Mystic training began around the age of 5 when I would see + dream of spirits in my childhood home.  The experiences I had as a child led me to become a destructive teen.  My ancestors intervened by placing a zodiac book in my closet.  I dove headfirst into the starry waters.  I studied the outline of personalities for years +  began offering unsolicited comedic zodiac readings at the age of 17.  Eventually I was appreciated + sought out for them within my community.
Color therapy aligned with me at the age of 25.  While I worked as a nail technician, I began offering color medicine readings.  I encouraged specific colors be worn in order to create energetic pathways towards their wants + needs.
My mediumship abilities returned at the age of 28.
My mom took me to visit my great uncle who offers readings.  He told me about his mom + great grandparents, which validated my experiences since I was a kid.  
My ancestors offered healings and mystic readings, but learned to be quiet about their work to avoid judgement.  My great uncle told me that I would continue their work + help people.
 
After working with a catholic healer, I began offering color + medium readings at the age of 29.
I wanted to learn + heal myself as much as I could. 
I crossed paths with a local oracle/reiki master + I experienced my first reiki healing session. 
I met one of my spirit guides + it encouraged me to become Reiki 1 + 2 attuned.  
Reiki 2 triggered my medicine woman initiation.
I became extremely sensitive during this time.  I channeled the energy of the plants + food I ate.
I began to channel food medicine to heal the mind, body, emotion, + spirit during sessions.
I continued to learn through life experiences + from many medicine people during this stage of my life.
A peruvian shaman helped me heal my emotional body.  He also taught me how to ask for support.  
A modern 6th generation shaman helped me shed limiting thought patterns I was not aware of.  He helped me to understand the process of "energetic purging."  He also helped guide me into the completion of my initiation.  
I have learned the indigenous ways of healers from the Sierra Nevada of Colombia, Inca descendants, an Apache medicine woman, + Mayans in Guatemala.  
*Out of deep respect, I do not share what I learn from the indigenous in my sessions.
Realigning myself allows me to access deeper levels of wisdom within myself, which then allows me to access deeper perspectives in my connection with souls during sessions.
I adapt + learn often.
