Meet Geselle
As a child I always knew I was meant to serve others but I just did not know how that looked.
I always thought that being a Special Education teacher was my calling, especially growing up with a little brother with Down syndrome. My co-workers would always comment on my patience and my unique way of connecting with children with disabilities and behavioral needs. My assistant principal even called me “Anne Sullivan,” which I felt was such a huge honor since she was the first person to teach a child that was blind and deaf. Unconsciously knowing at the time, it was through my teaching career that I learned that I was able to connect with students in an emotional and mental level. I was able to tap into their way of thinking and support them in understanding how to appropriately channel their emotions. So when the opportunity arose to join the Social Emotional Learning Committee I dove right in.
It wasn’t long after until Reiki found me. My friend mentioned having a session and my curiosity led the way. Looking back, I now understand that it was my soul that was yearning for more and wanted to connect with me on a deeper level.
My journey
The most difficult chapter of my life
Everything seemed to be flowing beautifully in my life until I experienced my first loss. In August of 2020, I lost one of my closest friends. I was distraught. I could not imagine a world where we didn’t speak everyday. It was a harsh reality to come to terms with and I got lost in the pain and confusion. I became an introvert and I couldn’t see the color in life anymore. I was torn between staying strong because everything happens for a reason and sitting at home crying and missing his presence. Until I became aware that my friend’s spirit was visiting me and he awakened my mediumship. My emotional and mental journey with grief was and still is a bittersweet experience. It opened my awareness to a new perspective of death and inspired me to live differently. It made me realize that even though he was gone physically, he is still around in spirit protecting and guiding me in this new journey.
My spiritual journey began in 2016, when I was flipping through Netflix for something good to watch with my best friend. We watched ‘The Secret’ and my whole perspective on life changed. Something within me clicked and the next thing I knew I went down the rabbit hole learning about the Law of Attraction, which led me to discover holistic practices to incorporate into everyday life.
It was through my daily Sadhana practices that my spiritual gifts started to reveal themselves, yet I found myself unaware of what was happening to my body. I was becoming increasingly sensitive to other people’s energy, which is when I learned that I am Empath, meaning that I was able to feel other people’s energy but the one experience that led me to learn Reiki was when my hand chakras got activated during meditation. I never intended to become an intuitive healer and share this work with the world but when Reiki entered my life, it was the key that unlocked my soul’s calling and mission on this planet. Holy Fire Karuna Reiki supported me in releasing and healing limited beliefs, stagnant emotions from my childhood, past lives trauma and even inherited wounds and patterns passed down from generations. It completely transformed my personal life and deeply healed my relationship with my parents creating massive ripples effects within my lineage.
