EssenceEdge ✨Into the Shadows we will go, to find your light so you can grow 💜 What Does Energy Work Do? Shadow Work & Aroma Freedom Therapy

WHAT IS SHADOW WORK?

I am an Intuitive Holistic Health Practitioner having worked with countless clients to help them create a life beyond the day-to-day stressors, aiding in awakening and finding inner peace. My services combine the spiritual (re-centering & balancing your energy, releasing blocks) with the practical (tangible steps & focus for moving forward) to give you a comprehensive healing & a way forward. Energy healing practitioners aim to restore the balance by connecting the conscious mind with the subconscious and engaging the spiritual and mental aspects of the body. It’s a holistic balancing act that treats the whole person rather than a single symptom in isolation. In combining multiple modalities, the healing energy goes to the root cause of an illness, ailment or issue to help relieve the outward symptoms by address the trauma that caused them. We all hold trauma in many forms, from ancestral, to birth trauma and even trauma we've witnessed. By shifting one's energy and balancing out our energy centers and meridian lines, we find the body starts releasing trapped areas of trauma that ignites one's own ability to heal themselves. Intuitive Life Coaching & Readings

In an Intuitive Coaching session, you are encouraged, inspired, intuitively guided and taught how to improve your own ability to access your own inner wisdom. Coaching can help when you are in need of greater balance in your life, needing help with relationship issues, or simply feeling ready for a personal, spiritual or professional breakthrough in manifesting your goals. Working with the divine gift of channeling, Tonya is able to tap into your personal spirit team to deliver messages pertaining to healing in the present! A process of diving into the subconscious that shapes our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is a practice of healing and self-growth which requires surrender and acceptance, it involves getting in touch with the parts of yourself that you've repressed. It is by no means an easy journey and offering compassion to the parts of ourselves that we have hidden away for so long is important. BENEFITS OF SHADOW WORK

When clients walk out of Soul Touch Therapy with Kari… they feel so alive 🦴✨

Don’t worry no skeletons were harmed in the making of this session. But if you’re carrying stress, tension, or emotions in your body, Kari’s work has a way of getting right down to the bones. 💀

Soul Touch Therapy isn’t your average massage or energy work. Kari blends intuitive touch, nervous system regulation, and deep energetic awareness to help your body remember how to let go. This isn’t about fixing you it’s about guiding your system back to its natural balance.

Think:

✨ Muscles softening without force.
✨ Nervous system shifting out of “fight or flight.”
✨ Energy blocks untangling in ways that leave you breathing deeper.
✨ That ahhh feeling that lingers long after you leave the room.

And unlike our skeleton friends here, you’ll walk out feeling more alive, more present, and more in tune with yourself than when you came in. 🖤

If your body’s been holding onto stress, emotions, or tension that just won’t quit this is your sign. Book a Soul Touch Therapy session with Kari and let your bones (and your spirit) thank you.

🌑 Energy Update: New Moon Solar Eclipse in Virgo

This Sunday we step into a powerful reset a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Virgo. 🌑✨

Eclipses bring truth and change. New Moons bring beginnings. Together, this moment isn’t about manifesting more it’s about clearing space so what’s truly meant for you can finally arrive.

Virgo invites us to simplify and reset:

🧹 Clean & declutter
✂️ Cut cords & reset boundaries
📖 Journal & release perfectionism
🌱 Start again from clarity

We’re still in the eclipse corridor (Sept 7–21) a two-week period of deep soul work. The Pisces eclipse brought emotional release; this Virgo eclipse brings order and purification.

Trust what’s shifting.
Clear what no longer serves.
Make space for the new.

✨ This is your invitation to step through the portal lighter, freer, and more aligned.

🌕✨ Grandmother Moon doesn’t just guide the tides, she guides us.

Whether you are in your maiden years, mothering years, or wisdom years, you are never outside of her rhythm.

For those who bleed, the moon often mirrors your cycle, new moon for inward healing, full moon for outward radiance. But for those who no longer bleed, the cycle doesn’t end. It transforms. The crone carries memory, vision, and a deeper spiritual fertility that is just as tied to Grandmother Moon.

This is why our traditions hold Full Moon Ceremony for all women to honor every stage of life as sacred, and every woman as cyclical, powerful, and in rhythm with the moon. 🌙

💫 On Patreon, I’m sharing a deeper teaching on how to track your energy with the moon’s phases, and how to reclaim your body as a sacred timekeeper no matter your age or stage.

Join me there for the full reflection.

🌊 The Consequence of Not Feeling (And the Power of Finally Letting Yourself)

One of the greatest illusions we’ve been sold is that if we avoid something long enough, it will eventually disappear. The truth is, energy doesn’t work that way. Energy including our emotions cannot be destroyed. It can only be transformed.

Every uncried tear. Every moment we swallowed our anger instead of expressing it. Every time we told ourselves “it’s fine” when it wasn’t. All of that emotion has to go somewhere. And if it isn’t felt, it doesn’t vanish, it gets stored in the body.

This storage isn’t harmless. Over time, repressed emotion becomes weight: tightness in the chest, anxiety without a story, chronic fatigue, pain in the hips, headaches, autoimmune flare-ups, and even illness. What we don’t process becomes residue, clinging to our nervous system and energetic field until it demands to be felt.

That’s why we get “triggered.”
That’s why outbursts happen “out of nowhere.”
That’s why people break down when they least expect it.

It’s not random it’s a cry from the body: “Please feel me so I can finally release.”

✨ The Healing Shift

What most of us don’t realize is that temporary emotional pain won’t kill us. In fact, feeling is what frees us. The mind tells us, “If I go there, I won’t survive.” But the opposite is true: when we go there, when we actually feel grief, anger, fear, shame we release it from storage. We stop carrying it.

The key is presence.
To pause.
To breathe.
To sit with what feels uncomfortable instead of abandoning ourselves in the moment it rises.

✨ How to Begin Feeling to Heal

* Notice the body first. Where is the tightness, heat, ache, or pressure? Stay there. That’s where the emotion lives.

* Name the feeling. “I feel anger.” “I feel grief.” Naming gives it form and what has form can move.

* Breathe into it. Imagine breath and light moving into the space of sensation. Let yourself tremble, cry, shake, or even yell if needed. That’s energy leaving.

* Trust the wave. Emotions come in waves. They peak. They pass. The intensity always lessens when you let yourself stay present.

* Integrate. After release, drink water, move your body, or rest. Your system has recalibrated.

✨ Why It Matters Now

We live in a world built on emotional avoidance numbing, distracting, scrolling, suppressing. But as the energy on the planet rises (and as eclipses, transits, and collective shifts pressure us), the weight of avoidance is cracking open. People are breaking down not because they’re weak, but because their bodies can’t hold the backlog anymore.

Your healing isn’t in thinking differently. It’s in feeling differently.

Letting yourself cry doesn’t mean you’re broken.
Letting yourself rage doesn’t make you dangerous.
Letting yourself grieve doesn’t mean you’re failing.

It means you’re brave enough to feel what generations before you could not.

And that choice doesn’t just free you. It frees your lineage.

🌹 So here’s the truth: You don’t need to fear your emotions.

You need to feel them.
That’s how you heal them.

✨ Protection Crystals: Which Ones + How to Use Them ✨

Not all protection works the same. Some crystals shield, some absorb, and some strengthen your own field so nothing can stick to you.

A few of my favorites:

🖤 Shungite: absorbs negative energy + EMFs, amazing for empaths.

🖤Black Tourmaline: the “bouncer,” deflects and transmutes heaviness.

🖤Obsidian: a mirror stone, powerful for shadow work + psychic defense.

🖤Smoky Quartz: grounding, stress-clearing, helps cut cords.

🖤Labradorite: the mystic’s shield, protects your aura while keeping intuition open.

You can:

✨ Wear them (jewelry for daily protection)
✨ Place them (home, office, car)
✨ Use them in rituals or grids for deeper boundary work

Crystals aren’t just pretty. They’re allies.

🫶🏽You can find a wide selection of these protection stones right here at Essence Edge. Stop in and let your stone choose you. 🌿

🌿✨ When Crystals Break: What It Really Means ✨🌿

Ever had a bracelet snap, a ring crack, or a stone suddenly break? It’s rarely random. Crystals are more than jewelry or décor, they’re allies.

Yes, sometimes it’s physical (elastic wears out, stones are naturally brittle like hematite or obsidian)… but the timing holds meaning.

✨A break often signals:

* A cycle of healing is complete
* The stone absorbed more than it could carry
* You’ve outgrown that frequency
* Or it’s mirroring stress, anger, grief, or energetic overload

Instead of just tossing it, pause:

Ask what was happening when it broke? Thank the stone for its work

Choose how to release or repurpose the pieces (bury, altar, or keep as a reminder)

Crystals don’t just “break.” They speak.

Dude’s Lesson on Love 🐾

Our old man Dude had surgery today. He’s been sick these past two weeks, and we’ve cried many times as the vets tried to figure out what was wrong. At almost 12 years old, for a half lab / half golden, we know every day with him is a gift.

But here’s what I keep coming back to: animals come into our lives to show us true love without conditions. They teach us presence. They teach us joy. And eventually, they teach us grief.

Dude has always been the happiest soul always right by our side. Even in pain, he still wears that doggy smile. He still tries to sneak bread off the counter when he thinks no one’s looking. He still gets into the cat food like it’s the greatest prize. His spirit hasn’t dimmed, even when his body has been tired.

That’s the lesson. Love fully. Stay close. Smile even when it hurts. And never stop reaching for the good things in life.

Our animals don’t just live with us they train us in love. They remind us that every goodbye is only possible because of how deeply we said yes to them.

So tonight, I’m grateful for every wag, every cuddle, every silly antic. Dude’s spirit is a teacher, not just for me, but for all of us. 🐾💜

Solar Eclipse | Sept 21, 2025

🌑 This isn’t a moon to manifest under.
It’s a moon to unmake yourself.

The Sept 21 Solar Eclipse in Virgo is clearing your systems, your stories, your spiritual performance.
You might feel tired. Flat. Triggered. Scrambled.
That’s not failure.
That’s a reset in real time.

Let it strip what’s not sustainable.
Let it end what no longer serves.
Let it show you what’s actually sacred.

Drop a 🧹 if you’re feeling the cleanup already.

🌕 Energy Update | Sept 15–21, 2025

Let’s talk about what’s actually going on this week.

It’s not just you feeling tired, wired, emotionally cracked open, or suddenly thinking about that thing/person/choice from 3 years ago.

Here’s what we’re walking through:

🔹 Mercury just entered Virgo

meaning the mind is LOUD. You might feel mentally scrambled one minute and crystal clear the next. It’s a detox of thought loops, stories, and over-processing. Let the mental noise rise… then let it move.

🔹 Venus is in Leo dancing with Ketu (South Node)

and she’s kicking up karmic dust around love, self-worth, expression, and what you’ve pretended to feel okay with for too long. There’s beauty in it, but it’s raw. It’s asking you to stop performing peace and start living from truth.

🔹 The Schumann Resonance spiked again

the Earth’s frequency is rising and your body feels it. You may be more sensitive to noise, energy, and people who feel “off.” That’s not anxiety that’s awareness.

🌑 We’re also inside an eclipse corridor

heading straight for the Solar Eclipse on Sept 21. This is soul-surgery territory. You don’t need to manifest under this moon you need to listen.

This week isn’t just about rest or rituals.
It’s about noticing what you’re done carrying, without needing a breakdown to let it go.

Let the emotional spikes pass without over-identifying. Let the clarity land without needing to explain it. Let the old timelines dissolve without calling them back.

You’re not broken.
You’re just being rearranged.
And it’s happening for your alignment not your punishment.

Trust what’s falling away.
It’s making room for what fits better now.

🌀
Drop a 🖤 if this resonates or share what you’re noticing in your body and energy lately. This space is for that.

🔥 Authenticity Is the New High Frequency

(Why ‘Love & Light’ isn’t enough anymore)

They told us love was the highest frequency.
But love without truth?
That’s just spiritual performance.

Authenticity is the new high frequency.
It breaks illusions.
It ends people-pleasing.
It calls back the real you.
