ON BEING AN ENERGY HEALER AND A DIVA

And let’s face it, when one thinks of an energy healer, a vision of Diana Ross, or Cher, or Grace Jones does not come to your mind.  You probably picture an attractive middle aged woman, (most likely leaning against a tree trunk or sitting atop a mountain – at One with Mother Earth), organically aged, letting her grey grow in, maybe two long braids, puka beads around her neck draped over a linen pastel light blue kaftan (probably with some embroidery on it)  fitted not too loose and not too tight.  Just to say, “I am light, easy, and breezy.”  I like that image too, but that’s not me most of the time.  I am not always light, though I always bring light forward, I am DEFINITELY NOT easy, and the jury’s still out on “breezy”.  I’m not sure about Breezy at all.  Even when I’m in that outdoorsy mode, and I do love nature more and more with each passing day…the Diva says, “NO”, and it’s pretty firm when I hear her voice that asks, “Breeeeezy?”.  And I listen to her – to my Diva self.  That’s called honoring your shadow side.  The side that acknowledges the Diva inside of me. That acknowledges my lazy ass that does not want to go for a hike and sleep with the mosquitoes and slugs.  If I were to make one big SHARON DIVA, it would probably be a mix of Freddie Mercury, Marlon Brando, James Dean, Amelia Earhart, Joan of Arc, Mary Magdalene, and Tilda Swinton, and then magnified and amplified times 1 million.  But that’s just me.  So, don’t confuse me to be a Healer-Diva, but rather I am a healer and I am a diva, and the two don’t know each other that well, because frankly, the Diva would never show up to a Healer’s party, and the Healer would probably not be interested in the Diva’s party.  But believe it or not, I am starting to find a very good middle ground between the two. I would attend both parties. Call it glamping for the Diva and the Healer if they were to go together.  It IS possible, but not easy, and takes a lot of skill.  Ladies – come to terms with your Shadow side.  That’s the side that’s malicious, that’s jealous, that judges, that’s hypocritical, that’s vengeful and more…  And if you say you’re not any of those things, then you haven’t honestly looked at yourself in the mirror.  I’ve admittedly been all those women – Medusa, Medea, Persephone, but it’s the self-awareness that allows you to know they are inside of you.  It’s also self awareness that knows that these parts of you can shatter others with a mere look or a vindictive word.  So once we are aware that we have all those qualities (and they are qualities, not flaws), we also become aware of when and how to use them.  It’s called owning your shadow side.  Therefore, I allow myself to be a Diva and know I can also be a profound  and powerful healer.  That’s not me showing off.  We discover that there are endless ways to unleash the archetypes inside of us. That is me honoring a Divine gift from Above – and honor it I will.  Actually, in Quantum Touch Healing, you, the client, are the healer.  I just keep my vibration at its highest level possible, and your cells entrain or meet the energetic steppe of a brighter resonance.
