What to Expect During an Intuitive Healing Session

Healing is a deeply personal journey, and no two sessions are ever the same. Whether you’re new to intuitive healing or considering it as part of your wellness routine, knowing what to expect can help you feel more comfortable and prepared.

At Awena, my intuitive healing sessions are designed to provide a safe, supportive space where your body, mind, and energy can rebalance, heal, and thrive.

1. A Warm Welcome and Connection

Your session begins with a conversation. This is your chance to share what’s on your mind, whether it’s a physical challenge, an emotional experience, or simply a desire for greater balance and clarity. I’ll listen with compassion and without judgment, creating a safe space for you to be yourself.

2. A Calming Environment

The session takes place in a peaceful setting at Awena Retreat, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Welsh hills. If you’re attending a remote session, you’ll be guided to create your own calming environment at home—lighting a candle or sitting in a quiet space can help you relax.

3. Intuitive Healing Process

The heart of the session involves gentle, intuitive energy healing. Here’s what this might include:

•          Energy Work: I’ll work with your body’s energy intuitively, focusing on areas that may feel blocked or imbalanced. Many clients describe this process as deeply relaxing, with a sensation of warmth or lightness.

•          Guided Relaxation: As your body relaxes, your mind begins to quiet, allowing your natural healing processes to activate.

•          Personalized Insights: As I work, intuitive guidance may come through, offering insights into emotional patterns or life situations that may be influencing your energy.

4. Emotional and Physical Responses

During a session, you may experience a variety of emotional or physical reactions, all of which are part of the healing process:

•          You might feel tearful, laugh, cry, or even fall asleep as your body releases what no longer serves you.

•          After the session, you may feel tired or drained as your body realigns with the new energy. This is natural and part of the healing process.

The Fight-or-Flight Response and How Healing Helps

When we’re under constant stress, our body activates the fight-or-flight response, a survival mechanism designed to help us react to danger. This response increases cortisol (the stress hormone) and keeps our nervous system on high alert. While this is useful in short bursts, prolonged activation can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, and tension.

Intuitive healing helps to calm the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for rest and relaxation. As your body releases cortisol and returns to a balanced state, you may notice:

•          Improved energy levels in the days following the session.

•          A deeper sense of calm and clarity as your system resets.

5. Understanding Energy and Chakras

At the core of intuitive healing is the idea that our bodies are made up of energy. When this energy flows freely, we feel balanced, healthy, and connected. However, stress, trauma, or life challenges can create blockages, leading to physical, emotional, or spiritual discomfort.

One way to understand this is through the chakra system, which is made up of seven main energy centers in the body:

•          Root Chakra (Base of the Spine): Linked to safety, stability, and grounding.

•          Sacral Chakra (Lower Abdomen): Associated with creativity, emotions, and relationships.

•          Solar Plexus Chakra (Upper Abdomen): Governs confidence, willpower, and self-esteem.

•          Heart Chakra (Center of Chest): Connected to love, compassion, and emotional balance.

•          Throat Chakra (Throat): Represents communication and self-expression.

•          Third Eye Chakra (Forehead): Tied to intuition and inner wisdom.

•          Crown Chakra (Top of Head): Associated with connection to higher consciousness and spirituality.

During the session, I may work with one or more of these energy centers to clear blockages and restore harmony. Many clients find this part of the process enlightening and deeply calming.

6. Reflection and Guidance

At the end of the session, we’ll take time to reflect on your experience. I’ll share any intuitive guidance or observations that came through, and we can explore how they relate to your life. This might include simple techniques—like breathing exercises or meditation—to help you integrate the healing process and stay balanced in your daily life.

7. Post-Session Integration

Healing doesn’t stop when the session ends. Many clients notice changes over the following days, such as improved sleep, a calmer mind, or greater clarity. It’s important to listen to your body and allow yourself time to integrate the experience. Journaling or spending time in nature can be helpful during this period.
