Feeling Unsteady in Your Healing Work? Why Powerful Sessions Can Shake You (and How to Root Again)
Feeling Unsteady in Your Healing Work? Why Powerful Sessions Can Shake You (and How to Root Again)
If your healing work sometimes leaves you feeling high as a kite one moment—and shut down the next—you’re not alone. That unsteady rhythm doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re expanding. In this episode, Inge reveals why deep sessions can leave us rattled, and how to root into ourselves without collapsing.
Listen wherever you get your podcasts:
Today’s Block
Feeling unsteady or inconsistent in your healing work and doubting whether it’s even real (or if you’re crazy).
Listen If…
🍃You’ve ever questioned if your magic was real
🍃 You get exhausted after deep client sessions
🍃 You feel “too much” for everyday life
Three Takeaways
1️⃣ Your crash isn’t failure, it’s integration.
2️⃣ You’re not too much, your sensitivity is your superpower.
3️⃣ Grounded healing work is built on inner safety, not external validation.
Today’s Key Action
Instead of doubting your magic, rest in it. Let post-session rest be sacred, not shameful.

Episode 2 – Why Healers Crash After Powerful Sessions—and What to Do About It
The Healing High (and Why It Doesn’t Last)
You know the feeling—when everything flows. Your intuition is sharp. Your client’s heart is open. Energy moves, blocks dissolve, truth pours in. You both leave the session transformed. But then… the crash. You find yourself craving carbs, doubting everything, or scrolling numbly.
This isn’t failure. It’s integration.
It’s Not That You’re “Too Much”
Many healers are told they’re too sensitive, too emotional, too intense. But those very traits are what allow us to bring deep, lasting healing. The crash often comes not from the energy being “taken” from us—but from finally firing on all circuits. You’ve lit up dormant parts of yourself that aren’t used to being on. That’s a nervous system upgrade—and it requires rest.
Why Grounding Matters More Than Protecting
The old paradigm says: protect yourself from your client’s energy. But what if you weren’t drained by them, but by your own expansion? What if the solution wasn’t defense—but anchoring? Grounding in your body. Rooting in your worth. Choosing safety in your sensitivity.
Healing is a two-way flow. The more you hold yourself through the fallout, the more sustainable your gifts become.
You’re Not Inconsistent—You’re Working With Energy
Some sessions flow. Others don’t. That’s not proof you’re broken—it’s a sign of varying energetic availability. Your job isn’t to perform magic on demand. Your job is to show up, anchor, and co-create with the person in front of you.
You’re not too much. You’re powerful—and it’s time to build circuits strong enough to hold that truth.
