๐ฅ **A Spirit Fire Update** ๐ฅ
There have been a lot of changes in my life over the past year.
I ended my marriage after 23 years. I began a new relationship and started building a completely different life. I spent months so sick that there were days I could barely get out of bed. Then, while still trying to regain my footing, my father passed away.
It has been a lot โ physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Recently, I was offered the option to cancel the lease for the Berkeley Springs office. I was given several reasons behind that decision. Some of those reasons, quite frankly, I strongly disagree with, and I have documentation that supports my position.
People are free to believe whatever they choose, but I know the history. I have held leases in that building for almost nine years โ at one point maintaining two separate spaces in the same building until January of this year. Were there difficult periods along the way? Absolutely. Life happens. But things were always ultimately taken care of.
After everything I have already carried this year, I made the decision to accept the lease cancellation rather than continue fighting something that was costing me even more peace and energy.
Sometimes choosing yourself means knowing when to stop fighting a battle that no longer deserves you.
As a result, **I will no longer be booking new in-person appointments at the Berkeley Springs office.** Any appointments that are already scheduled will absolutely be honored as booked.
After that, I am going to take some much-needed time to rest, recalibrate, clear my head, and figure out exactly what the next chapter of Spirit Fire is supposed to look like.
โจ Spirit Fire is **not disappearing.**
I am currently working on expanding **distance Reiki/healing and other virtual services**, and I am already set up to offer **online tarot readings and spiritual guidance through video sessions.**
Eventually, I fully intend to return to an in-person office. At this point, **Martinsburg is the most likely location**, although I am open to considering other areas if the right opportunity presents itself.
Spirit Fire has changed forms before, and it can change forms again.
This past year has taught me that sometimes the crossroads we never asked for are the ones that completely redirect our lives.
For now, I am choosing peace. I am choosing healing. I am choosing to give myself permission to regroup instead of immediately forcing myself into the next thing.
Thank you to every client, friend, supporter, and member of the Spirit Fire community who has continued to stand beside me through all of these transitions. Your support means more than you know. ๐ค๐ฅ
This is not the end of Spirit Fire.
It is simply another transformation.
