“We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are” Talmud
Everyone has a story, right? My story began when I left the warm womb of my beloved mother. It was cold and I would’ve preferred to stay inside ~ but Creator told my soul:
YOU’VE GOT WORK TO DO!
Being spiritual in a human body caused me to wonder ~ am I the only one living in the question? It appeared to me that my family didn’t seem to be inquisitive or interested in deeper meaning to life and their simplicity drove me to wonder: What is life all about? I’ve been pondering this question with ongoing answers of truthful awakenings, abundant shifts, gifts and blessings.
Life shifted dramatically for me in 1992, when my husband, 2 young children and I lost our home to Hurricane Andrew. I found myself searching for deeper meaning through the “often hidden”, but most revealing Voice of Shechinah. Shechinah is the “divine feminine hebrew Goddess” spoken of within Orthodox Judaism and Kabbalah. We lived as orthodox jews and my questions grew larger as I would hide being a co-dependent to my addicted husband during the 21+year marriage. In 2005, my marriage began to fall apart and I dropped all my beliefs to discover what I should do with the Voice of Shechinah. I would end up meeting a Rabbi who Ordained me on Mothers Day of 2009. Since that time, the Voice of Shechinah speaks through compassionate and awakening of heart and soul.
Along my path, I have worked with millionaires, philanthropists, doctors, lawyers and also as (former) co-owner in a own gold, silver, diamond and fine watch business for 30+ years. I offer several gifts, utilizing my business strengths which involve “conscious finance”, business integrity and Shechinah healings. Shechinah has a sensual side which Orthodox Judaism doesn’t explain.
I got involved in sensual energy work was when I learning “jewish energy healing”. One session I had with a male client who was impotent for 9 years, felt an erection the next day after working with me and I knew Shechinah was the reason. I kept clearing and clearing the energy and realized my own “rape” in my early teens would transform and ascend me further into Shechinah’s blessings.
Through my flesh I see G-d. Job 19:26
Pain transformed is wisdom, if one is willing to do their spiritual work. I guess you could say that I’ve had my share of pain and that I’ve delved beneath the conscious and subconscious mind to get to the core of myself and be of service to humanity. I wouldn’t be working as a healer, if I didn’t have to go through the arduous task of falling down and picking myself up on the path to enlightenment of soul and mind.
A healing heart is life for flesh; but anger is rot for the bones. Proverbs: 14:30
I was chosen to heal, to help others heal. My book Seven Steps to a Peaceful Heart after Divorce supports others through this painful time. My Self Mastery courses help with the questions of your life. My certifications for numerous holistic healing styles including Jewish Energy Healing, the Gaidon Heart, Kundalini Yoga, Matrix Ascension, Mystical QiGong, Life Coaching, Daoist Healing, various tantric teachings and my Rabbinical Ordination.
