Universe — SoulSyncNZ

After living in London for six years, I knew deep down, that something wasn’t right.

Even though I had great friends and was loving my job working as a Producer at a busy agency, every single time I got still and meditated, I’d get the same voice in my head. “Go home,” it said.

At first I ignored it; after all I was happy where I was, and although I missed my family, I wasn’t ready to move back to New Zealand where I’d grown up.

But as time passed on, the message became more & more persistent, coming now whenever I meditated or let myself be still. ‘Go home, go home, go home.’

I’ve always been intuitive. Whenever I met someone new or had to make a decision about a job or a relationship, I would get a strong feeling guiding me on what to do.
It turned out that my instincts were generally always right.

In fact, it was my instinct that made me move to the UK. I’ve had links to London my entire life. My Dad, Iain, was Scottish and my older sister, Amanda, lived there. At 27 years old, I was eager to travel and see the world, and London felt like the obvious choice.

It was while living in the UK, that I developed my connection to spiritually. I had discovered my happy place. I took numerous courses in reiki, mediumship and intuition at the London College of Psychic Studies.

I soon learnt that whenever I practised reiki, the whole room would become flooded in a beautiful, white light. My spiritual teacher told me it was because I had angels around me protecting and guiding me.

Now I knew that someone either my inner voice, a spirit guide, or even an angel, was telling me I needed to go home, and deep down I knew I should listen. Reluctantly, I handed in my notice at work and started to plan my move back to New Zealand.

Before returning home, I’d booked a trip to Porto in Portugal, to celebrate the 30th birthday of a good friend of mine, Alice. Right from the start the holiday was a disaster. We arrived in the worst storm since the 1880s, meaning the electricity was out in the place we were staying. We couldn’t get into any restaurants, and, weirdly, I kept tripping over my shoe laces all of the time!

On the flight home, the woman next to me was violently ill and then we couldn’t land due to heavy fog. Finally on the ground, Alice and I rushed to passport control to get our train back to London and my passport was declined.

This had never happened to me before and I could feel my patience was being tested. Then the strangest thing happened….the customs officer reached out and touched my arm, and when I tried to look at her it was almost impossible because she was surrounded by so much white light, so strong it was almost blinding.

‘You need to realise that in life obstacles are happening to you for a reason, and you need to trust in the timing of your life.’

And with that she opened the gate.

‘You didn’t think I would let you leave without your friend did you?’
she smiled.

It was several minutes before Alice and I could speak. She had seen the light around the woman too and we both felt as if the words hadn’t come from the customs person herself… it was as if she had been a vessel, from some higher force, passing on an important message.

A few weeks later I finally arrived back in New Zealand and truly felt at home, catching up with Mum, Dad and old friends.

I’d been back for three weeks when I went to a friend’s for dinner one evening. When we’d finished eating, they offered to make tea or coffee and I was about to ask for a tea when something suddenly made me change my mind. Again, I had the strongest gut feeling that I needed to be at home with my family.

I headed back to Mum and Dad’s and we watched TV for a while. Dad was a bit down because he had found out that evening that a close friend of his was seriously ill.

I wasn’t really enjoying the programme, so after a while I went downstairs to my room and put my headphones on. Very soon after this my Mum shouted at me to come quickly. It was Dad; something was wrong.

Again my inner voice was there: “There isn’t any time.”

The voice once again was right. My Dad was having a heart attack.

A woman from emergency services tried to talk me through CPR, as I desperately tried to save my Dad’s life, but sadly it was too late. I could feel my Dad’s spirit leaving us, and soon he was gone. He was only 70.

From the autopsy we learnt he had undiagnosed heart disease. We were all completely devastated; his death had changed our lives forever.

But now the message at the airport made complete sense. I’d been happy in London, but, as I’d been guided, I needed to trust in the timing of my life. A tragic obstacle had been heading my way and it had been my time to come home.

Fast-forward to 2019 & I have created my reiki business SoulSyncNZ whereby & I use my intuition and the magic of reiki to help others to transform their lives through the power of reiki and intuition.
