helps us to get back into our body. The simple process of tuning into our bodies, checking in on how it feels, and then breathing into spaces that are feeling tight or tense can shift how we feel immensely.Taking a few minutes each day to visualize ourselves connecting with this planet, or even better to commit to a little “earthing” each day. “Earthing” is the concept of having our bodies actually connect with the planet. A few minutes walking barefoot, or sitting with our back to a tree and letting these energetic masters help us to revive our energy by connecting with the planet. Getting into nature is another very easy way to “earth” ourselves into a state of relaxation, and support our bodies to fill up and rejuvenate.

A simple dip in some salt water is also a very useful way to help our bodies to reset. This can be a wonderful dip in an ocean, if your plans allow for it, or just finding some salt-water options.

Some pools and hot tubs have made the transition. However, the most reliable is a salt-water bath. This helps to relieve the body of lactic acid and soothes soreness. Even better is it helps the body to detoxify and reset. Adding a couple of drops of pure essential oil, soothing music and a locked door (every parent of young children knows how precious that can be) can quickly and easily create a reset for your body.

The most beautiful thing about each of these ideas is that we can actually spend some time to teach our children to do this as well. Helping them learn to breathe, especially when they have gotten stressed or anxious. Spending a few minutes outdoors or in nature, maybe even getting a little dirty and playing in the earth is wonderful for them. Adding a little salt to their bath time and a drop of lavender can help them both reset, and support them in a restful sleep. However, the most important way to support our children is to model self-care. They are quick to notice the things that we do, and copy them. Learning how to bring calm to yourself, will show them exactly how to do it for themselves.

Here’s to the best summer of your life so far!

 

You can’t unpick a pickle

February 2018

Today we are bombarded on a daily basis with media messages and cultural and social expectations, which due to our psychological make up, work very well on the human brain to encourage (force) us to think in certain ways. This is especially true of our children. Daily they are given overt and covert expectations, which of course they do their very best to live up to.  This brine of social and cultural expectations slowly “pickles” us into imagining that we are not good enough, not valuable, not worthy of love and attention unless we do as we are expected to. These pressures are affecting our youth.
So how do you support your children in this world filled with messages that lead them to believe they just are not enough the way they are? What is important to know is that as parents we cannot completely reverse the impact of our environment, we cannot un-pickle their minds which have been soaking in this media soup, however, we can show them that they are amazing even if they do not match what society asks of them. Conversation and reassurance are very important as they grow and learn about themselves in this age of technology.

Loving our children, and offering them spaces to be themselves is so very important. Limiting social media and technology, although valuable, is often not going to rescue them. There is not any way to escape the messages they are embedded in everything. The school and its teaching environment, friendships, every commercial, every billboard, every song, and the list can continue. So how can we help them? Some of the most valuable ways to offer love is to encourage critical thinking, and collaborative exploration, to remind them of their innate wisdom, and the power they have to create their perspective. When our children identify something they think, rather than just offering another viewpoint to add to their list of viewpoints, it can be very valuable to engage them and ask them why they think that. Help them see where they collected their belief from, whether it is social media, or the cultural climate. Then ask them to identify what they really think about the matter, if they did not have these influences. Know that they are amazing and brilliant beings that absolutely know things, and that when they are encouraged to examine out of the box thinking, they really do know better than what society gives them. At the core, we are all beings of love and light and if reminded of this it becomes much easier to cope with the daily pickling process that is our culture.

Some conversation starters that can encourage a critical eye:

• That is interesting, do you think that makes sense?
• I wonder why that would happen.  What do you think?
• There are so many beautiful types of bodies, why do you think media wants us to all look the same?
• That sounds very frustrating, have you noticed a pattern?
• What makes her/his opinion so much more important than your opinion?  What is your opinion?
• If you can change _______ what would you want different?

Why?

I have found that working with youth clients supports their growth and confidence. It is so valuable to spend a little time while they are young building their esteem and faith in themselves, rather than years later undoing the damage caused by the pickling process. Their profound insights and amazing instincts surprise me all the time. These young people are literally the future, creating a generation of compassionate and strong-minded individuals who can think for themselves will give us all confidence.

 

I would love to hear from you!
