Healing, Insight & Awakening: My Transformative Experience at the Mind, Body & Spirit Festival 2025

Attending the Mind, Body and Spirit Festival was a truly transformative experience. From engaging with seasoned healers to gaining insights into astrology, past lives, and Reiki, I left feeling inspired, awakened, and more connected to my spiritual path.

Reiki with Chia: Universal Energy and Deep Healing

One of the most memorable moments of the festival was experiencing Reiki with Chia and working on her stand. I learned that Reiki is a form of energy healing that works with the chakras, and it can be particularly helpful for anxiety, stress, and emotional healing—such as after a breakup. It’s a universal life force energy. Chia, who has over 20 years of experience and is also a qualified hypnotist, uniquely combines Reiki with hypnosis for deeper healing.

She offers three levels of Reiki courses, which piqued my interest. During my session with her, I was so relaxed that I actually fell asleep! I also learned that when a Reiki practitioner gives healing, they themselves are also re-energised. There are many different forms of Reiki—I realised this when I experienced a warm and fiery sensation from another practitioner. I realised I could adapt my own skill set to educate others about reiki and its benefits.

Meeting Incredible Healers: Trusting My Intuition

The festival was filled with incredible people, and one standout was a healer named Chet. He works with angelic energy and encouraged me to trust my intuition more. He even prompted me to do an energy reading on him—and I was able to give him advice too! He returned the favour with a healing session and some powerful insights into my life path, my gifts, and even delays I’d been experiencing (including driving!). After this, my trust in my angels deepened profoundly.

Insightful Talks and Workshops: Saturn Return & Astrology

The festival’s talks and workshops were just as enlightening. I attended one on Saturn return and learned that as a Pisces, I had been under Saturn’s influence for the past two years. This period brought lessons in resilience, patience, boundaries, and karmic payback. Suddenly, all the delays—including not passing my driving test—began to make sense. I’m relieved that this challenging phase is over and hopeful that things will now begin to flow more smoothly. I know my fellow Pisceans will understand!

Past Lives and Soul Connections

Another fascinating session was a talk on past lives. Listening to others share their profound, and sometimes painful, past life experiences made me reflect on my own soul journey. Through a session with hypnotist Victoria Lipinski, I was able to see five of my past lives. I recognised many familiar faces from this life: my mum, dad, sister, little sister, ex-partner, and even someone I once dated. It was a powerful reminder that we often travel through lifetimes with the same soul group.

My higher-self came through with wise messages about forgiveness, following through on my ideas, and remembering that love is the foundation of everything we do.
