When Awakening Takes the Ground From Under You, with Heather Zimmerman Episode 98 Spiritual Awakening with Shaz Podcast What happens when your spiritual awakening does not feel expansive or peaceful, but instead feels like your whole life is being pulled apart? In this episode of Spiritual Awakening with Shaz, I sit down with Heather Zimmerman, Multidimensional Soul Facilitator and founder of Divine Ascension Co., for a deep conversation about spiritual awakening, the dark night of the soul, healing trauma, sovereignty, channeling, manifestation and what can happen when the old version of your life no longer fits. Heather holds a B.S. in Psychology and an M.S. in Applied Behavior Analysis, and spent years working in behavioural science before her own awakening took her apart and rebuilt her from underneath. That experience shaped the way she works today. Rather than focusing only on surface symptoms, Heather looks deeper at what may be happening emotionally, mentally, physically, energetically and spiritually. She is the author of Becoming Divine and the creator of The Self-Spirit Method™, a fourteen-step framework built in the order she personally needed while moving through her own healing and awakening journey. Heather works with people who are experiencing something they may not yet have language for, particularly those wondering why they suddenly feel different, disconnected from their old life, energetically sensitive or unsure of what is happening to them. In this episode, we discuss: Heather’s early experiences with spirit, haunted houses and unexplained phenomenaHow questioning religion led her towards her own spiritual pathThe dark night of the soul and what happens when your existing belief system falls apartDreams, astral travel, past-life experiences and multidimensional explorationChanneling spirit guides, higher-dimensional beings and other forms of consciousnessWhy curiosity matters during a spiritual awakeningSpiritual sovereignty and finding what feels true for youWhy Heather believes authenticity is an important part of spiritual developmentThe difference between surface healing and getting underneath the original patternSpiritual bypassing and why healing often happens in layersThe connection between trauma, emotions, energy and the bodyBreaking ancestral and generational patternsWhy manifestation requires more than affirmations, visualisation and vision boardsHow focusing your energy on what you actually want can change the way you manifestHeather’s fourteen-step Self-Spirit Method™Self-love, compassion, chakras, mindfulness and gratitude as foundations for deeper spiritual workLearning to communicate with spirit and asking better questionsCreating boundaries with spirit and developing a relationship with your guidesDaily energetic practices for reconnecting with yourself and your highest timelineBecoming curious about the parts of spirituality that exist beyond the surfaceHighlights One of the strongest themes in this conversation is the importance of sovereignty. Heather encourages people to question, explore and discover what actually feels true for them instead of automatically adopting someone else’s beliefs. We also explore why healing is rarely finished after dealing with something once. Old experiences can return at another level because you are ready to meet a deeper layer of the pattern. Heather shares why manifestation is the final stage of her fourteen-step framework rather than the starting point. Before intentionally creating something different, she believes we need to understand ourselves, our energy and the patterns influencing the way we experience life. This is a conversation for anyone who has ever thought, What the hell is happening to me?, during a spiritual awakening and wondered whether losing the old version of themselves might actually be the beginning of something much bigger. About Heather Zimmerman Heather Zimmerman is a Multidimensional Soul Facilitator and the founder of Divine Ascension Co. She holds a B.S. in Psychology and an M.S. in Applied Behavior Analysis, and spent years working in behavioural science before her own awakening took her apart and rebuilt her from underneath. That is the reason she works the way she does. She does not treat the surface symptom. She goes looking for what is actually underneath it, which is usually why the surface fixes never held. She is the author of Becoming Divine and the creator of The Self-Spirit Method™, a fourteen-step framework built in the order she actually needed it. She works with people who are in the middle of something they have no language for yet, who are afraid there is something wrong with them, and who have not told anyone what is really happening.

Sometimes awakening does not begin with bliss, clarity or feeling deeply connected. Your sleep changes. Money becomes stressful. Your nervous system starts bracing. Relationships stop fitting. You may no longer feel at home in your own life. Rather than being five unrelated problems, Heather explores how these experiences can be connected and what may be happening underneath them.
