Let Your True Self Shine: How to Transform Darkness into Light in 222 Hours

By Nathalie Johnson

If you’ve ever lost sight of your dreams and hopes, you’re not alone.

Nathalie Johnson suffered through unthinkable trauma as a child before being forced into an impossible situation as a young bride, but in this spiritual guidebook her life story becomes a message of hope.

At one low point, Nathalie descended into a darkness she thought she would never emerge from. Then she began to dream of angels, and everything changed. These vivid, peaceful dreams left her marveling when she awoke. Each subsequent dream continued where the previous left off with an ever-expanding cast of angels and celestial beings. The dreams washed over her with overpowering feeling of love, warmth, belonging, and acceptance. The experience was indescribable, and working through it opened her soul to realize what she is meant to do: work with angels.

In Let Your True Self Shine, the author reveals what she’s learned by interacting with angels, offering a 222-hour plan broken into nine days of inspiration, exercises, and attainable goals for finding your way through the darkness and into the light.

PRAISE FROM NATHALIE’S CLIENTS

Nathalie is an amazing intuitive in her readings, going straight to the core of the essence of the person. My reading with her was very accurate, detailing particular aspects of myself that no one else knew anything about. I felt like I was being held in the arms of an angel during my reading. I highly recommend Nathalie. Her intuitive abilities offered me insight into situations occurring in my life. I felt loved and supported throughout my entire reading with Nathalie.—Angel Muehlenkamp

Nathalie nails it! She has an amazing knack to come to true source and obtain very accurate, relevant, and useful material for spiritual growth and edification. She has the perfect blend of training combined with natural ability.—Steven Alexander, MD

I was blessed to have crossed paths with Nathalie. She’s an individual with many gifts, a sentient individual who exudes light within her presence. I also had the opportunity to do a past-life regression with her. She guided me through the steps that took me back in time to help me understand who I am today and what I am to become tomorrow. The experience was gentle, sage, meditative, and highly introspective. The entire experience with Nathalie was very positive and allowed me to build on further journeys to help uncover and understand my journey in today’s life. I’d highly recommend the experience for anyone seeking who, what, and why life is what it is. I look forward to our next meeting and continued friendship!—Anwar Sumar

How Nathalie Can Help You Continue Your Journey to Light

INTRODUCTION

My prayer is for you to read this story through the eyes of compassion rather than judgment and see that miracles happen every day, even when you are not consciously aware.

I was sitting across the water in a place near our campsite when a man in his late thirties approached me and said he didn’t believe in a power greater than ours. I nodded in surprise, not in agreement.

He explained that his relationship was turning upside down and that his daughter was addicted to drugs. On top of that, his family was about to lose the house they were living in.

He was lacking faith, and he was unfulfilled.

As I had reconciled with my past hurts, I shared with him the power of integrating faith and hope by acting effectively to solve the problem and not just the symptoms of the problem. We must believe that we are on an evolutionary process where problems are temporary and an opportunity for growth. As I shared more about my life, he felt more at ease, eager to listen and compelled to open his heart.

He then asked, Can I learn from your mistakes? How can I help my daughter and live a life of purpose?

I was happy to help.

Source, God, the universe is living through you, with you and for you, I told him. You are not alone!

Once our conversation reached the point of reflection, where his soul was in alignment with a state of connection to the love of God and his mind focused past his failures, he genuinely smiled and said, I feel like I have known you, like I’ve met you before.

I said, Yes, our souls were meant to connect at this moment, so I can be of service and help you regain trust and faith that everything happens for a reason.

You should write a book, he said.

He was not the first person to tell me that I should write a book, so I followed my heart and let God, the source, the universe, and the angels work through me and guide me as I wrote this book.

I share my journey up until this moment because I no longer let the ego shame me for my past; therefore, I am detached from it and no longer feel identified with it.

This book has three parts.

Part I is my personal journey, Part II details how to transform darkness into light in 222 hours broken out into nine days, and Part III has valuable information about nourishment for the physical body, mind, and spirit.

We all come into being on this planet with little to no instruction on how to live life to its fullest, how to make the least mistakes to avoid the suffering, and resistant to change.

As we grow old, we all acquire different skills and wisdom based on our experiences; such experience can be biased, shaping our worldview differently from others’. Whatever experiences you have gone through, there is so much more to learn and discover. Transforming darkness into light is a unique process, where the conflicts dissipate as you acknowledge the power within you and live a purposeful life connected to a loving universe where everything is possible.

Part I includes stories from a difficult childhood, which resulted in a toxic adult relationship, and then my embarking on a self-healing journey after a near-death experience and encouragement from a doctor that my life wasn’t over.

Part II includes practical yet powerful tools to be applied with discipline in the course of nine days that will transform your whole being in the following ways: connecting with God’s messengers—the angels; recognizing the ego; shifting your perception from how you have been conditioned from the past; practicing forgiveness; manifestation; loving yourself just as you are; raising your personal frequency; mediation; living in your gift; and so much more.

Part III offers wisdom on becoming a smart shopper by explaining nutritional labels, different diets, traditional medicine, and more.

In conclusion, taking responsibility of your being and becoming aware of ways to expand and grow with courage can take you to unimaginable places. Are you ready to begin your journey to let your true self shine?

You will undertake a journey because you’re

not at home in this world.

And you will search for your home whether

you realize where it is or not.

If you believe it is outside you, the search will be futile, for you

will be seeking it where it is not.

You do not remember how to look within, for you do

not believe your home is there.

Yet the Holy Spirit remembers it for you, and he will guide you to your

home because that is his mission.

As he fulfills his mission, he will teach you yours,

for your mission is the same as his.

By guiding your brothers home, you are but following him.

My Personal Journey

A DIFFICULT START

A%20difficult%20start.jpg

And there I am, still in the womb, still forming into a little baby girl, screaming in pain, though unheard, because someone is kicking me. Who hates me so much that he wants to hurt me, that he wants me dead? Sucking on my thumb, I beg the pain to stop. Before the kicking started, I was stretching and beginning to extend my arms and legs. I hear Mom. Wait, she is touching her belly and me. Oh, no. What can be going on that makes my mother throw up? Is she upset? Did I do something wrong? I hear fighting. She is running for her life. Then the commotion seems to stop, and I am in a state of calmness. My mom is touching her belly again and eating. I can’t wait to be in her arms and tell her how much I love her.

Time passes, and I notice I am getting bigger and bigger and flipping upside down. I want out! I want out! The doctor gives me a slap, and I start to cry, but then my mom takes me in her arms. Mom, thank you for bringing me into this world, I say with a smile. Of course, I can’t speak words. Still, I know my mom understands what I am saying. I still wonder who was kicking me, wanting me gone and making my mom sick.

About ten years earlier and on the other side of the world, another woman with a big heart was expecting a very special child. This mother-to-be loved God with all her heart and devoted time to pray each day. Her compassion touched those in need. One night she had a powerful dream. In the dream someone told her she was going to have a very special boy, and she should name him Zoroaster, like the spiritual leader and ethical philosopher. In Tehran, Iran, at eight in the morning on a month in autumn, this special boy was born.

Zoroaster was the oldest of four kids who liked to go see his grandparents in the village where they lived. He felt a connection to Mother Earth, mountains, and nature. Whenever he saw elderly people carrying heavy bags or any other tasks that might require extra strength, he was there to help them. His favorite fruit was bananas. Since they didn’t grow in Iran, they were a very rare, delicious treat.

In October 1980, Iraq invaded Iran. A war started, which was soon followed by a long history of border disputes. Iraq wanted to replace Iran as the dominant state on the Persian Gulf, an important channel for both states’ oil exports. Dictator Saddam Hussein claimed the reason for the invasion was a territorial dispute. The war consequently took many lives, including those of children and women, and it created traumatic memories for those who survived. The tactics used during this war were compared to those of World War I, including deliberate attacks targeting Iranian civilians with weapons of mass destruction and the extensive use of chemical weapons along with bombs.

Zoroaster’s mother still recalls the missile strikes targeting Iranian people in Tehran, the city where her whole family lived, and people trapped in collapsed buildings. Fleeing refugees like Zoroaster and his family survived, many of them migrating to Canada.

But at that time, I was yet to be born, and I had no idea my path might one day cross with the path of that special boy. It wasn’t until years after my own birth, across the
