I was 10 when a teacher tried to get me to switch hands.
She didn’t mean any harm; she just thought she was helping me “fit in.”
“You’ll thank me later,” she said, placing the pencil in my right hand.
I didn’t.
I was already intuitive enough to know when something wasn’t mine. But I didn’t yet have the words—or the confidence—to say no.
So I tried to conform.
And somewhere in that compliance, I learned something much more dangerous than writing with the wrong hand:
I learned to override my instincts.
This isn’t a story about being left-handed. It’s a story about energy.
About how the world is wired for a certain kind of rhythm—linear, logical, loud—and what happens to our aura when our natural way of being doesn’t fit that mold.
Energy Doesn’t Lie (Even When We Do)
For years, I told myself I was fine. I was spiritual. I had a “practice.”
But I was leaking energy all over the place—saying yes when I meant no, holding space when I needed space, trying to match a world that never quite matched me.
It wasn’t until I started working with auras—my own and others’—that I understood what was happening.
The fields were frayed. The colors were distorted.
It wasn’t just burnout. It was dissonance.
I was living against my natural frequency. And so were so many of my clients.
What I See in the Auras of Intuitive Women (and the Men Who Feel Too Much)
There’s a specific kind of distortion I’ve come to recognize. It shows up in the aura as a muted blue, a faded yellow, a nervous flicker of pink-green.
It’s the energy of self-abandonment, of people—especially women—who have learned to doubt their inner knowing in favor of being “palatable.”
One client, a gifted teacher, came to me with chronic fatigue and a sense of inner flatness. When we tuned in to her aura, she saw a tight band of dull orange wrapped around her solar plexus.
That’s your will center, I told her. Your gut truth.
She started crying.
“It feels like I’ve been overriding my own knowing for years.”
She had. She had been raised to be agreeable. To be “nice.” To adapt to everyone’s needs but her own.
Her energy field was trying to get her attention the whole time. It finally did—through a nervous breakdown. But we caught the frequency and we rewired it.
Through breath, color, and permission.
The World Rewards Conformity—But Our Energy Doesn’t
Left-handedness is a simple metaphor for what happens when we’re forced to adjust to a dominant system.
It’s subtle at first—like using the wrong hand for a task that should be effortless. But over time, that adjustment becomes chronic.
We split from ourselves.
Your aura can feel it before you do. You may start to feel tired around certain people, confused in decision-making, or like your voice isn’t landing the way it used to.
That’s not in your head. That’s in your field.
Reclaiming Our Intuitive Frequency
Healing, for me and my students, often begins not with doing more—but with undoing.
Unlearning.
Listening inward.
When we drop the performance and tune into the colors of our energy, we begin to return to our original rhythm. That rhythm is different for each of us. And that difference is sacred.
Here’s a practice for reconnection. If you’re feeling off, start here:
Close your eyes.
Ask: What color am I resonating with today?
Don’t overthink it. Let it rise naturally.
Then ask the color: What are you here to show me?
Listen.
Breathe.
Begin again.
I Still Write With My Left Hand
But more importantly, I live from my inner frequency now. And I teach others to do the same.
Not because it’s easy. But because the world needs more people who are willing to be true, even when it’s inconvenient.
Even when it’s quiet.
Even when it doesn’t fit.
Our intuition isn’t a luxury—it’s a compass. And our aura will always light the way back.
