If you can feel it, you can heal it.
How body consciousness helped me heal skin cancer.
I was working as a lawyer in one of the biggest law firms in the world. Nice colleagues, super challenging work but also: long days at the office and a lot of stress. I lived merely from my head/mind and I was totally not connected with my body.
And that came with a price.
My body started to give subtle hints: frequent headaches, the feeling of a heavy stone in my stomach, extreme tiredness. I didn’t listen. Grabbed another coffee, took a pain killer and ran to the next meeting.
Until it hit me.
I was lying down in bed, it went black before my eyes and I saw stars. I went to the doctor for a check-up and decided to get my moles checked while I was there. An appointment with the dermatologist followed soon and there it was: I was diagnosed with severe skin cancer.
After the first days of anxious thoughts, tears and disbelief I soon realized: something needed to change and it was up to me to break the cycle. A sigh of relief entered my body. I couldn’t run away anymore. The experience of skin cancer showed me that literally, I didn’t feel safe in my skin. I was so disconnected from myself, trying to be someone that I was not. Oh yes, I could play the role of a successful international lawyer. But for sure it was not my authentic self. Maybe someone else’s path, but not mine. My soul blueprint, the unique frequency with which I came into this world longed for a big U-turn. Yes, I needed to experience this, but now it was time to take my power back and confidently create my own world.
After an inner and outer journey of several years I found my way back to me. I started an education as an energetic therapist, and completed several energy healing courses and workshops in the Netherlands, and Bali. But most importantly: I strengthened my connection with the intuitive healer inside of me. I gave her space to evolve, released limiting believes and blockages, and let her flourish. I connected within, with my body and remembered my unique gift.
My journey helped me to realize how important it is to stay connected to my body. First my body whispered, “you’re out of balance”, then it started to scream. Your body speaks to you every day, and it’s up to you if you listen to it or not. For me it’s my compass, it shows me the way. A beautiful vehicle that allows me to explore life to the fullest. And I’ll never ever abandon it again.
I am immensely grateful for my journey. It led me to where I am now: living on the magical island of Ibiza, transferring healing energy and guiding people to reconnect with their body: their mental, emotional, physical and spiritual body. My soul goes YAY when I truly connect with people. My heart smiles when Universal Energy does its job. My eyes sparkle when I guide people to reconnect with themselves.
Curious how that works out for you? Let’s connect!
