When Healing Doesn’t “Stick”: Why You Still Feel Stuck After Doing So Much Work
(And how shamanic healing + energy medicine finally help it land)
There are moments on the healing path when you’ve done everything—therapy, ceremonies, other healing sessions, years of inner work—and yet… the same emotion or pattern keeps looping.
Anger resurfaces.
Grief clings.
Old stories replay.
Or life simply won’t shift the way you know it should by now.
It’s frustrating. It’s confusing. And it can make you wonder, “What am I missing?”
“What’s wrong with me?”
And, “Haven’t I learned this lesson yet?”
If this is you, take a breath. You’re not broken.
There is a reason the healing hasn’t integrated yet, and it lives in the extended realm of energy medicine and shamanic healing—IT’S OFTEN OVERLOOKED.
This is not known by all in my field, and for some reason, it can be forgotten. It’s called aspect maturation.
Why Patterns Persist Even After “Big Healing”
Soul retrieval and energy medicine are far more nuanced than simply “bringing back soul pieces.” They involve clearing trauma imprints, restoring vitality, shifting belief structures, and re-patterning the energetic architecture of your life.
And yet—even after all that—there may still be an inner aspect of you that:
never received the message that the trauma is over
still believes it must protect you at all costs
continues acting from an outdated identity or a survival job
hasn’t caught up with the healed version of you
It’s similar to inner child work, but more dynamic and multidimensional, and less work!
What Is Aspect Maturation?
If there is a part of you that is functioning in an old way - thinking that it still needs to protect you but hasn’t figured out how to BE or act differently, it can continue old behaviors.
In this kind of session, I help the unintegrated part of you grow into the healing you’ve already done.
It might look like this:
This part of you wants to keep you safe. It does this by keeping you hidden.
In place of advocating for you, it keeps you quiet.
It may continue to dismiss your intuition.
And continue to hang on to old stories or feelings like an identity.
This part has not failed you.
It’s been doing its job — brilliantly, cleverly, and loyal as hell.
You’re not trying to sabotage yourself; this part simply hasn’t learned a new way yet.
Its actions come from devotion, not destruction.
If you’re nodding your head right now… if this is shining a new light on your healing path… You may be ready for this work — and ready to meet the inner guardian who has been unknowingly blocking your progress.
This is your moment. You’re ready.
Why This Work Is So Important
Because this aspect is powerful.
It has been protecting you, shaping your decisions, influencing your relationships, and navigating your world. When it evolves, your entire system evolves with it.
We don’t exile this part.
We welcome it home.
We fill it with light, compassion, and the truth of your healed state.
Then together, we discover its new job—one aligned with your wholeness, your sovereignty, and the life you’re here to live.
This is where clients tell me:
“It finally makes sense.”
“I feel like the block is lifted, the patter is gone.”
“Something clicked. There is so much ease.”
“I love myself more.”
You’re Not Stuck.
You’re Ready for the Next Layer of Healing.
If you’ve been looping a pattern…
If your emotions keep recycling…
If you’ve done “all the healing” and still feel blocked…
Your system may simply need this deeper integrative session.
This is where shamanic healing, soul retrieval, and energy medicine truly shine—and I love it!
The Ceremonial Healing
That Makes Integration Possible
In this specific healing session, my role is to locate the aspect of you that is ready to mature.
We don’t cut it out. We don’t shame it. We don’t “fix” it.
Instead, we:
bring healing energy to that specific part
help it understand you are safe now, things have changed
let it finally receive the power and healing you’ve already earned
guide it into its new role in your life
And this is where everything changes with so much more ease than you thought possible!
Imagine a part of you that has been living in 1998 finally realizing, “Oh… we’re not there anymore?”
Yes. It’s that profound and that simple.
When this aspect matures, people often report:
the end of self-sabotage
sudden clarity and forward movement
less emotional looping
more confidence and personal power
relief that feels immediate and unmistakable
the sense of finally being “caught up” with themselves
This is the moment your healing lands.
This is the moment your life begins to change in real time.
