What happens when a spiritual awakening completely changes the way you experience yourself, your body, nature — and the unseen world? In this episode of Willow Healing Matters, Catherine Crestani sits down with Freda Maletsky, a semi-trance voice channel, energy healer and divine light channel, for a fascinating conversation about spiritual awakening, inner healing, channeling, consciousness and learning to truly see yourself. Freda spent much of her life struggling to want to be here. In 2019, a catastrophic spiritual awakening became a turning point that led her towards choosing life, beginning a deeper journey of inner healing — and eventually discovering that her spiritual gifts were coming online. What followed was anything but ordinary. Freda shares how meditation and connecting with nature opened the door to experiences including communicating with trees, receiving energetic information and eventually becoming a semi-trance voice channel. We explore what semi-trance channeling actually is, what happens when Freda allows the energy she knows as Elisabeth to speak through her, and how channeling differs from other forms of intuitive and spiritual communication. During the conversation, Freda also channels a message from Elisabeth about friendship, being seen and the importance of finding people with whom you don’t have to filter or over-explain your spiritual experiences. We also dive into: ✨ Spiritual awakening and the journey of inner healing✨ What happens when spiritual gifts begin to awaken✨ Talking to trees and connecting with the consciousness of nature✨ What semi-trance voice channeling actually means✨ The difference between intuitive channeling, semi-trance and full trance channeling✨ The energetic relationship between the body, consciousness and healing✨ Why learning to listen to your body can transform your relationship with yourself✨ The divine feminine energy Freda connects with as Elisabeth✨ Releasing the need to prove your worth✨ Why you don’t have to earn your right to exist✨ Learning to soften, surrender and let go✨ Finding your spiritual tribe and people who truly see you✨ A beautiful channeled message about being “good enough” exactly as you are✨ A simple practice involving meditation, water and intention One of the most powerful messages in this conversation is beautifully simple: You are already good enough. You don’t have to keep proving your worth. And perhaps the deeper invitation is to stop looking outside yourself for permission to be who you already are. Freda also shares a practical invitation from Elisabeth: begin learning to “read the Bible of your own body” by moving out of the logical mind and becoming more present with the sensations and energetic information within your physical experience. If you’ve ever experienced a spiritual awakening, intuitive downloads, channeling, synchronicities, communication with nature, or simply felt that there was more to consciousness than what can be explained logically, this conversation is for you. 🌿 CONNECT WITH FREDA Freda Maletsky is a semi-trance voice channel, energy healer and divine light channel who shares her own journey of healing and spiritual awakening to inspire others to do their inner work. 🌐 Website: https://fredahealing.com 📸 Instagram: @fredamaletskyhealingarts🎨 Instagram: @fredamaletskyart🎙️ Podcast: The Healing Artist▶️ YouTube: Freda Maletsky Healing Arts 🌿 CONNECT WITH CATHERINE Catherine Crestani is the host of Willow Healing Matters, an inner authority guide, spiritual teacher and founder of Willow Healing Matters.
