As with most spiritual journeys, there is no beginning and no end. It’s about the realization and awareness of one’s spirituality in every moment of our lives. As a young girl, I have always been very introspective and sensitive to my own feelings about myself, other people and the environment, through observation of the things happening around me.

My biggest turning point in my life was in 2005 when I lost my grandpa to a hospital viral infection nad my grandma to cancer. Deeply devastated, I was so angry with myself, I felt that there must have been something I could have done to help them but at that moment I felt totally powerless against the situation. Do you understand the feeling, that there should have been something I could have done but I wasn’t aware of how to do it? The feeling went really deep inside me and I was determined to learn alternative healing, I just couldn't trust in hospitals and western drugs anymore!

And so my quest as a healer began. For me, life had no room for any more excuses, I just wanted to do whatever my heart feels, without worrying about how I’m going to take care of my expenses. I took up an energetic healing modality and during this course, I discovered during the last hour that I was able to feel my own chakras spinning! You can say it was quite an amazing experience as it got me totally believing in healing energies and how it could help heal the body of physical and emotional pain. Somehow, during my chakra spinning, I must have ‘opened up’ my dormant third eye chakra, which was also my sense of intuition or sixth sense in a clairvoyant way that I could also see the energetic imprints of animal spirit guides. I was transformed!

Armed with this newfound awareness and belief of the esoteric realm, my next big break was to set up a new holistic and yoga space now known as Faerie Forestrie with three other partners. Since then, I went through a myriad of experiences, ups and downs and met many people on their spiritual quests. I was lovingly guided by the Divine to expand my knowledge and consciousness through meditation and many other various healing modalities, including Shamanic journeying, Past Life Regression and many more. My life was never the same again when I integrated all these learning into my consciousness.

One of my biggest transformations occurred during one of my spiritual retreats in the beautiful Himalayans of Nepal in 2008, a sacred power spot on Earth, I felt a tremendous change in my energy levels during an initiation, the message from my spiritual guide was that I have re-awakened my gifts of clairvoyance and using my voice to heal. I was positively elated as I had always loved to sing, and it was true! My toning became smooth and powerful as I could hold my breath for longer periods of time. Those who have attended my healing sessions (tonal alchemy) would have experienced the transformative and penetrative healing power of my voice.

Together with my beloved partner Izad, in late 2008, I was guided to Sufism and a year later, we were initiated into the Sufi path by taking hand with a Sufi Master, becoming travelers in the mystical path of love. We have also set up LOVEHEARTS, a consultancy service for relationships issues and more. The rest is history.

“Thank you for taking the time to read about me and know who I am. Dedicated to serving humanity and sharing love and wisdom with all the souls who come into my life, I truly envision a world without illness and suffering, only LOVE for all my fellow travellers on Earth, including plants, minerals and animals. I am connected to all our elemental friends and everything in the Universe and may all of us walk our path of spiritual evolution in loving oneness with God. Blessings to all!”

Since young, when most of my peers were either busy with their schoolwork or hanging out with their friends, I was more interested in spirituality. From the age of seven, besides attending lessons in a secular school, my mother also sent me to a nearby mosque for religious classes. Due to my inquisitive nature, I developed an early interest in learning more about the other major religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, etc. As such, I gained a better understanding of the wisdom and essence found in each and every tradition.

I have always being very intuitive from a young age and my spiritual re-awakening begun in July 2007. Like a jigsaw puzzle, some of my life purposes are revealed slowly and beautifully, which led me to be more aware of my gifts. In early 2008, to gain a better understanding of the ‘New Age’ movement, I attended a workshop at one of the New Age centres in Singapore and went for a group spiritual retreat in Nepal after that.

Together with my beloved partner Gisella, in late 2008, I was guided to Sufism and a year later, we were initiated into the Sufi path by taking hand with a Sufi Master, becoming travelers in the mystical path of love.

I believe that most of the suffering and sickness in this world are not of a material, but of a spiritual nature and true healing lies in the purification of our hearts and souls, in removing the veils which cover our hearts. Only through the total surrender to the Will of God can we hope to attain true freedom and peace. In this way we may also come to understand and know of our true life purpose and of what the Creator has given to each of us when we were created and brought into this world.
