Key Takeaways:
- The Akashic Records are a library, containing all the information about a soul's past, present, and potential future lifetimes.
- Our current life is just a "thin slice" of our soul's complete journey.
- Souls choose different experiences across lifetimes to learn and evolve.
Ever wonder if your life's challenges have a deeper purpose? Kanika Vasudeva's journey from corporate engineer to spiritual healer might forever change how you view your struggles.
Devastated by the stillbirth of her daughter, Kanika found herself questioning everything. What began as desperate grief evolved into a profound spiritual awakening when she discovered her daughter came with a soul contract - to wake her up when she was "wasting her life". Through accessing the Akashic Records, Kanika uncovered that this seemingly tragic event was actually part of a sacred agreement between souls.
'Imagine your soul as a whole apple and each lifetime as just one paper-thin slice'. Through this lens, recurring patterns like toxic relationships or family wounds suddenly make sense as karmic lessons your soul chose to face.
Whether you're healing from loss, questioning your purpose, or simply curious about the deeper nature of reality, this episode offers both practical wisdom and profound spiritual insight. The conversation culminates in a beautiful reminder that from a soul perspective, there is no judgment - only experience and evolution.

Kanika (00:00):
You are like a warrior dancer the timeline I'm getting
is about 1780s like feminine,but really in your own power as
in a position of command.
There's other men who feeldefeated by that.
Some feel like they wererejected, even though that
wasn't your thing.
You were just owning your power.
(00:22):
So now they're going to takeaway what you like, and that was
your husband.
Now I'm just calling in thearchangels and they're just
going to begin healing yourwhole space.
You are coming back to youroriginal blueprint, which is to
be operating from a place offeminine empowerment, not
(00:43):
feeling any less.
Kertia (00:45):
Yeah, oh my God, that was a journey.
Kanika (00:49):
It was so cool to see you as this warrior dancer.
Kertia (00:53):
I'm not surprised, because I have a very high
affinity to dancing.
I actually teared up a bitbecause I felt like I could feel
all the emotions.
I really did bring that woundinto this life.
So, whether it be throughparent relationships or
friendships or intimate partnerrelationships, I've always been
(01:15):
left feeling like I'm too much.
Kanika (01:19):
I'm happy it's gone now Exactly, and that is the power
of working in the AkashicRecords, because you get to
bring the gifts and you get toheal all the stuff that should
not be with you.
Kertia (01:30):
Hello everyone, session that I recently received from
today's guest, kanika Vasudeva,who is an Akashic Records reader
and energy healer, and I am sograteful to her for the
(01:54):
beautiful session that sheprovided me with, which will be
found on her podcast.
In today's conversation, wespoke more about the catalyst
that led to the work that shecurrently does, and she touched
on how working with the akashicrecords can really help you to
have a larger perspective ofyour soul's journey and even to
(02:18):
identify the aspects of yourselfthat needs healing, and she
really demonstrated how profoundthis work is when she looked
into my own records and took methrough a past life where I
experienced a wound so deep thatthe energy of all of that had
(02:42):
lasting effects into my currentlife.
Guys, when I tell you, it was amess, and she helped me to heal
a lot of that, it was truly abeautiful experience.
So you can go check out mypersonal experience with Kanika
(03:05):
on the Art of Life podcast onher YouTube channel.
I'll include the link to thatin the show notes of this
episode.
All right, let's get into itokay, kanika hi, this
(03:39):
conversation with you.
I'm so excited to be here.
Thanks for having me on theshow.
Definitely, we're talking aboutakashic records today and
you've been an energy coach ineverything that you're doing.
You know you're very muchheavily in the service industry
right now, on the spiritual sideof things, so I'd love for you
to tell me a bit about how yougot into what you were doing and
(03:59):
why this work is so importantright now.
Kanika (04:02):
I love the question because I think a lot of people
will resonate with the story inthe sense that I began, or my
life really started, a lot like,you know, general life, a lot
of people leading the same way.
So I grew up not really knowingwhat I wanted to do, and I was
(04:29):
the good girl.
I followed what my mom and dadwanted me to do.
I followed, perhaps whatsociety wanted me to do, and so
much that I didn't even knowthat that's what I was following
.
That's the pattern that I wasdoing.
So I'm an engineer, I'm an MBAby background.
I've led multi-billion dollarprojects across various
(04:53):
companies across the globe, andthe reason I say that is because
I was such a black and whiteperson.
I was so far away from thespiritual world, so to speak.
Life was very logical, life isvery scientific, which I think
is a lot of how the worldoperates, and that's why I was
saying that, in that backgroundsense, a lot of people would
(05:13):
understand that and because I'vebeen there.
And so, as I fast forward inthat life, there's this time
where I'm starting to feelreally burnt out.
I'm not really motivated bylife anymore and things are not
working.
I know they're not working, butI did not know really what to
(05:34):
do about it.
So I did try that time tomeditate, which actually, for my
engineer mind did not work then, because I would meditate for
five minutes and that was reallyhard, like calming my brain
down for five minutes, nothaving another thought, like a.
That was so hard.
But then if I did it, let's say, or if I, you know, calmed it
(05:57):
for just two minutes, I would belike, okay, so I had a good
meditation today.
And now what?
Yeah, like how's my lifeshifted with that?
Because I would come back tothe same world and that would
still be the same chaos, thesame disconnection, the same
overwhelm, the same stress, thesame problems that I was feeling
(06:18):
as before.
So it hadn't changed and to meit wasn't working.
I tried the self-care stuff, Itried the affirmations, then
they weren't really landing inme.
Now, that time my son was alittle bit above two years old,
but you know, just slightlyabove, and I was pregnant with
(06:39):
my daughter.
The pregnancy was going reallywell, but I wasn't doing well,
like, like if I went to thedoctors.
Yes, the results were okay,everything was fine.
But I know my first pregnancywith my son.
And then this pregnancy, it wasdifferent.
Like I would wake up crying,crying like proper crying, and a
(07:03):
lot of times it was like that.
So I knew I was in trouble,like something was really wrong.
I just didn't know how to fixit.
And then one day I woke upactually I had a very good sleep
and I woke up feeling like that, but I just did not have any
(07:23):
body movements.
I did not feel her moving asmuch at night, so that was a
troublesome sign went to thedoctors, realized that she had
no heartbeat.
Then I had to give birth to astillborn, which was so opposite
what I'd ever imagined.
(07:43):
And I think within all of thatand after all of that is when I,
when the world really brokedown for me, like the earth
below underneath, just slippedaway because there was no way of
hiding anymore and also because, like, my emotions are finally
so hard hitting.
(08:04):
Um, the shame was very real,the shame around.
You know, that was a job I wassupposed to do and I lost my
child.
Um, the guilt that I sleptthrough it.
Um, the questions that maybe Icaused it and I really wanted to
reach out, I really wanted toconnect with her, all those
(08:25):
things, and I was like, well, amI a good mom?
Because, you know, maybe I'vedone something here, so I really
needed to reach out to her.
So with this, that is where themindset shift really started
happening, because the step thatI was trying to look at earlier
, all the logical thinking andso on, this time I had to
(08:48):
believe that there was somethingthat was far greater than me
and my little brain couldcomprehend.
So I started my journey intoenergy healing, started my
journey into Akashic RecordsDidn't quite start like that.
I did go to a lot of otherintuitives, I tried to find my
answers through them, but Iwanted to connect with my
(09:09):
daughter by myself, because Iwanted to have a conversation
with her.
I wanted to understand if shewas doing okay.
I wanted to have a chat withher, explain my things like sort
of ask for forgiveness.
I just really wanted that.
So I would be asking that timeto the universe again and again
that please show me a way.
I need to connect with her.
And that's what got me intoenergy healing and Akashic
(09:35):
Records.
And what I learned was that thisfelt really hard in the body,
but actually I had a soulcontract with my daughter.
So I had asked her that I'mgoing to go on earth, I'm going
to live this life, and if youfeel like I'm wasting my life
again, like I'm just repeatingthe same things, I'm not
(09:56):
progressing, I'm not evolvingthrough the pain, then come and
like, really kick me because Idon't want to waste another life
.
So they had tried my daughter,all the other spirit guides that
they tried again and again,like you know, giving me those
signs where I was feeling reallydisconnected, where I would
wake up crying.
They were giving me the signsall along.
(10:16):
I just wasn't ready to fullyreceive it, and so they had to
bring out the full thing that,hey, girl, you, you need to stop
like, you need to think of lifeanother way, and so that's what
they did.
So it's really what I asked for,and so this is the biggest
thing that I want to share withthe listeners as well that
there's lots of times when wefeel that life's really bad to
(10:38):
us and it feels like we are thevictim.
Maybe consider changing thatquestion and just going like
okay, why is this happening tome?
Really from the evolutionperspective and really from the
learning perspective?
Because there is so much moreto your story than just that.
Whatever that is happening, andyour soul, your spirit guides,
(11:01):
they're all looking after you.
They've got unconditional lovefor you.
You've got support, even if itfeels like it's not feeling like
that on earth.
But you're so, totally lovedthat's a beautiful message.
Kertia (11:17):
Kanika, tell me what was it like when you first
connected, reconnected, withyour daughter.
What was that like?
Kanika (11:29):
It was like homecoming, but in a very different way.
So first of all and I thinkthat's where that's a big
message as well that between meand between all that connection,
the biggest barrier, as much asI wanted it was me, which
(11:50):
sounds so counterintuitive, likehow can I be blocking my
awareness?
How can I be blocking what Ireally dearly wanted?
Yeah, but the first step that Ihad to do for that was really
sit down and forgive myself, andI remember doing that exercise,
doing that meditation and justcrying a lot.
I was forgiving myself thatit's okay.
(12:12):
So forgiveness also meant likebeing able to love myself, being
able to accept that I sleptthat night, being able to accept
that, okay, something happenedand that's fine.
It was that there was that partwhich was disconnecting me.
So once I could do that, sowhen I was reconnecting with her
, she wanted to come through.
(12:33):
She was like sending me signsall throughout.
She was always there.
Whenever I would write someletters, even before, like you
know, I could actually tap inand properly talk to her.
She was always there.
I could feel tap in andproperly talk to her.
She was always there, I couldfeel her.
And this is how I know itbecause I just had her presence
in my womb, right like I hadn'tknown her in the body.
(12:54):
Yeah, that was the onlyconnection I had, and so you
think, like, how can someonelike that communicate?
Now, when I was pregnant with,there was a special tea that I
would drink a lot, and that teahas an aftertaste.
It's like a sweet aftertaste.
It's an Indian herbal thingthat you get which is not even
properly a tea, but I would takethat a lot with hot water, and
(13:16):
so it was my tea.
It just has a very sweet tasteand it's a taste that you cannot
miss.
Now I would have that after Iwould have, you know, anything.
I would have it, like during along drive.
I hadn't had anything beforeafter like for a long time, so
it was unmistakably somethingthat was just coming through.
(13:39):
And then that's how I startedknowing, okay, she's here with
me and so she, like she wastrying, she's here with me and
so she, like she was trying, shewas trying her level best to
connect.
You know, the only person inbetween was me.
So when I had a chat with her,when I could really just sit
down, all that was needed wasjust for me to sit down and
ground my own emotions, not feelas emotional about it.
(14:01):
Emotional about it, like beable to forgive myself and just
allow, perhaps, just a thoughtthat, okay, you know, let's just
connect with her and it's okay,like, even if we can just start
with that.
Any parent who's gone throughanything similar like this I can
guarantee I've taken otherparents through the same
(14:23):
exercise who've also lost theirkids, and I've, in one session,
one hour, I've taken otherparents through the same
exercise who've also lost theirkids and I've, in one session,
one hour, I've been able to helpthem to connect with their kids
.
So it is possible and all youneed to do is just ground
yourself, ground your emotions.
Then you can have thatconnection with your child, so
with her.
That was beautiful because I waslike, hey, how are you?
(14:45):
My first question was how areyou, are you okay and are you
fine?
And she was okay, she was good.
Then I told her that I wasfeeling really sad and what did
she want out of me and why didshe come?
And why did she not come then?
Because I hadn't planned tohave a baby.
She was like the surprise NewYear gift and then she wasn't
there and she told me the soulcontract and she told me that
(15:11):
she just wanted me to be happy.
I asked her okay, how do youwant me now and how do you want
to be around with us, and so on.
So we just had someunderstanding there around how
she would be in touch.
But I know that she's alwaysaround, even now.
Like there are times wheresomething's really um, you know,
like there's a significantshift or something that's
(15:32):
happening in my life, and Ihaven't again eaten anything
like that, but I'll just havethat taste in my mouth.
I'm like, okay, there she is,and she's just saying that it's
okay yeah that's beautiful it's,yeah, it's, it's different,
it's different and it's samelike it's.
Just for me it's just so strongthat there's nothing like where
(15:56):
I say, oh, this is justsomething that I'm making up,
it's just not that, because it'snot a common taste.
Kertia (16:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I totally get that.
Thank you so much for sharingthat with me, because I think
it's something that we don'thear being spoken about.
A lot Loss like this for moms.
It can be isolating, it can besuch an isolating experience and
(16:23):
it can be also equallyconfusing.
There's so much grieving andthere's so much like that
self-blame that goes on withthat.
So I think you talking aboutthis offers such a level of
comfort, not to say that, ofcourse, like you have to go
(16:45):
through the grieving process andfeel those emotions right,
because that's what we're hereto experience.
You know, we're here toexperience all emotions on, like
the, the whole spectrum of it,right, but at the same time,
like you speaking about beingable to ground yourself so that
you can make that connectionright, and that our loved ones,
(17:09):
when they transition to theother side, that they're still
around, they're just in adifferent form and it's just up
to us to kind of remove our ownblockage so that we can make
that connection.
So thank you for speaking onthat.
That was beautiful.
Kanika (17:28):
I think that's just a passion for me.
You know, I never knew it atthe time, but for me that's why
parenting and all the parentingbonds, everything that we
experience as a parent, it isjust something where I want to
bring peace to as many people asI can Also just around this
(17:49):
grief and loss.
It's not just a mom, I'verealized, it's also the dad,
it's also the family.
Like I know about anotherclient and when her mom lost her
daughter, and when her mom losther daughter she was probably
six or seven at the time and youknow, as usual in families when
(18:20):
something like that happens,you sort of don't talk about it,
because that's mostly how a lotof us know how to deal with the
situation.
What that creates, though, itcreates that silent wound.
It's still there.
You haven that silent wound.
It's still there.
You haven't addressed it.
It's there.
And even for the other peoplein the family that's still there
as well, because they wereawaiting something too.
And for this client that Ilooked, she was sad because she
had a family of brothers and shereally wanted that sister.
(18:43):
And so even after years, when Ihad looked at her like she's in
her 40s now, so that would havebeen in her when she was six or
seven years old, so that longago and she was still carrying
that, because if she had asister she would have had a
bridesmaid.
You know, it would just havebeen different that way.
It would just have been adifferent bonding.
(19:04):
So oftentimes we think we areprotecting.
Oftentimes, actually, we'redealing with our own grief, so
we don't even know how to handleother people then.
But when you can, it is a goodidea.
My son was two, a little bitwell, two and a half when I lost
her, so so my son did not knowanything about it.
(19:25):
And then there's one time,probably he was about six, and
he and I were having aconversation and he said
something like you know, I'myour only child.
And I did not want to lie tohim and I said, well, you know,
mom had a daughter as well.
And then he was like well, whathappened?
And where is she?
(19:45):
I said, well, she passed away.
And he's like, okay, becausehe's a six-year-old child, like
just trying to grasp somethinglike that.
If you don't make it so bigchildren can just be taking
things in face value.
So he sort of digested that andhe's like oh, and he's like why
didn't you tell me?
I said well, two, you were verylittle, I didn't even know how
to explain that to you.
And he's like why didn't youtell me?
I said, well, two, you werevery little, I didn't even know
(20:05):
how to explain that to you.
And he's like okay, but youshould have told me, you should
have told me sooner.
Like all right, how soon?
When could I have told you?
And he said, well, when I wasfour, you could have told me.
And I'm like okay.
(20:26):
And then his next question therewas well, so is there anything
else that you're hiding from me.
I'm like, no, hun, you knoweverything, you know everything
about me.
I'm not hiding anything fromyou.
And you're like, okay, but I'msharing this again, that with
this perspective that we feelthat they don't know.
Maybe we haven't talked aboutit, they don't know.
But your kids are ready, youdon't need to make it as big,
(20:52):
but whenever you feel if youwant to, it's an invitation, you
can tell them.
They'll appreciate the honesty.
And my son's very innocentquestion then leads to that
thing Like yes, I mean, in somesense it's very logical Like, if
they feel that we haven't toldthem something, it can lead to
oh, okay, there were othersecrets in my family that I
(21:14):
wasn't told about.
So if you want to have an openrelationship, it starts with us
and whenever you feel you canand it does not just apply to
this, it applies to othersituations as well um, I, I grew
up in a family which alwayswanted to protect me, and I
think a lot of parents do and inthat sense there were lots of
(21:36):
things that were hidden.
Um, not that they wanted to hide, but they just felt that, okay,
I was better off not knowingthem.
But perhaps there is apossibility where, whatever we
are going through you know atwork if you're feeling down or
so on we feel like our kidsshould see our best self and
that's a lot of pressure on us.
But also we're not reallypreparing them for what life's
(21:57):
about.
So whenever you can give them alittle small snippet like okay,
mom's very tired today becausemom had this at work, or or you
know mommy's having a difficulttime with this and this person,
you don't need to go into biggerdetails, but as as neutral and
as sort of like information youcan give it to them.
I think it's it's a betterawareness for them yeah, that is
(22:25):
true.
Kertia (22:27):
Yeah, that is true.
I'm all for parents being openand honest with their kids, of
course, explaining things in away that is age appropriate.
But, yeah, like that is soimportant, you know, because
when your kids get older andthey start finding things out,
then they do feel like you know,they feel like okay, why was
(22:54):
this such a secret?
Or they feel like they've beenlied to you know, they feel
deceived and they also they havea lot of emotions around that,
like I definitely have.
There are many things that Ican think about that were not
spoken about in my family, thatI can think about that were not
(23:15):
spoken about in my family and Ifelt like, had I had the
information earlier, it couldhave helped me in different ways
, maybe given me a perspectivebetter perspective of things,
helped me to understand certainthings better and even how to
navigate certain things in mylife better.
So, yeah, I think oftentimes,of course, with good intention,
(23:36):
we want to protect our kids, butwe also need to be very
realistic and be open abouttalking to kids about this, like
death and all of these thingsthat are difficult to talk about
.
Kanika (23:50):
It's yeah, it's very important yeah, and the other
thing I see with kids and mysons, obviously being the other
great teacher, I feel that a lotof times as parents, we think
we know better yeah like, youknow, the little little kids,
little bodies, and we just knowbetter than them.
(24:11):
Yeah, um, and I think we need toat least recognize that we are
all souls.
We are all souls who have abody.
So, yes, in a body there isthis tiny awareness.
Sometimes, you know you need tohelp them with even toilet
training or simple things whichmight feel like, okay, we need
to really help them.
And they don't know things, butwe're discounting their
(24:39):
abilities.
We're discounting theirabilities to fully understand
and grasp, we're not fullycomprehending them as a soul,
how much awareness and how muchfuller potential they're
bringing in.
And, yes, they might need a lotof things to learn as a soul as
well.
They might need a lot of thingsto learn and a soul as well.
They might need a lot of thingsto learn and that's okay.
That's why we have them,because they'll teach us
something, we'll learn somethingfrom them.
(24:59):
It's a two-way process, but, um, it's good to.
Perhaps.
Consideration is that maybe wecan, we can treat them as fuller
individuals.
We can see them.
You know their age is tiny, butthey're wiser souls.
Kertia (25:16):
Absolutely, absolutely, yeah.
Yeah, our kids have much morepotential than we give them
credit for.
In many ways they can be muchwiser than us.
Yeah, yeah children aredefinitely some of our greatest
teachers.
Kanika (25:38):
Like I think, for example, you know, kids know how
to smile so much easier and itis a life skill, like really.
So first we sort of take thataway, we.
You know, if we follow theprogram of life generally that
the world operates on, it's like, okay, you sort of have to get
serious about whatever you needto do, about your studies and so
(26:00):
on.
Then get serious about yourwork and get really serious,
right, like that's, that'sserious, it's serious stuff.
And everybody will say stopfooling around with you know,
just your music or or whateverit is that you do for fun.
It's almost like, well, thefun's not okay.
So, you know, why don't youjust focus more and settle and
do the right thing?
And so we all are supposed tofollow that pattern.
(26:23):
Guess what?
Like okay, then the patterngoes on.
Then you're supposed to marryor find a partner.
Then you're supposed to settledown, like generally, that's the
pattern.
You're supposed to then earn inlife.
You're supposed to then, youknow, buy more things, get a
house and so on, start a family.
Like that's the pattern.
And usually a lot of us followthat pattern.
We follow that pattern.
We come at the other end andthat's like the 30s crisis, the
(26:45):
40s crisis, the 50s crisis, whenwe go well, well, we're not
really happy with our life.
But guess what?
What happened?
You knew that, right, youoperated out of the system.
And then we say, oh, now I'mnot happy, so our kids can
really teach us how to stayhappy.
(27:07):
And when someone says I don'tknow my purpose or I feel
disconnected, kids can be thebiggest teachers there.
Perhaps we can also.
You know, instead of puttingall that pressure because we're
trying to do the same templateon them as well, pressurize them
for the same template.
That does not make us feelhappy.
(27:28):
So if we them be, there's somuch possibility for us to
operate from our own light.
Because happiness is coming whenyou're operating on your divine
path, like whatever that isthat you came down to do as a
soul.
That's when your happiness iscoming.
So it's really whatever lightsyou up, that's your path, like
(27:50):
it's not more complicated thanthat, very simple.
And so if we just let kids be,instead we have the pressure,
like we feel, oh, if my child'sjust doing this, perhaps they're
not doing right and you know,then they will not settle down,
they will not have a proper jobtomorrow.
Or like we worry about all theoptions.
But if we just all operated inour own light, it's all
(28:11):
perfectly made Like we will getthe job, or whatever pressures,
whatever we are thinking, youknow we will all get that
because it was all pre-plannedanyway that this is what we're
supposed to do.
We'll all get those things andwe'll all be much happier if we
stop trying to conform to thesystem as much.
Kertia (28:33):
I love that.
Yes, I'm here for everythingyou just said.
Kanika (28:39):
Yeah, like, think of the world and think of, like, all
the people who are different.
Like think of Steve Jobs.
He changed the world.
All the people who have beensuch blessings are there, lots
of people who've actually beenvery different and they've
actually followed their passion.
So somewhere we've got a beliefthat, oh, you know all like the
(29:03):
spiritual stuff, this is allvoo-voo or um, like well, work's
got to be hard or you shouldnot really enjoy because you
know then you're not serious.
Like work.
Generally, there is morepermission to be a workaholic
than to not be.
It's almost like a pattern thatokay, you have to work hard to
(29:27):
get money, your job is going tobe hard.
It's like I mean, think of it.
If we all knew this right, assouls we incarnate here, like
really, if life was supposed tobe this tough, why would you
come down?
Why would anyone come down?
Kertia (29:45):
Yeah, yeah, we make it way more difficult for ourselves
.
Definitely Right.
Yeah, yeah, it's true Listeningto you and you mentioned
following our divine path andhow beneficial that is to us.
Going back to the AkashicRecords, I'd love to know how
(30:08):
you kind of like use that inhelping people to recognize what
their path is.
Or you mentioned soul contractsearlier when you spoke about
your daughter or what that meansand how that can play out in
our lives.
I'd love for you to speak onthat.
Yeah.
Kanika (30:25):
So, okay, let's start with what the Akashic Records
are.
They are our soul's library ofanything and everything that's
happened in this lifetime or theother lifetimes.
So if I even backtrack fromthere, we are all bodies.
I'm Kanika right now.
(30:45):
You know you are Kershia andwe're talking right now.
But in another lifetime I wouldhave had another form.
Sometimes I would have been afemale, I would have been a male
, I would have not chosen to beany of that.
I would have been on earth, Iwould have been on other
galaxies, whatever we wanted todo.
So the soul is like that sumtotal of awareness.
(31:08):
And why is the soul doing this?
Like getting to all of theselifetimes and doing all these
different things?
Um, it's similar.
Like it wants to learn as well,almost like how we want to
experience things in our lifehere.
Like we'll go out to a lot ofmovie, cinemas.
We want to watch differentstyles of movies.
Sometimes we want somethingthat is a little sad.
Sometimes we want to watch aromantic movie, and so on.
(31:29):
Right, that's a little sad.
Sometimes you want to watch aromantic movie, and so on.
Right, that's a little bit likewhat the soul wants to do as
well.
So if I was to give you ametaphor for that, imagine an
apple and then cut that intothousand slices.
So once you do that and youtake a little slice out which
(31:50):
actually is almost like paperthin right, it's such a thin
slice that comes out becauseyou've cut it into thousand
pieces.
That's one lifetime for yoursoul.
So this is this lifetime, likethis body is just that 1000 part
of that whole apple which lookslike you can almost see through
it.
It's such a thin slice, yeah.
So my whole story is that wholeapple.
(32:13):
It's the, because it's the sumof, like, whatever I've learned
across all the other lifetimes.
Now, what do I want to learn?
As an example?
So maybe my soul wants to learnabout love.
So in one lifetime it will golike okay, let's experience love
and let's just haveunconditional love, so we'll
have a lot of people loving us.
(32:34):
See what that feels like.
Another time it might be likewell, okay, but just sort of
done with that.
Why don't I have someone whobreaks my heart?
And then it's like okay, whydon't we sort of multiply it?
Maybe this time someone breaksmy heart, someone also treats me
of money, because I just wantedto have that experience, and
(32:55):
then it's like well, what if Iturn the table around and I
broke someone's heart or Icheated them or I cheated on
them with another person?
So all of that, for the soul isjust learning about love,
because it's trying tounderstand what happens, like
what expands in the physicalbody.
How do I feel when?
(33:16):
And that's why they say, youknow, when you come to earth,
that's like your physicalfeeling place.
That's why everyone wants tocome here.
So it wants to understand well,how do I expand when I receive
so much love?
How, how do I contract?
What happens when I do not havelove?
What happens when I don't havelove from a colleague or from a
(33:37):
boss?
And then what happens?
How is it different from, let'ssay, not having love from your
mom?
You see, like for the soul,it's almost like different
science experiments.
Yeah, it's just like, okay,let's send you to this movie
cinema and let's see what isyour virtual reality experience
(33:57):
here.
You go to another one, then yougo to another one.
Mine has been a hot mess.
So our soul or our life, likeit's just a virtual reality,
slice right that 1000 feet,which is this lifetime.
So we, we will feel whatever wefeel in this body and we go
(34:20):
like, okay, this is a mess orthis is really crap, but here's
the fun thing.
So soul is not doing it to makeyou feel bad.
Soul is doing it because itwants to evolve and also you
still have the power.
So there's something likedestiny points in your life.
And then there's somethingwhich we've heard of again is
(34:41):
you are the creator.
So if you wanted to change yourstory at any point in time, you
can always do that because youare the creator.
So with my daughter as anexample.
So when we have this wholecontract, it's not like, well,
on this day this will happen andthen this will happen.
It's not like that at all.
It's not milestone based, it'snot event based, it's very
(35:05):
intention based.
So my sole contract was that ifI am growing, that's okay,
nothing happens.
And then if I'm not growing,then do things.
So that you know, help me andhelp me wake up.
So they're trying.
They're trying with the simplerthings.
They're trying to give melittle nudges, like, hey, you're
(35:26):
not happy right now.
You are burnt out.
You have to work when you arewhen you really want to rest.
They are giving me subtle signs.
They're giving me signs thatyou are just doing things for
other people.
You're not really listening toyour own inner voice.
They were giving me signs I didnot listen.
It's very intention-based,because it's all I am the
(35:48):
creator.
Still so they keep allowing me,they keep allowing me, they
keep allowing me.
And then you know, based on theagreements or that destiny,
it's all I am the creator.
Still so they keep allowing me,they keep allowing me, they
keep allowing me.
And then you know, based on theagreements or that destiny,
it's like okay, this is, youhave really come to learn about
your own power, rising in yourown power, and you're not really
doing that.
So this is and that's destinypoint is like the fixed point.
So if I was to give an example,let's say you're supposed to
(36:14):
drive in a car and it's acomplete wide area, like there's
no highway, there's no lanes oranything.
You can go anywhere, but it'srequired for you to go at one
point in time, go through like atunnel, which is the destiny
point tunnel, and only then youcan pass from that one land to
another land, like that's thebridge that connects both, right
(36:36):
, like at some point in timethis is what you need to cross.
So that's that destiny point,so that's already decided.
Like that's what I've alreadysigned up for.
When I came here as a soul that,okay, I want to learn about
just rising in my power, andthat had to happen.
So it is still.
When I look at the whole apple,I still am the creator.
(36:57):
And this is the beauty aboutAkashic records as well, because
a lot of what happens in ourlife is we're carrying sometimes
those scars from this currentlife.
You know where we feel life ishard, where we have those
patterns.
I'll give you examples.
So there can be karmic patterns.
Karmic patterns could be, let'ssay, someone just keeps having
(37:21):
toxic relationships, one afterthe other, after the other.
Kertia (37:24):
So I think I signed up for that one.
Kanika (37:30):
Oh, me too, Me too, me too, and that's how I know, and
that's why I'm giving theexample.
So that one is, yes, the peoplearound you, the one you're in a
relationship with, they are tobe blamed.
They did the wrong thing, butyou know, person one, person two
(37:51):
, person three, they are to beblamed.
They did the wrong thing, butyou know, person one, person two
, person three, I'm still thecommon denominator.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's the realization that,oh, okay, there is something
that I need to do with myselfand so that is the karmic
pattern.
That's where we've got toresolve it and look at why is it
that we keep attracting thosepeople?
So, for that that we clear thekarma, we also clear, um, our
(38:16):
mindset, our belief that wemight have around that as well,
because if it's impacted us somany times, there might be a
belief, a limiting belief, thatwe have around it.
And sometimes those karmicpatterns can be in the families
as well, like family, commonfamily pattern can actually be
around relationships too, likewhere you would see the
(38:38):
generations not really happy intheir relationships.
Kertia (38:42):
Oh yeah, so I have that too Me too.
Kanika (38:48):
Oh, we could keep doing that, yeah.
But the good news is that youcan break that, you can be the
cycle breaker there and you cango okay, this ends with me and
you can clear that familypattern as well.
Then we have soul contracts,like I explained with my
daughter, which is like, alsobrings us to the destiny points
in our akashic records.
Um, sometimes our soul, basedon what it's experienced, you
(39:12):
know, like in the other slicesif let's say we were killed, we
might have a wounding there as asoul, we might lose a part of
ourselves.
So you could then think of theapple and you could think like
it getting a little moldy maybe,or it's getting a little rotten
, because that's the soul that'simpacted.
If it's not a healthy apple,then the soul is getting getting
(39:33):
impacted.
But when you work in theAkashic records because it
contains the entire story andthat is sort of how you're
getting the apple slice of thislifetime, so you can clean the
apple, you can heal the soul.
When you start healing that,you clear away the karmic
patterns, you clear away theenergetic interferences in
(39:54):
between, you clear away.
Sometimes there are other peopleor other beings that come in
between as well.
That's um, walk-ins are alittle bit common as well.
We just don't know, and it'salmost like when somebody drives
your car instead of you andthen they do things with it.
Um, example of a walk-in couldbe um, or like someone else
(40:17):
operating through you is, let'ssay, when you're angry.
And a lot of times when we'reangry, we say something and we
go like gosh, I don't know wherethat came from, like that
wasn't me, yeah, and yeah, andthat is because somebody was
driving your car.
Like you don't know, butsomebody got in your car and
(40:38):
they crash it, et cetera, etcetera.
Whatever they do, you live withthat consequence, but with
somebody else driving it and notyou.
So a lot of times when we feelconfused, when we feel like our
heads, you know, we're not ableto concentrate because what's
really happening in our car,like in our body, in our car,
(41:03):
like in our body, there's justdifferent people in there who
are sitting there.
So it's a very crowded car andwe are like one tiny piece in
that car.
So that's why we get muddledwith all the thoughts.
But when you're doing all thehealing in the Akashic records,
you can keep clean all thosepeople off as well and you can
reclaim your car for yourself.
So life becomes a lot cleaner.
Um, it's like, um, imaginetuning into the radio.
(41:24):
Well, no one does it anymore.
Um, but, but but if you couldstill remember that time, you
know, like when the channel isnot clear and then suddenly the
channel is clear.
It's that bit yeah, where it'sreally still okay.
Uh, where, like if you and Iare talking, the signal is not
(41:46):
weak, the signal is really good,we can understand each other.
Um, whatever you want to do inyour life, that's really
possible.
Um, the light ahead for you isvery clear.
Where you need to go, where youwant to go, that is what the
Akashic Records can do, or whatenergy healing can do for you,
because it just cleans away allthe other spiderwebs and all the
(42:07):
other dirt, all the otherheaviness, all that stuff, and
so you're left with a muchlighter and higher vibration in
your life.
Kertia (42:15):
Yeah, that's amazing.
You mentioned walk-ins and Ithink this is something that we
don't well, I don't hear beingspoken a lot about.
You know, I think from myknowledge as well.
Another aspect of that is likewhen you take substances right
(42:37):
and how that can impact you.
Like, if you know that oneperson that when they drink a
lot of alcohol, theirpersonality completely changes,
right, it's like they become acompletely different human being
.
Yeah, I think I've I've seenthat occur with people, even in
(42:58):
my own family, whereby they justbecome a completely different
human being when they turn off?
Kanika (43:05):
Yeah, and sometimes we allow that.
You know a lot of times, allthe things that happen.
Our soul has a lot of free will.
It is a free will planet.
A lot of times we givepermission to this and now it
sounds like why?
Why would you give permissionto that?
But again, I'll give examples.
Let's say, first time I wasdriving a car and now I don't
(43:25):
know what to drive.
I'm younger, right, I don'tknow when I'm supposed to apply
the brakes and so on, so I'm notgrounded, I'm not really
connected, I'm not fully in mycar.
And they were both car examples.
But that's when someone else cancome and sit in my body because
I'm really saying, okay, I needsomeone or I need help so that
(43:47):
I can drive it.
So when we are scared, when weare, that's when we get like a
normal state.
A normal grounded state is whenwe are grounded, we are, we are
not as affected by thingsaround us.
That's when we are fully in thebody.
And that's why, observe kids.
(44:09):
There's such a good exerciselike even if you don't have kids
around you, like just watch kidvideos, watch real kids, like
just doing their thing and so on, watch kids in a playground,
but you will know that they havea sense of centeredness,
they're okay with the nature,they'll like play by themselves
(44:29):
or whatever they're doing, butthey're very much in their body.
They know what they want mostof the times and as adults we
lose that more and more becausewe're trying to do what someone
else wants us to do.
So, in terms of walk-ins, thethings to check for are if
you're saying things that arenot yours, if there's clouded
(44:51):
emotions, if you're not clearabout things and sometimes we
take pride in that Like we go.
Oh, you know, I really enjoyhaving a drink because then,
like there's this fun side of methat comes out, but you could
be in your body and you couldstill have fun, like you
wouldn't need alcohol for that.
When you are happy, this is thelonger term happiness.
(45:15):
You know, alcohol or otherhappiness hits, let's say, which
is all incentivized in theworld today drugs, alcohol, um,
even um, like gaming or allthose things.
When you get those high spikesbut you come back and you're
still sad.
That's just a spike.
That's not your state ofhappiness.
(45:36):
The state of happiness is whenyou are happy like this so like
something happens, you're happy.
Something doesn't happen.
You're happy, like you wake upin the morning.
You're happy, like what thatwould mean is you're excited
about your days.
You are generally balanced.
Also, you will notice outsidethings in your life also.
(46:00):
You will notice outside thingsin your life like life will go a
lot more smoothly.
You are not upset, you are notin a rush, it's all going okay.
That's the happiness, that'sthe I want to say more zen, but
it's.
It's like more calm, it's morelonger lasting happiness and
that's what is.
That's when you are in controlof your body, that's when you
(46:20):
are in control of your own caryeah, yeah, that's a great
example.
Kertia (46:26):
I think you know the way that we have been programmed to
live our lives and seeourselves and the way that we've
been programmed to do all thesociety things.
We are so far away from thatthat just like that state where
we're grounded and so naturallywe seek those hits right,
(46:49):
whether it's through drugs, sex,alcohol, all the things right.
So I don't know, like, how doyou then you know from your
experience, like, how do youfind, for example, like a
balance from indulging in thethings that you generally enjoy,
but not using it as a means toescape?
Kanika (47:14):
I think that would depend on everyone.
I think that would depend oneveryone.
(47:35):
That would depend on what youwant to do.
Let's start of.
People will have crashingrelationships and they know that
they want to change somethingand usually this is what happens
.
This is what I've seen ispeople will go and they will
make themselves really busy.
That's one pattern where theygo okay, you know, I'm just
(47:55):
going to go out and I'm justgoing to do lots of things,
because that's their way ofescaping, because it's so hard
to be in the body.
Then the other thing could belike taking some other
substances, watching a lot ofmovies, like just being busy
somehow, because it is so hardto be with yourself inside.
So first you have to come to aplace where you're okay to be
(48:16):
with you, and I've been in thatplace.
Like I've been to the placewhere it was very hard for me
when I was, um, you know,grieving the loss of my daughter
.
I knew I had to shift something, uh, but it was just very hard
and all that I used to do then.
And you have to find your ownthing, like how can you just be
with yourself and surroundyourself with positive thoughts?
You have to find your stuff.
(48:38):
But see, what are the littlethings that help you like even
little little things you couldgo with.
Okay, I like journaling or Ilike going out, and maybe those
things are at that time veryintimidating because you still
have to like face yourself.
And I'll explain why.
That is very hard at that timeto just sit down with yourself,
(48:58):
because the moment you startsitting down and being alone and
like quietening the noises, younotice.
So there's all these otherpeople in your car or you know.
All these people came inbecause of certain things where
you call them.
So when I'm saying people, Ialso mean like someone else's
thoughts, someone else'sjudgment, but right now you
(49:19):
don't know that it's someoneelse.
You're actually reading it asyours.
Like someone else had told youwhen you were younger that you
should keep quiet, or someonehad said that you know this is
not good and you are not enoughin some way.
So when all of those thoughtssit inside you, or all those
people sit inside you, you arelooking at that and you're going
this is me and you don't likeit then and that's your first
(49:44):
time, or your first few times,when you're sitting with
yourself.
That's why the road to startthat inner healing journey is
very, very hard.
Because, it's very brave.
It takes a lot of courage tosit inside and look at all of
that, which appears to be allyou.
So the other thing you could dois start finding the positive
people who'll help you.
Now that could be there lots ofpodcasts now.
(50:06):
There are lots of other booksmy time I was listening.
There's a lot that's availableon YouTube as well but find the
people who speak to you andwhose thoughts you will resonate
with, because you need a gooddose of that, like coming in
because you've got all thisnegativity that you're seeing
and feeling.
So you need to have, like, apositive system.
If you want to have a coach, ifyou want to have a teacher
(50:27):
around that time that's good todo as well.
You can bring that in um andthen start asking the universe
say help me.
We don't do that like just sayhelp me, help me.
What do I do so that I feelbetter?
And ask again and again, askfor a sign.
There are um.
(50:47):
If we look at the emotions chart, when you want to climb up with
a higher vibration, gratitudecomes in very high vibration,
like, especially if you're inthe lower vibrations of sadness
and so on.
So you could just start goingwith gratitude and in the
beginning it might feel like, um, you know, might might feel
like what a silly exercise thisis, but you could really start
(51:12):
doing gratitude and there'senough to be thankful about.
Like I used to be thankful towater, I still am, because where
I am, where I can drink waterfrom the tap and even if you
can't, let's say you're gettingbottled water somebody is giving
you bottled water.
Like somehow that bottled wateris reaching your space.
So think of the process that'shappened and how it's all coming
(51:36):
into your place.
Think of the food that you buyhow it's all coming into your
place.
Think of the food that you buy.
Think of you know there wouldhave been a farmer who's grown
it somewhere, then someone'spicked it, shipped it.
You're getting that fruit orvegetable or meat.
You're getting that to yourspace.
Like there's a lot that we canbe thankful about.
Maybe we have better bodiesthan other people, healthier
(51:57):
bodies, maybe we are more bodiesthan other people, healthier
bodies, maybe we are morecomfortable than other people.
We have a place to sleep, sitdown, relax, whatever you can
find.
But everything starts with youand it's up to you to start
bringing in that higher light.
So gratitude is a good place,even thanking the universe, the
sky, the sun, the sun um theearth, the stars, whatever you
(52:21):
can find.
But just do that gratitude moreand more, because here's the
cool thing the more you do itlike, the higher vibration will
attract more of that highervibration.
It will start coming back toyou.
If you're listening to all thosegreat people and there's so
many who are talking on you knowthese um spiritual podcasts so,
(52:41):
so to speak, or youtubechannels, whoever is um whoever
you feel aligned with, but whenyou listen to them, then your
vibration is going to rise.
But separate yourself from thelower vibration.
Things come to places thatactually make you that longer
time happy.
Yeah, that give you more peace,but you don't need that hit
(53:06):
absolutely.
Kertia (53:07):
Yeah, that was great.
So I want to know, like,because you mentioned energy
healing before, are youcurrently incorporating any
energy healing, because I knowthe work that you're doing with
the Akashic Records.
That is a lot in itself, likeyou can get so much done
(53:28):
accessing the Akashic Records,but are you also implementing
other forms of healingmodalities into the work that
you're currently doing?
Kanika (53:38):
Yeah, so I do energy healing as well with the Akashic
Records.
That's the big thing.
Like people want to know theroot cause of why something
happened.
But you know, that's all right.
Even if you know, even ifyou're aware, that's just one
bit of it.
And so what I love to do andwhat I love to spend time on is
the energy healing.
Now I that would be the ego inme if it said that, oh, you know
(54:03):
, I do the energy healing andit's so great.
But actually what happens whenI sit down in the Akashic
records?
It's such high vibration andthat time I just have spirit
guides who, like, sometimesthey're my spirit guide,
sometimes they're other angelsand beings who are like coming
and doing something which isjust so cool.
So they come and then they dothe healing as well in the
kashik records, reading that Ido so, which is really amazing
(54:25):
because I do see a very bigshift with my clients, the
before and after, and that'sbecause I allow myself to just
be the channel.
My intention always is thatwhatever root cause you've had,
like let's say, if you've, ifyou've had, you know, a history
of toxic relationships, or I amalso recently attracting a lot
of clients with co-parentingthings, where they want to have,
(54:49):
like, just a better space fortheir kids or they're having
some sort of battle with the exwhile they have kids and just
wanting to keep all of that morepeaceful, because you've still
got a family in between and youwant to grow them with as much
love, give them as much freedomas you possibly can.
So but what I notice the beforeand the after is like we look
(55:15):
at it energetically, weunderstand what had happened,
and then it's almost like you dothe healing and by the time
it's all done, like the energyis so clear, it's just so
different.
And so the legal battles, likethe stories where you know the
client, their ex has filed alegal battle against them for
child custody and it's like avery strong claim but they're
(55:37):
going to lose the daughter, likelose seeing, lose the rights to
see her as often.
And then it's just like, oh youknow, maybe I'm not doing the
right thing and that comes fromthe ex, and so it's just all
gone.
Wow.
So those sorts of things I'mwitnessing a lot with the
Akashic Records, reading andhealing, and that's why it's
(55:57):
amazing to be able to do that.
But I actually also do teachenergy healing and I also teach.
I just do meditation circles,the moon meditation circles with
the full moon and the new moon,because that's my way of just
bringing more people in and justgiving them other options as
well, like the Akashic Records,reading and healing.
(56:19):
That's just a much morecostlier option, plus more and
more.
If you want to do it, like youneed to have the sessions again
and again.
Right, like they'retransformative, but they're
premium service.
And so the moon meditations andthe energy healing circles is
when I teach you how to do itand then you can go ahead and
you can do it.
And that's like me teaching youto fish so you can keep fishing
(56:41):
.
That's beautiful.
Kertia (56:42):
I love that, I love it.
So you know, like, with allthat being said, we've touched
on so many things today, likewhat message do you have for
people like right now?
Kanika (56:55):
Well, I want to say I was just tuning into the people
who would be listening to thispodcast and just that group
energy and the biggest messagethat's coming here is around
self-love Like a lot of times wefeel like life's lacking for us
and just a gentle reminder thatlife is our mirror.
(57:16):
So we feel like it's allhappening to us, but actually
life is a mirror of what'sinside and I know that hurts,
that's like how, what are yousaying?
Kertia (57:27):
like what am I that messed up inside?
Kanika (57:33):
so so, but there's a little tiny part in you where,
whatever you feel you're notreceiving outside, there's a
tiny part in us where we are notaccepting, where we are, like,
really critical of ourselves,especially this group today.
We're very, very critical ofourselves.
We're really judging ourselves.
We're really going like, whyhaven't I done this?
(57:54):
So just giving ourselvespermission that it's okay, and
permission meaning like how youwould do it with a little child,
how you would do it perhapswith your best friend, how you
would do it with someone elseyou really so cared about, like
just give yourself a hug andthat little part of you a hug
(58:15):
because it really wants that.
So just give that part a hugwhere you feel like you messed
up and you did something, andeven if you don't completely
understand that, you could juststill hug yourself and you could
just go.
Well, I don't know what allparts I'm not really seeing or
appreciating about myself rightnow, but I want to love myself
more, and that much is still abeginning.
(58:37):
Like trust, trust a little bitmore.
Especially, have trust withyourself, and that's when you
will see that the world outsidewill start changing.
That's all.
It's not meant to punish you.
It's not meant to.
Um, like also, you haven't doneanything wrong.
Like we might be feeling in ourbodies that, oh, this is
something right, this issomething wrong that I've done.
We are are judging ourselves.
(58:58):
The soul is not Remember.
The soul was just going out andhaving an experience, so
there's no one judging you.
We judge on earth, but nobodyis judging you.
You were meant to have a fullexperience, so there is
absolutely no way you can doanything wrong.
So just give yourself a hug andjust allow yourself to be.
So just give yourself a hug andjust allow yourself to be.
Kertia (59:19):
Yeah, that's a beautiful message, kanika.
I love that.
Okay, so we'll just end off byyou telling us where we can find
you and access your services.
All that good stuff.
Kanika (59:40):
Yeah.
So I do have an amazing offerfor anyone who's interested and
anyone who wants to explore more.
So I have a freebie.
It's around the soul contractsthat we have in parenting.
So why do you have your child,why did they choose you, why did
you choose them, what are thekarmic patterns you have with
your child and how can you clearthem.
That's all the freebie.
It's a three-part audio series,not very long.
Every day I send you perhaps,like you know, they're not all
(01:00:02):
exactly 10 minutes, but it'sjust a 10 minutes of me talking
and 10 minutes of me telling youwhat to do and so on, and
that's like there's nothing youhave to do after the audios and
so on.
That's very cool because youstart understanding what is the
biggest story with your childwhat does their apple look like,
what does your apple look likeand how your apple's connected,
(01:00:23):
how you're both helping eachother, how are you both
triggering each other, and thenyou can clear out those triggers
as well, so that yourrelationship is a lot more
loving and a lot more enjoyable.
So that can be found atartoflifecentercom slash parent.

and, yeah, until next time.
Thank you again for being herewith me.
You are like a warrior dancer the timeline I'm getting
is about 1780s like feminine,but really in your own power as
in a position of command.
There's other men who feeldefeated by that.
Some feel like they wererejected, even though that
wasn't your thing.
You were just owning your power.
(00:22):
So now they're going to takeaway what you like, and that was
your husband.
Now I'm just calling in thearchangels and they're just
going to begin healing yourwhole space.
You are coming back to youroriginal blueprint, which is to
be operating from a place offeminine empowerment, not
(00:43):
feeling any less.
Kertia (00:45):
Yeah, oh my God, that was a journey.
Kanika (00:49):
It was so cool to see you as this warrior dancer.
Kertia (00:53):
I'm not surprised, because I have a very high
affinity to dancing.
I actually teared up a bitbecause I felt like I could feel
all the emotions.
I really did bring that woundinto this life.
So, whether it be throughparent relationships or
friendships or intimate partnerrelationships, I've always been
(01:15):
left feeling like I'm too much.
Kanika (01:19):
I'm happy it's gone now Exactly, and that is the power
of working in the AkashicRecords, because you get to
bring the gifts and you get toheal all the stuff that should
not be with you.
Kertia (01:30):
Hello everyone, session that I recently received from
today's guest, kanika Vasudeva,who is an Akashic Records reader
and energy healer, and I am sograteful to her for the
(01:54):
beautiful session that sheprovided me with, which will be
found on her podcast.
In today's conversation, wespoke more about the catalyst
that led to the work that shecurrently does, and she touched
on how working with the akashicrecords can really help you to
have a larger perspective ofyour soul's journey and even to
(02:18):
identify the aspects of yourselfthat needs healing, and she
really demonstrated how profoundthis work is when she looked
into my own records and took methrough a past life where I
experienced a wound so deep thatthe energy of all of that had
(02:42):
lasting effects into my currentlife.
Guys, when I tell you, it was amess, and she helped me to heal
a lot of that, it was truly abeautiful experience.
So you can go check out mypersonal experience with Kanika
(03:05):
on the Art of Life podcast onher YouTube channel.
I'll include the link to thatin the show notes of this
episode.
All right, let's get into itokay, kanika hi, this
(03:39):
conversation with you.
I'm so excited to be here.
Thanks for having me on theshow.
Definitely, we're talking aboutakashic records today and
you've been an energy coach ineverything that you're doing.
You know you're very muchheavily in the service industry
right now, on the spiritual sideof things, so I'd love for you
to tell me a bit about how yougot into what you were doing and
(03:59):
why this work is so importantright now.
Kanika (04:02):
I love the question because I think a lot of people
will resonate with the story inthe sense that I began, or my
life really started, a lot like,you know, general life, a lot
of people leading the same way.
So I grew up not really knowingwhat I wanted to do, and I was
(04:29):
the good girl.
I followed what my mom and dadwanted me to do.
I followed, perhaps whatsociety wanted me to do, and so
much that I didn't even knowthat that's what I was following
.
That's the pattern that I wasdoing.
So I'm an engineer, I'm an MBAby background.
I've led multi-billion dollarprojects across various
(04:53):
companies across the globe, andthe reason I say that is because
I was such a black and whiteperson.
I was so far away from thespiritual world, so to speak.
Life was very logical, life isvery scientific, which I think
is a lot of how the worldoperates, and that's why I was
saying that, in that backgroundsense, a lot of people would
(05:13):
understand that and because I'vebeen there.
And so, as I fast forward inthat life, there's this time
where I'm starting to feelreally burnt out.
I'm not really motivated bylife anymore and things are not
working.
I know they're not working, butI did not know really what to
(05:34):
do about it.
So I did try that time tomeditate, which actually, for my
engineer mind did not work then, because I would meditate for
five minutes and that was reallyhard, like calming my brain
down for five minutes, nothaving another thought, like a.
That was so hard.
But then if I did it, let's say, or if I, you know, calmed it
(05:57):
for just two minutes, I would belike, okay, so I had a good
meditation today.
And now what?
Yeah, like how's my lifeshifted with that?
Because I would come back tothe same world and that would
still be the same chaos, thesame disconnection, the same
overwhelm, the same stress, thesame problems that I was feeling
(06:18):
as before.
So it hadn't changed and to meit wasn't working.
I tried the self-care stuff, Itried the affirmations, then
they weren't really landing inme.
Now, that time my son was alittle bit above two years old,
but you know, just slightlyabove, and I was pregnant with
(06:39):
my daughter.
The pregnancy was going reallywell, but I wasn't doing well,
like, like if I went to thedoctors.
Yes, the results were okay,everything was fine.
But I know my first pregnancywith my son.
And then this pregnancy, it wasdifferent.
Like I would wake up crying,crying like proper crying, and a
(07:03):
lot of times it was like that.
So I knew I was in trouble,like something was really wrong.
I just didn't know how to fixit.
And then one day I woke upactually I had a very good sleep
and I woke up feeling like that, but I just did not have any
(07:23):
body movements.
I did not feel her moving asmuch at night, so that was a
troublesome sign went to thedoctors, realized that she had
no heartbeat.
Then I had to give birth to astillborn, which was so opposite
what I'd ever imagined.
(07:43):
And I think within all of thatand after all of that is when I,
when the world really brokedown for me, like the earth
below underneath, just slippedaway because there was no way of
hiding anymore and also because, like, my emotions are finally
so hard hitting.
(08:04):
Um, the shame was very real,the shame around.
You know, that was a job I wassupposed to do and I lost my
child.
Um, the guilt that I sleptthrough it.
Um, the questions that maybe Icaused it and I really wanted to
reach out, I really wanted toconnect with her, all those
(08:25):
things, and I was like, well, amI a good mom?
Because, you know, maybe I'vedone something here, so I really
needed to reach out to her.
So with this, that is where themindset shift really started
happening, because the step thatI was trying to look at earlier
, all the logical thinking andso on, this time I had to
(08:48):
believe that there was somethingthat was far greater than me
and my little brain couldcomprehend.
So I started my journey intoenergy healing, started my
journey into Akashic RecordsDidn't quite start like that.
I did go to a lot of otherintuitives, I tried to find my
answers through them, but Iwanted to connect with my
(09:09):
daughter by myself, because Iwanted to have a conversation
with her.
I wanted to understand if shewas doing okay.
I wanted to have a chat withher, explain my things like sort
of ask for forgiveness.
I just really wanted that.
So I would be asking that timeto the universe again and again
that please show me a way.
I need to connect with her.
And that's what got me intoenergy healing and Akashic
(09:35):
Records.
And what I learned was that thisfelt really hard in the body,
but actually I had a soulcontract with my daughter.
So I had asked her that I'mgoing to go on earth, I'm going
to live this life, and if youfeel like I'm wasting my life
again, like I'm just repeatingthe same things, I'm not
(09:56):
progressing, I'm not evolvingthrough the pain, then come and
like, really kick me because Idon't want to waste another life
.
So they had tried my daughter,all the other spirit guides that
they tried again and again,like you know, giving me those
signs where I was feeling reallydisconnected, where I would
wake up crying.
They were giving me the signsall along.
(10:16):
I just wasn't ready to fullyreceive it, and so they had to
bring out the full thing that,hey, girl, you, you need to stop
like, you need to think of lifeanother way, and so that's what
they did.
So it's really what I asked for,and so this is the biggest
thing that I want to share withthe listeners as well that
there's lots of times when wefeel that life's really bad to
(10:38):
us and it feels like we are thevictim.
Maybe consider changing thatquestion and just going like
okay, why is this happening tome?
Really from the evolutionperspective and really from the
learning perspective?
Because there is so much moreto your story than just that.
Whatever that is happening, andyour soul, your spirit guides,
(11:01):
they're all looking after you.
They've got unconditional lovefor you.
You've got support, even if itfeels like it's not feeling like
that on earth.
But you're so, totally lovedthat's a beautiful message.
Kertia (11:17):
Kanika, tell me what was it like when you first
connected, reconnected, withyour daughter.
What was that like?
Kanika (11:29):
It was like homecoming, but in a very different way.
So first of all and I thinkthat's where that's a big
message as well that between meand between all that connection,
the biggest barrier, as much asI wanted it was me, which
(11:50):
sounds so counterintuitive, likehow can I be blocking my
awareness?
How can I be blocking what Ireally dearly wanted?
Yeah, but the first step that Ihad to do for that was really
sit down and forgive myself, andI remember doing that exercise,
doing that meditation and justcrying a lot.
I was forgiving myself thatit's okay.
(12:12):
So forgiveness also meant likebeing able to love myself, being
able to accept that I sleptthat night, being able to accept
that, okay, something happenedand that's fine.
It was that there was that partwhich was disconnecting me.
So once I could do that, sowhen I was reconnecting with her
, she wanted to come through.
(12:33):
She was like sending me signsall throughout.
She was always there.
Whenever I would write someletters, even before, like you
know, I could actually tap inand properly talk to her.
She was always there.
I could feel tap in andproperly talk to her.
She was always there, I couldfeel her.
And this is how I know itbecause I just had her presence
in my womb, right like I hadn'tknown her in the body.
(12:54):
Yeah, that was the onlyconnection I had, and so you
think, like, how can someonelike that communicate?
Now, when I was pregnant with,there was a special tea that I
would drink a lot, and that teahas an aftertaste.
It's like a sweet aftertaste.
It's an Indian herbal thingthat you get which is not even
properly a tea, but I would takethat a lot with hot water, and
(13:16):
so it was my tea.
It just has a very sweet tasteand it's a taste that you cannot
miss.
Now I would have that after Iwould have, you know, anything.
I would have it, like during along drive.
I hadn't had anything beforeafter like for a long time, so
it was unmistakably somethingthat was just coming through.
(13:39):
And then that's how I startedknowing, okay, she's here with
me and so she, like she wastrying, she's here with me and
so she, like she was trying, shewas trying her level best to
connect.
You know, the only person inbetween was me.
So when I had a chat with her,when I could really just sit
down, all that was needed wasjust for me to sit down and
ground my own emotions, not feelas emotional about it.
(14:01):
Emotional about it, like beable to forgive myself and just
allow, perhaps, just a thoughtthat, okay, you know, let's just
connect with her and it's okay,like, even if we can just start
with that.
Any parent who's gone throughanything similar like this I can
guarantee I've taken otherparents through the same
(14:23):
exercise who've also lost theirkids, and I've, in one session,
one hour, I've taken otherparents through the same
exercise who've also lost theirkids and I've, in one session,
one hour, I've been able to helpthem to connect with their kids
.
So it is possible and all youneed to do is just ground
yourself, ground your emotions.
Then you can have thatconnection with your child, so
with her.
That was beautiful because I waslike, hey, how are you?
(14:45):
My first question was how areyou, are you okay and are you
fine?
And she was okay, she was good.
Then I told her that I wasfeeling really sad and what did
she want out of me and why didshe come?
And why did she not come then?
Because I hadn't planned tohave a baby.
She was like the surprise NewYear gift and then she wasn't
there and she told me the soulcontract and she told me that
(15:11):
she just wanted me to be happy.
I asked her okay, how do youwant me now and how do you want
to be around with us, and so on.
So we just had someunderstanding there around how
she would be in touch.
But I know that she's alwaysaround, even now.
Like there are times wheresomething's really um, you know,
like there's a significantshift or something that's
(15:32):
happening in my life, and Ihaven't again eaten anything
like that, but I'll just havethat taste in my mouth.
I'm like, okay, there she is,and she's just saying that it's
okay yeah that's beautiful it's,yeah, it's, it's different,
it's different and it's samelike it's.
Just for me it's just so strongthat there's nothing like where
(15:56):
I say, oh, this is justsomething that I'm making up,
it's just not that, because it'snot a common taste.
Kertia (16:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I totally get that.
Thank you so much for sharingthat with me, because I think
it's something that we don'thear being spoken about.
A lot Loss like this for moms.
It can be isolating, it can besuch an isolating experience and
(16:23):
it can be also equallyconfusing.
There's so much grieving andthere's so much like that
self-blame that goes on withthat.
So I think you talking aboutthis offers such a level of
comfort, not to say that, ofcourse, like you have to go
(16:45):
through the grieving process andfeel those emotions right,
because that's what we're hereto experience.
You know, we're here toexperience all emotions on, like
the, the whole spectrum of it,right, but at the same time,
like you speaking about beingable to ground yourself so that
you can make that connectionright, and that our loved ones,
(17:09):
when they transition to theother side, that they're still
around, they're just in adifferent form and it's just up
to us to kind of remove our ownblockage so that we can make
that connection.
So thank you for speaking onthat.
That was beautiful.
Kanika (17:28):
I think that's just a passion for me.
You know, I never knew it atthe time, but for me that's why
parenting and all the parentingbonds, everything that we
experience as a parent, it isjust something where I want to
bring peace to as many people asI can Also just around this
(17:49):
grief and loss.
It's not just a mom, I'verealized, it's also the dad,
it's also the family.
Like I know about anotherclient and when her mom lost her
daughter, and when her mom losther daughter she was probably
six or seven at the time and youknow, as usual in families when
(18:20):
something like that happens,you sort of don't talk about it,
because that's mostly how a lotof us know how to deal with the
situation.
What that creates, though, itcreates that silent wound.
It's still there.
You haven that silent wound.
It's still there.
You haven't addressed it.
It's there.
And even for the other peoplein the family that's still there
as well, because they wereawaiting something too.
And for this client that Ilooked, she was sad because she
had a family of brothers and shereally wanted that sister.
(18:43):
And so even after years, when Ihad looked at her like she's in
her 40s now, so that would havebeen in her when she was six or
seven years old, so that longago and she was still carrying
that, because if she had asister she would have had a
bridesmaid.
You know, it would just havebeen different that way.
It would just have been adifferent bonding.
(19:04):
So oftentimes we think we areprotecting.
Oftentimes, actually, we'redealing with our own grief, so
we don't even know how to handleother people then.
But when you can, it is a goodidea.
My son was two, a little bitwell, two and a half when I lost
her, so so my son did not knowanything about it.
(19:25):
And then there's one time,probably he was about six, and
he and I were having aconversation and he said
something like you know, I'myour only child.
And I did not want to lie tohim and I said, well, you know,
mom had a daughter as well.
And then he was like well, whathappened?
And where is she?
(19:45):
I said, well, she passed away.
And he's like, okay, becausehe's a six-year-old child, like
just trying to grasp somethinglike that.
If you don't make it so bigchildren can just be taking
things in face value.
So he sort of digested that andhe's like oh, and he's like why
didn't you tell me?
I said well, two, you were verylittle, I didn't even know how
to explain that to you.
And he's like why didn't youtell me?
I said, well, two, you werevery little, I didn't even know
(20:05):
how to explain that to you.
And he's like okay, but youshould have told me, you should
have told me sooner.
Like all right, how soon?
When could I have told you?
And he said, well, when I wasfour, you could have told me.
And I'm like okay.
(20:26):
And then his next question therewas well, so is there anything
else that you're hiding from me.
I'm like, no, hun, you knoweverything, you know everything
about me.
I'm not hiding anything fromyou.
And you're like, okay, but I'msharing this again, that with
this perspective that we feelthat they don't know.
Maybe we haven't talked aboutit, they don't know.
But your kids are ready, youdon't need to make it as big,
(20:52):
but whenever you feel if youwant to, it's an invitation, you
can tell them.
They'll appreciate the honesty.
And my son's very innocentquestion then leads to that
thing Like yes, I mean, in somesense it's very logical Like, if
they feel that we haven't toldthem something, it can lead to
oh, okay, there were othersecrets in my family that I
(21:14):
wasn't told about.
So if you want to have an openrelationship, it starts with us
and whenever you feel you canand it does not just apply to
this, it applies to othersituations as well um, I, I grew
up in a family which alwayswanted to protect me, and I
think a lot of parents do and inthat sense there were lots of
(21:36):
things that were hidden.
Um, not that they wanted to hide, but they just felt that, okay,
I was better off not knowingthem.
But perhaps there is apossibility where, whatever we
are going through you know atwork if you're feeling down or
so on we feel like our kidsshould see our best self and
that's a lot of pressure on us.
But also we're not reallypreparing them for what life's
(21:57):
about.
So whenever you can give them alittle small snippet like okay,
mom's very tired today becausemom had this at work, or or you
know mommy's having a difficulttime with this and this person,
you don't need to go into biggerdetails, but as as neutral and
as sort of like information youcan give it to them.
I think it's it's a betterawareness for them yeah, that is
(22:25):
true.
Kertia (22:27):
Yeah, that is true.
I'm all for parents being openand honest with their kids, of
course, explaining things in away that is age appropriate.
But, yeah, like that is soimportant, you know, because
when your kids get older andthey start finding things out,
then they do feel like you know,they feel like okay, why was
(22:54):
this such a secret?
Or they feel like they've beenlied to you know, they feel
deceived and they also they havea lot of emotions around that,
like I definitely have.
There are many things that Ican think about that were not
spoken about in my family, thatI can think about that were not
(23:15):
spoken about in my family and Ifelt like, had I had the
information earlier, it couldhave helped me in different ways
, maybe given me a perspectivebetter perspective of things,
helped me to understand certainthings better and even how to
navigate certain things in mylife better.
So, yeah, I think oftentimes,of course, with good intention,
(23:36):
we want to protect our kids, butwe also need to be very
realistic and be open abouttalking to kids about this, like
death and all of these thingsthat are difficult to talk about
.
Kanika (23:50):
It's yeah, it's very important yeah, and the other
thing I see with kids and mysons, obviously being the other
great teacher, I feel that a lotof times as parents, we think
we know better yeah like, youknow, the little little kids,
little bodies, and we just knowbetter than them.
(24:11):
Yeah, um, and I think we need toat least recognize that we are
all souls.
We are all souls who have abody.
So, yes, in a body there isthis tiny awareness.
Sometimes, you know you need tohelp them with even toilet
training or simple things whichmight feel like, okay, we need
to really help them.
And they don't know things, butwe're discounting their
(24:39):
abilities.
We're discounting theirabilities to fully understand
and grasp, we're not fullycomprehending them as a soul,
how much awareness and how muchfuller potential they're
bringing in.
And, yes, they might need a lotof things to learn as a soul as
well.
They might need a lot of thingsto learn and a soul as well.
They might need a lot of thingsto learn and that's okay.
That's why we have them,because they'll teach us
something, we'll learn somethingfrom them.
(24:59):
It's a two-way process, but, um, it's good to.
Perhaps.
Consideration is that maybe wecan, we can treat them as fuller
individuals.
We can see them.
You know their age is tiny, butthey're wiser souls.
Kertia (25:16):
Absolutely, absolutely, yeah.
Yeah, our kids have much morepotential than we give them
credit for.
In many ways they can be muchwiser than us.
Yeah, yeah children aredefinitely some of our greatest
teachers.
Kanika (25:38):
Like I think, for example, you know, kids know how
to smile so much easier and itis a life skill, like really.
So first we sort of take thataway, we.
You know, if we follow theprogram of life generally that
the world operates on, it's like, okay, you sort of have to get
serious about whatever you needto do, about your studies and so
(26:00):
on.
Then get serious about yourwork and get really serious,
right, like that's, that'sserious, it's serious stuff.
And everybody will say stopfooling around with you know,
just your music or or whateverit is that you do for fun.
It's almost like, well, thefun's not okay.
So, you know, why don't youjust focus more and settle and
do the right thing?
And so we all are supposed tofollow that pattern.
(26:23):
Guess what?
Like okay, then the patterngoes on.
Then you're supposed to marryor find a partner.
Then you're supposed to settledown, like generally, that's the
pattern.
You're supposed to then earn inlife.
You're supposed to then, youknow, buy more things, get a
house and so on, start a family.
Like that's the pattern.
And usually a lot of us followthat pattern.
We follow that pattern.
We come at the other end andthat's like the 30s crisis, the
(26:45):
40s crisis, the 50s crisis, whenwe go well, well, we're not
really happy with our life.
But guess what?
What happened?
You knew that, right, youoperated out of the system.
And then we say, oh, now I'mnot happy, so our kids can
really teach us how to stayhappy.
(27:07):
And when someone says I don'tknow my purpose or I feel
disconnected, kids can be thebiggest teachers there.
Perhaps we can also.
You know, instead of puttingall that pressure because we're
trying to do the same templateon them as well, pressurize them
for the same template.
That does not make us feelhappy.
(27:28):
So if we them be, there's somuch possibility for us to
operate from our own light.
Because happiness is coming whenyou're operating on your divine
path, like whatever that isthat you came down to do as a
soul.
That's when your happiness iscoming.
So it's really whatever lightsyou up, that's your path, like
(27:50):
it's not more complicated thanthat, very simple.
And so if we just let kids be,instead we have the pressure,
like we feel, oh, if my child'sjust doing this, perhaps they're
not doing right and you know,then they will not settle down,
they will not have a proper jobtomorrow.
Or like we worry about all theoptions.
But if we just all operated inour own light, it's all
(28:11):
perfectly made Like we will getthe job, or whatever pressures,
whatever we are thinking, youknow we will all get that
because it was all pre-plannedanyway that this is what we're
supposed to do.
We'll all get those things andwe'll all be much happier if we
stop trying to conform to thesystem as much.
Kertia (28:33):
I love that.
Yes, I'm here for everythingyou just said.
Kanika (28:39):
Yeah, like, think of the world and think of, like, all
the people who are different.
Like think of Steve Jobs.
He changed the world.
All the people who have beensuch blessings are there, lots
of people who've actually beenvery different and they've
actually followed their passion.
So somewhere we've got a beliefthat, oh, you know all like the
(29:03):
spiritual stuff, this is allvoo-voo or um, like well, work's
got to be hard or you shouldnot really enjoy because you
know then you're not serious.
Like work.
Generally, there is morepermission to be a workaholic
than to not be.
It's almost like a pattern thatokay, you have to work hard to
(29:27):
get money, your job is going tobe hard.
It's like I mean, think of it.
If we all knew this right, assouls we incarnate here, like
really, if life was supposed tobe this tough, why would you
come down?
Why would anyone come down?
Kertia (29:45):
Yeah, yeah, we make it way more difficult for ourselves
.
Definitely Right.
Yeah, yeah, it's true Listeningto you and you mentioned
following our divine path andhow beneficial that is to us.
Going back to the AkashicRecords, I'd love to know how
(30:08):
you kind of like use that inhelping people to recognize what
their path is.
Or you mentioned soul contractsearlier when you spoke about
your daughter or what that meansand how that can play out in
our lives.
I'd love for you to speak onthat.
Yeah.
Kanika (30:25):
So, okay, let's start with what the Akashic Records
are.
They are our soul's library ofanything and everything that's
happened in this lifetime or theother lifetimes.
So if I even backtrack fromthere, we are all bodies.
I'm Kanika right now.
(30:45):
You know you are Kershia andwe're talking right now.
But in another lifetime I wouldhave had another form.
Sometimes I would have been afemale, I would have been a male
, I would have not chosen to beany of that.
I would have been on earth, Iwould have been on other
galaxies, whatever we wanted todo.
So the soul is like that sumtotal of awareness.
(31:08):
And why is the soul doing this?
Like getting to all of theselifetimes and doing all these
different things?
Um, it's similar.
Like it wants to learn as well,almost like how we want to
experience things in our lifehere.
Like we'll go out to a lot ofmovie, cinemas.
We want to watch differentstyles of movies.
Sometimes we want somethingthat is a little sad.
Sometimes we want to watch aromantic movie, and so on.
(31:29):
Right, that's a little sad.
Sometimes you want to watch aromantic movie, and so on.
Right, that's a little bit likewhat the soul wants to do as
well.
So if I was to give you ametaphor for that, imagine an
apple and then cut that intothousand slices.
So once you do that and youtake a little slice out which
(31:50):
actually is almost like paperthin right, it's such a thin
slice that comes out becauseyou've cut it into thousand
pieces.
That's one lifetime for yoursoul.
So this is this lifetime, likethis body is just that 1000 part
of that whole apple which lookslike you can almost see through
it.
It's such a thin slice, yeah.
So my whole story is that wholeapple.
(32:13):
It's the, because it's the sumof, like, whatever I've learned
across all the other lifetimes.
Now, what do I want to learn?
As an example?
So maybe my soul wants to learnabout love.
So in one lifetime it will golike okay, let's experience love
and let's just haveunconditional love, so we'll
have a lot of people loving us.
(32:34):
See what that feels like.
Another time it might be likewell, okay, but just sort of
done with that.
Why don't I have someone whobreaks my heart?
And then it's like okay, whydon't we sort of multiply it?
Maybe this time someone breaksmy heart, someone also treats me
of money, because I just wantedto have that experience, and
(32:55):
then it's like well, what if Iturn the table around and I
broke someone's heart or Icheated them or I cheated on
them with another person?
So all of that, for the soul isjust learning about love,
because it's trying tounderstand what happens, like
what expands in the physicalbody.
How do I feel when?
(33:16):
And that's why they say, youknow, when you come to earth,
that's like your physicalfeeling place.
That's why everyone wants tocome here.
So it wants to understand well,how do I expand when I receive
so much love?
How, how do I contract?
What happens when I do not havelove?
What happens when I don't havelove from a colleague or from a
(33:37):
boss?
And then what happens?
How is it different from, let'ssay, not having love from your
mom?
You see, like for the soul,it's almost like different
science experiments.
Yeah, it's just like, okay,let's send you to this movie
cinema and let's see what isyour virtual reality experience
(33:57):
here.
You go to another one, then yougo to another one.
Mine has been a hot mess.
So our soul or our life, likeit's just a virtual reality,
slice right that 1000 feet,which is this lifetime.
So we, we will feel whatever wefeel in this body and we go
(34:20):
like, okay, this is a mess orthis is really crap, but here's
the fun thing.
So soul is not doing it to makeyou feel bad.
Soul is doing it because itwants to evolve and also you
still have the power.
So there's something likedestiny points in your life.
And then there's somethingwhich we've heard of again is
(34:41):
you are the creator.
So if you wanted to change yourstory at any point in time, you
can always do that because youare the creator.
So with my daughter as anexample.
So when we have this wholecontract, it's not like, well,
on this day this will happen andthen this will happen.
It's not like that at all.
It's not milestone based, it'snot event based, it's very
(35:05):
intention based.
So my sole contract was that ifI am growing, that's okay,
nothing happens.
And then if I'm not growing,then do things.
So that you know, help me andhelp me wake up.
So they're trying.
They're trying with the simplerthings.
They're trying to give melittle nudges, like, hey, you're
(35:26):
not happy right now.
You are burnt out.
You have to work when you arewhen you really want to rest.
They are giving me subtle signs.
They're giving me signs thatyou are just doing things for
other people.
You're not really listening toyour own inner voice.
They were giving me signs I didnot listen.
It's very intention-based,because it's all I am the
(35:48):
creator.
Still so they keep allowing me,they keep allowing me, they
keep allowing me.
And then you know, based on theagreements or that destiny,
it's all I am the creator.
Still so they keep allowing me,they keep allowing me, they
keep allowing me.
And then you know, based on theagreements or that destiny,
it's like okay, this is, youhave really come to learn about
your own power, rising in yourown power, and you're not really
doing that.
So this is and that's destinypoint is like the fixed point.
So if I was to give an example,let's say you're supposed to
(36:14):
drive in a car and it's acomplete wide area, like there's
no highway, there's no lanes oranything.
You can go anywhere, but it'srequired for you to go at one
point in time, go through like atunnel, which is the destiny
point tunnel, and only then youcan pass from that one land to
another land, like that's thebridge that connects both, right
(36:36):
, like at some point in timethis is what you need to cross.
So that's that destiny point,so that's already decided.
Like that's what I've alreadysigned up for.
When I came here as a soul that,okay, I want to learn about
just rising in my power, andthat had to happen.
So it is still.
When I look at the whole apple,I still am the creator.
(36:57):
And this is the beauty aboutAkashic records as well, because
a lot of what happens in ourlife is we're carrying sometimes
those scars from this currentlife.
You know where we feel life ishard, where we have those
patterns.
I'll give you examples.
So there can be karmic patterns.
Karmic patterns could be, let'ssay, someone just keeps having
(37:21):
toxic relationships, one afterthe other, after the other.
Kertia (37:24):
So I think I signed up for that one.
Kanika (37:30):
Oh, me too, Me too, me too, and that's how I know, and
that's why I'm giving theexample.
So that one is, yes, the peoplearound you, the one you're in a
relationship with, they are tobe blamed.
They did the wrong thing, butyou know, person one, person two
(37:51):
, person three, they are to beblamed.
They did the wrong thing, butyou know, person one, person two
, person three, I'm still thecommon denominator.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's the realization that,oh, okay, there is something
that I need to do with myselfand so that is the karmic
pattern.
That's where we've got toresolve it and look at why is it
that we keep attracting thosepeople?
So, for that that we clear thekarma, we also clear, um, our
(38:16):
mindset, our belief that wemight have around that as well,
because if it's impacted us somany times, there might be a
belief, a limiting belief, thatwe have around it.
And sometimes those karmicpatterns can be in the families
as well, like family, commonfamily pattern can actually be
around relationships too, likewhere you would see the
(38:38):
generations not really happy intheir relationships.
Kertia (38:42):
Oh yeah, so I have that too Me too.
Kanika (38:48):
Oh, we could keep doing that, yeah.
But the good news is that youcan break that, you can be the
cycle breaker there and you cango okay, this ends with me and
you can clear that familypattern as well.
Then we have soul contracts,like I explained with my
daughter, which is like, alsobrings us to the destiny points
in our akashic records.
Um, sometimes our soul, basedon what it's experienced, you
(39:12):
know, like in the other slicesif let's say we were killed, we
might have a wounding there as asoul, we might lose a part of
ourselves.
So you could then think of theapple and you could think like
it getting a little moldy maybe,or it's getting a little rotten
, because that's the soul that'simpacted.
If it's not a healthy apple,then the soul is getting getting
(39:33):
impacted.
But when you work in theAkashic records because it
contains the entire story andthat is sort of how you're
getting the apple slice of thislifetime, so you can clean the
apple, you can heal the soul.
When you start healing that,you clear away the karmic
patterns, you clear away theenergetic interferences in
(39:54):
between, you clear away.
Sometimes there are other peopleor other beings that come in
between as well.
That's um, walk-ins are alittle bit common as well.
We just don't know, and it'salmost like when somebody drives
your car instead of you andthen they do things with it.
Um, example of a walk-in couldbe um, or like someone else
(40:17):
operating through you is, let'ssay, when you're angry.
And a lot of times when we'reangry, we say something and we
go like gosh, I don't know wherethat came from, like that
wasn't me, yeah, and yeah, andthat is because somebody was
driving your car.
Like you don't know, butsomebody got in your car and
(40:38):
they crash it, et cetera, etcetera.
Whatever they do, you live withthat consequence, but with
somebody else driving it and notyou.
So a lot of times when we feelconfused, when we feel like our
heads, you know, we're not ableto concentrate because what's
really happening in our car,like in our body, in our car,
(41:03):
like in our body, there's justdifferent people in there who
are sitting there.
So it's a very crowded car andwe are like one tiny piece in
that car.
So that's why we get muddledwith all the thoughts.
But when you're doing all thehealing in the Akashic records,
you can keep clean all thosepeople off as well and you can
reclaim your car for yourself.
So life becomes a lot cleaner.
Um, it's like, um, imaginetuning into the radio.
(41:24):
Well, no one does it anymore.
Um, but, but but if you couldstill remember that time, you
know, like when the channel isnot clear and then suddenly the
channel is clear.
It's that bit yeah, where it'sreally still okay.
Uh, where, like if you and Iare talking, the signal is not
(41:46):
weak, the signal is really good,we can understand each other.
Um, whatever you want to do inyour life, that's really
possible.
Um, the light ahead for you isvery clear.
Where you need to go, where youwant to go, that is what the
Akashic Records can do, or whatenergy healing can do for you,
because it just cleans away allthe other spiderwebs and all the
(42:07):
other dirt, all the otherheaviness, all that stuff, and
so you're left with a muchlighter and higher vibration in
your life.
Kertia (42:15):
Yeah, that's amazing.
You mentioned walk-ins and Ithink this is something that we
don't well, I don't hear beingspoken a lot about.
You know, I think from myknowledge as well.
Another aspect of that is likewhen you take substances right
(42:37):
and how that can impact you.
Like, if you know that oneperson that when they drink a
lot of alcohol, theirpersonality completely changes,
right, it's like they become acompletely different human being
.
Yeah, I think I've I've seenthat occur with people, even in
(42:58):
my own family, whereby they justbecome a completely different
human being when they turn off?
Kanika (43:05):
Yeah, and sometimes we allow that.
You know a lot of times, allthe things that happen.
Our soul has a lot of free will.
It is a free will planet.
A lot of times we givepermission to this and now it
sounds like why?
Why would you give permissionto that?
But again, I'll give examples.
Let's say, first time I wasdriving a car and now I don't
(43:25):
know what to drive.
I'm younger, right, I don'tknow when I'm supposed to apply
the brakes and so on, so I'm notgrounded, I'm not really
connected, I'm not fully in mycar.
And they were both car examples.
But that's when someone else cancome and sit in my body because
I'm really saying, okay, I needsomeone or I need help so that
(43:47):
I can drive it.
So when we are scared, when weare, that's when we get like a
normal state.
A normal grounded state is whenwe are grounded, we are, we are
not as affected by thingsaround us.
That's when we are fully in thebody.
And that's why, observe kids.
(44:09):
There's such a good exerciselike even if you don't have kids
around you, like just watch kidvideos, watch real kids, like
just doing their thing and so on, watch kids in a playground,
but you will know that they havea sense of centeredness,
they're okay with the nature,they'll like play by themselves
(44:29):
or whatever they're doing, butthey're very much in their body.
They know what they want mostof the times and as adults we
lose that more and more becausewe're trying to do what someone
else wants us to do.
So, in terms of walk-ins, thethings to check for are if
you're saying things that arenot yours, if there's clouded
(44:51):
emotions, if you're not clearabout things and sometimes we
take pride in that Like we go.
Oh, you know, I really enjoyhaving a drink because then,
like there's this fun side of methat comes out, but you could
be in your body and you couldstill have fun, like you
wouldn't need alcohol for that.
When you are happy, this is thelonger term happiness.
(45:15):
You know, alcohol or otherhappiness hits, let's say, which
is all incentivized in theworld today drugs, alcohol, um,
even um, like gaming or allthose things.
When you get those high spikesbut you come back and you're
still sad.
That's just a spike.
That's not your state ofhappiness.
(45:36):
The state of happiness is whenyou are happy like this so like
something happens, you're happy.
Something doesn't happen.
You're happy, like you wake upin the morning.
You're happy, like what thatwould mean is you're excited
about your days.
You are generally balanced.
Also, you will notice outsidethings in your life also.
(46:00):
You will notice outside thingsin your life like life will go a
lot more smoothly.
You are not upset, you are notin a rush, it's all going okay.
That's the happiness, that'sthe I want to say more zen, but
it's.
It's like more calm, it's morelonger lasting happiness and
that's what is.
That's when you are in controlof your body, that's when you
(46:20):
are in control of your own caryeah, yeah, that's a great
example.
Kertia (46:26):
I think you know the way that we have been programmed to
live our lives and seeourselves and the way that we've
been programmed to do all thesociety things.
We are so far away from thatthat just like that state where
we're grounded and so naturallywe seek those hits right,
(46:49):
whether it's through drugs, sex,alcohol, all the things right.
So I don't know, like, how doyou then you know from your
experience, like, how do youfind, for example, like a
balance from indulging in thethings that you generally enjoy,
but not using it as a means toescape?
Kanika (47:14):
I think that would depend on everyone.
I think that would depend oneveryone.
(47:35):
That would depend on what youwant to do.
Let's start of.
People will have crashingrelationships and they know that
they want to change somethingand usually this is what happens
.
This is what I've seen ispeople will go and they will
make themselves really busy.
That's one pattern where theygo okay, you know, I'm just
(47:55):
going to go out and I'm justgoing to do lots of things,
because that's their way ofescaping, because it's so hard
to be in the body.
Then the other thing could belike taking some other
substances, watching a lot ofmovies, like just being busy
somehow, because it is so hardto be with yourself inside.
So first you have to come to aplace where you're okay to be
(48:16):
with you, and I've been in thatplace.
Like I've been to the placewhere it was very hard for me
when I was, um, you know,grieving the loss of my daughter
.
I knew I had to shift something, uh, but it was just very hard
and all that I used to do then.
And you have to find your ownthing, like how can you just be
with yourself and surroundyourself with positive thoughts?
You have to find your stuff.
(48:38):
But see, what are the littlethings that help you like even
little little things you couldgo with.
Okay, I like journaling or Ilike going out, and maybe those
things are at that time veryintimidating because you still
have to like face yourself.
And I'll explain why.
That is very hard at that timeto just sit down with yourself,
(48:58):
because the moment you startsitting down and being alone and
like quietening the noises, younotice.
So there's all these otherpeople in your car or you know.
All these people came inbecause of certain things where
you call them.
So when I'm saying people, Ialso mean like someone else's
thoughts, someone else'sjudgment, but right now you
(49:19):
don't know that it's someoneelse.
You're actually reading it asyours.
Like someone else had told youwhen you were younger that you
should keep quiet, or someonehad said that you know this is
not good and you are not enoughin some way.
So when all of those thoughtssit inside you, or all those
people sit inside you, you arelooking at that and you're going
this is me and you don't likeit then and that's your first
(49:44):
time, or your first few times,when you're sitting with
yourself.
That's why the road to startthat inner healing journey is
very, very hard.
Because, it's very brave.
It takes a lot of courage tosit inside and look at all of
that, which appears to be allyou.
So the other thing you could dois start finding the positive
people who'll help you.
Now that could be there lots ofpodcasts now.
(50:06):
There are lots of other booksmy time I was listening.
There's a lot that's availableon YouTube as well but find the
people who speak to you andwhose thoughts you will resonate
with, because you need a gooddose of that, like coming in
because you've got all thisnegativity that you're seeing
and feeling.
So you need to have, like, apositive system.
If you want to have a coach, ifyou want to have a teacher
(50:27):
around that time that's good todo as well.
You can bring that in um andthen start asking the universe
say help me.
We don't do that like just sayhelp me, help me.
What do I do so that I feelbetter?
And ask again and again, askfor a sign.
There are um.
(50:47):
If we look at the emotions chart, when you want to climb up with
a higher vibration, gratitudecomes in very high vibration,
like, especially if you're inthe lower vibrations of sadness
and so on.
So you could just start goingwith gratitude and in the
beginning it might feel like, um, you know, might might feel
like what a silly exercise thisis, but you could really start
(51:12):
doing gratitude and there'senough to be thankful about.
Like I used to be thankful towater, I still am, because where
I am, where I can drink waterfrom the tap and even if you
can't, let's say you're gettingbottled water somebody is giving
you bottled water.
Like somehow that bottled wateris reaching your space.
So think of the process that'shappened and how it's all coming
(51:36):
into your place.
Think of the food that you buyhow it's all coming into your
place.
Think of the food that you buy.
Think of you know there wouldhave been a farmer who's grown
it somewhere, then someone'spicked it, shipped it.
You're getting that fruit orvegetable or meat.
You're getting that to yourspace.
Like there's a lot that we canbe thankful about.
Maybe we have better bodiesthan other people, healthier
(51:57):
bodies, maybe we are more bodiesthan other people, healthier
bodies, maybe we are morecomfortable than other people.
We have a place to sleep, sitdown, relax, whatever you can
find.
But everything starts with youand it's up to you to start
bringing in that higher light.
So gratitude is a good place,even thanking the universe, the
sky, the sun, the sun um theearth, the stars, whatever you
(52:21):
can find.
But just do that gratitude moreand more, because here's the
cool thing the more you do itlike, the higher vibration will
attract more of that highervibration.
It will start coming back toyou.
If you're listening to all thosegreat people and there's so
many who are talking on you knowthese um spiritual podcasts so,
(52:41):
so to speak, or youtubechannels, whoever is um whoever
you feel aligned with, but whenyou listen to them, then your
vibration is going to rise.
But separate yourself from thelower vibration.
Things come to places thatactually make you that longer
time happy.
Yeah, that give you more peace,but you don't need that hit
(53:06):
absolutely.
Kertia (53:07):
Yeah, that was great.
So I want to know, like,because you mentioned energy
healing before, are youcurrently incorporating any
energy healing, because I knowthe work that you're doing with
the Akashic Records.
That is a lot in itself, likeyou can get so much done
(53:28):
accessing the Akashic Records,but are you also implementing
other forms of healingmodalities into the work that
you're currently doing?
Kanika (53:38):
Yeah, so I do energy healing as well with the Akashic
Records.
That's the big thing.
Like people want to know theroot cause of why something
happened.
But you know, that's all right.
Even if you know, even ifyou're aware, that's just one
bit of it.
And so what I love to do andwhat I love to spend time on is
the energy healing.
Now I that would be the ego inme if it said that, oh, you know
(54:03):
, I do the energy healing andit's so great.
But actually what happens whenI sit down in the Akashic
records?
It's such high vibration andthat time I just have spirit
guides who, like, sometimesthey're my spirit guide,
sometimes they're other angelsand beings who are like coming
and doing something which isjust so cool.
So they come and then they dothe healing as well in the
kashik records, reading that Ido so, which is really amazing
(54:25):
because I do see a very bigshift with my clients, the
before and after, and that'sbecause I allow myself to just
be the channel.
My intention always is thatwhatever root cause you've had,
like let's say, if you've, ifyou've had, you know, a history
of toxic relationships, or I amalso recently attracting a lot
of clients with co-parentingthings, where they want to have,
(54:49):
like, just a better space fortheir kids or they're having
some sort of battle with the exwhile they have kids and just
wanting to keep all of that morepeaceful, because you've still
got a family in between and youwant to grow them with as much
love, give them as much freedomas you possibly can.
So but what I notice the beforeand the after is like we look
(55:15):
at it energetically, weunderstand what had happened,
and then it's almost like you dothe healing and by the time
it's all done, like the energyis so clear, it's just so
different.
And so the legal battles, likethe stories where you know the
client, their ex has filed alegal battle against them for
child custody and it's like avery strong claim but they're
(55:37):
going to lose the daughter, likelose seeing, lose the rights to
see her as often.
And then it's just like, oh youknow, maybe I'm not doing the
right thing and that comes fromthe ex, and so it's just all
gone.
Wow.
So those sorts of things I'mwitnessing a lot with the
Akashic Records, reading andhealing, and that's why it's
(55:57):
amazing to be able to do that.
But I actually also do teachenergy healing and I also teach.
I just do meditation circles,the moon meditation circles with
the full moon and the new moon,because that's my way of just
bringing more people in and justgiving them other options as
well, like the Akashic Records,reading and healing.
(56:19):
That's just a much morecostlier option, plus more and
more.
If you want to do it, like youneed to have the sessions again
and again.
Right, like they'retransformative, but they're
premium service.
And so the moon meditations andthe energy healing circles is
when I teach you how to do itand then you can go ahead and
you can do it.
And that's like me teaching youto fish so you can keep fishing
(56:41):
.
That's beautiful.
Kertia (56:42):
I love that, I love it.
So you know, like, with allthat being said, we've touched
on so many things today, likewhat message do you have for
people like right now?
Kanika (56:55):
Well, I want to say I was just tuning into the people
who would be listening to thispodcast and just that group
energy and the biggest messagethat's coming here is around
self-love Like a lot of times wefeel like life's lacking for us
and just a gentle reminder thatlife is our mirror.
(57:16):
So we feel like it's allhappening to us, but actually
life is a mirror of what'sinside and I know that hurts,
that's like how, what are yousaying?
Kertia (57:27):
like what am I that messed up inside?
Kanika (57:33):
so so, but there's a little tiny part in you where,
whatever you feel you're notreceiving outside, there's a
tiny part in us where we are notaccepting, where we are, like,
really critical of ourselves,especially this group today.
We're very, very critical ofourselves.
We're really judging ourselves.
We're really going like, whyhaven't I done this?
(57:54):
So just giving ourselvespermission that it's okay, and
permission meaning like how youwould do it with a little child,
how you would do it perhapswith your best friend, how you
would do it with someone elseyou really so cared about, like
just give yourself a hug andthat little part of you a hug
(58:15):
because it really wants that.
So just give that part a hugwhere you feel like you messed
up and you did something, andeven if you don't completely
understand that, you could juststill hug yourself and you could
just go.
Well, I don't know what allparts I'm not really seeing or
appreciating about myself rightnow, but I want to love myself
more, and that much is still abeginning.
(58:37):
Like trust, trust a little bitmore.
Especially, have trust withyourself, and that's when you
will see that the world outsidewill start changing.
That's all.
It's not meant to punish you.
It's not meant to.
Um, like also, you haven't doneanything wrong.
Like we might be feeling in ourbodies that, oh, this is
something right, this issomething wrong that I've done.
We are are judging ourselves.
(58:58):
The soul is not Remember.
The soul was just going out andhaving an experience, so
there's no one judging you.
We judge on earth, but nobodyis judging you.
You were meant to have a fullexperience, so there is
absolutely no way you can doanything wrong.
So just give yourself a hug andjust allow yourself to be.
So just give yourself a hug andjust allow yourself to be.
Kertia (59:19):
Yeah, that's a beautiful message, kanika.
I love that.
Okay, so we'll just end off byyou telling us where we can find
you and access your services.
All that good stuff.
Kanika (59:40):
Yeah.
So I do have an amazing offerfor anyone who's interested and
anyone who wants to explore more.
So I have a freebie.
It's around the soul contractsthat we have in parenting.
So why do you have your child,why did they choose you, why did
you choose them, what are thekarmic patterns you have with
your child and how can you clearthem.
That's all the freebie.
It's a three-part audio series,not very long.
Every day I send you perhaps,like you know, they're not all
(01:00:02):
exactly 10 minutes, but it'sjust a 10 minutes of me talking
and 10 minutes of me telling youwhat to do and so on, and
that's like there's nothing youhave to do after the audios and
so on.
That's very cool because youstart understanding what is the
biggest story with your childwhat does their apple look like,
what does your apple look likeand how your apple's connected,
(01:00:23):
how you're both helping eachother, how are you both
triggering each other, and thenyou can clear out those triggers
as well, so that yourrelationship is a lot more
loving and a lot more enjoyable.
So that can be found atartoflifecentercom slash parent.
So the center is a C-E-N-T-E-Rartoflifecentercom slash parent
(01:00:45):
