my spiritual awakening

​​A couple of years ago, I realised that I have the gift of connecting to and receiving messages from spirit. I always wanted to believe that there was something more to life than what meets the human eye but I don’t think you can get proof unless you are able to experience the paranormal for yourself.  I’ve always had a fascination with the unexplained and remember my grandmother telling me all about her experiences. It turns out that her dad (my great grandfather) was a well known Psychic Medium in his day so had a feeling that something must have been passed through the family, but when I realised that I could actually speak with the spirit world for myself…it all became a whole lot more interesting!

​It all started after I went through some really awful trauma, the worst kind of heartbreak I have ever known. It opened up something in me that changed my whole perception on myself and on life, it completely flipped my old Atheist ways upside down to give me different views on the world. After finding my new self I decided to learn how to meditate, I needed a way to help clear my mind and surprisingly by doing this I opened up my senses to realise that I am clairaudient, clairsentient and clairvoyant. I have to admit it was probably the freakiest time of my life. I had somehow opened up this gateway to another world and there was no going back. My ears were popping and ringing from tuning into a higher frequency, everything seemed louder, I had intense headaches and then suddenly I was hearing a voice in my head. Honestly I thought I was having some kind of breakdown and needed to see a psychiatrist, but then I realised that this voice wasn’t nasty, it wasn’t telling me to do strange or bad things..it was just there!

​So I decided to talk to it, (as you do) the only way I can describe the experience is when you are having thoughts in your head, but for me there was someone else’s thoughts there too. So after a couple of weird chats going back and forth, I was then shown an image of a woman. Here’s how this works… I am going to say to you ‘think of a red balloon’ So now you have an image of a red balloon in your head right?. This is exactly how it works for me but spirit are putting the image there for me instead. (It is so hard to explain what it feels like if you have not experienced it for yourself). So with this image and a conversation which took place entirely in my head, I somehow worked out that the person I was talking to, was a 40 year old Greek woman named Anastasia (who I now know as my main spirit guide). Each time I get information through about something I will then do a Google search to check if it is correct, so I did a search to find out the origin of the name Anastasia because the only one I had ever heard of was the singer, and sure enough it is a Greek name. Still at this point I was wondering if I was losing my mind or not but then things got weirder..

​One afternoon a friend of mine (Paula) came round for a brew. (if you are not from the UK, this means having a good old cup of tea or coffee).  Her mum had sadly passed away a few months earlier and as we were sat there having a general chit chat about the bores of everyday life, my head started to feel like it was being squashed.  I zoned out, everything went fuzzy and it felt like there was an enormous amount of pressure on my head.  All of a sudden I thought ‘Mary is here’ (Paula’s mum) I didn’t say anything but I was so freaked out that I suddenly told my friend I needed to go out.  I hurried Paula out of the door and was left wondering what the hell had just happened, turns out Mary had popped by for a visit. After that day, all kinds of weird and wonderful things started happening and are still happening.  Since my first conversation with Anastasia, I have kept a diary which has all of my predictions and messages from spirit in.

​​I can’t go through the diary and tell you everything that has happened because there is so much, but I can give a couple of examples. Rick’s (my partner) Aunty Irene was ill and during 2018 she was gradually getting worse. Through September I was given the message that she was going to pass on right before Christmas. I really hoped that I was wrong but I told my partner anyway.  The week before Christmas came and I thought ‘thank god I got that wrong’ Unfortunately she died on the 22nd December. It was also my partners Aunty Irene who I heard from the other day.  Rick was away for the weekend and was planning his birthday family get together (about 2 and half hours away) I had a very strong message from her to ‘tell Rick I will be at his birthday’ I text him the message and he rang me back. Turns out, earlier that morning him and his daughter had a conversation about if Aunty Irene was going to be at the party or not (she had got the names mixed up with an aunty who is still living) he had said ‘no it will be a bit difficult seen as she isn’t alive anymore’.  She must have been listening and thought to herself ‘I most definitely will be at that party and wouldn't miss it for the world' Being able to pass messages on like this and to let people know that their loved ones are always with them is one of the best feelings in the world!

Since hearing my spirit guide Anastasia for the first time, lots of strange but amazing things have happened. The feeling of someone being in the room with me, messages in my head, visions, recurring numbers, seeing things out of the corner of my eye, ringing in my ears when spirit is near, things going missing then quickly reappearing and much more. At first it was a time where I thought I was losing my mind with all of the voices I was hearing, I have even lost friends through them thinking I was going mad but the people who truly matter to me have embraced my Spirituality and supported me all the way!  I am still extremely new to all of this communicating with the other side stuff, which is why I do not offer it as part of Bliss Healing, although it really does have its advantages when carrying out treatments such as Reiki. I remember one client from when I first started out as a Holistic Therapist where I was guided towards his stomach.  After the session I asked him if he had been experiencing any problems in that area, to which he replied he'd been having stomach pains for the last 3 days.  I am truly honoured to have been given such an amazing gift, and being able to pass messages on between the land of the living and the land of spirit is now a huge part of me that I never want to lose!.
