I recognize 19 out of the 29 in the list. And am unsure of only 1 about healers in my family. However; in a past life, I was trained by a Shaman and have always preferred animals and nature for solace and recharging of my spirit.
I also have always told people I am spiritual not religious and I’m in tune with the universe. However, after losing my husband and soulmate 2 years ago, I am having to fight my way back to my normal level of a tuning with the universe.
