From Overwhelm to Empowerment: Energy Management for Highly Sensitive People
If you’re an empath or a highly sensitive person, you know the challenges of staying grounded and avoiding overwhelm when you’re around large groups of people, or in situations that you find challenging. It is important to know that there’s a balance between protecting our energy while staying energetically engaged with the world. And that…

Gaining a Shamanic Spirit Partner, Part 3
Becoming Major Greene This is the third part of a multi-part article series on how I was bonded to my shamanic spirit partner and energetic twin flame.

Getting to the Root of Healing with Tarot
I created a new tarot spread to help track the root cause of illness, injury, blockage, or other physical or energetic unbalance.
