About Karen Rose | Me and Spirit

My Story

I was born in the town of Spirit River in Alberta, Canada, near the Peace River. The names of those places kind of make you wonder, right?

I've been able to see spirits and ghosts from a very young age. My dad died when I was eleven years old. I could feel his energy around me but I didn't see his ghost until I was sixteen. I saw him sitting in the hanging chair in my bedroom. I didn't tell anyone because I didn't think anyone would believe me.

Later, when I was a visual arts teacher in a private international school in Bangkok, Thailand, I took a trip to India with a friend. One afternoon when we were having a nap in our hotel room in Calcutta, I woke with abruptly to see three ghostly figures bending over my friend. I screamed! My friend woke up suddenly. I was frightened but my friend was jealous that I could see ghosts. While living and working overseas, I had a multitude of spiritual experiences that at times, overwhelmed me, until I began to learn about and understand energy by taking Reiki training.

I took my Reiki Level 1 & 2 training in 1997 just before I left Thailand to work at an American school in Brasilia, Brazil. My Reiki master was an Amazonian medicine woman who was from Brazil. Synchronicity, right? When I arrived in Brazil, my awareness about energy intensified. I could feel, hear, see and sense so much psychic energy, it was overwhelming. During my second year in Brazil, there was a ghost in the house I lived in that woke me up once. It was spooning with me in my bed! I physically felt its presence. I never talked about it until my mom came to visit me there and told me it happened to her. She was really frightened that something like that had happened to her. My response? Oh that guy. I told her that he did that with me and I kicked him out of my bed. We laughed about it then. When the school wanted to extend my two year contract in Brazil, I'd had enough of those intense psychic experiences, and departed.

After I left Brazil, I worked in Switzerland as a ski instructor and guide in the Swiss Alps. Before I moved there, I woke up one night while I was living in Brazil in the house where I'd met that weird spooning ghost, and saw that I was in a strange room with large windows that overlooked some enormous mountains backed by a pink sky. When I moved to Switzerland, the room I stayed in was that exact same room I had previously woken up in. The mountains were right outside the window just as I'd seen in that vision. The mountains? The Dents du Midi, a three kilometre long mountain range in the Swiss Alps.

Although these interesting and intriguing things occurred in my life, I continued working as a visual arts teacher. Even though I totally loved my teaching career, I left my teaching job when I gave birth to my son in 2004. My choice was clear. I chose my family over my career. That's when life became really interesting. In addition to the intense love I experience for both my husband and my son, my psychic powers increased incredibly. I met people and instantly realized that I knew them from other lives. Past life memories flooded my mind constantly. Many of those memories were disturbing. I could see energies I'd never witnessed before, especially at night. I told my husband that something weird was going and added to enjoy the experience with me.

In 2013, my husband died suddenly in a car accident on his way to work at 4:00 AM. Every day for two weeks I woke up at 4:00 AM. I saw his spirit with me every day until his service. His sister's husband and I delivered the eulogy at his service. After the service was over, there was a storm. When the storm suddenly ended, the sky turned orange. I saw the image of an angel in the sky and without a doubt, I knew that was him leaving this earth plane of existence. I never saw his energy again but he does still talk to me from the Other Side. Before my husband died, I had received messages that someone I knew was going to die, but never in a million years did I ever think that my husband would die at such a young age, at 47.

I used to reject the psychic part of me until I began learning about energy healing and began to embrace it. I started an energy healing business after I helped an injured race horse off the track heal her leg. People found out what I could do and they paid me to help their horses heal. After working with people's pets, I began to receive spiritual messages for the pets' people so I started giving readings for people.

I began my psychic readings by delivering messages from pets to their owners. I was in my favourite metaphysical store one day and offered to give pet readings there. They said yes, and for a few years I gave pet readings at Magic Happens Metaphysical in Stony Plain, Alberta, Canada. After offering pet readings to pet owners, the pets began delivering messages for their humans and then, I started giving messages from the people's loved ones from the Other Side. I would see their loved ones standing behind the people at the readings. They would not go away until I delivered messages to their relative in the reading room we were in.

I had always wanted to have a past life regression hypnotherapy session. After having three past life regression hypnotherapy sessions with Chris Lee, I trained to become a Past Life Regression Hypnotherapist with Chris Lee and became a certified hypnotherapist in 2015. I am on the PastLifeRap.com Canadian Team.

While we're on this planet our lives are constantly full of unexpected experiences and supernatural surprises. Working with energy and Spirit always makes life more interesting, this connection can be extremely rewarding. To this day, I still see the energy of people who died but I no longer scream. Sometimes these energies give me a gift or just show me that they're present. Other times they contact me because they want help leaving the earth plane of existence. I will see or hear them in my mind. If or when they are ghosts, which is just stuck energy on this plane of existence, I help them cross over to the Other Side where their energy is meant to reside. I see them wave goodbye as they leave. These stuck energies only leave because they choose to leave. They are ready to move forward and they know I am here to help.

I would love to help you if you are struggling, frustrated, curious, want to connect with a loved one on the Other Side. When you are interested in understanding why events happen in your life the way they do and what you can do about shifting your focus and energy to create a better life. Spirit and I are always here to help you. I offer readings over the phone or by email in written psychic readings. Now with a written reading, my clients can refer to the notes they receive long after they have had their written psychic reading with me. I offer energy healing sessions in person in Bakersfield, CA, or in a distance session. I love to teach Usui Reiki energy healing courses. I offer them in person and online by video chat. I have been working with Reiki since 1997. Let's begin on working on you to help you create your best life ever! Send me an email and let's get started on creating the life you desire. There is so much to learn about the spiritual part of our existence while we are here being human on this planet.

In person sessions are available in Bakersfield, California in the USA.
