Meet Lesley
In 2014, I embarked on a journey of self awareness. A mom of 3, working full-time and managing the household schedules, I felt myself drowning physically and emotionally. I had spent 17 years in a social work career focusing my energy on helping others. And was being shown the signs that it was time to focus that energy inwards.
​
I began a practice of meditation, and enrolled in the 25 hour Learn to Teach Meditation Program, Learn to Teach Kids and Teens and the 200 hour Teacher Training, As I began to find a stillness with in me, the messages of spirit began to get clearer for me. I was led to Usui Reiki and for the first time, energy healing, daily practice of reiki and meditation, and allowing myself to open up to all possibilities.
I enrolled in a shamanic self healing program that opened my awareness to all the patterns, behaviours and perceptions that had became my way of coping. For years I had spent my life taking responsibilty for others healing, and I was learning to focus that attention back on myself. Healing the thoughts, patterns, behaviours and limited beliefs I had created to meet my need for safety. This journey has transformed my world, relationships and my perception of myself.
It has opened endless possibilities of of living a life of purpose. Allowing myself to open up to my vulnerabilities, leave my comfort zone, and live a life with awareness. Immersing myself in Family Constellation Therapy Training in 2022, was the missing piece to the puzzle. Exploring family patterns and somatic therapy to repair my nervous system, and observe patterns from a completely different perspective.
​
Many would say we come in to this world a blank slate, but I've come to learn just how untrue this statement is. The moment of our creation is precise and never by chance. And before we even meet our parents we have been downloaded with their ancestral DNA physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. And our own sacred agreements also play a large part of how we begin to see the world as we grow. My teachings has taught me that all of this is never permanent. That the greatest healing comes from awareness and choice. When we begin to do the medicine work we can choose to continue to live the patterns of our ancestors, or heal the path for our children to come. For me, the medicine work has created a strong commitment, to myself, my values, boundaries and connection to spirit. And by doing the work, a commitment to my ancestors and family to come. My philosophy is to have you see yourself, the way I already see you.
Your healed outcome already being played out. Through awareness you have a choice to create your life and Birth Your Medicine.
