🔥 WHAT HAPPENS TO MY BODY WHEN I DO HEALING? 🔥

Today I'm sharing something I don't often talk about.

After finishing a full day of healings and readings at the Wigan Wellbeing Festival, I looked back at my smartwatch data and noticed something fascinating.

The first image shows my appointment schedule.

The second and third images show my heart rate throughout the day.

What many people don't realise is that during my healing sessions, the client is seated comfortably in a massage chair while I stand behind them. I scan, sense, channel and work within their energy field without physically touching them.

I am not exercising.

I am not running around.

I am simply doing the work that I have been called to do.

Yet during the hours I was delivering healings and readings, my heart rate remained elevated, with noticeable spikes throughout the day.

What the graph cannot show is what I was experiencing.

During several healing sessions, my left hand became intensely hot and started shaking. Some clients commented on the warmth they could feel coming from my hands. I could feel emotions, sensations and messages coming through with incredible clarity, and the healings felt deeply powerful.

By the end of the day, I was completely exhausted... yet still buzzing with energy.

Whether you see healing as energy work, intuition, resonance, or something we don't yet fully understand, my body clearly responds when I step into this work.

Healing isn't simply standing beside someone.

It requires presence.

It requires trust.

It requires focus.

It requires me to become fully attuned to the person in front of me.

When I offer healing, I don't do it halfway.

I give my full attention, my full heart and my full energy to every person who sits in that chair.

The readings were incredibly accurate.

The healings were profound.

The connections were beautiful.

And once again, I was reminded that healing is not just something I do.

It is something I experience.

Thank you to everyone who trusted me with their healing, their stories and their energy today. It was an honour to hold space for each and every one of you. 💜🐉

💜 What a day! 💜

I honestly don't know where to begin.

Today at the Wigan Wellbeing Festival I met so many wonderful people. Some came for readings, some for healing sessions, some purchased crystals, lucky dips, books, and gifts, and many simply stopped by for a chat.

To every single person who visited my stand, trusted me with a reading or healing, supported my small business, or shared a smile and a conversation... thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️

You made my day absolutely amazing.

I am sitting here this evening feeling incredibly grateful, uplifted, and full of joy. I think the adrenaline is still running through my veins because I can't stop smiling. 😊

Days like today remind me why I love what I do.

If you had a reading, healing, or experience with me today, I would be so grateful if you could take a moment to leave an honest review on my page. Reviews really do help small businesses like mine grow and help others find the support they may be looking for.

Thank you for your trust, your kindness, and your support.

With gratitude,

💗 Day 13 Complete 💗

Yesterday, I went out twice.
Not because I had to. Because I wanted to.

After a few slower days, it felt good to get outside, move my body and breathe in some fresh air.

And then nature gave me a little gift.
I spotted several wild bunnies in the field near my home. 🐰💗
They were far away, happily doing bunny things, completely unaware that they had just made my day.

This challenge isn't just about walking 100 miles for Refuge.
It's about reconnecting with the things that help me feel alive.
Fresh air. Nature. Movement. Moments of peace.

Some days I walk like a warrior. Some days I walk like a snail.
Yesterday, I was a happy snail watching bunnies. 🐌🐰

Every step counts. Every mile counts. Every day counts.
And yesterday was another step closer to my goal.

🎵 I'm Still Standing.

💗 My Story – Part 4 💗

When I moved from Brazil to Portugal in 1988, I struggled to fit in.

I was bullied because of my accent. I was bullied because I was different. I was bullied because I was still a virgin.

I was only 12 years old.

In May 1989, a 17-year-old boy entered my life.

At that age, five years feels like a lifetime.

I wanted to fit in. I wanted to be accepted. I wanted to belong.

Instead, I experienced something that would leave a mark on me for many years.

What should have been a moment of trust became a moment of fear, pain and confusion.

For a long time, I blamed myself.

For a long time, I carried shame that never belonged to me.

Only as an adult did I begin to understand that children are not responsible for the actions of older teenagers or adults.

When a child says no, that should be enough.

When a child says stop, that should be enough.

Children deserve protection. Children deserve respect. Children deserve safety.

Looking back now, I don't see a girl who made bad choices.

I see a vulnerable 12-year-old child who was trying to find acceptance in a world that had already taught her too much about pain.

The child I was deserved better.

💗 Day 12 – Slow Progress Is Still Progress 💗

Yesterday wasn't a record-breaking day, but it was another step forward.

I was flaring up, exhausted, and had planned to spend the day at home resting. Some days with fibromyalgia, that's exactly what your body needs.

But when the sun finally broke through the clouds, I felt the pull of the woods behind my home.

I needed fresh air.
I needed nature.
I needed space to breathe and clear my head.

So I put on my shoes and went for a gentle walk.

This challenge is teaching me something important:

Progress doesn't always happen in giant leaps.

Sometimes it happens quietly.
One walk.
One mile.
One day at a time.

As of yesterday, I have completed 36.22 miles of my 100 Miles in June challenge for Refuge.

That means there are 63.78 miles still to go.

I'm still moving forward, even on the slower days.

🐌 Slowly.
💗 Steadily.
🚶‍♀️ Still going.

If there's a charity or cause close to your heart, please support it in whatever way you can. Every act of kindness matters.

I've been in a Fibromyalgia flare since Wednesday.

Yesterday, I made the decision not to attend an event in Manchester today.

Not because I didn't want to go.
Not because it wasn't important.

But because I've learned to recognise the signs.

The exhaustion was building.
The pain was increasing.
The brain fog was creeping in.
My body was telling me it needed rest.

For years I would have pushed through and gone anyway.

Now I understand that self-care isn't about bubble baths and face masks.

Sometimes self-care is listening when your body whispers, so it doesn't have to scream.

Today I'm focusing on admin from home, taking things slowly, and giving myself permission to rest without guilt.

If you're living with a chronic illness, remember this:

Rest isn't giving up.
Rest is part of the treatment. 💜
