Here Is Where Your Healing Begins

Martha has been fantastic. She is warm, trustworthy, supportive, and a very skilled practitioner. I recommend her highly. Her "Heal the Healer" program is necessary for all therapists looking to release, restore, and renew themselves.

Some masters draw us in with their presence, while others resonate with us through their words, compelling us to seek more. Then there are the rare few who act as mirrors, reflecting our true selves—each unique in their power to awaken us from our slumber. Yet, there exists a fourth kind: masters who are windows, revealing the vibrant spectrum of our potential and innate magnificence. These masters not only show us who we are but also illuminate who we were born to be. They recognize our true essence and know how to guide us toward it. In just one session with Ma Shakti, she presents a vision of yourself that you may hesitate to envision, as it feels like stepping into a fairytale.

Ma Shakti possesses a range of tools that she wields with remarkable finesse, adeptly knowing when to employ each one or when to set it aside. As I reflect on what I have learned from her, the most significant lesson for me is Awareness. This elusive quality, the potent essence she has distilled from every master she has loved, lived with, listened to, and learned from, is a priceless gem that yogis spend lifetimes striving to attain through penance. Yet, she offers it to you effortlessly over a cup of tea, accompanied by a tender smile that brightens her benevolent eyes and a few expressive gestures. You find yourself pondering how you got so lucky—until she snaps her fingers, jolting you from your reverie, and reminds you with a sharp voice, "You need to be practical, Navani!"

Ma Shakti is not only an advocate for femininity or women's rights, as many may perceive. She champions the essence of feminineness, recognizing it as the fragrance of the innermost sanctum within both men and women, seekers and non-seekers alike. She rightfully channels its expression and preservation.

My name is Manuel Gonzalez, and I want to share the incredible progress I've made with Shakti's help and the Rapid Eye process in overcoming a period of depression that arose from a separation. 

Thanks to Shakti's exceptional healing abilities and her dedicated efforts, which included sessions lasting up to three hours, along with the Rapid Eye process and my own commitment, I can confidently say that I have released my depression. 

I believe that anyone who embarks on this therapeutic journey with consistency and determination can transcend their traumas and start a path toward spiritual enlightenment. I am deeply grateful to Shakti for her love and dedication to her patients, and I hope she continues to help and inspire many more individuals on their healing journeys. 

~Manuel Gonzalez

Dear Shakti, being of light and love, I thank God for having met you as a friend and therapist; every session of Rapid Eye I shared with you was a wonderful journey to explore and recognize that happiness did not have to be searched for very far, as it was within me the whole time.

I must share my story because many people can benefit from it. I owe a great deal to Martha Ballesteros and Rapid Eye. If I had to highlight one key benefit of this therapy, it would be that I have found myself again; I feel free. I had no idea there was so much peace, power, and strength within me. At the age of 11, I was sexually abused. From what I can remember, I always lived in fear and felt a profound insecurity within myself. With my mother gone, there was no one to care for me. I drifted from school to school, and later from man to man, struggling with drugs and alcohol. Life was extremely difficult; I often wished I were dead. However, I had a child to care for, and friends encouraged me to seek help. I attended AA meetings, which were beneficial, but I still felt imprisoned within myself, burdened by fear.

Then I met Martha. Through her sessions, she helped me release my fear and negative emotions. The life skills classes she offered helped me understand my experiences. I realized that the abuse had distorted my perception of life and the choices I made. I chose men and experiences based on the feelings of an abused child, caught in a strange dynamic with men, life, and work. I was truly a prisoner of my unconscious memories.

From the start, the changes I experienced, both internally and externally, were profound. I committed myself to as many Rapid Eye sessions as possible. I went through all the sessions and worked with the Life Skills book. It felt like entering a new world. Martha is a truly wise woman; with her help, I even transformed my eating habits. I am no longer the needy person in my relationships, and I can now enjoy intimacy. Most importantly, I have a wonderful sense of being in my body and a renewed enthusiasm for life. I feel grateful for my life now and know I have the power to create anything I desire. Thank you, Martha, and may God bless you for the incredible help you provide to others.

 RET is an absolute miracle, and my therapist, Martha, is a miracle worker. For years, I have been working on myself, and still, there were some issues I just never seem to be able to move past because they were so deeply rooted. RET is so effective and easy, it almost seems too good to be true, but it's TRUE. My life has shifted 180 degrees in only a few months, thanks to Rapid Eye and Martha's intuitive instinct in assisting me to get to the true root of the issue and then release it once and for all. Thank you for giving me true freedom. With love and in deep gratitude, I bless you, Martha.

~Tracy R.

After years of searching and trying different healing techniques, I found RET to be very effective in helping me release and uncover deep emotional wounds. Martha is the best therapist and coach I have ever had. She is also an excellent massage therapist. I love her sense of humor. She is a great asset to the healing of this planet.

I met Martha previously to a very decisive time in my life, just entering the thirties in the middle of a crisis in my marriage and after being fired from my job as an attorney in a prestigious law firm. I know now that God always places things in front of us at the right time, and surely that was why Martha was there to help me find the strength and capacity to accept life as it is. That knowledge has allowed me to live my life with patience, love, tolerance, and great faith, virtues that I learned with her help, reside in me, and are for my enjoyment. More than a therapist, she has always been a comprehensive, tender, and warm human being for whom my difficulties have been important as a friend.

~CR Vaquero

Dear Shakti, I would like to say thank you. You have been a blessing in my life. I appreciate your integrity and clarity. God bless you!

~Don

 I write this testimonial with profound gratitude. When I first approached Martha Ballesteros, I was looking for relief from insomnia, depression, and anxiety. Instead, I discovered a highly professional and compassionate individual who guided me in releasing my negative thoughts and emotions, helping me to embrace and accept myself unconditionally. I had previously been very effective at sabotaging my own happiness. Today, I understand and act with the knowledge that I have the power to create a wonderful life for myself, recognizing that each of my thoughts, perceptions, and decisions shapes my reality. Thank you, Martha, for your invaluable teachings and support.
