How to Keep Your Inner Light Shining When the World Feels Heavy
The world can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially for empaths and lightworkers who absorb the energies around them. How do we maintain our inner light when everything seems heavy? This soul-nourishing episode explores essential practices for keeping your spiritual flame burning bright during challenging times.
Justina draws from over two decades of Reiki experience to share wisdom about spiritual self-care that goes beyond surface-level practices. She offers a refreshingly practical approach to maintaining your energetic frequency through nutrition, explaining how the vibration of foods directly impacts our ability to shine our light. You'll discover why incorporating fresh, earth-grown foods creates the energetic foundation needed for spiritual service.
The conversation deepens as we explore how energy blockages—often created when we suppress our authentic voice—affect our entire system. Learn how chakra imbalances manifest as physical symptoms and how energy healing reconnects us to both earthly and divine forces. Justina shares remarkable stories from her healing practice, including encounters with archangels and experiences with "stem cell energy" that completely rejuvenates tissue.
Perhaps most valuable is the reminder that we need community on our spiritual journey. As societal attitudes shift toward greater acceptance of energy medicine and intuitive practices, finding your soul tribe becomes essential. Whether through in-person gatherings or online connections, surrounding yourself with people who understand your experiences creates the safety needed to fully embrace your gifts.
Remember that true healing comes not from the practitioner but through them. When we create safe, judgment-free environments filled with compassion, the body intuitively knows how to heal itself. Join us in setting the intention to raise the collective vibration through kindness, understanding, and the courage to keep your light shining, especially when darkness seems to prevail.

Speaker 1:We are at episode two of the Sacred Soul Sisters podcast. I'm Justina, your host, a certified Reiki practitioner, angel communicator and medium. I truly appreciate your patience as we navigate this new podcasting journey. We want to create a safe, nonjudgmental sisterhood where we can grow together on our healing and spiritual journeys. Thank you for being here with us. We're so glad. So today I wanted to talk a little bit about shining our light and how important that is. Right now I'm recording this episode, it is February 15th, the day after Valentine's Day, February 15th, 2025.
Speaker 1:And January was a lot lot, to say the least. It was a lot everywhere. We don't necessarily want to talk politics on our podcast, but we will say that there's a lot going on that can really feel heavy, and our job as empaths, as lightworkers, as people in the spiritual community, is to do everything we can to keep our lightitations. My spirit team had came through and said that the things are probably going to get a bit crazy and a bit overwhelming. Coming very soon was showing me mostly the start of it in January, possibly the end of December. So I thought, okay, well, what does that mean? And they said well, what we really want you to do and what we want you to share with others is to try to do everything you can to look at everything. You so, as if.
Speaker 1:And they just kept showing me, like in my living room, watching a movie that I downloaded or streamed, and knowing that, even though there's so many horrible things happening in this movie, I am somewhat removed from it, and I think that they taught me that, or told me that, because they know my empathic nature and they know that I had to find a way to disconnect a little bit in order to continue to keep my light on inside. And that's what I keep having to remind myself. I have to remind myself quite often, and in doing so, they said you really still want to make sure that you're sending love and light to anyone that is affected by any of the things that are going on, whether that is directly affected, or family members, or friends, or just community at a whole. Basically, sending light, sending love and everything. But we can't do that on an empty bucket, right? So what can we do to keep our light on? So I think, sometimes as healers, or sometimes as empaths, or sometimes as women, period, we're so used to just do, do, do Like we take care of this and we take care of that and we can handle everything, we can multitask, we can do all these things, but what are we doing for ourselves? And sometimes, no, a lot of times, let's be real, the answer is nothing Like. Oh well, when am I supposed to fit that in? You know that doesn't really align with, you know, running the kids here, running the kids there and clocking in at work and cleaning the house and all those things.
Speaker 1:So I want to take a minute to talk about what we can do to keep our light going, and I know that there's several healers, there's several blogs that have talked about the importance of nutrition, and I have to remind myself of that as well. But food really does carry a vibration. So if we're putting into our bodies, you know, fresh fruits and vegetables that grew from Mother Earth, right, Organic preferably, of course, but even if it's not organic, they carry a vibration, they are alive, right? So if we're eating microwavable meals every day that don't consist of any fruits and veggies, we're probably not living to our fullest potential, right? Like now I don't mean like you've got to, you know, eat perfectly all the time, each and every moment of each and every day. That's not what I'm saying. But what I'm saying is we really do need to make an effort to at least try If we want to make it through this, this crazy time in the world right now. If we want to make it through this, we really need to do everything we can right. So that's one of them is to just kind of eat what you regularly eat, but add some vegetables and fruits in. We talked about that.
Speaker 1:Meditation, Med meditation is amazing. Meditation is so great for not only calming our nervous system but getting us in alignment with spirit, with getting us in a place where our energetic frequency has been calmed, has been calmed so that someone that is in fight or flight, that is having a really hard time that we're we have the ability to shine our light on them. We have the ability to affect them in a positive manner versus a negative manner. We also boy, I'm new at this like talking stuff I'm saying all the time, so please continue to be patient with me. I'm going to get it together eventually, Right? The other thing is uh, take, take time for self-care in in the way of book a massage If you don't feel like you can afford it right now, cause gosh. I know how expensive everything is. Food is insane right now, Childcare is crazy expensive, Gas, I mean, like there's just so many things that cost so much. But maybe even putting like five bucks in a I don't know in a drawer or something, somewhere like five bucks a week here, you know, until you can get up enough to get a massage, at least you have something you're looking forward to. Also, obviously, as a Reiki practitioner, I have to recommend Reiki, An energy session allowing your energetic chakras, your energy centers, to get back in balance.
Speaker 1:That can help us so much. I just finished a session this morning. One of her chakras had a lot going on in it. There was stagnant energy, there was a bunch of different things, and what was happening is any chakra below that point wasn't really getting life force right. So not only does it mess up your flow, your energetic flow altogether, but but some parts of you aren't even getting any energetic re-ignition or coming back to vibrancy or anything like that.
Speaker 1:So and that can happen so easily too, because you know we have to be in this, this human life, right and in order to get through human life a lot of times there are moments where, again, especially as women, we have to. Well, we don't have to, but we have been taught to be people pleasers on most of us, a lot of our lives. And you know, swallow what matters to me and you know, whatever makes you happy, that that's what I want to do and these kinds of things. And we swallow our voice and so often our throat chakra gets affected by that. And if we get to a point where our throat chakra is blocked up from all kinds of stagnant energy or energies that we've continued to swallow because we don't stand in who we are, we don't speak up for ourselves, then all those chakras below are not getting their energetic flow right.
Speaker 1:So what can that look like? Oh, my goodness, there's so many different things. There's so many chakras below the throat chakra. You could have digestive issues, you could have bowel issues, you could have tons of aches and pains all over and not really know why. It doesn't really make sense. So, getting your energetic chakras in balance, getting your what we work on in the sessions that I do is reconnecting heaven to earth right. So if we are able to restore the flow throughout all of your energetic centers, what we're able to do is we're able to be here on this planet and also be connected to mother Gaia, earth and to the heavens above, right and the divine, the universe, the multiverse, the great I am. And when we have that restored, we can function so much better at such a higher capacity that we have the ability to share our light with others. So that's so important.
Speaker 1:Another thing we can look at is community, and I think I mentioned that in the first episode we had. But community is so important. We have to have somebody. Well, we don't have to. I mean, I spent many years not having somebody for a little bit, um, because I was, I was scared about what people would say. Right, it's hard, um, especially when you have these moments where you're like, oh my gosh, did I just like connect with an angel, did I just connect with the spirit? Uh, oh, I have this feeling, feeling in my gut, that I really need to get away from such and such person. Or I just have this vision about something happening with the next Olympics or the you know, like all of these different things that can kind of come in your head and and you're so self-conscious that who you tell is going to be like, oh, you're freaking crazy. You are freaking crazy. What are you talking about? But community is so important and it's so much easier if you have more than one person.
Speaker 1:I had two people in my life that had two people in my life that 1 million percent knew everything. They knew all the time that I um, when I would be like, oh hey, someone's uncle's here, oh, hey, I feel this presence here. Or, oh my gosh, I just got a message from so-and-so and these kinds of things and learning about energy healing and how amazing it can be for somebody to remove a blockage and restore flow to their body, and how much better they can feel. And sessions, the last couple of years they've really showed me how disease starts to take place in the body from not having these energetic centers cleared out, you know. So my two people passed away within a month of each other about three years ago. So the more people you can have, that you feel like you can be yourself around is amazing. And what does that look like? How do you find those people? I think for one.
Speaker 1:I think that things are starting to change. I think people are starting to realize that there's more out there than meets the eye, so to speak, and what Spirit has been telling me for a long time is there's going to come a point and I'm assuming in my lifetime, the way they make it sound that people aren't going to be able to get to the doctor maybe as regularly as they used to, or they've lost faith in the medical system, or there's going to be some barrier to that and people are going to turn to alternative health methods. They're going to turn to people that do acupuncture, people that do energy healing, people that are mediums, people that talk to spirit, people that can give them a message from their past loved one. You know there's so many different modalities that I feel like are becoming more accepted, but I also feel like there's going to come a point where some of the people that were so against these kinds of things and I, there's going to come a point where they are just going to have to turn to someone like us that they are going to be like oh my gosh, either they've tried every other avenue. You know they've tried multiple medications or they've tried and I'm not saying we're like the be all.
Speaker 1:You know like we, we do everything. We don't do anything. What we do is try ourselves to be the best vessel to allow energy to flow through us. I'm not the one healing you. I'm not the one like I am. I am there helping to facilitate it, but that is coming from a divine power way bigger than me that is facilitating the healing. Also, you are healing yourself in so many ways. I'm just trying to create the environment for you. The body knows what to do so many times. So when we put our human body in a safe, comfortable, nonjudgmental, loving environment, it's almost like it's fertilizer organic, good for you, fertilizer with water, Like everything is poured back in and your body is like, oh my gosh, I know exactly what to do. Let me connect this to this. Let me make sure this flows here. Let me let me get rid of this, because this is causing harm to your body, and then we'll create healing here. You know there's so many amazing things that can healing here. You know there's so many amazing things that can, that can happen.
Speaker 1:Uh, there's a, a patient that I had, or a client I should say that I had uh, that had, um, I didn't know anything about him, but we had had a session and in the session, uh, we were in, I believe, the sacral chakra and came across. They started to show me, Archangel Michael and Archangel Raphael, all of this inflammation throughout his intestines and his colon and this irritation, and gave me this like feeling of, just you know, stomach discomfort and all kinds of things. And so I started talking to him a little bit and it turns out, uh, he had Crohn's disease and um, and also had a history of some other uh infection in his colon. Anyway, so Archangel Michael and Archangel Raphael really assisted working with creating this safe environment to allow this body to work with the angels to reduce and remove inflammation and return healthy tissue. Right, Like in my last couple of sessions I know this sounds crazy, Trust me, I some of these things.
Speaker 1:Like I'm a Virgo, I'm very anal, retentive, for lack of better words. Sometimes the stuff that comes out of my mouth I'm like are you serious? Just you know what are you talking about. But I know it's real because I'm, I'm present in it, Like I mean I'm physically there, a little out of it when it happens, but anyway, they've been bringing in like stem cell energy, like they're re. So it used to be at first that Archangel Raphael would just provide a healing energy and it would infuse in the area, but lately it's like he has a whole nother bucket of stuff with him and he has this stem cell energy and not only is it being healing, it's like being rejuvenated, like better than new. It's just amazing to me.
Speaker 1:But again, that's not me doing the healing. We're just creating safe environments for facilitation of this healing power that is available to every single one of us. You know you all can do this. It just has to come down to setting your intention to do so and making sure you've done the things yourself. You've done meditation, You've connected, You've taken courses to learn about different things, but really, in order to connect to spirit or to connect to the divine, you don't need any classes. You need quiet time, you need an open heart. That's most of it. It really is so bringing it back to community, looking at different places, looking up yoga classes, sometimes breathwork classes, attending one of those type of classes, attending an informational meeting on Reiki or even an online group, Although I feel like lately, Spirit is really trying to collectively re-encourage us to get back with people in person.
Speaker 1:I think that Zoom and all those things are great a lot of the time. They're wonderful. There's nothing wrong with them and obviously, if that's your only method to communicate with anybody, then that's what you should do. But I feel like they want to make sure that people are also taking time to connect in person with people. I think you know, since COVID and everything, it's been a hard thing getting people totally back together and spending time together. We're getting there, I feel like. But I just want people to remember the importance of connection having people that you feel like you can lean on, having people that you feel like you can talk about stuff on your heart, that you don't have to be worried about what someone is going to think about you or or how they're going to take it or, um, anything like that. Really creating environments you can do that. You can make the environment yourself. You know you can say hey, can anybody meet on Saturday at two o'clock to two to four? Come over to my house, you know, limited to eight people, or you don't even have to limit. You know, just set up something at your house and just, you know, maybe have some snacks or something. You can kind of feel out who you feel like maybe you have a bigger connection to than you thought and spend some time with them and just feel that sense of community. It's so important.
Speaker 1:I know usually our plan is to kind of talk about different sessions. I think I talked about one session. One of my sessions was pretty cool. This was probably about six years ago or so. I was doing a session and I started hearing all of this different language and I was like I don't, I'm not sure what language that is, and it was from a grandmother and she was cooking and, um, they were showing me all of her different cooking utensils and and everything, and she had like a wood countertops, which I thought was a little bit strange, but it was a long time ago, Anyway. So I, and then I started saying these things and to my client and found out that I was speaking Italian and I was just relaying what she was saying.
Speaker 1:I don't think I did very good, Cause at first he was like I, that does sound familiar. And then he was like, oh my gosh, that does sound familiar. And then he was like, oh my gosh, I know exactly what you're saying. And, um, and it was his grandmother, and apparently he wasn't doing something very well with the spaghetti sauce that he was making and he hadn't I don't know if he hadn't cooked it long enough or something. It was pretty funny.
Speaker 1:But um, and then a session earlier today, there was this white cat that came through and like jumped across the table and or not, the table jumped like across the air and like brought a rainbow with it and I was like wait a minute. And I'm like looking all over the cat and it was a completely white cat. I mean like completely white, white. I don't think I've ever seen a complete white cat. And I was hesitant to say anything because I thought, oh, she's going to think I'm freaking nuts. There's nobody that has a completely white cat. I mean, there's nothing on her paw, Like I don't see anything any other color. And sure enough she had a white cat. So you just never know what's going to come through in a session.
Speaker 1:But I'm just so grateful that I get to have the opportunity to be a vessel for healing for somebody and to try to lighten their load, and I encourage all of you to remember just to speak a word of kindness to somebody and even smile, especially at the grouchy people in the grocery store especially. We really truly have no idea what someone is going through, even though sometimes it feels like somebody's going through an awful lot, always because they're always just so dang happy. I know those people, but yeah, so anyway, just wanted to kind of drop in and talk about sharing your light and how important it is in our um and community. I'm so grateful you're here. We will continue to have podcast episodes. We're hoping, like I said, to drop every other week podcast episodes. We're hoping, like I said, to drop every other week as soon as we launch this, if we ever get this launched. It's been a process I had no idea and learning all the different pieces to it like, oh my goodness. So yeah, I hope you guys have a great rest of your day, a great week, a great two weeks, until we meet again and keep shining your light. Thank you so much. We love you guys.
