What happens when the “light” of the New Age starts to feel more like darkness? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I sit down with Elena Smale to unpack her journey from being a Reiki practitioner and energy healer to fully surrendering her business and life to Christ. She shares how her sessions often felt powerful and transformative at first, but over time, she struggled with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and spiritual oppression. After encountering Jesus, Elena renounced Reiki, tarot, crystals, and other occult practices, experiencing true deliverance and the lasting peace she had been searching for. We unpack the deception behind energy healing, the demonic exchanges happening beneath the surface, and how Jesus alone brings real healing and freedom.
