It takes tremendous amounts of energy and courage to start something new, to make a change or look fear in the eye.
During times of change and transition, it is crucial to have an anchor within yourself. To be grounded and centered from within.
Think of a strong tree. When shi(f)t happens, it may bend, it may sway. Yet, it doesn’t break. I love this metaphor, because inner-focused practices like Reiki help us build strength and resilience from the inside out. Valuable support for when the winds of change blow – whether we’ve initiated the change or change happens for us.
Being aware of how change and energy affect us is such an important and valuable skill. Carolyn Caldwell, who inspires and empowers busy and professional women to declutter their lives, and I have kept this conversation going for 4 years now… so much so that we are planning a podcast together. Since we both prioritize mindfulness and mental health, we’re not in the rushing business – and support each other as this process of starting something new unfolds.
“Working with Andrea has provided me with so much more than I was expecting. As a Highly Sensitive Person, I am very sensitive to the energy around me and the degree of calm, or chaos, that exists in my day to day world. Prior to working with Andrea, some days were just too chaotic for words and I would be drained and overwhelmed.
Andrea taught me how my energy levels are influenced by external factors, such as changes in weather, current events, and other people. She taught me about energy hygiene and the need for self-care and compassion. She also reinforced the need to be aware of what was going on around me so that I can manage my schedule and keep myself in the highest functional state possible.
I am so grateful for Andrea’s calm and compassionate support. Working with her has been significant in my recent personal and business success.”
