However, my time with the teacher was not wasted. The piano lessons taught me how to plant my fingers correctly on the keyboard, and I have benefited greatly from that. In my green youth, I played in a number of garage bands in Funen, and from the 90s I have performed professionally as a singer and keyboard player in various bands. In 2015 I jumped out as a soloist.

It was a good friend and musical collaborator who recommended that I contact Sheala. He introduced her as the right person to consult if you, like me, were looking for honest, competent and unbiased metaphysical input on a number of personal and career issues. I have been consulting Sheala for 4 years now and the results speak for themselves. She brings up the right issues at the right time and place.

When I started the program with Sheala, I was recovering from pneumonia, which had caused me to lose my voice for several months. In addition to the purely physical, I sensed that there was also something more intangible in the picture. Something I needed to get a grip on in order to move on with my life.

The music business is tough. There are many good musicians, singers and songwriters who, for various reasons, sometimes find it difficult to break into the business side of the industry. For a couple of years leading up to the pneumonia, I found myself in such a career deadlock, and I dealt with it in a not very constructive way.

Among other things, I developed a massive overconsumption of alcohol. Red wine is associated with coziness, style and class, and it reduces anxiety and stress. Just the thing for me. I didn't drink heavily - 3-6 units a day. Although some would call this amount "Dane-normal" and completely harmless, in my case it turbo-charged the mental rollercoaster ride I had consciously or unconsciously embarked on.

Sheala's treatment approach is individually designed for each client. If you are the type of person who constantly looks at the clock and believes that busyness bordering on stress-busyness is an ideal basic state for a human being, you will feel a little challenged by Sheala. At the very least, you have to get used to the idea of sitting back, letting a healing session work in your body and giving in to the natural fatigue that follows in its wake. It's not easy for everyone.

I had psychic abilities as a child and am quite laid-back by nature, so Sheala's approach did not challenge my tolerance. From Day One, I have been open and positive about tuning into a metaphysical approach to things. It's been like coming home.

Being able to "see" things in people helped me in my childhood. I grew up in problematic family circumstances, in a home where a domineering father figure towered at the head of the table.

In this environment, it was nice to be able to beam up into a helicopter perspective and see everything from above. Without this ability, I would have had a harder time getting through childhood unscathed.

However, when I was a teenager in the mid-1970s, a latent anxiety disorder erupted in me like a bolt from the blue, and for many years to come, it inhibited me in my development.

When I researched what treatments people with anxiety were offered in the 70s healthcare system, I realized that it was not something I wanted to subject myself to

myself or my worst enemy. Instead, I chose to defy the fear and live with the symptoms while doing the things I wanted to do.

At 19, I went to college, traveled around Europe and moved from Odense to Copenhagen, where I worked for a couple of years in librarianship, after which I took a single-subject course at HF. The anxiety gradually subsided, but my body kept telling me that there were still some small remnants left. I finally got rid of these residues through the healing sessions with Sheala. Something I would hardly have thought possible in the late 70s.

As I experience Sheala, as a clairvoyant she is immediately able to "see" a person's potential and true nature, free from masks, conventional filters and social considerations. She is not only clairvoyant, but also an exceptionally sweet and empathetic person.

Sheala could relate in a non-judgmental way to the not always straightforward or politically correct choices I had made throughout my life. The same applied to the way I had viewed and treated myself and my fellow human beings.

Since a side effect of the pneumonia was that I lost my voice, a good portion of my therapy sessions immediately before meeting Sheala consisted of shorter or longer periods of silence. In total, I had two whole months where I was not allowed to use my voice at all. As a convalescent, I lived an isolated monk-like life and had actually taken a vow of silence. It was a special experience.

When you get sick here in Denmark and have special treatment needs, like those of a singer, it is imperative that you also have the mental energy to take the initiative to request the necessary referrals from your own doctor in order to involve the right specialists in your treatment. Fortunately, I did!

I called a friend at Odense Theater and asked: "Isn't there something about having a super talented ear/nose/throat specialist that you use when your actors and singers have voice problems?" In other words, since I couldn't and wasn't allowed to speak at the time, I got out a megaphone, turned it up to full volume and whispered through it. And that

Worked! My friend at the theater heard my whisper and gave me the contact info for the theater's ear/nose/throat specialist, who I was lucky enough to get an appointment with immediately.

She found that I had a nodule on one vocal cord. This was unusual because benign vocal nodules usually occur in pairs. She didn't mention it directly, but cancer was suspected. As I, as a singer, could risk permanent damage from having a tissue sample taken from the affected vocal cord for microscopy, we agreed to wait and see for two weeks. A nerve-wracking period, which fortunately ended with me being cleared of cancer.

I then went for rehabilitation with a voice coach and was given some vocal exercises that enabled me to safely start singing again. My voice returned to normal pretty quickly, but for a long time I only had 50% of its original capacity. It came back slowly and gradually, and today I have fully recovered my vocal splendor.

Both physically and mentally, I have moved a lot from where I was when I started at Sheala. I have come to terms with being the person I am. I naturally rest in myself and no longer perceive life's small and big challenges as personal insults and potential sources of disappointment and defeat. I've learned to face the fact that some things are just the way they are and that's okay.

An important part of being a musician is booking gigs for me and the band by phone. This routine can periodically cause more frustration than many others. Metaphorically speaking, if I ring a doorbell that doesn't work and it keeps not working, I've learned to let it go and look for new ways instead of exploding in impotent anger and blaming myself for the faulty bell.

As I said, I had the ability to "see" as a child - an ability I both needed and enjoyed. Unfortunately, it was lost during puberty. Therefore, in addition to tackling my current personal and career challenges, I was interested in finding a new way into the spiritual dimension with Sheala.

To do something outwardly and do it with conviction, you have to feel at home within yourself, and I wasn't quite at home within myself. But the fact that I was still recovering from pneumonia meant that I had plenty of time to reflect on what had happened in my life leading up to the illness and what I wanted to do when I recovered.

At our first meeting, Sheala made an intuitive freehand drawing outlining my situation. She said: "It doesn't look good. You have health problems and they will probably last for the next three or four years." Fortunately, as she continued drawing, a shortcut revealed itself, and if I followed it, I could steer clear of the looming health problems.

The shortcut entailed a lifestyle change, and I was completely okay with that. After the pneumonia, my batteries were so low anyway that I was happy and grateful to have the opportunity to make a fresh start.

Sheala put me on a series of diets, and the change in diet greatly increased my receptivity to new impulses and softened my view of myself and the world. No lifestyle change can be implemented without transitional issues, but in my case the timing was perfect. I was highly motivated and had been given a unique opportunity to get back on track and in touch with myself, and I took it.

Sheala could see that I was struggling with a number of issues in my general way of acting and approaching my life, and she focused on resolving them in the healing process. She is an empathetic and considerate person, but at the same time she clearly communicates the things that need to be said out loud.

'It takes two to tango'. I have only been able to actively implement the positive changes that the healing has paved the way for in my life thanks to the good, trusting and focused collaboration with Sheala. A significant part of the reason why I have had the optimal effect of the healing is that the agreements Sheala and I made during the process have been respected. It's important that you as a client take responsibility for making your goals a reality.

On the career front, my main goal right now is to increase public awareness of my work as a singer and songwriter. This will be done through album releases and concerts across the country. My releases are available on all streaming/download platforms.
