As a spiritual being, you’ve probably heard the phrases “manifesting” and “allowing” and “holding space for” quite frequently… but have you heard of “permission energy”? Permission energy is something that, when embraced fully, gives you the ability to forgive and heal yourself.

Xandra describes permission energy as the way we can bring more openness, creativity, and relaxation to our lives, while also manifesting what we want without rigidity.

In this episode of Soul Essence, Xandra teaches you how to bring more permission energy into your life so you can manifest what you want with less stress and more trust.

Topics Discussed:
·      What does it mean to give yourself permission?
·      Why the frequency of permission energy is different than manifestation.
·      Overcoming the fear of opening up.
·      What happens when you don’t give yourself permission in life.
·      How permission energy boosts creativity, decreases stress, and releases self-judgment.
·      Why doubt is one of the biggest killers of self-trust and intuition.

“When people give themselves permission to feel their own essence, to feel that deep well of trust and to love in themselves, we actually start acting on that frequency, and it’s less about doing and more about sensing and feeling into a frequency.” 
– Xandra Hawes

Do you feel like your energy is tied to someone or something else? That’s something called an “energetic cord”. The solution? It’s simple… the solution is intentional forgiveness.

Forgiveness isn’t just an opportunity to let things go. Forgiveness is the path to true freedom, where you can call parts of yourself back that you didn’t know you’ve been missing.

In this episode of Soul Essence, you’ll learn how to harness the power of forgiveness and cut your energetic cords once and for all. Xandra sheds light on how energetic cords negatively impact your life and how she discovered a 15-year-old energetic cord she didn’t know she had.

If you want to learn how to use energy work to remove energetic cords, or you’d like to develop a customized daily energy practice to help you heal yourself with greater freedom and forgiveness schedule a Soul Wellness Coaching Session or Psychic Reading with Xandra at www.soulessencewellnesscenter.com/book-online.

Topics Discussed:
·      Why it’s hard for us to forgive and let go
·      Energetic Cords: What it means for your energy to be “corded” & How energetic cords impact your daily life
·      How to cut your energetic cords and take your energy back from others
·      The energetic cord Xandra unknowingly had for 15 years
·      What really happens when we wish ill on other people
·      Beating yourself up will never lead to healing…

“Forgiveness is often seen as a means to let go of something that has been painful or difficult and forgiveness is usually wrapped up, at least for me, in a sense of unworthiness, shame, or even resentment, depending on whether we have a hard time forgiving ourselves or forgiving other people.” – Xandra Hawes

We can’t help others if we can’t help ourselves. When we’re not embodying our truth and living life through love, we become codependent on other people to validate us.

When we love ourselves freely, believe in our self-worth, and feel certain about our spirit, we can ditch the codependency for good. Only then will we begin to emit a frequency that naturally brings healing to others. Pretty magical, right?

So, how do we overcome this undercover codependency and step into our spiritual certainty?

In this episode of Soul Essence, Xandra shares her personal experience with undercover codependency, shining light on the importance of aligning with your self-worth and honing your spiritual certainty.

Topics Discussed:

·      What is codependency?
·      How to recognize undercover codependency
·      Xandra’s relationship with codependency
·      Why spiritual certainty is an important skill you need to fully align with your soul essence
·      How to heal from codependency and step into your spiritual certainty

“Spiritual certainty simply means knowing I am a spirit that has chosen this body, this vessel, to learn and evolve and grow in. When I disregard myself as a spirit, meaning I turn away from my own core of love, I push away from the truth of what I really am.”
– Xandra Hawes

Many of us are afraid to look at our family systems and the different traumas we’ve experienced throughout our lives. When we investigate our family trauma, we may see where we were missed, ignored, rejected, or abused as a child. While that can feel scary, let’s choose love instead of fear.

“If we are unable to give love to ourselves consistently or we struggle often to feel enough, these difficulties are often linked to old invalidation stories that have been told to us or modeled to us by our family members.” – Xandra Hawes

By courageously looking at how your family has shaped you, you can lovingly acknowledge and heal your family trauma. You can find ways to let those stories go so you can create a new path that is built upon joy, peace, and radical self-love.

In episode 3 of the Soul Essence Podcast’s Self-Love Mini Series, Xandra helps you uncover where your first invalidation stories came from by exploring your family systems. She takes you through a beautiful, guided energy healing practice to release family trauma and return to self-love.

Topics Discussed:
·      Ignorance isn’t bliss when it comes to trauma…
·      How self-criticism is rooted in childhood and family trauma
·      How family trauma shapes your reality and your ability to allow self-love to be your truth
·      Preventing and stopping the cycle of intergenerational trauma
·      A simple, effective meditation for releasing family trauma and boosting self-love

Can you imagine a world where you know you’re enough every day, where you radically love yourself despite your mistakes? Can you imagine a world where you radiate compassion and love others despite their mistakes? This world is closer than you think.

Loving kindness is the core of who we are. We come into this world aligned in love and aligned with our true essence. It’s innate within us, so we can always come back to it.

But overtime, we separate from that love and true essence. So, we must learn how to come back to it.

In this debut episode of the Soul Essence Podcast’s Self-Love Mini Series, Xandra invites you to dive into a practice of radical self-love to help you come back to your true essence and tap into the energetic web we live in. She takes you on an immersive, visual journey to show you your soul essence and help you align with it.

Topics Discussed:
·      What is radical self-love?
·      What is the root of self-love?
·      How old stories and pictures get in the way of aligning with your soul essence
·      Shifts that happen when you get to the root of self-love
·      How to come back to your true essence anytime, anywhere

In future episodes of this 5-part series, we’ll explore internal and external invalidation, perfectionism, healing your family trauma and rejection, integrating your shadow, creating new thought patterns, and learning self-love practices to better manifest living in your truth. Stay tuned!

“If we can learn how to align with our true nature, break down our own invalidation, and align in self-love and learn how to honor ourselves, we will naturally treat others with a higher level of love and respect and the entire web of our society will shift.”

-Xandra Hawes
