Dorothy Winter - Spiritual Healer

Dorothy Winter - Spiritual Healer Energy cleaning, Reiki Healing, Soul surfing- Trauma informed A healing treatment typically lasts 1hr-1.5hrs.

The client remains fully clothed, and covered with a blanket. The practitioner will then begin a treatment by placing hands on or above the body where energy is channelled. I work with the elements and the majority of the treatment (remote or in-person) is centred around energy abstraction and trauma recovery. During a treatment the client may experience feelings and sensations depending on their needs at the time. Everyone is different, and some clients may feel nothing at all. Some people feel sensations of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colours, whilst others can have an emotional response, indicating that shifts are taking place, and balance is being restored.

When I first learned Reiki I use to get my husband to lie on the dining room table and give him a treatment. I did this for a good few months until he surprised me with a proper table.

When I first learned Reiki my master back then said I needed to complete 10 case studies before being able to progress to level 2- so I did 30.

I was diligent about things being just like I was taught- lengthy consultations- being professional-looking right-making the room just right- basically being perfect.

The thing I most struggled with was the idea of being a perfect healer and therefore being good enough to be a healer.

I believed that healers were immune to life's stress, personal struggles and unhealthy habits. I believed healers were wise Zen masters who were able to work through and resolve all problems and therefore be the best for their clients.

This belief stopped me from seeking support for myself for many years because I judged other healers by this perception.

Perfect =safe.

When we seek out perfect healers with perfect healing settings or avoid healers entirely because you believe they dont emanate what the perfect idea of a healer is; we ultimately sabotage our own healing process. This is part of our built in survival response. We are always scanning for threat (and more so if you have or are experiencing trauma).

In a double edged sword I became very diligent about how I treated people- the perfectionism added to the intention of each session- curating, creating and adding to the the energy. But, it was also a bench mark I needed other healers to reach before I'd let them hold space for me.

Seeking support helped me grow, rest, release and heal. It also helped me to build trust with other humans and soften that idea of being the best.

Wanting to be perfect at what you do is hounerable but don't let it be the reason you don't start your journey as a healer or in fact get healing yourself.

There are always things we can improve about how we provide healing. But don't let that stop you from starting.

Courage is glue grit.
It rises in us to support us.
It's an energy of its very own.
It can show up in tough times, through change, when we advocate for our needs, in moments of self-acceptance, and in releasing what no longer serves us.

Courage has its own frequency: valor and truth. It is part shield, master and apprentice all rolled into one. Do we find it, or does it find us?
Do we create it, or does the unseen gift it to us?

In the system I work with, there is a simple golden symbol that we work with to encourage courage or stabilise and strengthen it within the energy field. It reminds me of armour, Camelot, and the battles in the stories of Narnia. It's very high frequency.

There are times in our lives, especially deep in the healing path where we feel desperate and lost. We have no capacity to move, change, or continue on. But, somehow courage arrives or rises from within our bones, to take one more step, make that phone call or simply, to keep showing up.

Fiveyears ago, I watched my mother ascend. In the days that followed I actively sought out to connect with her spirit and it was and still is the deepest and most transformative medative experience of my life.

I remember it so vividly that i can retell the story whilst feeling it within the surface of my skin.

The day she died, I was knee deep in sleepy rest, the kind I hadn't felt in years - so much so I fell asleep thumbing the pages of a book about pilgrimages.

I don't know if spirit was prepping my body to be delivered such news, but I know now had I been not me at that moment I would have disintegrated beyond reconnection.

The days that followed were the initiation gateway, and I landed, dropped within these darkened paths, into spaces, I have never trod. So unlike my father's passing I was told to find her.

I sat on my bed that I had been incubating and drifted into a land of the sea.

In the sea, I saw my mother, a water Goddess, enchanted. As I came towards her, we were pulled under by the tentacles of the Octopus. Down, down, down we went till it was ebony from corner to eternity. Down, down down, we went in the black till all sound was muted.

Then a sack. A fertile sack. Translucent in colour. Feet pushing against the membrane. As limbs out grew the the confines of this stretchy skin all dissolved.

And up, up, up, she rose and I facing her. Up, up, up until she burst through the choppy waves into the night.

The stars, the bright stars, millions in the vastness of space. The above hits the below. And my mum rose up with in it. And I saw her fly till she became the goddess of the sky and surrendered into dust and stardom. A star, an eternal star, made from the deep, the sea, the dark, and now shining.

Every day without her and her presence is perfectly felt in this memory, this vision, and I am blessed to know she is at peace.

The story goes that I was born in hallway by the front door. My middle sister saw it all and recounts how her job was to wrap my in a towel. She remembers how red I was and how I cried. Our neighbour (pictured next to my mum) was a midwife but was busy hoovering so didn't hear my mum phone her. When the ambulance came my dog Jed barked and wouldn't let them in. It was obviously a bit quiet in the news that day because I made the front page of the local news paper with this pic and the title, "BABY IN A HURRY".

And i think I've been in a hurry all my life, trying to experience everything good and bad as if the clock was ticking.

Happy birthday to me!

Mother Goddess, help me to be courageous and strong and to act unyieldingly towards my dreams in this coming year.
May this day be blessed with gifts, lessons, understanding, and friends. May my energy be a gift to all I meet. May I face the day with courage, kindness, insight, and compassion. May my spirit and body honor this day.
Mother of all things, watch over me this year. Hold me in your arms. Protect me.

Coldrum Long Barrow: built around 3985-3855 BC, making it approximately 6,000 years old and
predates the Pyramids by roughly 1,400 years and Stonehenge by 1,000 years---making it one of Britain's earliest stone monuments!!!!

I remember the first time we came here a man was lying on the grass of the barrow, outstretched in the sun. I remember the sense that I was disturbing his peaceful moment. The wish tree was LADEN with offerings.

After my husbands mother died he tied something precious to the tree. This was back before we knew better, before we realised prayers were often enough...

Various other times have been less harmonious. We discovered trees cut down, wood burnt from the surrounding fence, candle wax on the stones, plates smashed, and remsins of fires on the Earth.

And in paradox, another time we came and many families were having picnics, one was even toasting champagne out of luxurious hampers upon this burial site.

Today though, in the reclining snow, the stones felt mighty and powerful. Flowers from the Winter solstice were resting and decaying, laid with love it seemed. It was quiet. It was liminal.

The thing is, these old bones, these land sites of old bring all sorts of people to them. But, I always wonder about the people who were buried here, their stories, their lives.

Oh, I love the north downs. Something in me feels deeply connected to this space and I'm not sure yet what that is.

Cord cutting is essentially a ritual to no longer be energetically attached to a person, place, memory, program, contract ect.

Because it gets over used in vocab these days, the potency of it can feel undemined. But, like all things magic, when sought in full intention, it has the power to assist us in moving forward because we no longer carrying that energy with us.

If you want to sever energetic relations with whatever feels is weighing you down, you must also choose to purposefully not call it back by thinking/talking about them/it. That's a tall order, but an important part of the process.

There are many ways to cut cords. You could hold a piece of string and literally cut it in half, saying "all cords severed, never to return".
You could visualise cord in your tummy and use your etheric scissors to cut it, saying the above words.
You could use your imagination by putting a mirror up between you.
You could light a candle and so any number of the above.
Say thanks.

Cord cutting is not about recklessness, revenge or cruelty but a energetic hygiene practice for the higher self of all concerned.

See those of you who have signed up at the January circle

"I booked in distant healing for 3 reasons …
I live in Yorkshire & Dot lives down south so it’s a long way to travel.
I could have had a zoom session , however as an energy healer myself I have a propensity to put blocks in to stop anyone getting into my field and discovering what I may find uncomfortable… that’s why I intuitively knew that distance healing would work to keep my ego in check !
I’ve followed and interacted with Dot for a long time (she carved me a fabulous wand 😊) I love her energy and completely trust her.
So onto the session ….
6.50pm on a dark December evening ! there I am sat on my sofa with my dogs running around rather chaotically, for a fleeting moment I did wonder if it would work without the ‘in person or even visual effects’ but I pushed my doubts aside and decided to trust the process 😊…. What happened next was astonishing even to an accomplished energy worker like myself… I sat comfortably , closed my eyes and drifted into a meditative state… there I was just relaxing when I felt a surge of energy shoot through my solar plexus, I could feel hands on my stomach around my hips , there was lights going off around my eyes & flashes of scenes running through my third eye … I saw a vision of a white cloth with riders on horseback stitched into it … I could feel energy moving very quickly through every part of my body … at one point I felt like I was pushed against rocks avoiding a stormy sea …. These feelings went on for a while & then I just dropped into the ocean , basically stopped resisting and felt completely comfortable & safe … then everything went calm … I could feel the energy flowing gently through my body as though I was cocooned in a cloud ☁️😊… I could feel when the session was over and Dot’s energy disconnected from my field … I opened my eyes and saw a whole hour had passed. I felt really tired but calmed , relaxed & quite empty (in a good way ) as though all the knots & blocks had been removed … I slept like a log that night & was full of energy next morning the heaviness had all gone , this feeling has stayed with me for a week now ! If you are thinking about distance healing , give it a go & definitely go to Dot"
