Psychic Attacks

Three possible understandings of what this phrase means and what you can do.

Not everyone means the same thing when talking about “psychic attacks”. I myself have used this phrase when I’m feeling amped up with negative emotions but I don’t have a story to explain it. Sometimes that ends up that I’m feeling the energy of the world/collective, but on occasion it has been an actual psychic attack.

This is how I’m working with psychic attacks when clients ask for help with this topic:

1. Negative energies sent by other people

   Someone sending negative energy such as criticism, shame, blame, domination in your direction and you feel it. You might have a sense of who is sending it, or you might just feel weird, rather like your space is getting invaded and you’re uncomfortable. Some people call this “offensive energy”. Which we can also do to our own selves.

2. Conflict shocks and trauma responses masquerading as psychic attacks.

   You’ve been attacked, harmed, hurt in ways that imprint in your brain, making you feel more susceptible to nefarious energy. It might not be anyone or anything doing this to you now, but your brain/nervous system is on high alert, which sometimes has the frustrating effect of bringing this to you. Predatory people sense fear in scared people, and it becomes magnetic. If you live in fear, you can bring these people to you, looking for either proof that the world is terrible and horrifying, or looking for a corrective experience.

   More about fear, anxiety, and high alert nervous system.

3. Negative beings and spiritual interference.

   This can range from mild irritation to causing severe problems - illness, financial ruin, destroying relationships, suicide. These beings might show up in bad dreams, causing a ruckus in daily matters, or amplifying your weak emotional spots. If you tend towards anxiety or anger, for example, it can be heightened and exploited by non-beneficial beings.

A question to ask yourself - please consider with compassion:

What in me is allowing or matching this energy? It takes a lot of growth to get to the point of not allowing it - we’ll all be Buddha or Mother Mary when we get to this point - but exploring this question will lead to great healing.
More about soul-level healing here.

Solutions:

Commands to connect to the one true divine Source. Ask for clarity to be shown in waking or dreams the deepest layer of truth in what you’re experiencing. Commands to clear all unsafety and unworthiness energies. Energy healing sessions + divine pendulum testing to get to the root of what’s going on for you.

What am I missing? How do you perceive and understand psychic attacks?

Emotional causes -> physical symptoms

When physical symptoms won’t resolve

Isn’t it frustrating when you have a physical issue, you know there is an emotional component or trigger for it, yet you haven’t found the way to resolve it yet?

What is it for you? Back pain….tooth decay….memory loss….bone loss….digestive issues…allergies….thyroid imbalance…perimenopause, menopause symptoms…

The frustration of emotional roots

I remember when I was thoroughly immersed in IFS practices, and knowing that emotions were somehow connected to various aches and pains, but I couldn’t quite get to the root of it.

Cold sores as a manifestation of shame. A terrible infected ingrown toenail connected to new motherhood. Frustration that I could make the connection, but I couldn’t get them to heal, even with applying IFS + acupuncture, homeopathy, etc.

Understanding the body-mind-spirit connection

I’ve been so delighted to make the more formal acquaintance of German New Medicine, another way to identify predictable patterns in body, mind, and spirit.

Of course, you all know I’m not a medical doctor and I’m not diagnosing or curing anyone. And it’s really ridiculous to think that healing only happens under the care of a doctor. * Your body/mind/spirit hold the keys to healing, YOU do your own healing, and it’s a matter of finding the right support people and/or the right systems and frameworks that allow this to happen.

I love this system of German New Medicine very much because it explicitly comes back over and over to the understanding that the body is bio-logical. Our bodies react logically to threat, loss, and suffering.

What are “conflict shocks”?

It all centers around “conflict shocks”:

• an event that’s impactful enough that it leaves an imprint in the brain;

• causing the body tissues to respond in predictable ways;

• imprinting beliefs in the psyche based upon how we interpret the event.

I’ve been so pleased that the style of energy work that I use addresses conflict shocks quite efficiently.

Symptoms I’ve addressed for me, my family, and clients recently:
- foggy brain
- tooth decay and mouth pains
- shoulder hunching/rounding
- watery and itchy eyes
- allergies
- tummy upset, digestive issues, stomach cramps
- esophagus burning
- neck and throat discomforts

I really love how the body brings us on the path of depth and healing. We might be able to ignore the spiritual and emotional symptoms - but when the body speaks, it’s much harder to avoid.

Getting curious, listening, and finding the right tools for full spectrum health will bring blessings.

Blossoming from physical symptoms to more vibrancy in every way

⇝ Healing your digestive issues bring you to better boundaries, which ripples into healthier relationships.

⇝ Addressing teeth and mouth problems connects to nervous system health.

⇝ Getting to the root cause of your shoulder tension allows for deeper flowing in and with life.

⇝ Helping your foggy brain brings you to more meaningful choices.

⇝ Healing acne leads to more confidence and self worth, and not because your skin looks better, but because your skin was reflecting something in your emotions and psyche.

And so on. There’s predictable patterns with the physical symptoms, but each person is unique in how that healing will flow into growing and flourishing.

It’s not about being louder

Communicating with truth and power.

Letting go of FORCE in your communication will actually enhance your effectiveness.

As our hearts break as more and more societal illness comes to the surface, as the hidden power dynamics become visible and known, the yelling and chaos seems to build.

We all grapple with the reveals, the changes, pinballing from one disaster to another.

What Happens When the Throat Becomes Free

Freeing your throat and voice channel brings the body, mind and spirit into coherence. Actions and communication from this alignment tap into true power, the kind of power vs force.

Force = yelling; the shoulds

Power = silence, a whisper, a sigh, embodied words, singing, grieving, keening, wailing, linking arms, presence.

It’s Not About Volume, It’s About Coherence

It’s not about the volume. It’s about the coherence, the inner agreement, tapping into your soul level.

We might try to “get it right”, but even that is a trap. It’s not about doing it better, getting it right, perfection.

I daresay we’re in a time of surrender and taking the risk to try something new.

Your Voice-Throat Portal

Laura Kimmel, and I will be leading Your Voice-Throat Portal - energy healing and interactive sessions.

If you know your throat is blocked, the emotions don’t flow,

If you have a thyroid imbalance,

If you think and talk more than you feel,

If you freeze under pressure, you lose the words when it matters,

If you want embodied presence supporting all your sounds,

If you want to let go of perfectionism and enjoy and express,

Then let’s talk. Laura and I are putting together Accelerated Expansion packages. Be first on the list to apply.

Freeing the throat - leading from the heart, opening the flow for courage, clearing the path for more of YOU.

Head + Heart vs AI

Why human wisdom goes beyond AI

Artificial intelligence is top of mind for many, bringing questions - what is humanity’s role, purpose, what are our gifts, and what choices do we make in relation to AI.

Head plus heart = greater than AI.

As the "intelligence" of AI grows, it already, at times, surpasses certain human brain power. The greatest chess champions bested by Stockfish for example.

But the brain, in partnership with our nervous systems, sensory abilities, heart, and spirit = unique and unbeatable. AI will never come close to our human gifts in this way.

When AI mimics human connection (and why it feels strange)

Yes, AI has learned relational soothing - but holy moly, doesn't it feel weird when AI tells you how wonderful you are???

It makes me laugh when Chatgpt affirms my style of writing.

It's so absurd. And yet can feel weirdly alluring when in vulnerable moments.

Living with AI

I'm not anti-AI, though I'm strongly distrustful and very cautious about it. For me, it helps with tech problems.  I just used ChatGPT last night to learn how to do an automation thing for this newsletter. It’s so funny to me how it says “you’re in the perfect place….good catch….this is the moment where most people get tripped up…”

Laura makes very beautiful decorations with it, and we're using AI-assisted pictures for this Throat-Voice Portal. I love what she was able to do in partnering with AI. (Take a look at our webpage to see the pictures!)

And really, AI is woven into so many things now, we can't actually avoid it unless one goes off grid.

The limit effects of AI

I see us playing in the AI field, which has limits and layers. We’re in a sort of box. There are layers of AI that we don't know about or maybe called conspiracy theories at this point. We can't necessarily UNDO these layers, at least at this moment in time.

What we can do is choose to expand beyond those layers into more organic, cosmic energy. This energy has no limits to it.

The multiverse that AI keeps us contained in, has limits and lots of control. Lots of suffering. Lots of feeding off of human suffering. This reality does not want us to realize there is a bigger, vaster reality, with more potential, more enjoyment, and much more freedom for us.

So rather than avoiding it, and also rather than embracing it, we need to amplify our own human gifts.

Our next level of expansion

The "I-think, therefore-I-am" model dominated certain areas of the world since the Enlightenment - believing brain power elevated us above nature. This led to many problems but also some fantastic problem solving.

I think we’ve reached our limit in this realm of head being supreme. What’s the next frontier for us?

The power of Head + Heart + Spirit

Our special package of head + heart + sensory abilities + spirit, this is where we excel.

This is our human gift. Freeing and inhabiting all these aspects of us, this is the pathway to expansion, freedom, expression, and joy.

Why the throat portal matters

To reconnect the head and heart, freeing the throat pathway becomes essential.

Our ancestors and our souls have learned severe lessons about speaking up, speaking out, taking stands that led to extreme endings, violent endings. These still live in our energy fields, and our neck, throat and voice remember.

Fortunately we have amazing tools to release these old energies and adaptive patterns. No matter how you address your throat - bringing voice here brings healing to your whole being. While the Throat-Voice Portal first round has ended, you can work with me 1:1 in Inner Artist sessions.

And coming soon - accelerated transformation packages with Laura Kimmel and me. Email to be top of the list for applications. Marta@InnerArtistry.space.

When pressure brings up panic

The connection between stage fright, anxiety, and past lives

Do you know this situation:

Sweating, shaking, cotton mouth, you need to pee. Your brain doesn’t feel right. You can’t find your thoughts, much less put them into words.

You want to hide….but you’re a grown up, so you force yourself to stay and do the thing you planned to do.

<<You might call this performance anxiety, stage fright, introversion, or high sensitivity.>>

What is it for you - music performance? A pitch to your boss? A group presentation? Sharing your ‘elevator pitch’? Someone simply asks you a question that puts you in the spotlight feeling? Going to a networking event? Interpersonal conflict?

Why pressure brings up panic

All of this is normal human response to pressure. Our conscious brain keeps saying “what’s the big deal, this is no problem, I can do this!”. But your body says otherwise.

When anxiety just doesn’t make sense

In preparation for the Voice-Throat Portal so much past life has come up for healing. Performance anxiety, stabbing pains in my back and lungs, pain and a rash on my earlobe. Weird stuff - but each time it’s tracing back to a bad ending in another lifetime.

Many of us have this - violent endings in other lifetimes leaving imprints at the soul level. Many have to do with the neck and throat area. There’s something in you that remembers, keeping you on high alert, and sending you into panic when under pressure.

While the energy healing week has ended, Laura and I are continuing our collaboration. Accelerated transformation packages available soon. Email to get first opportunity at an application. Marta@InnerArtistry.space

December Hangovers

How are you faring, keeping your heart protected, yet soft and loving, yet engaged with what the world asks of us now?

For me, depression has risen to the surface. I don’t usually experience depression, though I’ve noticed it as a January experience for several years in a row. I have theories…

For example, the boomerang of excess in December, to our cultural norm of austerity in January.

Plus of course, less sunlight, less movement.

Our bodies ask for rest and renewal at this time of year, polarized with our cultural expectation of keep going, never stop.

And the intensity of the world is bringing so many ugly and painful things to the surface externally, it seems that many buried things in me are coming to the surface as well.

There’s a generous side to this December hangover - it brings to the surface our shadows, our baseline imbalances, our depths that ask for help. The roots of our shadows are accessible.

I’m finding this time very fruitful in energy work. I’ve had a number of days in a row of waking with fatigue, one day I was so foggy I felt that I needed to go right back to bed. But instead, in choosing energy work, I’m realizing that the fogginess and tiredness are signals, getting my attention for deep needs. Each day I release more and feel more free and more excited about life.

I invite you to join me in a week of energy healing - Winter Light - for releasing fatigue, depression and grief. In these group experiences, we can cover so much more territory in 7 days than in individual sessions, and more affordable than my private 1:1 rate.

While we all may need to grieve our current human condition, this energy healing week will help the grief move and release gently, and we can dissolve some of the griefs built up through the centuries of your soul lives and ancestral burdens.

Many of the griefs are ready to release without conscious awareness - this group experience is excellent for these buried grief energies.

However you choose to move through these tender and intense days, I wish love for you and for you to be held in deep care. We all need help right now, and may you find just the support and connection you need!
