Kavita Gifford

Jack Kornfield in the “Inner Art of Meditation” retells an African fable of the “soul’s song”. In this fable a mother sits under a tree until she is delivered the “soul’s song” for her unborn child. She teaches this song to her family and her community, and it is sung as the child enters the world. As the child grows, their “soul’s song” is sung to them when they get hurt, when they are challenged, when they do something wonderful, and when they are celebrated. Singing a “soul’s song” honours the profound unique magnificence of a person’s core essence, and if at any time he/she/they loses their way, causing harm to themselves or another, the community surrounds them to sing their “soul’s song” reminding them of the truth of who they really are. At the end when lying on their death bed, their “soul’s song” is sung to them one last time. 

Our radiant soul energy is ever present, through the busy rush of every day life, through the imbalances, through all the pain and sorrow. Your whole body system is designed for you to express and live your beautiful soul life. Helping others to remember their “soul’s song” and celebrate the glory of the soul is at the heart of Kavita’s work. She is deeply called to help inspire the fullness and radiance of anyone she has the honour of working with, for it is here in the soul’s essence where the template for health lies in every individual. In order to do this work she commits to:

To compassionately hold the space for transformation and transmutation

To be a mirror that reflects magnificence back at itself

To bring the best of her skills and knowledge to help call fullness and radiance back into being

To do her own self-care and shadow work, so that she too can be in her fullness and radiance

Offerings

These sessions are a co-creative process where you will work closely with Kavita to help you:

Remember that you are your own medicine

Bring balance back to imbalanced energies

Regulate your nervous system and improve vagal tone

Learn from challenging emotions

Activate your template for health

Identify and transmute limiting beliefs and habits

Discover your soul essence, path and purpose

Connect to your wild wisdom and untamed spirit

Learn practices to help you live a healthy, joyous, harmonious and empowered life.

Kavita will work intuitively through the session drawing upon a number of modalities in which she has been trained including energy medicine, shamanism, Tibetan Buddhism, psychotherapy, ecology, sound therapy and light language.

During a session Kavita will often receive an image and words offered from the client’s soul, something akin to your “soul’s song”. These images and words convey the essence of the clients unique and beautiful soul expression, or convey a message about the soul’s path or purpose.

Kavita is able to use AI to recreate the image she sees for clients upon request. She also uses the image, words and other intuitive information she receives during the session to create a series of verses to serve as a reminder of the client’s core essence, their challenges and what they might be called to manifest in this life.

She will create several images that attempt to replicate the imagery and feeling tone of her vision and will send those as low-resolution files. Once an image or images with resonance have been selected, Kavita will upscale the images to make them suitable for printing.

For an additional fee Kavita can do a reading related to your soul and elemental rhythms. This information can provide insight into your natural gifts to lean your expansion into, but also identify your gifts of challenge that will require your special attention as you traverse your soul’s path. Kavita can also provide guidance on how to nourish and support yourself to help you come into alignment with your soul’s purpose.
