Introducing 'THA'

While using practices like yoga, meditation, breathwork and self-Reiki to cultivate inner stability, and to developsome mastery over my mind, I started to 'open up'.  Meaning, my intuition came online, as to be expected, and I was able to start tapping into my Higher Self, the eternal part of me that is not defined by my ego, by my learned ideas or by my physical body.  In the early days of my spiritual development, meditation particularly became a thing that I wanted to do often, especially because it helped to reduce my anxiety and my stress, but more than anything I felt incredibly connected to loving energies, inspiration and a kind of expansiveness that I had never known before.  The practice and the study of yoga, as well as the use of breathwork and Reiki, helped to prepare my body, inclusive of my energy body, to receive, hold and transmit more Light.  Meaning, I began to clear away some of the density within me, such as stuck energies that I was carrying, and my chakra system, the system within us that manages this Light, started to run cleaner.  I used breathwork to not only to manage my nervous system, but to manage my body, my energy and very purposefully work with and transmit energy.  With a regular practice of yoga as well as other energy practices, I was able to learn how to both physically ground my body while also conditioning and strengthening it, which started to raising my vibration very high.  I moved into what is known as Self-Realization and encountered my Divinity during a profound spiritual experience that I am still learning how to integrate.

I have always been a seeker for as far back as I can remember, in the sense that I wanted to understand myself fully.  I was very sensitive as a young child and teenager and I now identify myself as an empath or HSP (Highly Sensitive Person).  I could feel or sense and know things about people that and this made it hard for me to ever really feel comfortable around most people and eventually I grew uncomfortable just trying to be myself as well.   For most of young life I was bullied and because of this I felt like it wasn't safe to be me, especially when I shined; there always seemed to be a consequence for that.  I have always loved learning and excelled in school and this certainly was a pain-point for my bullies.   Even though learning helped to feed my voracious desire to understand things, more than anything it was a way for me to feel safe and in control somehow and it wasn't long before studying became not my vehicle for self-expression and self-worth but it also became what felt like my only hope.  When I was 17 my mom walked out on us.  I saw my Dad rapidly age and we had no idea how to be there for each other.  He lost his job due to a corporate takeover and I'll never forget the day he painfully smiled at me when he walked in the door with a box of food from the food bank.  We were at rock bottom.  Shortly after that we lost our house.   I moved away to another province to study sciences not knowing how I was going to make ends meet and my dad got himself a basement apartment.  My younger brother rented a room in random places.  My older sister had already been out on her own and was making ends meet.  My whole world fell apart.  I was heartbroken and I felt completely alone and afraid.   Through sheer grit and determination I managed to get into a program in Laboratory Medicine.  I studied hard, worked part-time and used bank loans to make it on my own and once I graduated I walked right into a job.  

I absolutely loved my career in laboratory medicine as a Medical Laboratory Technologist (MLT).  It suited me so well.  I loved the exacting nature of it, how meaningful it was to others in need, and how I could put so much of myself into my work, since histology unlike other disciplines, is highly manual or hands-on and requires great technical skill to produce quality outcomes.  I went into the field of histology and became a Pathologist's Assistant (PA) right away, as the opportunity presented itself.   Histology is the study of tissues, one branch of laboratory medicine.  In the past, Pathologists, (a medical doctor who diagnoses diseases by examining tissues, organs, and body fluids in a lab) used to do all of the tissue dissection.  But over the years, especially in the big acute care hospitals, Pathologist Assistants were being trained to do this work so that the Pathologists could focus on the reading of microscope slides for diagnosis as this is a very heavy load in and of itself.   I loved carefully going over these dis-laden specimens and sampling them for a thorough analysis.  I did that for 11 years until I moved into a leadership role that became more administrative than technical, much like a supervisor or operations lead, with the added responsibilities of using technical expertise to validate testing instrumentation and on-baord new tests.   I worked closely with staff on the front-line to support their needs by managing inventory, employee training and competence and I worked closely with the Lead Pathologist's to ensure their needs were being met and with all areas of the histology lab to ensure patient testing ran smoothly.   It was a very busy lab with three sites serving a large population and I found that I was often putting out fires and never really felt like I could ever get it all done.   While I enjoyed so much of what I was doing, I wanted to have a greater impact and had goals to move into leadership with a particular interest in quality management.  

​

I studied quality management part time for 10 years and earned two designations with the American Society of Quality with hopes one day of becoming the Quality Manager.  When the one-manned position became available due to retirement, I eagerly applied and got an interview.  I felt this was my next step and wanted nothing more.  When the Chief of Pathology started to fall asleep shortly after my interview commenced and the Laboratory Director rushed me through answering the first question, "Tell us about your career history and why you are interested in this position?" my heart sank and I got a whiff of what was to come.   I found out a short time later that they had already hired someone else.  Someone external who was far more qualified and deserving of the role than me and I was truly hurt by this.  More than anything, what hurt the most was the realization that my steadfast commitment of 150% to my job and my years of preparation for this role was lost on two people who had only worked for the lab a couple of years. It was such an empty feeling.  Something in me just broke and feelings that I had been stuffing down for years came and struck me in the face.  It hit me like a wall of bricks: I was done not being appreciated.  I was done being overlooked.  I was done self-sacrificing and I was done feeling sucked dry by my job. 

After surveying my 25-year career of intensely giving my all to my career I realized how unhappy I actually was and this crushed me.   I leaned heavily on my meditation, yoga and breathwork practice to move through this difficult period in my life.  As I began to stabilize a deep calling within me began to emerge when sitting with the question, What do I want?   I felt a calling to do what felt like more fulfilling and meaningful work, work with more impact, work that did not drain me of my lifeforce everyday.  Increasingly, I came to know that I had to leave my career in order to actually honor this calling and this knowing became a heavy burden to carry.  I knew that I could not find what I was looking for in my career, yet my career was who I was; it was what I was good at....I was an expert.   I brought all of my anguish with this to my practices.  I surrendered and over time I became more confident and more sure about starting to live and work differently. 

So much in my life has changed since then.  I began to pursue my passions, do more of what brought me joy, and I followed the path of service through my heart.  I slowly eased out of my first career to bring in a new one.  I have now since retired from laboratory work.  It was a truly difficult transition to make but I held onto the belief that not transitioning would be worse.   I believed that not heeding to my calling and the impact that would've had on me, and the regret that would come with it, would've likely been much more difficult and destructive in my life.  The more I leaned on my practices to stay the course the more direction and guidance I got, and the more I softened into allowing things to unfold.  The things in my life that needed to change became more obvious to me and the courage and the nudge that I needed to make those changes came very naturally in their own time. 

I entered into a powerful stage of development at this time over several years of gradual transformation using a spiritual practice.  It  included lots of creative expression, acts of service, and training in new skills, as well the unfolding of a vision of a business helping others to reach their full potential.  I started to become flooded with inspiration and what we can call downloads, or 'Aha' moments, that would strike.  I learned that if you didn't immediately write it all down you would lose it, but if you caught it in time, the gem would be yours to hold, explore and honour.  I became very diligent in writing down all of my downloads.  I started to do automatic writing where streams of information would come to me, through me, and out onto the page.  I didn't really know that I was channeling but I certainly knew that I was inspired.  It was during this time that I began to study channeled material.  In fact, it was while reading 'A Course in Miracles' that I had the aforementioned powerful spiritual experience of discovery my Divinity.  Among reading the Seth and Edgar Cayce material, I also became a student of Paul Selig's 'Guides' too.  I began to devour books that, to me, felt like they had the depth and the tonality that I craved, that was moving through me.  A deeper and more expansive understanding of humanity began to take hold within me as I my understanding of myself became more evolved.  I began to heal in many ways and integrate these higher teachings.  Eventually I started to study how to channel verbally and it wasn't long before I began to channel my own messages verbally and the feeling from these sessions was incredible.  I felt so elevated after and I was always impressed and intrigued after typing it all out.  I would marvel at how much depth and inspiration could be drawn from them.  I channeled my own guides for a little under a year before a newer sensation started to come through.  It was subtle but my guides drew themselves into the background almost entirely once I made the connection with what I now call 'THA - The Heavenly Alliance'. 

​

Often I am shocked at, and in awe of, how useful, practical, supportive and hopeful THA's messages are.  They regularly surprise and delight me.  Maybe every time!  I receive a lot of practices through channeling.  My cup runneth over with developmental teachings!  Much of what they teach helps us to become more aware of our power and our hearts.  They teach us how to balance our power with our grace, so many of the practices involve working with the heart, the body's energy, with Light and with intention.  I've been archiving it all and now it is time for me to share it.  What I am channeling is exactly on par with what I want to do, the way I want to serve, and my guides know this so I find it all very helpful.  They support me everyday to birth this new way of working.  I use my practices and these teachings to stay the course.  I know I am here to Bring the Light.  I know that I am here to Hold the Light.  Like many others at this time, I consider myself a Lightworker.  A Lightworker's calling so incredibly strong that it cannot be denied, and of course it would be, because it is of the Light, which is the highest form of consciousness available in the universe. 

Right now so many people are caught between trying to wake up and not knowing how to, and not feeling safe enough to do so.  It is a big undertaking.  THA's teachings aim to help us to understand ourselves beyond our limitations in very relevant ways; in ways that reflect the challenges of the times we are living in.  Particularly, the mind is moored to very dense ways of believing and understanding which is why most people come to spirituality from the level of their conditioned minds, the ego and the intellect first.  This can make the transition to self-realization difficult to reconcile because not all of one's beliefs are true, or of Truth, and therefore cannot come along.  So, the regular assistance of our practice, along with the study and contemplation of high teachings, helps to keep us pointed towards Truth and as we walk this path, what I call the Authentic Success Path, or your Dharmic path (SvaDharma), we eventually release the lies that cannot be held in Truth and we grow lighter and lighter; figuratively and metaphorically we rise  - we ascend   This is how we heal.   This is how we thrive.  This is how we experience true joy and fulfilment. This is how we move into full expression and you are here to live and lead with all parts of you. This is how you self-a
