127: Grief, Grace, and Growth: A Spiritual Journey with Brenda Balding

🌙 Welcome to the Cosmic Mystic Podcast with Danie C. Muniz! This week, I’m honored to host Brenda L. Balding, a registered nurse, Reiki healer, and author with over 50 years of experience. Together, we explore her spiritual evolution from Catholicism to a profound connection with the divine, weaving through grief, healing, and self-discovery.

Episode Highlights:

  • Brenda’s transition from a Catholic upbringing to embracing spirituality through Reiki in her 70s.
  • Her powerful GRIEF acronym: Grateful Rebirthing Internal Energy Flow, born from her father’s passing.
  • The balance of being and doing, with JOY as “Joy of Being” and insights on honoring free will.
  • Lifelong spiritual practices through music, like singing “Tell Me Why” to her daughter, and the Aurora Borealis experience.
  • Brenda’s books, Discovery is Recovery and Discovery is Vital, guiding self-reflection with 12 spiritual principles.
