I had been having a rough ride in my life due to some persistent health issues. It seemed like an endless dark tunnel for me & just then I was introduced to Swasti. Swasti came in as a torch in my dark tunnel. She’s helped me clear negative emotions & thought patterns that stood in my way of overcoming my health & life issues. Swasti lit my life with positivity, confidence, clarity and calmness. I felt more energized, focused & clear during & after taking her sessions. She taught me how to amplify my energy healing skills to magnify the healing for myself & encouraged me to unleash my creativity to the outside world. I am so very grateful to Swasti to remind me of my own inner power, which laid dormant for too long. She’s a great healer, a wonderful mentor & a caring human being.
I wholeheartedly recommend her for your physical and/or emotional well being.
Thank you so very much, Swasti. I have been smiling more!
God Bless you!
