Hi – I’m Jayne,
My entrance into the Shamanic realm and communicating with spirits feels different than many other Shamanic practitioners I know. I don’t remember seeing or hearing spirits as a child. While I have relatives with abilities (recently learned my Nana knew when someone died or was about to die), I never thought I had abilities myself. I now believe we all do.
In 2019 I was told by a trusted Seer / Medium that I was an empath. I had no idea what an empath was. After some research (comfortable left-brained person here), sure enough, I’m an empath. I just thought this was how everyone was wired. In the research, I found out that I’m also a HSP (highly sensitive person). This didn’t sit well with me. I saw it as a weakness. Then along came 2022, a very pivotal year for me. My Dad passed away in June 2022. He had dementia. There were beautiful moments. There were heart wrenching difficult moments. My sister and I were hoping Mom would bounce back and thrive as Dad’s dementia really took a toll on her. A few weeks after Dad passed away, Mom was in a lot of pain and went to the ER. She was full of cancer. She passed away six weeks later. Again, there were beautiful moments and heart wrenching moments. I am so grateful for the time I was able to spend with both of them before they transitioned. I was so fearful of death; however, being with both of them as they transitioned helped start a paradigm shift in my thoughts about death.
I decided to dedicate 2023 to spirituality. By no means am I anti-religious. I pray to God; however, something wasn’t working for me. I took a workshop on trusting my intuition at Golden Light Healing with Amy Wilinski. As part of a guided meditation / journey, I met one of my spirit guides! I wanted more. I saw another offering by the same instructor that met four times over a year. I really thought I was simply going to an in-depth seminar. Sure the title of it included Shamanism (Whispers on the Wind Shamanic Program), but I was focused on a few snippets of the description… ‘searching for the meaning of your life’, ‘deepen my connection with Mother Nature and the Divine’, and ‘life transforming journey’. I firmly believe my spiritual team was helping push me in this direction. If I knew what I was getting into, I would have been too fearful to enroll.
The program was hard work, and it came at the perfect time in my life… just as the universe intended (I went through an abundance of self-healing). I was blown away. I felt energy move through me! I was able to release heavy energy not serving me. I journeyed to the Shamanic lower, middle, and upper worlds. I was able to get messages and guidance from helping spirits for other people (information that I would have no way of knowing on my own). I learned how to be a conduit to help others release energy that was no longer serving them. It was truly transformational!
After graduating from the program in January 2024, I took some time for integration and deep reflection to help determine my next chapter. I retired in June 2024 from corporate life and decided to offer Shamanic sessions as a way to be in service to others utilizing my talents. As my husband lovingly calls me his ‘fragile flower’, I now embrace being an empath and HSP as a superpower.
I continue my dedication to leaning into spirituality. I’ve taken more Shamanic, mediumship, and Reiki courses. A pilgrimage to Peru in January 2025 solidified my belief that I’m on my right spiritual path. I look forward to working with you!
