This is an important topic, and I want to clarify a few things. Many mediums either can’t or won’t engage with the darker aspects of the metaphysical world. Some avoid it entirely, fearing they’ll attract negativity. However, I believe there’s immense power in embracing both light and dark. It’s a truly magical space to inhabit. Understanding hardship makes joy even more profound. Without darkness, we lack the contrast necessary for growth.
I choose to see both.
Do I dwell in the dark? Absolutely not. Darkness is a tool, a means of identifying where healing is needed.
People often ask if I see darkness daily. The honest answer is, I could. Sitting in my car waiting for my children, I could drop the veil and see the lingering shadows.
Why are they there? Like any energy, they’re drawn to certain places. Perhaps a past trauma occurred on that land, or maybe they’re attracted to my ability to see them.
Do I feel compelled to intervene? Not always. If they’re not causing direct harm, I leave them be, trusting they serve a purpose.
Occasionally, in a safe space, my guides will drop the veil to allow me to eradicate a demon. This might happen a couple of times a year. I don’t question why; I trust my team’s guidance. Eradication is often as simple as surrounding them with source energy and sending them to the light. If they’re easily transmutable, it suggests they’ve asked for release, and I’m merely the vessel.
How do I maintain boundaries? My guides are very clear about their intentions. They understand the constant exposure to darkness can create issues for me personally. I’ve battled autoimmune issues, which I believe are linked to my work. This year, with increased client work, prioritizing self-care has become crucial. It’s vital for practitioners to know their limits. For the first time since starting my podcast, I’ve turned down new clients.
Speaking of self-care, id like to share what I personally do as it’s essential for sustaining this work. Everyone is different, of course. You won’t find me doing yoga on the beach, though it sounds ideal. I prefer walking, light running, and weightlifting. I need those bursts of movement to release energy. I eat cleanly (mostly) and rarely drink alcohol. I avoid alcohol entirely when working, as it weakens boundaries. I can’t speak to recreational drugs because I have never used them. I also limit physical contact with others. Casual hugs are not conducive to holding the necessary energetic container. Even a massage can trigger unwanted mediumship readings. Some things, despite my best efforts, I can’t shut out. This is why I keep my circle small and rarely disclose my abilities. I never announce my gifts publicly unless specifically called to do so, which has happened only a few times.
This work is not for the faint of heart. It can be isolating. Many spiritualists avoid me, fearing they’ll attract negativity. Despite my mostly impeccable spiritual hygiene (no one’s perfect), there’s a stigma attached.
Another crucial boundary is self-work. In my experience, demonic or negative attachments exploit weaknesses in your system. If you address those weaknesses, the negativity has nothing to cling to. That’s my biggest piece of advice.
I understand why some might question my chosen path, given its intensity. But the rewards of accessing both worlds are immense. There’s a profound power in facing darkness without fear. I could stand face-to-face with Satan himself and remain confident, knowing my team and I are protected.
