🐾 Dog Drama, Divine Timing & a Surprising Healing Formula That We Hope Is Wokring..

When You’re the Healer and You’re also the One in Crisis..

It’s been a season my friend.

🚨 Sensitive content ahead

The images below are graphic, but I’m sharing them to be real with you. This was one of the most difficult experiences I've ever been through, and I don’t want anyone else to feel as alone as I did. So if you’re ever in a similar situation, maybe some of the tools that helped me can support you too.

If you follow me on social, you know I’m still recovering from a fall I had while hiking out in the mountains of West Virginia back on Memorial Day.

It left me dealing with what I believe to be cervicogenic dizziness, stemming from whiplash when I fell off the cliff.

That fall tested just about every part of my central nervous system, my patience, and honestly, my ability to feel grounded.

And just when I thought I was turning a corner, something Holy Shifted again..

This time, it wasn’t me though who needed the healing. It was my sweet little bestie, side~chick, Penny from Heaven.

*Check out the carousel photos below

It started with a hot spot on her foot then a week later after we healed that with an all natural remedy and then her eye lid began to swell.

I thought maybe she scratched it or had a minor infection, so I went to one of my favorite gentle remedies: cooled ~ black tea bags placed gently over the eye (an old trick I learned from a holistic vet I admire).

If you’ve never tried it, it can sometimes help with minor irritation in pets and humans.

But within a few days, her eye wasn't getting better and things escalated fast!

I was terrified because I didn't know what else to do for her.

At this point her eyelid was so swollen. It ended up bursting. There was blood pooling in her eye and running down her tiny snout. I was beside myself, feeling helpless. I had already been to the vet and they put her on a steroidal eye drop solution 1 day prior..

But over the next few days, instead of improving, things continued to take a turn for the worse. Her skin looked even more inflamed. And then, to my horror, raw sores began to appear on her nose.

And no part of me was prepared for the level of fear, stress, and overwhelmed that washed over me.

I was waking up at 2 AM each night to give her eye drops, praying through tears, reaching out to my healer friends, all while trying to stay grounded and feeling anything but stable.

And you know what I realized?

Even when I'm aware I have so many tools…

Even when I do this work for a living for others…

Even when Spirit speaks in signs and symbols and inner whispers and I often feel like I can get answers when I need them..

There's still a bigger part of us where we can feel extremely lost.

But that doesn’t mean we are.

What Helped Penny and I Through?

Once we put her on what we thought was the right medication (after a second vet opinion ~ trust your gut, always).

All along I had been layering in the Spiritual + Energetic tools I’ve leaned on for years but honestly hadn’t used all of them in a while.

These were some of the things that helped us both:

🔹 Grounding Mats

These work based on the science of earthing, bringing the body back to its natural electric charge.

Penny's been lying on the grounding mat

*(photo above) every day and night, and I truly believe it's helped bring down her inflammation while also reducing the pain.

🔹 Tuning Forks + Bioenergetic Field Clearing

I finally remembered: Oh right… I do this type of energy healing work! Duh..🤦🏼‍♀️

Clearing her field with tuning forks revealed so much stuck, chaotic energy. It made a noticeable shift in her demeanor, and in mine.

If you’re curious, I’ll be offering a 3-in-1 Multifaceted Energetic Reset soon that combines:

✨ Bioenergetic Tuning

✨ Emotional Release

✨ and Deep Auric Field Cleansing & Balancing.

Bioenergetic Fun Fact:

Tuning forks work by sending sound frequencies through the body that help bring your nervous system back into coherence. It’s like giving your energy field a good brushing or energetic combing recalibration.

🔹 Essential Oils

In moments of panic, stress, and even guilt (for not knowing what was wrong sooner), I turned to the oils I trust most. They’ve helped me adapt, forgive, and find peace when nothing else could.

And it was fast!

One in particular I was guided to specifically use with Penny. It was. Rose. In meditation I was shown a beautiful building and growing on the front of the building was a traveling or trailing rosebush and it was climbing up higher & higher when I heard Spirit very clearly say:

"Get out your rose oil, open the bottle and just wave it in front of her to let her smell it. She'll either like it or she won't 'and then close the lid."

It seemed to instantly relax her body. *All floral oils are good for soothing & relaxation.

Rose is a very potent and powerful oil, and it is the highest vibrational oil of all the oils.

Rose Oil Wow-Factor:

Did you know it takes over 10,000 rose petals to make one 5 mL bottle of pure rose essential oil.

That’s why it carries the highest vibrational frequency of any oil on the planet.

Here’s the version I use and recommend.

If you’re sensitive, anxious, or easily overwhelmed I put together this emotional essential oil starter kit that can support your nervous system in ways that truly feel magical + get your feeling back on track in no time flat.

Let me know if you'd like help customizing your own collection.

🔹 Journaling for Spirit Communication

Yep, messages still arrive even when life feels chaotic. I journaled through the worst of it and received Spiritual guidance, reassurance, and peace of mind. And I really did find that helpful.

If you want a simple tool to connect with your higher self or Spirit through writing, check out this journal I created just for that purpose.

As of now we're Not Out of the Woods just yet But We're both getting a lot Stronger

Penny still has a great deal of healing to do, but this morning, she had a little sparkle back in her eyes. She woke up, wagged her tail, pulled on the leash to go out, and even ran down the trail. I could barely keep up with her.

That’s something she couldn’t do just yesterday.

Her eyes are still quite goopy and she still has the sores, but everything seemed to be slowly diminishing. Or so we thought..

Most importantly, the swelling and the bleeding had stopped.

I believed the antibiotics and the other steroids were finally kicking in.

You’re becoming even more resilient..

That was the Angel card message that kept on receiving. You're going to bounce back, Penny's going to bounce back & you'll both be resilient!

Although when you're going through something like this it's challenging to see the silver lining.

And just when I thought things were stabilizing, we were hit with yet another devastating setback as you can see from the progression in the image carousel below.

Penny’s condition worsened significantly, and the vet I had been working with no longer felt aligned with our path.

Whether it was a lack of capacity, compassion, or just a mismatch in communication. I was directed via text to find an emergency vet.

This information and the way it was handled left me feeling dismissed, like my intuitive knowing as her mama was being invalidated. And that hurt.

But rather than dwell in that energy, I held onto hope and my strong faith.

I prayed that Spirit would guide us to the right person, someone who truly understood both Penny’s needs and mine.

When we arrived at the Quakertown emergency vet, I was anxious, upset and doing my best to hold back the tears.

My poor little girl was suffering..

Plus you never know what vet you're going to get when you go in as an emergency case.

But Spirit heard me. We were met with a vet who was everything I hoped for: kind, calm, confident, and incredibly intuitive.

She immediately suspected an autoimmune condition triggered by a recent stressful event, (AKA Fireworks) and when she explained the symptoms and signs, it was like checking every single box.

Though the diagnosis wasn’t ideal, it finally brought some clarity, and with it, a much needed sense of peace.

Penny seems to be on the correct medication although we may need to adjust her dosage as we go.

(This is my happy little Penny from last summer when I was adjusting her bike basket.)

I continue to remain hopeful, even though it's really difficult. Because I believe in Multifaceted Miracles, and if you do too, I’d be so grateful if you’d keep my fur baby, Penny in your prayers

🙏🏻💖🐕

Seeing her vibrant, happy self return would be nothing short of a miracle and it would mean the world to me.

As someone who helps others navigate their own dark night of the soul, whether they’re grieving, healing from emotional or physical trauma, searching for grounded wellness advice or simply looking to beautify their world. I'm aware of how heavy the in-between moments can feel.

And let me just say this is the heaviest thing I've had to go through.

Watching a helpless animal suffer is sometimes even harder than watching a human being, because animals can't tell us where and how they hurt.

But I Believe that with love, faith, and the right support, healing is possible.

And miracles?

Well, they happen every day. And I'll continue to hold on to hope that all will be well for my little love buggy.

And in the meantime I'll keep you posted as this experience continues to unfold..

PS: If anything I shared could help someone you know, whether they’re struggling with their own healing, their pet’s, or emotional burnout. Please feel free to share this post.

That’s how we help each other heal.

With love and deep gratitude,
Lisa 🌻
