What is WalkingOM?

What began as a simple idea during my spiritual awakening has transformed into my mission and a cornerstone of my life. In the early stages of my awakening, I was excited to forge deeper connections with others on a similar path. I envisioned a space where people could not only enjoy the physical benefits of hiking and walking but also dive into the spiritual—meditations in nature, open-hearted conversations over coffee about life’s challenges, and the magic that comes with newfound self-awareness. So, I created a Meetup group, but first, I needed a name. A dear friend suggested “WalkingOM,” and it just clicked. The name resonated perfectly with my vision. Done and done! I loved it!

Over the years, WalkingOM has evolved into something much more personal for me, reflecting the growth of self, and my abilities as an intuitive and Medium. It has become my mission and website. To me, WalkingOM means embodying the essence of peace, unity, and universal consciousness in every step you take. It’s about living life with an awareness of your connection to everything around you, being present in the moment, having an open heart and a clear mind, and allowing your actions to reflect the deep inner peace and spiritual alignment that OM represents.

In this state of mind and being, one’s journey becomes, in many ways, a meditation in motion—honoring the sacred sound of the universe, the sound of OM. It resonates through every aspect of your life. You “become” a beacon of light and love, inspiring others to find their own path to harmony, healing and personal fulfillment. This is what I hope to achieve, not only in my own personal journey but also in being of service to others.

In the light of darkness

There is a powerful quote by Carl Jung that resonates deeply: “One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.” This profound truth stirs the soul, inviting us to reflect on our own awakening—a transformative experience we never forget. It is as if we were handed a pair of sacred lenses, revealing the hidden depths within our hearts.

When we awaken, we often seek refuge in the embrace of the light, yearning for the warmth of enlightenment as we journey back to our true selves. Yet, those who tread this path of transformation understand that true growth blossoms from the shadows within. To make the darkness conscious, as Jung so eloquently puts it, is to honor the full spectrum of our being.

In these moments of profound self-discovery, we unearth the keys to our true potential, even when we resist. The lessons I have gathered along this sacred path teach us to embrace every step of our journey with grace, recognizing the divine balance of light and darkness. Without recognizing both, we miss out not only on finding inner peace but also witness the radiant brilliance of our souls.

Poem: Sands of Time

In the heart of an hourglass, you stand surrounded by the steady flow of time. Each grain of sand washes over you gently, a whisper of your journey. Memories unfold like delicate petals, seen through the lens of an observer, perfectly balanced between what was and what now is.

Each grain tells a story of transformation, much like the sands that are washed ashore, tumbled, and welcomed into glistening light. Beneath your feet, these softened shards form a mosaic of healing, signaling the dawn of a new journey, ready to embrace the light of another day. This is the cycle of endings and beginnings, an awakening to an eternal vastness, every turn of your landscape unfolding anew.

Poem: Boundless Skies

Purity resides in the heart, running wild like a child where pirates roam and dragons soar. Life blossoms in the tiniest wonders: a blade of grass, a flower to pick, the sky to gaze upon. In this realm, freedom cascades through every breath, as the mind surrenders and no longer dictates. The field is wide and vast, stretching beyond sight, soaring above the trees. Here, you are the observer, voyager, explorer, and stargazer.

Limitations no longer bind you in the slavery of defeat; instead, they lift you to wonder, curiosity, and hope. As the false mirror crumbles, an unveiling and rebirth are witnessed, reclaiming a song long forgotten. You embody timeless truth, pure in essence—you are home.

Poem: The weight of a feather

You have journeyed far, bearing the suitcase of your past and countless lifetimes. Every step, a testament to your endurance, each breath, a whisper of resilience. It is time now, dear traveler, to transfer its weight from rock to feather. Unzipped and peeled back are the burdens, no longer to be dragged or summoned as echoes of what was.

In the gentle twilight of one’s soul, you honor the reflection and its remnants that echo through the corridors of time, sending them kindness, compassion, and gratitude for the journey that has brought you to this sacred space now. Within a paused moment, you acknowledge the lessons, the scars, the tears. Each one, a page in your book, to be filed into the Akashic of your becoming. You place them gently on the shelf, their purpose fulfilled.

Grab laughter by the hand, happiness, and love as reminders that the climb is no longer. You awaken, woven into the threads of all that is. Time is no longer linear but ripples that encompass you, gifting you sight to open windows and walk through doors without hesitation or worry of where each step will take you. You trust, even when it is unclear where you are going. Faith and hope are all that you carry now, with love guiding the way.
