When the universe answers: guiding young adults to their true selves

When the universe answers: guiding young adults to their true selves

A couple of years ago when I was enquiring about what is next in my purpose to serve and contribute, there was a guidance to work with young adults.

I didn’t know how and what to specifically contribute to young adults. Although our workshops have been attended by all age groups from as young as 8 year olds to 80 year olds, I didn’t know how to simplify the teachings and bring it to the doorstep of young adults who were not seeking the path or were not into any healing per se.

Several months ago, I prayed to the universe to show me the next steps on my spiritual journey. I gave a declaration that from now onwards I am not going to struggle to find my way or struggle to be a conduit for supporting others. I prayed that if the universe wants me to do something for young adults, it should send the opportunity at my doorstep.

It is said, “Ask and you shall RECEIVE.”

In the last several months universe has presented me the opportunity to guide young adults in several ways. The opportunities have indeed come my way effortlessly.

And while I have fretted what will I share with them and how, whenever the time came to be with them, the right words, guidance, teachings, ceremonies have just flowed through me. Divine Grace has poured through me for these young ones and I feel blessed to be a conduit.

One such opportunity was at the event called “RYLA” organised by Rotary in an agricultural college 3 hours away from home.

The conversations on “Living and Leading Authentically” seamlessly flowed into a drumming circle where Sprit flowed through me. We had conversations on true self, fears, how and what shapes our emotions and belief systems, the role of our soul and how our human experience is coloured by what we have stored in our subconscious minds.

The drum circle ended with a beautiful fire ceremony where these young ones wrote patterns and aspects they wished to release and goals they wished to manifest.

Lastly, we ended the circle by chanting like a mantra the following affirmation, “I choose to be loyal to myself”.

We closed sacred space by giving our own self a huge round of applause.

It was a humbling experience when so many young adults had so many questions on how to identify what is our true self.

I came back home at 1 AM to be welcomed by the spirit of my home and slept in sweet fondness of how miraculously the universe works its ways should we choose to open our hearts and allow.

In deepest gratitude I wish each one of us a life filled with Authenticity and True to our Souls.

So long 2024 and a warm welcome to the coming year 2025. Aho 🌟

When the universe answers: guiding young adults to their true selves

Creating future leaders, the shamanic way

Sometime ago, when I had enquired about the next step of my work, I was guided to contribute to and work with young adults. Although our workshops have no age bar, I didn’t know how to specifically reach out to this age group.

A couple of weeks ago, I was invited by Rotary Club to hold a drum circle and fire ceremony for 100 plus young adults.

The theme of the 3 days event was “Creating Future Leaders.”

This two hour event marked the beginning for me at Shamanic Vision to plant seeds in young fertile minds.

After opening up sacred space, we spoke about and discussed Mother Earth and how we are exploiting the earth. We spoke about reciprocity, partnership and gratitude to Mother Earth for providing for us.

We spoke about nature, different elements and their contribution to us.

We discussed how our body is made up of these 5 elements and what role each element plays physically and spiritually.

We also drummed to recognising our true nature and briefly talked about how our authenticity gets masked by social, cultural and religious conditioning.

We did another round of drum circle with the prayer to Divinity to help us recognise and BE who we truly are.

After that we had a beautiful fire ceremony. We wrote on a piece of paper all negative dysfunctional beliefs we need to release and surrendered that to the spirit of the fire.

And we drummed, sang, chanted and rattled to this process of letting go.

We then wrote on another piece of paper that which we need to manifest in our lives. We surrendered this piece of paper to fire too.

Fire destroys. Fire births. Fire transforms.

We concluded the session with expressing gratitude to the spirit of the land that held us and all the organisers who put together this beautiful event.
