• Welcome: Hey everyone. I’m so glad you decided to join me for this course. To just give you a brief history of myself, My name is Danielle Strano. I have a Holistic Healing Center in pa. There are some free courses and challenges on the website. Ill add the links in the class. I practice reiki, meditation, mindfulness, yoga, and therapeutic art. These practices have absolutely changed my life. I feel this is a gift that can benefit so many people and I just want to share the hope that these practices give, to as many people as possible. When I started this journey, I was planning on focusing on children. Although I still strongly believe getting these practices to children is still extremely important, I have realized that families can benefit more if they are practicing together. These things aid in emotional regulation a great deal. I feel that is the first step to overcoming many of life’s struggles for both adults and children. As a child I can always remember feeling different, trying to be what everyone else wanted so I could fit in. I never felt good enough and was often told I was too sensitive. It was not a great way to feel as a child. This thought pattern went undetected because we can be very good at fitting in, when we need to. As an older child and adult, I continued to look for things outside of myself to make me better, smarter, faster, thinner. You name it. Eventually I lost myself completely, when I suddenly lost my father a few years ago. That was the darkest, saddest, and loneliest time of my life. When I look back, I realized that I never actually allowed myself to go through the feelings. I pushed them down and refused to accept it. I threw myself into work and opened a salon and barbershop and I completely avoided the situation. I knew at some point I would have to face this, I didn’t know it then, but it woke something up inside of me. A need to finally get to know myself and the world around me in a different way, what I want, and what truly makes me happy. A need to have the ability to trust in myself, to be able to count on me. Because at the end of the day there shouldn’t be anyone or anything else you run to in a time of hardship, but you…yourself. You have all the answers you seek within…if you only take the time to look. As my journey began on a path to self-discovery, I was able to get to know myself on a very deep and personal level. I started practicing reiki, meditation, mindfulness, art, yoga, and I am still finding new things that I can incorporate into these practices to aid me. As I practiced more and more, I felt something happening inside of me, I was changing, I started to deal with what happened and started to love myself. I was dealing with stress and anxiety differently, more calmly, I was not running on raw emotion and started thinking more positively. My soul had woken up… and the funny part is I never even realized I was improving. These practices are fun and engaging. It never feels like a chore. I owe my life to these practices. They truly saved me and brought me out of a very dark time. I found myself wishing I had known these things my whole life, I wondered how different things could have been had I first been taught to go within for answers. How many negative experiences could I have navigated better or with more grace and confidence? My mission is to share these life changing gifts with as many people as possible. We have more stress and pressure put on us now then ever before. Our kids are feeling this too. We as a society continue to push. We don’t listen when our bodies tell us to slow down, this has become the new normal. If you’re not always moving something is wrong. We must get back to simpler times. We must show our kids how to slow down and get in touch with themselves. These programs will instill confidence, coping skills, and a strong foundation for a successful life, for the whole family! The techniques you will learn here will create amazing changes in your life. The best part is it doesn’t ever feel like work. You will be getting to know yourself better through this process and becoming more aware of the world around you and the feelings inside of you. This is the beginning of an amazing journey of self-discovery and I am thrilled for you! If you need to reach me, please contact me via email or u may message me through the site. Ok ready? Let's jump right in, transform our lives and turn our dreams into a reality!
