Intro Video
As a survivor of narcissism, one of the keys to surviving was NOT speaking your piece/peace.
Repression clogs up your throat chakra, your expressive energy.
You had to keep things bottled up.
Now, for your survival and wellbeing, you need to let them out, you need to speak your truth.
In healthy, balanced ways.
You need to heal your throat chakra/energy center to do this.
Because grief and anger are interconnected, you’ll benefit by taking the Heal Your Power Center class.
