What better of a day than the sabbath to write a blog post about the word “witch.” If this makes you cringe, let’s move past your image of Salem in 1692.
Once, I hid in fear, fear that I would be judged. See, I live in a state with a very religious culture. I grew up in this culture and was a member of the organization.
I had a “faith” crisis after my daughter passed away from a heart defect in 2017. What I thought would bring me closer to my faith, sent me into a spiraling fall down the rabbit hole. I was filled with fear, questioning everything I had ever been taught about spirituality, god, my life before and after death. This is a very unsettling place to be.
I came across “energy” work by accident, but it really was divine intervention. At my first encounter, between my statistically driven mind and my anxiety, I felt completely overwhelmed. Plus, I was dealing with a past core belief of “there is only one true religion,” so I initially ran.
A few weeks later, a recommended book popped up on my social media newsfeed. I loved the title and bought it with no expectations. It changed my life. I could not fill my cup quick enough with the world of energy work, it was like my inner child sprang to life.
Yesterday, I came across a thumb drive containing videos with the social media platform I originally started out with after my daughter passed away and I was trying to figure out how to share my story as a means to smother my grief.
I stared at myself, my fake smile, I was also at my heaviest weight, the depression of delivering a baby and having her pass 26 days later was laced in my aura field. I see myself today, I have an unmistakable “glow” and my smile is completely sincere, I have bloomed.
Call it witchcraft, call it healing, call it whatever you like. I am an energy manipulator, I have learned how to talk to my subconscious mind. I have found joy away from organized religion. This is what works for me. Do I believe in a God, a higher power deity, absolutely.
Spiritually is a very personal realm, don’t try to “fit” yourself into a religious box because you are fearful of an eternal punishment. Believe and live what resonates with your intuitive self because otherwise you can never love who you are and I personally believe that is the ultimate spiritual challenge for us all.

Thank you Amy. You and I have a lot in common. Your story really hit home with me. I think we all struggle with
many issues and some of us are afraid to open up.
