Meet Amalia Camateros

We recently connected with Amalia Camateros and have shared our conversation below.

Amalia, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?

In order to gain my sanity from a very large extended “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” family, that communicated through shouting, and revelry along with very difficult family dynamics. I would slink and wander away from the raucousness into nature, into the land of quiet to rest my mind, feel the beauty, trace the leaves with my fingers, press on the emerald green moss under my fingers. speak to the plants, flowers and trees. Make pretend floral perfumes and medicine with grass and soil and flowers and administer the potions to my family members to help them relax and feel better all round.

I am a Nature Girl and Mother Earth is my home, where I could commune and be heard, be myself and not feel judged or overlooked. I fell into love with nature and pondered about what Nature would be telling me about the nature of life, giving me solutions to my ‘problems.’

Once on an outing to the beach, while my many cousins were hooting and shouting and splashing one another, I stood a little ways away and asked myself, “I wonder what the ocean is thinking, who or what is the ocean really?” I took a deep breath to sink to the bottom on the sand to see if I could listen more intently to what the ocean is saying, this is where I felt comfortable, in the fathomless silence and presence of nothingness and everythingness, into the place of pure being.

Another teaching experience was with the see saw where I would steal away from my home and run to the nearby part to study the see saw. I stood at the center of the apex and balance the two sides of the see saw on either side of me….Getting the wooden plank into the stillness at the center evenly on both sides took a lot of focus and energy and it was there where I had my first ‘samadhi’ (enlightened) clear mind experience, where once I finally after weeks and months of practice got the plank into stillness, I experienced my greater untainted pure self, where I disappeared and became pure light. It was the most thrilling experience to this day.

I learned the art of balance where like a scientific experiment I found the code of equilibrium within myself……fortunately as my family was chaotic, uncomfortable and with a manic depressive mother that swung up and down with her energy, I was able to gain some semblance of inner balance within my deeper nature of self.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

I guide people to return to their inner alignment, their inner peace, to get grounded, out of their busy heads and into their calm bodies. I take people on the land on the red rocks of majestic Sedona, AZ for a deeper dive experience of self with Mother Earth, to feel the stability, security and safety within themselves. I have my own healing business called Earth Spirit Wisdom Healing (www.earthspiritwisdom.com) and love to Gove mini personal, couple and family retreats that bring a more loving connection with self, each other and within their lives.

In my practice I offer a plethora of healing modalities including, Life Shift Coaching, Emotional Core Healing, Conflict Resolution, Shamanic Healing Land Journeys, Chakra Balancing, Energy Healing, Breath Work, Foot Reflexology and group dance experiences to increase confidence and release blocked energy.

It is extremely rewarding to hear of my clients changes they have made towards a more fulfilling life, with more ease, gratitude, less worry and stress and improved relationships and most importantly the relationship they experience with themselves.

I have a healing course called STRONGER THAN EVER that teaches people how to ground their energy, calm their minds and center themselves in their busy daily schedules by grounding their mind and connecting with Mother Earth to bring about stability and inner security: https://earthspiritwisdom.com/course-stronger-than-ever

My latest book Transmissions of Earth Spirit Wisdom also teaches readers to expand their perceptions and outlook along their growth path and to ground in with Earth, connect to their greater Spirit and to center themselves in their hearts of wisdom. Giving them something to learn daily or when they read each chapter of 2-3 pages long that brings about food for thought and healing teachings.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

Being carefree outdoors and delving into the beauty and restfulness of Mother Nature- BEAUTY & POISE OF NATURE to listen to what Mother Earth is teaching us at all times, if we could only ‘stop and look, listen and feel ‘ with our greater eyes, ears and heart.

The See Saw teachings of balance- FINDING THE INNER FOCUS TO BALANCE & STILLNESS WITHIN, to witness and know that each side of the duality in life whether positive or negative, light or dark, abundance or lack each are as valid and divine as each other and if we can stand at the center we can embrace all of it in the experience of oneness.

Feeling unloved and unimportant and choosing to love anyway, to live through the lovingness of the heart to make a bridge, in MAKING A CONNECTION WITH OTHERS and that we each go through the trials and tribulations of life together.

Advice:
Spend time pondering in nature, let her teach you, get out of your thinking and listen to the wisdom of her language and how she shows you to be within yourself. Look at the details of her beauty, ask questions and allow the answers to come through a wisp of wind, a rustle of leaves, a bird flying by.

Become aware of areas within you that are unbalanced ie: where you may be giving too much of yourself and over expending your energy. More self care and rest to balance the doing and balancing it with being. Take care of yourself, be honest with what you can or are willing to do or give and honor your inner “NO” without judging yourself for your truth.

To be kind to yourself by letting go the criticism of yourself and being more gentle with yourself and others.

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?

I have to say it is myself, my inner wisdom from deep within, my soul that has helped me overcome challengers, which has been developed with Mother Earth and how she so effortlessly teaches us how to live our lives. Put our roots in the ground and connect with her, which enables us to stand tall and strong in our trunks, which then produces strong and expanded branches, to hold the fruit of our lives, the gifts of our lives in plentitude of which we can share with others.

the teacher, the inner wisdom has been my guide and I love to inspire others to do the same……go within!
