So much wisdom is coming to me from lessons learned in life, as I spend time in my creative imagination, writing this book. I’ll share some with you. Focus on your pain. Focus on your suffering. Right now. Scan yourself and find it. Focus on it.
Lessons Learned in Life Through Suffering and Expansion
Are you comfortable or uncomfortable with your suffering? Are you used to it? Are you used to sitting with it? What are your thoughts about it? Now… Focus on this instead:
What are the Gifts in this Suffering?
“NONE! IT’S TERRIBLE,” your ego screams at you. Amiright?
But sit still and listen.
What are the gifts? What are the treasures? What have you learned? What are you clinging to that you know you need to release? What are you fighting that you don’t want to give up?
Now deeper. Ask those last set of questions again… But in reverse.
What are you letting go of that you need to keep? What are you fighting that you want to give up? What aren’t you fighting that you know you need to fight? Where have you let yourself and others down? Where have you not spoken your truth?
I’m creating. I have pain. My pain informs me of my limitation. My limitation informs me of my EXPANSION.
What’s yours? How is your #pain trying to grow and expand you?
Sit with yourself. Be still. Listen to yourself. Listen. Silently. Shut your ego up! What is your divinity waiting to say to you?
Don’t let your ego tell you “you’re doing it wrong. There is no divinity. I can’t be quiet. I can’t get better.” Just tell it to shut up.
And listen. Because your truth is there.
I used to say (rather my ego would say), “Maybe I don’t want to meditate or listen to my higher self because I’m too powerful and I’m afraid of my own power.”
Really?
That’s just a genius thought there. Ridiculous. If you’re hearing yourself say that crap, your ego is totally in charge.
Because when you step into your knowing and soul calling, it’s F*cking phenomenal. Nothing will stop you. No pain. No suffering. No disease. No negativity. No ego. No parent’s voices.
Nothing will stop you when you’re driven with mission and purpose.
Just get quiet so you can find yours and be proud of the lessons learned in life through suffering.

Heather Hundhausen, a mind/body/spirit healer and facilitator, works with heart centered individuals who are ready to release their physical and emotional pain and reconnect their minds with their bodies so they can start living a life of passion and purpose. She assists people in making decisions in their lives by following their heart, mind, intuition and soul, from a place of being whole and in integrity.
With over fifteen years as a licensed massage therapist, Heather understands the connection between how someone's emotions can show up as physical pain. Using a variety of massage techniques, including neuromuscular therapy and structural realignment, she now does her ground breaking work by helping her clients to reach back through the pain and remember who they are to create wholeness and fullness.
During her years practicing traditional massage therapy, and while an intern working on her Masters Degree in Mental Health Counseling, she realized that people responded strongly when addressing their feelings and not just their thoughts. Working with this knowledge, she began to create an experiential environment for her clients, having them focus less on what they were thinking and more on what they were feeling. She discovered that when people began to release their emotions, they also released their physical pain. Heather is now passionate about helping people do just this so they hear their inner voice and then act upon their intuition so they create a new physical, mental and emotional life for themselves.
Heather’s authenticity, integrity, honor, commitment to her clients, and ability to create trust ensures that client's have a safe space to experience the exploration and release of their pain. Her clients say she is skilled at spiritual and emotional healing and is a great partner to have on the journey to contentment. As one particular client stated, “She opened my heart so the grief could emerge and then joy was able to fill that space.”
Heather is a popular speaker and workshop leader and facilitator, with one of her most popular workshops, “Connect on Purpose: Interpreting Your Body's Signals for Greater Wisdom and Empowerment” helping guide people to live their purpose, which Heather describes as “being able to take your talents and gifts and put them into action.” She is currently authoring a book and developing additional workshops, including a meditation group.
A licensed massage therapist, specializing in Thai Massage, Neuromuscular Therapy and Myo-skeletal Alignment Technique, she has a Masters Degree in Mental Health Counseling, is certified in Redirecting Children’s Behavior as a facilitator and coach.
