Nothing is More Important Than I Feel Good: My Journey to Embodying This Truth

"Nothing is more important than I feel good." Say this three times, and let it sink into your being.

This powerful affirmation from Esther and Jerry Hicks' Money and the Law of Attraction card deck has been my mantra this past month. As a physical empath, I’ve always felt the emotions and energy of others in a deeply visceral way, often as pain in my body. This can be both a gift and a challenge, especially in my work as a healer and coach.

The Challenge of Empathy

Recently, I experienced two strikingly different client sessions that illuminated the importance of this affirmation. The first session was excruciating. Before it even began, I felt a sharp pain in my body—a signal of the client’s negative, stuck energy. The session was draining, and afterward, I felt angry and frustrated. Why had I allowed myself to endure such pain?

The very next day, I worked with a different client. This session flowed effortlessly. There was no pain beforehand, and the client’s peaceful, prayerful energy made the experience uplifting for both of us.

This contrast brought a vital truth to light: when a client is stuck in victimhood and negativity, they unconsciously create an energetic cord that pulls on my vitality. On the other hand, clients who are open, self-motivated, and willing to grow bring ease and grace to the healing process.

A New Way Forward

Reflecting on these experiences, I realized I must honor my own well-being. "Nothing is more important than I feel good" is no longer just a phrase—it's my guiding principle.

To embody this, I’ve decided to:

• Work with clients who inspire me and uplift the process – those who are ready to take responsibility for their healing.
• Set clear boundaries – explaining from the outset that my role is to guide, not to "fix."
• Let go of the need to rescue others – understanding that only God can truly heal, and my purpose is to inspire and empower.

A Spiritual Lesson

This realization took me back to a vision I had during a healing session. In it, I saw Adam, created by God, struggling with the energy of Azazil (Satan). Azazil, in his jealousy and arrogance, refused to bow to Adam, and instead of focusing on his divine purpose, Adam felt compelled to "help" Azazil.

This vision mirrored the unhealthy dynamics I sometimes see in my work: empathic individuals sacrificing their own happiness to save others. But we are not responsible for others’ choices. Only they can choose to rise above their pain, just as Adam eventually did when he embraced his divine role.

Empowering Change

To those stuck in victimhood, I ask:

• What are you gaining from holding onto pain, anger, or resentment?
• What are you afraid of losing if you let it go?
• How would your life, relationships, and career change if you chose to release it all?

Journal on these questions. Dive deep. And when you're ready, make a firm decision to let go and live your best life.

Remember, holding onto low vibrations not only affects you—it impacts everyone around you. Saying "nothing is more important than I feel good" isn't selfish; it's a commitment to your highest self and the light you bring to the world.

My Commitment

Moving forward, I am choosing to honor my own well-being by working with clients who are ready to walk their own journey. My role is to carry the light—not to walk the path for them.

If you’re ready to let go of what no longer serves you and embrace a life of joy and fulfillment, I’d love to support you. But remember: the decision to heal must come from you.

Here’s what one client had to say about working with me:
"During my breakthrough call with Mariam, she provided profound insights that helped me uncover shadows I hadn’t fully cleared. Her guidance reminded me that forgiveness is the key to healing. Thanks to her, I now feel empowered to take small, actionable steps toward a life of abundance." – Anonymous

If you’re ready to stop playing the victim and start living your best life, book your session with me [here]. Let’s work together to uncover your light and take the first step toward freedom and joy.

Because nothing is more important than you feel good.
