All of us are born with inner wisdom and knowing. It whispers to us in times of indecision and doubt, gently guiding us to choose what would be best for our higher good. Sometimes it is hard to hear, sometimes we don’t want to hear and sometimes we aren’t ready to hear. Some of us hear it perfectly and wish we had the courage to follow it in faith and trust regardless of doubt and fear.

Raelene is one such person. From an early age she has been guided by her inner voice. This caused conflict and confusion when it clashed with her traditional catholic upbringing but it also began her journey of questioning and seeking answers that sat well with her integrity. At 15 she became interested in crystals and alternative forms of energy work. In a sense it was her first awakening and it opened a whole new world for her. But at home she felt like a purple sheep in a flock of white.

Her instinct went into overdrive once her children came along. This channelled into a passion for nutrition in Raelene’s bid to serve and support her children the best way she could. If you are what you eat then Raelene wanted to ensure her children only ate what was fresh and alive. It kicked in again when it came to deciding whether to vaccinate or not. Injecting her children did not feel right to Raelene and after much research, she decided not to vaccinate. Despite the backlash over this from family and society, she held strong. Her inner voice on this matter was undeniable. To support her decision and to support her family in being healthy and strong, Raelene went on to do a diploma in herbal medicine and completed reiki 1 and 2. All of these choices were threads of a journey that would eventually take her to where she is to day.

Raelene’s life took a bit of a detour when she ventured into the world of fitness and became a gym instructor. In fact she became obsessed with exercise and her inner voice became lost in the addiction. It wasn’t until her son became ill that Raelene was gently guided back to her path. Her son was told that he would have to be on medication for life. Not happy with this diagnosis, Raelene took him to see a man who practised chinese medicine. With Doug Davies’ expertise and instruction her son was eventually able to go off the medication for good. When Raelene also had a couple of sessions with him and experienced first hand the importance of energy flow and wisdom to the whole being, awakening number two occurred. She knew this type of work was what she was destined to do. This man became her mentor and teacher. He showed her how to gain access to her soul and helped her to find herself. She states ‘I made a decision then to step out of fate, and step into my destiny’.

Destiny took her to the Sunshine Coast where she has lived now for the last 15 years. A friend asked Raelene to help out in her clinic doing massage and it was here that Rae first started hearing the words of something bigger than herself. While massaging she began to receive information about and for the people she was working on. Not understanding what she was experiencing she went into fear and kept the information to herself. But Spirit wasn’t going to let it go that easily. And during a trip to the ‘Mind, Body, Spirit Festival’ a number of independent but related incidents confirmed to her that energy work and the higher guidance she was receiving were part of her purpose.
From then on, Raelene’s life has been dedicated to serving and supporting Spirit and her clients. New and wonderful experiences, people and learnings flooded into her life. ‘Coincidences’ and serendipitous events unfolded, taking her to levels she hadn’t thought possible. Her intuition became stronger and clearer. Over the years Raelene has refined and redefined her energy work techniques, developing her own unique expression of healing and helping. The more Raelene surrenders her journey and work to Grace the more she is unexpectedly and ‘magically’ supported. This includes an extraordinary group of women that attend her meditation group who are mentoring her in business.

The meditation group is one aspect of Raelene’s holistic work. She also conducts workshops on a variety of energy work, runs retreats as well conducting her clinic from home. Raelene insists that we all have the ability to follow our intuition and tune in to our higher wisdom. We just need to look for the signposts.
She finds such joy in guiding people to heal and follow their own guidance.

The most recent path on her journey took her to Sedona, America. Together with Jeremy Donovan an indigenous healer, storyteller and performer, Raelene took a group from Australia to be a part of ‘The Return Of Ancestors Gathering’ which brought together Indigenous Elders, Shamans and healers from around the world. However this was just one component of an amazing trip. Although there was an itinerary, Raelene and Jeremy trusted the guidance that flowed to them in the sacred places found in Sedona. They found that amazing and inspirational people were drawn to their energy and integrity, and offered them experiences and healings that are not readily given to tourists or persons outside of the tribe. It was ten days of ceremony and ritual, of inner work and discovery, of community and communion. Raelene says ‘When you allow people to access their own magnificence and to connect to All There Is, there are no limitations.’ And it seems this view was shared by the group involved as the following testimony attests –

“Dearest Raelene and Jeremy,
Thank-you for gathering this amazing group of beings for the Soul Soaring Tour. It was everything and more the brochure said it would be.
The Magic and synchronicity of the 10 days made a believer out of me, that we are always being guided by the divine. We only have to be aware and open to the Magic that is all around us.
I was amazed at how people were drawn to you and Jeremy because of your Love and light that would wrap around everyone like a warm embrace. People were willing and able to do everything in their power to make this Soul Journey all it could be.
We laughed, cried ,and shared in a warm and safe loving environment. You created a safe and loving space to be all we could be. We challenged ourselves and seen what we were made of. I loved the climb of "Bell Vortex" after our Ceremony. The challenge and trust in myself superseded my expectations.
Trust was one of issues I went to Sedona with....and I was presented on numerous occasions to let go and trust. The Love and Safety of this group was something I never experienced before.
The Sweat Lodge was another beautiful experience. Going to the Navajo community to sweat with the people was very humbling. Being invited to share a meal and their culture at their home was an honour I will never forget.
And all the hugs from the group........How amazing to feel unconditional love come pouring out of everyone.
Before coming to Sedona, I felt like I was in the desert without water for years.....when I left the Soul soaring Tour I felt replenished.....like I was standing under a water fall made of light...Love....and water.
I could go on and on about this amazing experience...but you would probably need a book to put it all in.
Thank-You once again for allowing me to stand in my Power and to be all that I can be.
Live Love Laugh
Rachelle”

The trip was so successful and beautifully unfolding that Raelene and Jeremy are planning three trips a year. Raelene says there are really no words to describe the experience, it was beyond words.

Although Raelene is working from complete trust and connection with Spirit she is incredibly down to earth and practical, as is her advice and direction. She says ‘The work I do comes from honesty, integrity, simplicity and the belief that we all are able to live in a state of peace and happiness.’ Life blesses Raelene and in turn Raelene blesses many people both as clients and friends. In the Spirit of service and support Raelene continues to listen to and be guided by her intuition, and then on to the next gorgeous adventure.
