At Lighting the Way, our mission is to guide individuals towards healthier ways of processing emotions, ensuring they don't linger internally in a harmful manner. We recognize the profound pain that often accompanies life's losses and the cumulative impact of unprocessed emotions. These emotions can unknowingly guide our present-day reactions and decisions. Add to that the flawed coping advice we've been given, the pressure inside builds and we feel like we just might explode. Through subconscious clearing and education on emotional release, we help you embrace the life and relationships you've always desired.

When you're going through a tough time, friends and family might chip in with their two cents on how you should handle things. While they mean well, they're saying the usual myths about getting through the rough emotional times. It’s because these have been passed down from earlier generations, it’s what we know, it’s what is familiar.
Just give it time – “as if time magically erases pain”
Keep busy – “bury your pain”
Don't feel bad – “get a hold of yourself”
Replace the loss – “go get a new dog, friend, spouse”
Grieve alone – “isolate with your feelings”
Be strong for others – “put your own feelings aside for others”
Emotions, especially the painful ones can feel huge, overwhelming and never-ending. It’s natural to want to escape the pain. Seek support and lean on others during this time. There’s strength in that.
