How Trauma Affects Your Crown Chakra (And How to Reconnect with Your Purpose)
Have you ever felt a sense of peace, a deep connection to something larger than yourself, or a clear understanding of your place in the universe? That quiet sense of knowing and belonging comes from your Crown Chakra. It's your highest energy center, linking you to spiritual wisdom, universal consciousness, and your true purpose. When it's balanced, you experience serenity, clear spiritual insight, and a feeling of unity.
But what happens when that vital connection feels fractured, especially after traumatic or deeply challenging experiences? You might find yourself feeling utterly lost, disconnected from any sense of meaning, or struggling with existential confusion. These are often signs that your crown chakra needs some gentle attention and healing.

How Trauma Affects Your Third Eye (And How to Reclaim Your Clarity)
Ever felt that "gut feeling" or just knew something was off, even if you couldn't explain why? That's your Third Eye Chakra at work – your inner compass for intuition, insight, and deeper wisdom. When this powerful energy center is balanced, it's like having crystal-clear vision for your life, allowing you to trust your instincts and see beyond the surface.
But what happens when that inner guidance gets cloudy, especially after difficult or traumatic experiences? You might find yourself constantly second-guessing, struggling with a persistent mental fog, or feeling completely disconnected from your own inner knowing. These are often clear signals that your third eye chakra needs some gentle attention and healing.

How Trauma Affects Your Throat Chakra (And How to Reclaim Your Authentic Voice)
Your Throat Chakra is your core of authentic expression, communication, and truth. When it's balanced, you experience clarity in speaking your truth, creative expression, and the ability to listen deeply.
But when this energy center is disrupted, the impact on your daily life is huge. Feelings of being unheard, fear of judgment, and an inability to express your true self can become common. These are strong indicators that your throat chakra is out of alignment.

Why I use Reiki with EMDR as a Licensed Therapist
If you’re reading this, chances are you value a holistic and intentional approach to healing. We share similar values here. Traditional talk therapy often doesn’t go deep enough. The number one reason I use Reiki with EMDR as a licensed therapist is that trauma affects your mind, body, and spirit - so why shouldn’t your recovery focus on that too? We get to use Reiki to enhance EMDR and help you heal from the inside out.
