Navigating the Complex Losses & Grief
The Contemporary Medium
This episode takes an in-depth look at how to navigate complex loss and grief. It’s important to recognize that each individual will grieve differently after a loss. A loss could be anything. It’s not necessarily losing a loved one from the physical world to the spiritual world. With every loss there is a opportunity for personal growth. However, not everybody sees a loss as a positive catalyst in their life and we must honor that if it’s someone else’s story. It’s critical that you remember your experience through your own perception and don’t let anybody else dictate what that...

87. Mediumship Series: Create More Harmony and Strengthen Your Intuition
The Contemporary Medium
Creating more harmony in your life and strengthening your intuition go hand-in-hand. When you're working on strengthening your intuition, you have to clear up your energetic space. Whether at your home or in a work environment, it’s very important to be able to maintain that quiet space and do things that make you feel better to keep you in that high vibe space as much as you possibly can. You know how things could ebb and flow. Everybody's work situation is obviously different, as much as their home situation is as well. But you have to do what you can to make sure every moment feels good...

86. Mediumship Series: The Contemporary Medium
The Contemporary Medium
Today, I wanted to talk to you about what it means to be a contemporary medium, and I will also share the answers to the questions that you all submitted on social media and through email. After a very wild 2020 and 2021 with mentorship growth, it has become such a critical piece of what my work is. And so, I always like to reflect on what I'm learning as I'm teaching, and what's the next best step with my offerings. What I truly wanted to do this year is to just take this to a completely deeper level with a contemporary mediumship course, where we will incorporate more soulful mediumship...

85. Mediumship Series: Fear and Doubt with Mediumship and Everyday Life
The Contemporary Medium
As a medium, fear and doubt are two crucial things that you must learn to face and work with to prosper. But we all know these limitations affect all of us in everyday life as well. Fear and doubt never fully go away but there are ways to learn to push through them. We all handle certain situations differently, but by just showing up, pushing through, and doing your best, fear becomes not so powerful. You are going to have challenges, but those challenges don’t define your abilities or your self worth. Doubt and fear present themselves with family, relationships and in work life. Remember...

84. Mediumship Series: Signs You Are Experiencing a Spiritual Awakening
The Contemporary Medium
During a time of intense soul searching, learning to make the most of the present moment and doing the work for yourself is of the essence. Fundamentally, a spiritual awakening is choosing to live a more awakened and aware life to allow you to be closer to yourself and others through love and higher consciousness. Making new choices that are higher vibrational and that resonate with your soul is one step to this process. If you pay attention to your body and make decisions from within and what feels right to you, then you have to stop worrying about controlling the outcomes. When you...

info_outlineAlex Tolan is the kindest, sweetest, gentlest of souls and a powerful connector with the spiritual realm that I guarantee to bring your soul all that it needs to journey forward towards your highest alignment.
Over the years, Alex has studied a multitude of healings, strong practicing meditation, journaling, affirmation breathwork energy healing. She's a Reiki Master specializing in traditional Reiki, Holy Fire, and Karuna modalities.
Back in Episode 10, Alex shared with us how she graduated in 2012 and got a bachelor’s in Fine Arts from Salisbury University. She shared her passion for jewelry and the healing properties of crystals and gemstones and what they do for the mind, body, and soul.
In between the previous episode that Alex appeared on and then now, Alex had to go through some changes, including some series of burnout and her pregnancy. She got into a space where she felt like she didn't have the energy to hold space for others so she decided to have her own little inner winter, began disconnecting from the world and going within. She was then able to reassess how she wanted to go about with her Reiki practice and focus the energy on herself. She wanted to make sure she was in a good headspace and a good energetic space.
Giving herself the grace to shut out the outside chatter, she ultimately found the clarity, the headspace, and the inspiration to get back in a new and different way of using her tools. Alex points out that taking a step back from the work is just as important as the work because you can't always help heal others since you've got to go within as well.
Today, Alex shares her beautiful hibernation experience as well as the value of joining a collaborative community that helps you bring out each other’s gifts.
