Seeing is Healing

What is my highest service to the whole?

I love this question. Questions like this are not always meant to be answered directly but to open a channel for inner guidance to come through.

Recently, while contemplating this, a word surfaced in my awareness: healer. As I rested with it, another word showed up: seer. When I connected them, a wave of recognition swept over me. I felt seen.

Healing was never a concept I resonated with until I embarked on deep self-inquiry. I never thought I needed healing, let alone that I might be a healer. As my consciousness expanded, I began to see that the transformation work I’ve been doing—unveiling the true self and unleashing our full creative potential—is an empowered form of healing.

From the moment we are born, we accumulate layers of conditioning—beliefs, thoughts, language patterns, and behaviors—shaped by family, school, culture, and societal systems. Many of these patterns are misaligned with our true nature (non-self), yet they become deeply ingrained in our subconscious, shaping how we see ourselves, make decisions, and relate to others and the world. How often do we act out of should rather than want? Behind every should, there is a belief waiting to be uncovered and examined.

Without conscious awareness, these non-self patterns become more solidified as we get older. They block the natural flow of vitality, leaving us feeling constrained, heavy, or even stuck. Imagine moving through life each day wearing layers of ill-fitting clothes. Over time, we forget what it feels like to move freely in our own bodies. Healing is not about fixing what’s broken. Healing is the process of liberating ourselves from the entrapment of the non-self and returning to our true nature. In this sense, don’t we all need healing?

Healing begins with seeing—revealing the limiting beliefs, patterns, and narratives deeply embedded in our bodies. It requires the ability to witness with neutrality and acceptance, without judgment or agenda. Just as light dissolves shadow, when something is seen in the light of truth, it loses its grip, and healing unfolds naturally from there. By midlife, much of our healing journey is one of unlearning—dissolving the imprints and shedding the layers that are not us.

I have a gift for seeing— observing from unique perspectives, recognizing patterns, hidden dynamics, and root issues within people, situations, and systems. For a long time, I overlooked it because it came naturally to me. This is the paradox of our gifts: because they are effortless to us, we often take them for granted and fail to recognize them as something special.

In this moment, I see—I’m a healer and a seer. My highest service to the whole is to gently illuminate truth.
