Years ago while meditating in my bed, I flew out of my body and this was nothing new. What was startling is I couldn’t get back into my physical form. As I tried to reconnect, a calming voice urged me to relax, which paradoxically increased my fear. In my struggle, a burst of intuitive light—reminiscent of the healing light therapy I’ve used—finally pulled me back into my body. This moment revealed to me that love is the only true reality. Feelings like depression and guilt are just shadows, not reality. Our minds, influenced by past experiences, create stories filled with judgments. This is why I believe in reshaping our narratives into empowering ones that promote growth and purpose. Inspired by Donald Hoffman’s “The Case Against Reality,” I understand that much of what we consider real is actually just a belief system. Science often just confirms these beliefs rather than uncovering the real truths. By choosing empowering stories, we can live a life full of purpose and transformation.
