Heal Your Soul, Heal Your Life

Awaken Your Voice & Authentic Expression

By Tracey RosePublished 5 years ago 5 min read

I am most passionate about having my voice and my truth of healing be heard in the world. I believe joining vocal can be one of the steps into my rise of what I need to deeply express to the world.

For most of my life, my voice was buried. My parents were refugees and the trauma from the Vietnam war and the stresses of surviving was imprinted on another level in our blood. With so many different stressors and trauma growing up, I learned to stay small, unexpressed and bury my voice to survive. I internalized my rage and bit my tongue year after year. Little did I know, I was abandoning and destroying myself inside.

In early adolescence, I developed generalized anxiety, then later I developed asthma/bronchitis, irritable bowel syndrome, leaky gut syndrome, candida overgrowth and inflammation issues. I also had many intense emotional issues, high conflict and unstable intimate relationships. In integrating more evidence-based literature, I too felt that my mind and emotional trauma created my physical ailments. This was not a quality of life or living I could keep up. It was not sustainable.

With my background in holistic nursing, mindfulness, energy healing and psychotherapy, I thought I could heal my body via healing my thoughts. After several exhaustive attempts in the healing arts to heal my chronic issues, and after several failed relationships, I realized it all led me back to me. Though I was trained to identify with my problems as health diagnosis, personality disorders and relationships dysfunction and that all these issues were to be solved only through my psyche; I found a deeper truth. The “body keeps score” and "the body does not lie" is a form of science presented by doctors and evidence-based stress testing, supporting the relationship between trauma, relationships and health issues.

I found that healing my heart of the soul that lives in our body was the answer. After almost a decade of dark nights of my soul, making mistakes, cycling in patterns of illness and addiction, my voice of the soul began to break free, my body released the repressed stresses and healed itself; and the patterns in my life started changing for the better. Long term disorders, dysfunction and addictions began to finally not have a hold over me. Personal transformation is real.

I once heard a TedTalk presentation that said passion is the result of one's lived experience deeply affecting and influencing a person's transformation. Therefore, I am passionate about my voice and freedom in authentic expression because of how deep this healing journey has touched me.

My body demands the vocal freedom to be released from the shadow and to speak in the light. My voice was about returning to my heart, my true natural flow and the journey of surrender. My voice was the link to my purpose of achieving personal health and unconditional self-love. More than anything, I wish for others to achieve this kind of personal freedom.

People want to hear what I have to say because I believe I have had the lived experience, hero stories that can pave an innovative and integrated approach to healing mind, body and soul.

I am a nurse educator and holistic counsellor who has the knowledge, skills and wisdom to educate and guide others in healing the stresses of the mind, emotional trauma and depths of the soul that also relate to healing several of our psychosomatic conditions.

I am an authority in healing the psyche of the soul, the natural science of the body and the paradoxes of the mind. I believe I have the unique training, intersectional communication skills and personality to bring forth education to address the ongoing mental, emotional and physical health issues we are faced with today.

With many brilliant minds, frameworks and modalities available, how would I introduce something of value one might ask? I believe it’s about combining secular wisdom, skills and knowledge of various methodologies, different parts of the world and current solutions closer together. I believe solutions in our world already exist, but it is up to us to bring the gaps of research, knowledge and practice closer together. Simply put, I have found the puzzle pieces of the world and lived a story myself, to bring these pieces back together again in contributing to a world that is more whole in heart and humanity.

More specifically, I educate others about establishing mind-body connection, effective emotional processing, and bring attention to emotional-behaviour pattern awareness based on the unconscious psyche. A few psychological theories such as Carl Jung and Gestalt, mindfulness-based psychology, scientific testing and unconscious mind techniques are utilized and applied. In other simpler terms, we will learn to deeply heal and accept ourselves at the core of who we are and love each other whole-heartedly.

What will bring me true fulfillment is to have the support and resources to have my voice fully heard in the world; that my voice and profound health transformations I offer in my private practice, will be a widespread solution to hundreds of thousands and if not millions of individuals. I know that this vision I hold within will come true regardless, however with your support, I can turn this dream into a reality sooner than later. With your partnership and Memberful, I plan to offer guided written material, audio and video instruction that will facilitate the process I teach past and current individuals that have shown results in the realm of health and relationships. What has helped others and myself heal, is the very practical wisdom I wish to make accessible for others via Memberful.

I would appreciate your support toward my passion because I know on some level, we know someone we love who is battling through relationship challenges, chronic illness, mental illness, psychosomatic or autoimmune disorders. We know on all levels, suffering is inevitable at some point in our lives. The collective compassion is what I strive to achieve with Vocal and Memberful.

I found the puzzle pieces to healing the underlying reasons for disorders, syndromes and illnesses. I have figured out the scientific wisdom to transcending our human suffering.

As a nurse, healer, therapist and poetic story teller, I dream of a healthier humanity. I dream of a world where we can reunite mind-body and soul. I dream of a health care system that puts the human being first.

I dream of the biomedical model reuniting with all holistic dimensions of who we are. I will bring together these missing puzzle pieces of knowledge, skills and wisdom to create greater accessibility for individuals searching for holistic solutions to healing their lives.

We are not defined by what ails us, such as the labels, diagnoses, disorders and dysfunction. I believe transformation begins with re-defining, unlearning and placing the power back on us.

There is no doubt that more and more people are awakening and realizing what’s really important here and that is us becoming empowered as human beings, rising in our authentic power and using our voices for change. Beyond passion, this is the voice from my soul that wants to express itself. It would mean the world to me, to have your support to make this dream of healing in a greater capacity become a reality.
