THE AFTERSHOCK

An aftershock is the tremor that follows a major earthquake. Sometimes, life has aftershocks too, those deep emotional waves that come after something profound has changed us.

For me, that aftershock was the passing of my mother, Inés, on September 1st.
After years of illness, watching such a vibrant and active woman slowly leave this physical life was one of the most difficult experiences I have ever faced. It taught me about surrender, faith, compassion, and the sacredness of simply being present.

My relationship with my mother was not always easy or as close as I wished it had been. There were hurts, regrets, misunderstandings, and things left unsaid. But as her consciousness faded, something beautiful opened within me: a door to forgiveness.

Forgiveness from me to her.
Forgiveness from her to me.
And forgiveness for all the pain that may have been carried throughout her life.

Through Pranic Healing and prayer, I was grateful to accompany her during her final days, to help release resentment, anger, and attachments, and to lovingly ask our ancestors, angels, and archangels to guide her home.

And she left peacefully.

Mom, I honor your life, your struggles, your lessons, and the love we shared.
I release you with love and gratitude.
May you be free.
May you be at peace.
May you be surrounded by light.
Thank you for being my mother.
Your journey home has begun.
