Taking back whats mine

   I have always been attracted to herbs and nature and wholistic healing. I can remember watching a show as a kid about someone that was an empathic healer and I told myself at that time that I was one of those. In the show the women would absorb what was ailing others into her body and heal it in her body and after doing this for many years her body was finally unable to heal itself any more and she got very ill. I was determined to do what she had done without getting sick. I new that I had an innate skill for healing but was not sure how that would transform into a job or career that I would have passion for. I came to california looking for a new perspective and I certainly got it. I went to massage school and from there started getting introduced to some amazing healers here in the bay area.I met chiropractors that studied neurology and network chiropractors and I met an acupressure master who was healing patients from cancer. I met herbalists and shamans, I met amazing psychologists, wonderful bodyworkers ,acupuncturists, and yoga teachers. I needed to learn to heal myself first if I was going to be there for others.  Through the help,knowledge and wisdom of all these practitioners I was on my path to self discovery and healing. I held all this knowledge in me and went back to school for a masters in acupuncture, where once again I took an even deeper look at myself and continued to heal. I have slowly and in the right time began to awaken into this healer that I knew I would be even as a child. I finally believe in myself and have gained the confidence to be my true self. I am able to appreciate all my different facets with little to no judgement,It is such a great feeling. Marching on to the beat of my own drum!!
