Gifts from the Devastation

Take On Faith – March 26, 2022

Celine O’Donovan joins us to discuss her book Gifts from the Devastation. She wrote the book following her bout with breast cancer and the aftermath, which she described as a spiritual experience. O’Donovan joined us from Galway, Ireland.

Celine discussed the stresses that led up to her journey, the fear that she lived with, and how getting in touch with her creator resulted in great peace. Host Xolani Kacela welcomed her to Take On Faith on KTAL-LP in Las Cruces, NM.

From Guest’s Website:

Read on to find out the story behind the book and a short extract that I hope you enjoy.
A few readers also share their feedback with you!!

If I were to sum up the overall message of the book in a few sentences, it is that all life experiences, especially the difficult ones, are here to help us grow into the fullest version of ourselves. As difficult as it can be at times, life really is unfolding for our highest good.

My experience with breast cancer taught me this. It has been a journey marked by many ups and downs but I wouldn’t change a moment of it. Although life still has its challenges, I have never felt a greater sense of meaning and purpose. It has awoken me to my true nature and brought me to a place of deep, inner contentment that is beyond compare.

I hope that by sharing my story, it will prompt you to embark on your own journey of growth and expansion. I hope it will help you reframe difficult experiences and provide you with more supportive and empowering ways of relating to life. Ultimately, I hope you discover your inner power, speak your truth and shine brightly as the highest version of yourself.

In the book I take you on my personal journey – from getting the life-changing news that I had cancer, to surrendering to it and ultimately choosing a path of transformation. It taught me that despite the inevitable pain that comes with growth, life really is happening for us, not to us.

When we shift to this perspective, we have a totally different experience of life, we see through our conditioning and limiting beliefs. We become stronger and more anchored in our inner power. We no longer live as victims. Instead we realize that we are powerful creators of our reality.

Then there is no stopping us! That is my wish for you.

From Guests’ Website:

From the wellspring of the Science of Mind, within New Thought teachings and the wisdom found in other paths, the founders of Golden Heart have come together to offer their hearts and minds in service to the idea of healing the belief in separation and creating communities of wholeness.

With a shared focus on developing both individuals and Spiritual Communities, our goal is to offer practical and valuable coaching, classes, and hands-on support that foster growth in the realm of Spiritual awareness and life-affirming effect. When we agree on purpose and work in principle, the possibilities abound and become an ever-present reality. We can’t wait to see how Spirit will continue to express as you!

As our name implies, Golden Heart is committed to the idea that we live our best lives when we recognize and nurture the communities that exist in the microcosm of ourselves (mind, body, and Spirit) as one unique whole. In the macrocosm of the larger world, the healthy collaboration of individuals results in the well-being of all involved. Our dedication is to offer a meaningful suite of services focusing on fine-tuning the good and reimagining possibilities.

Our approach is not a rainbow and butterflies approach to living but a practical pathway to life’s meaningful and positive expression in all its wonder-filled forms. We’ll start by introducing you to the two leaders who form the backbone of Golden Heart and, collectively, have committed themselves to the service of Transformation. They have both built lives on the premise of the possible and cannot wait to share it with you.

From the Publisher’s Website:

How is Reiki practice like a snow globe, a palm tree, and an anchor?

As we navigate life’s unpredictable squalls and waves of adversity, we aspire to settle like the snow in a snow globe, feel rooted like the base of a palm tree in a storm, and be anchored like a steady ship.

Reiki: A Self Practice to Live in Peace with Self and Others provides readers with self-Reiki how-tos for putting these metaphors into action to build an inner mind-body unshakable foundation, and to relieve the suffering of others. This book opens a door to a mindful way of living with ease rather than struggle.

Whether it is fear of coronavirus, receiving texts in ALL CAPS, a frightening diagnosis, or worry over a child, the self-Reiki practices introduced here will alleviate pain and overwhelm, ushering in mindfulness, resilience, and recovery capacity.
