Energetic imprints are ‘the footprint’ of past experiences, inherited patterns, or unresolved wounds that, in shamanic traditions, are believed to become stored in the energy field.

By sensing and releasing these imprints, shamanic healing aims to restore the natural flow of energy, which in turns causes patterns, emotional heaviness, and feelings of being stuck gradually to dissolve.

You have set your intentions, received the healing, and taken the first step toward transformation. But what happens after you leave the practice or close your laptop?

The session may have come to a close, but the real journey is only beginning ✨

After 13 years of struggling with an eating disorder, I had tried everything - therapy, dieticians, and behavioural strategies - but nothing truly changed the underlying pattern. I could understand the advice intellectually, but I couldn’t shift the lived experience.

That changed when I began working with shamanic energy healing. Instead of analysing the problem, the work brought deeper emotional and energetic patterns to the surface. At first, things got worse; all control was lost and I went through an intense emotional release I didn’t even know was there. But underneath that, something was shifting. Then one day I woke up and the issue was gone.

In this blog post, I describe how I overcame the challenge through shamanic energy healing to illustrate how the process works.

After healing my eating disorder through shamanic energy healing, I turned my attention to the next pattern that blocked my life: the symptoms we call AD(H)D.

In this first part, I share what living with those symptoms actually felt like for me, why meds were not the solution, and how my first healing experience led me to question whether AD(H)D can be understood as an energetic pattern that can be healed.

The strange thing about healing is that, when you are in the midst of it, it can look like madness and decline. Nothing happened for months. Then everything got worse. In this second part, I share the stage of my healing journey during which my mental clutter and reliance on meds intensified, and the healing seemed to have failed. Then, after more than a year of struggle, from one day to the next, I quit and never looked back.

Three months after a powerful dream experience that led me to quit my meds, I felt that familiar ‘sweet’ inner knowing again that signals a chapter was ending. This time, it was my lifelong struggle with concentration. Through a combination of shamanic energy healing, parts work, and bodywork, the noise in my mind had lifted and it never came back.

If an intentional healing journey is part of your path in this life, then structure, direction and pace are crucial. Otherwise, the journey itself will be overwhelming, and the result ineffective.

This blog discusses the general order, in terms of urgency and effectiveness, one should follow when starting out healing areas of one’s life.

A relationship, a career opportunity, a stronger voice, a deeper sense of freedom, or a more alive version of yourself might be just around the corner.

What if what you long for is not missing, and it’s just simply blocked? This blog explores how to rid yourself of those blocks, so that life can flow again and take you into an exciting, new direction.

Only when your inner world is in alignment, you can utilize the power of your will.

Healing as understood here, is not the ‘decorative’ kind of healing that invokes images of journaling in a sunlit room while drinking herbal tea in a bathtub.

But what is healing then? And how do you ‘do it’?

‘Battling’ your old self requires more sophistication than brute forcing. Here’s what to do instead.

Most healing journeys do not begin from self-love or a conscious desire for evolution.
