Each time I talk about meeting your allies or spirit guides, someone tells me the same thing.
“Monica, I’d love to do something like this, but I’m not spiritual enough. I wouldn’t see anything. Nothing would happen to me.”
I understand why you think that.
But after years of working with women through hypnosis, regression, akashic healing, and shamanic work, I’ve learned something.
You don’t need to see a vision, hear a voice, or have a mystical experience to begin connecting with your inner knowing.
You don’t need all the answers before you begin.
Let me tell you why this matters to me.
For over 10 years, I worked as a yoga teacher and board-certified health coach. I understood nutrition, wellness, exercise, and the things we’re told to do to feel better in our bodies.
Yet I reached a point where I was carrying fifteen pounds I couldn’t seem to lose. I read the books. I listened to the podcast and more.
I went on a journey through meditation and hypnosis, looking for answers.
What I found was a seven-year-old version of myself who didn’t feel safe.
I wasn’t expecting her. I wasn’t looking for a spiritual experience. I wanted to understand why I kept struggling with something I knew so much about.
But there she was.
For the first time, I began to understand how much of our adult behavior is rooted in experiences we’ve never fully processed.
The beliefs we carry. The ways we protect ourselves. The patterns we keep repeating, even when we tell ourselves we don’t want to.
My work changed from that point forward.
I began exploring the subconscious mind and understanding different dimensions of healing. Over the years, these practices became part of the work I now teach others.
And one thing keeps coming back to me.
There is so much wisdom available when we stop trying to think our way through everything.
You don’t have to do everything alone.
Think about how much you do daily.
The people who need you each day. The business you’re building. The relationships you’re trying to understand. The decisions you keep thinking about over and over in your mind.
Perhaps you’re the woman everyone calls when they need help.
You know how to figure things out. You know how to keep going.
But when was the last time you gave yourself space to receive?
Not another podcast to listen to. Not another book to read. Not another person telling you what you should do.
A moment to become quiet enough to notice what comes from within.
When I talk about guides, I’m talking about a presence you experience as supportive and loving.
For some women, a guide appears as an animal.
For others, a guide appears as a beloved grandmother, someone who has passed, a figure of light, or a presence they sense without seeing.
Some receive a message. Some experience a feeling. Others leave with a sense of peace or a new understanding.
There isn’t one right way to experience the journey.
You don’t need a particular belief system. You don’t need years of meditation practice. You don’t need to prove anything.
You remain aware and in control throughout the experience.
You give yourself permission to listen.
And you see what unfolds.
Something happened in my training this week.
On Tuesday, I guided two practitioners through this journey as part of my Root Release Method, which guides them on how to use hypnosis with their clients.
Both came to the experience with their own expectations.
One of them connected with someone she had lost.
The words she received moved her in a way I won’t forget.
Watching her experience reminded me why I do this work. Not because I need anyone to believe what I believe, but because I want women to have the opportunity to experience their own inner world and decide what feels meaningful to them.
I’ll share more of her story on Wednesday.
For now, I want to invite you to experience the journey yourself.
Meet Your Guides
Friday, October 16 · 10 a.m. Pacific · 60 minutes · Live on Zoom
I’m opening this experience to you.
Here’s what we’ll do together.
The guided journey. I’ll lead you into a relaxed state of hypnosis and guide you through the process of meeting your guides.
The circle. We’ll have space to hear about one another’s experiences. Sharing is optional, and your camera is welcome to stay off.
The full recording. Return to the journey whenever you want.
Return to Your Guides. You’ll receive an audio for your morning practice.
You don’t need to prepare anything.
Bring yourself, find a comfortable place to lie down, and give yourself this hour.
You don’t need to arrive with a question. You don’t need to know what you’re looking for.
Simply come with an open mind.
The experience is included in my paid Substack membership, which is $50 for the year. Your membership includes Friday’s journey and the content I share going forward.

P.S. I’m also opening a few private 1:1 spots now that I’ve stepped into full-time work in my healing practice. If you’re ready to work with the patterns beneath the surface, reply to this email or book a call here.
