I was recently told that because of my bluntness, I walk on the other side of the street of diplomacy. My reaction - The street of diplomacy? Ha! I'm more like a ninja, sneaking around and getting things done.

Surround yourself with positive people, happiness is contagious, but so is toxic positivity, don’t forget that

Optimism vs. Realism: Is an Overly Rosy Outlook Detrimental to Growth?
Toxic Positivity: Fact or Fiction? The concept of toxic positivity warrants examination. Do you endorse it? Does one's perspective encompass both the bright and dark aspects of life, or do they solely focus on a rosy outlook?

Using various instruments including alchemy crystal singing bowls, Euphonic array, kalimbas, sansulas, shakers, handpans, steel tongue drums, gongs, chimes, shruti box pro, my voice and so much more, thank you for allowing me the honour and privilege of supporting you on your healing journey.

The intention behind the sound that’s created is to do for one person what it’s done for me, and if that happens, my mission is accomplished. Perhaps the sound is the change for someone and they ripple it out to one person and that person ripples it out to another and so on.

Hi, I’m Rachel, an intuitive sound healing guide. My mission is to ripple out into the world all the things that you are searching for right now; plant seeds for when you’re ready to nurture them and grow & ground you no matter where you’re at along this journey called life.

Ruins of a gate house from a monastery in Ireland built in the 11th century. Still 3 stories high, no roof. Arch in the center. Walls are 3-5 feet think.

Just because people are going to people doesn’t make it right. #makebetterchoices
