Everything is Energy

Sheldon Shalley Author Interview

The Power of Shamanism and Energy Medicine is a heartfelt exploration of healing and connection through shamanic practice, told through personal stories that honor both the mystery and humanity of spiritual work. Why was this an important book for you to write?

Having worked with shamanic healing and energy medicine for 15 years and seeing the benefits to my clients, I wanted to make shamanic healing practices and the benefits of energy medicine available to a larger audience, to let people know what is possible.

How do you see energy medicine integrating with mainstream clinical mental health practices?

With the increasing evidence emerging from the study of quantum physics that everything is energy, including both the physical plane of matter and the more abstract plane of the mind, vibrating with information that we can engage and interact with, Shamanic healing and energy medicine is a natural evolution and addition to traditional mental health practices as it allows us to access and work with the energetic aspects of our mental health symptoms. I have had medical doctors and nurses in my classes and as clients who have made use of shamanic healing and energy medicine in their personal lives.

What practices or experiences in your own journey have most surprised you or challenged your beliefs?

I have had the spirits of deceased persons show up while working with a client who had information for them regarding their healing. For example, while working with a person who had received a complete lung transplant who was having difficulty with new feelings and changes in preferences, saying the hadn’t felt like herself since the transplant and feeling somewhat guilty that she was able to live when someone else had to die, the person whose lungs she had received appeared in the office. I was able to facilitate a conversation between them that helped her let go of the guilt and understand the changes she was experiencing, setting her free to embrace her new life. I’ve also had parts of a person’s soul show up once we did healing work around a trauma that made space for that particular part of the soul to return.

If someone is feeling spiritually disconnected but skeptical of shamanism, what would you say to help them approach the work with openness?

I teach them that everything is energy and that we are connected to everything. I then introduce them to heart-focused breathing that connects them to their heart and to the quantum field. I then guide them to connect with experiences that give them direct experiences with energy fields that contain the information both from the past and from the future.

Living in Our Truth

Joanna Alexopoulos Author Interview

Awaken to Your Truth: The Time is Now urges readers to transcend ego and embrace their authentic selves through love, unity, and mindful spiritual practices. Why was this an important book for you to write?

The messages in this book are divinely guided to help each individual shift into a higher state of consciousness, out of living in fear, and into living in love. This will influence and uplift others and create a collaboration of healing for our planet. As one transcends the ego, there is one more light in our world. I am passionate about assisting men and women access and activate their divine truth and power to live in peace and create the life that they rightfully desire without pain and suffering. This book is a guide to illuminate their path and heal our world.

In Awaken to Your Truth, you emphasize the phrase “THE TIME IS NOW” throughout the book. What led you to feel this sense of urgency for humanity’s spiritual awakening, and how has this influenced your own personal journey?

The energetic frequency of our planet is at a very low state. We are hurting each other and everything in existence, here on earth and beyond. The sooner we awaken, the faster we may embrace peace on earth and live in harmony with each other and all. It is the responsibility of each individual to do their part in healing themselves.

I live in a peaceful state, as I know how important it is to take responsibility for my own personal state of being. As a spirit, having a human experience, I know I am here to experience the good and the bad, the happy and the sad, and everything in between. I see challenges as opportunities and trust they open the doors to greater possibilities. We are in physicality to learn and grow … for soul expansion. Every experience is a beautiful one. I am grateful for the lessons.

How do you see the balance between personal responsibility and the larger systemic issues like political corruption and environmental destruction that you highlight?

I am in a position to affect positive change with the energetic frequency that I emanate. I believe my vibrational affects all and assists in breaking down the systems that are not for our highest good. All in existence is energy, vibrating at different levels. We must remember it is our personal vibrational state that we must work with to harmonize the energies of our planet and create a better world. When living in our truth (love), we are in a peaceful, joyous state of gratitude. We have faith and trust that all is working out in our favour, and it will when we allow it.

How do you envision the role of mindfulness practices, like grounding in gratitude and conscious creation, in helping individuals make meaningful shifts in their daily lives?

These practices help individuals shift into higher consciousness to make wiser choices. The more grateful you are, the more you will attract to be grateful for. Gratitude is a very high vibration that opens the heart and mind and heals the soul.

Living in the moment creates a more peaceful, trusting state of being. There are no problems in the NOW moment. When you live with awareness, you may more easily create the reality that you wish for. You are not thinking about the past, nor worrying about the future. You are appreciating the very moment, which is the only REAL moment that exists. This enables you to make wiser choices. Life becomes so much easier when you’re not forcing your way through it. You accept all that comes. Your mind does not wander. Your mind stays focused on gratitude.
