Donna Lakes

Donna Lakes Self Development Coach, Innerchild Healing, Ascension Coach, Reiki Master/Teacher and Spiritual Life Coach at Ascension School Of Healing Arts.

I am the Founder and Owner of Ascension School of Healing Arts (ASHA) and Ascension Healing Arts Center! I've been practicing Energy Healing since 1994 and was certified as a Master in 1999. I was also trained in myomassology under Irene Gauthier in 1997. In 2000 I began teaching Reiki, Intuitive Development, and Healing with The Holy Spirit. I've been doing healings on clients since 1998, for over 25 years. In 2006, I developed my Managing Your Energy class. Through the years, I channeled the Inner-child Healing, Past Life Healing, Subconscious Reprogramming Methods, and Self Healing courses. The type of healing that I facilitate, I now call Ascension Healing. My purpose is to assist the collective in ascending to Christ Consciousness! My courses are designed to help you emotionally, mentally, and spiritually mature. Ultimately lifting you into higher consciousness in the physical body. From birth, I've always had a close relationship with God and have been intuitive. I was told long ago, as I was growing up, that our society is lacking integrity and is not in service to the greater good of the whole. I was also told that our institutions and systems need to change worldwide. That change begins within each of us. We need to learn to fill ourselves up and overflow versus competing for energy, as we have done for thousands of years. Each of us has to step into self-realization and self-love, and our God given true power. The Holy Spirit taught and guided me little by little to develop this type of healing that myself and staff facilitate and teach today. I teach Reiki I&II and Reiki Master throughout the year in person and via Zoom. Healer Certification Program

Your body is trying to tell you something and you keep ignoring it ๐Ÿ‘€

Here are 5 signs your energy is blocked

๐Ÿ˜ด You feel tired no matter how much you sleep

Your body is holding onto stress and tension even while you rest. When energy is not flowing freely your system works overtime just to function

๐Ÿ˜ถโ€๐ŸŒซ๏ธ You feel emotionally numb or disconnected from yourself

This often happens when we suppress emotions for too long. The energy gets stuck and we start to feel like we are just going through the motions

๐Ÿ” The same negative patterns keep showing up in your life

Cycles repeat when unresolved energy stays trapped. Relationships jobs and situations will mirror what is unhealed within you

๐Ÿ˜ค Small things irritate you way more than they should

When energy is blocked it creates tension that has nowhere to go. That frustration is your body asking for release

๐Ÿซฃ You feel stuck but you can not explain why

You might have everything you need on paper but still feel like something is off. That is stagnant energy keeping you from moving forward

Energy flows through pathways in your body called chakras and meridians. When life happens like stress trauma grief or even daily overwhelm that energy can get stuck

Your body stores everything you do not process

Reiki works by channeling healing energy to clear those blockages and restore balance so your energy can flow the way it is meant to โœจ

If this resonated save it for later and share it with someone who needs to see this ๐Ÿ’ซ

๐Ÿ”ฅ Twin Flame Journeys Explained ๐Ÿ”ฅ

A twin flame is believed to be your souls mirror โ€” one soul split into two bodies, destined to reunite across lifetimes.

Unlike soulmates, twin flames often trigger deep transformation. The connection can feel intense, magnetic, and sometimes chaotic.

โœจ The journey typically includes these stages:

Recognition โ€” An instant knowing when you meet
Testing โ€” Old wounds and ego patterns surface
Crisis โ€” The relationship triggers deep healing
Runner and Chaser โ€” One partner pulls away while the other pursues
Surrender โ€” Both release control and trust the process
Union โ€” Coming together in balanced, unconditional love

๐Ÿ’ซ Twin flame connections are not always romantic. Some are friendships or family bonds meant to accelerate spiritual growth.

The purpose is never just about the other person. The journey pushes you toward self-love, healing, and becoming your highest self.

๐Ÿฆ‹ Whether you believe you have met your twin flame or are still on your path, remember this: The real union happens within you first.

Why Healing Feels Hard ๐Ÿง 

You can affirm, journal, and meditate dailyโ€”but if your nervous system is stuck in survival mode, lasting change becomes nearly impossible.

Your body remembers what your mind tries to forget. Trauma lives in the nervous system, not just in memories.

Signs your nervous system needs support ๐Ÿ‘‡

โ†’ You feel wired but tired
โ†’ Small stressors feel overwhelming
โ†’ Relaxation feels uncomfortable or unsafe
โ†’ You cycle between shutdown and hypervigilance

Real healing includes somatic workโ€”helping your body feel safe enough to release what it's been holding.

This is why energy healing work, breathwork, and trauma-informed practices matter. They speak directly to the body, not just the mind.

If this resonates, your nervous system might be asking for attention. ๐Ÿ’›

What are Energetic Cords? ๐Ÿ”ฎโœจ

Energetic cords are invisible connections that form between you and other people, places, or situations. They attach to your energy field through emotional bonds, relationships, and shared experiences.

Some cords are positive ๐Ÿ’œ They connect you to loved ones and meaningful relationships, flowing energy both ways in a healthy exchange.

Others drain you ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ Negative cords form through toxic relationships, unresolved trauma, past attachments, and emotional entanglements. These cords can leave you feeling exhausted, anxious, or weighed down for no clear reason.

Signs you may have unhealthy cords attached to your energy field ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ”ธ You feel emotionally drained after thinking about a certain person
๐Ÿ”ธ You absorb other people's emotions and energy
๐Ÿ”ธ Old relationships still feel heavy even after they ended
๐Ÿ”ธ You feel pulled in too many directions
๐Ÿ”ธ You have trouble setting boundaries

Tips for releasing cords that no longer serve you ๐ŸŒฟ

๐Ÿ’ซ Sit quietly and visualize the cord connecting you to that person or situation
๐Ÿ’ซ Acknowledge what the connection taught you
๐Ÿ’ซ Set the intention to release the cord with love and gratitude
๐Ÿ’ซ Visualize the cord gently dissolving from your energy field
๐Ÿ’ซ Feel the lightness and freedom as your energy returns to you

Important: Releasing cords is not about anger or severing ties. The focus should be on gently letting go and restoring balance to your energy field with compassion for yourself and the other person. ๐Ÿค

At Ascension School of Healing Arts, cord and attachment removal is one of many modalities taught and practiced through Ascension Healing and Reiki energy work.
