Today, I want to address a delicate but urgent subject: the possibility of World War III. As an intuitive and spiritual mindset coach, I've witnessed the escalating challenges humanity faces as we shift toward higher consciousness. This isn't just a theory—it's a reality I can no longer ignore, and it's one of the reasons I left a stable career as a therapist at a renowned Medical Spa. My calling is now to help people awaken to greater awareness, allowing us to move through these challenges with grace. Though it may sound unusual to some, I'm coming from a sincere and non-egoic place when I say that I’ve been entrusted with this role. As a spiritual guide, my purpose requires deep discipline, trust, and authenticity—qualities I will explore more in this blog. But for now, let's focus on the global chaos we're witnessing and how we can address it before it leads to even more devastating consequences. The Growing Global Darkness: Why World War III May Be More Likely Than We Think Unless you’ve isolated yourself completely from the world, it's hard not to see that global chaos is spreading rapidly. Between the ongoing war in Ukraine and Russia, escalating tensions in Israel, and the upcoming U.S. elections, it can feel as though hope is slipping away. But beneath the political conflicts and social unrest, there’s a deeper, spiritual issue at play. From a spiritual perspective, what many call "darkness" or "evil" is gaining ground. And yet, when you strip away societal beliefs, ignorance, and divisive opinions, I believe that the vast majority of people are genuinely good. Most of us want peace, joy, and a sense of purpose, but our choices don’t always reflect this desire. So, if most people are good, why is darkness spreading? What is fueling this growth? Fear, Worry, and Doubt: The Superfood of Evil Here’s where I want to take you deeper into the metaphor of darkness and evil. Imagine a horror movie about an exorcism. Whether or not you watch such films, the concept is familiar: a person becomes possessed by an evil entity, and a priest or spiritual figure is called upon to expel the entity. The key to their success lies in two factors: their unwavering connection to the Divine and their absence of fear. As a spiritual intuitive, I understand the incredible power of our thoughts. Our thoughts don’t just influence our personal well-being; they affect the world around us. Fear, worry, and doubt are the primary nutrients that evil thrives on. They are the superfood that feeds darkness. Evil’s superfood is fear—it’s the very thing that nourishes and expands it. And while we may strive to do good in the world, even the smallest amount of fear or doubt undermines our positive efforts and feeds the forces of chaos. How Fear, Worry, and Doubt Fuel World Conflict Think of fear, worry, and doubt like antioxidants for evil. These emotions feed negativity in the same way that unhealthy habits feed disease. No matter how well-intentioned we are, if we harbor fear or doubt—about our future, our security, or even our ability to make a difference—we contribute to the problem. The fear we hold as individuals contributes to the collective consciousness, and that collective energy has the power to create chaos on a global scale. This is why World War III is a very real possibility. It's not just a matter of political disputes or territorial conflicts; it’s a manifestation of the fear, doubt, and worry that humanity as a whole has been harboring for years. How to Eliminate Fear, Worry, and Doubt: A Spiritual Solution So, how do we stop feeding darkness and, in turn, prevent World War III? Here are three key steps: 1. Acknowledge Fear, Worry, and Doubt as Forces of Darkness: The first step is to recognize these emotions for what they are. Fear, worry, and doubt are not truths—they are illusions that keep us trapped in a lower state of consciousness. They are masks that prevent us from seeing the reality of peace and contentment that exists beneath the chaos. 2. Integrate Trust and Gratitude Into Your Daily Life: It may sound simple, but practicing trust and gratitude daily can transform your mindset. When you trust that the universe is working in your favor, and you express gratitude for the good in your life, you begin to starve the darkness. This shift in perspective will radiate outward, contributing to the collective good. 3. Cultivate Compassion for Others: Finally, we must learn to be compassionate toward others, no matter their behavior. If evil feeds on our thoughts, then it’s likely others are also battling similar internal obstacles. Compassion allows us to rise above judgment and create a space of healing, not just for ourselves but for the entire world. The Power of Our Collective Consciousness Remember, the global crises we face, including the potential for World War III, are deeply tied to the collective energy we generate. By addressing our own fear, worry, and doubt, we take a crucial step toward preventing further chaos. Every thought, every act of trust, and every moment of compassion adds to the positive energy that can heal our world.

Self-care has become a buzzword in recent years, and for good reason. As more people recognize the importance of nurturing their bodies, minds, and spirits, we’re seeing a rise in the desire to create lives filled with productivity, longevity, and sustainability. But what does self-care really mean? Is it just another trend, or is there a deeper, lasting impact we should consider? Why Self-Care Matters Imagine yourself as a plant. Sure, water and sunlight might keep you alive, but to truly thrive and reach your full potential, you need more—something like fertilizer. In this analogy, self-care is the fertilizer. It’s the practice that allows us not just to live but to flourish and bloom. Without it, we risk merely existing, rather than thriving. Self-care is often misunderstood or oversimplified. It’s not just about indulging in occasional luxuries or following the latest wellness trends. It’s about understanding and addressing the needs of your body, mind, and spirit in a balanced and holistic way. When done right, it can lead to profound personal growth and a deeper connection with yourself. Questioning Popular Trends: My Approach to Self-Care I’ve often been called a spiritual rebel, and I wear that label with pride. Why? Because I don’t just follow the crowd. I question the concepts that gain popularity, especially when they lead people to become followers rather than leaders of their own lives. It’s important to recognize that many of these trends are rooted in ancient beliefs that might not fully align with the modern world we live in today. Don’t get me wrong—ancient wisdom is invaluable, but it’s also worth asking whether some of these practices need to be adapted or reformed to suit today’s realities. Take self-care, for example. In many spiritual traditions, there’s an emphasis on raising consciousness and achieving higher states of awareness. But often, this comes at the expense of neglecting the physical body. In my view, true self-care involves aligning body, mind, and spirit. You can’t achieve the consciousness you seek if you’re ignoring any one of these elements. Yes, meditation and prayer are powerful tools, but are they enough on their own? Or are we spending so much time quieting the mind that we forget to challenge our limits and face our fears head-on? Making Physical Self-Care a Non-Negotiable As a coach, teacher, and influencer, physical self-care is not just a personal practice for me—it’s part of my job. I demonstrate that no matter how busy life gets, there’s always time for physical activity. My body, mind, and spirit are my marketing tools, showing that despite age or life circumstances, you can achieve your goals by treating each aspect of your being as equally important. But let’s be clear—self-care is deeply personal. While I may serve as an example of what’s possible, that doesn’t mean everyone needs to follow the same path. The most common excuse I hear from clients is, “I don’t have time.” We’re all busy, but if you constantly tell yourself you don’t have time for physical self-care, you’re only reinforcing a reality where you become a servant to the clock. This mindset will leave you with regrets as you allow time—a man-made concept—to rule your life. Reclaiming Time for Yourself Here’s the truth: time is an illusion. It’s an excuse we use to stay in our comfort zones, to remain victims of our own lives. Every week, no matter what’s on my plate, I dedicate one entire day to focusing solely on what’s good for me. I postpone the to-dos, knowing that the world won’t stop turning if I take a break. On this day, physical activity is a must. I push my limits, release negative energy through movement, and care for my body from head to toe. This includes eating well, staying hydrated, and doing something that physically pushes me—because that’s where growth happens. Science backs this up: physical movement gets the mind in order and slows down aging, allowing your body to be a partner to your spiritual and emotional self. The Growing Need for Intuition As we become more intuitive—an ability once dismissed as esoteric or mystical—we start to see the world differently. We begin to understand that allowing others’ negativity to affect us is a sign that our intuition isn’t fully developed. And I can confidently say that if this is happening, it’s likely because physical self-care is being neglected. No amount of meditation, yoga, or life coaching will bring you lasting contentment if you ignore the needs of your body. Conclusion: Embrace Self-Care Holistically Self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. It’s the foundation for a balanced, fulfilled life. So, ask yourself: Are you truly taking care of yourself, or are you just going through the motions? If you’re ready to find your niche in self-care and reach new levels of awareness and contentment, I’m here to help. Remember, self-care goes beyond following trends; it’s about truly understanding and responding to your unique needs.
