Recently, I read and
reviewed the book Energy of Love from Susan J Witt
which I really liked (check my review on this link).
I felt immediately that
this was not just one of the self-help books. So, I became
curious to know the
author Susan J. Witt better. That’s why I asked you if you
wanted to
participate in a new Author in the picture blogpost. Luckily you said yes.
So,
here are the questions.
The Questions
Who is Susan J Witt?
My story is not dramatic, and I did not have a near death experience that
created a
great awakening for me, but instead my story is much like what others
go through
as life happens to them.
At the age of 16 years old I became a Christian and proclaimed Jesus
Christ as my
Lord and Saviour. I later married and devoted my life to raising
two beautiful children.
We raised our children as Lutheran and for 16 years I
was committed to being
the best mom possible.
It all started to fall apart when my youngest received his driver’s
license.
It happened over night that I was no longer
needed as a mother. This took me
like a storm and left a big hole in my heart.
I did not know who Susan was anymore
and after 16 years I had to find myself.
After a few years of wallowing in these thoughts my life took a drastic down-turn
of depression and self-hate. I started to believe I was a horrible person, and my
marriage was almost over. One day my husband introduced me to Finerminds
by
Brian Johnson.
This was a daily email subscription of self-empowered material
and my first
exposure to the power of our thoughts. Finerminds introduced me to
an array of
books on self-help and that’s when it turned into years of being
consumed by
learning all areas of self-help and self-empowerment. During this 5-year
period I learned Yoga, Meditation, Law of Attraction, many areas of healing
energy, crystal energy, oracle card readings, and I became a Reiki Master.
All
of this brought me out of depression and gave me self-empowerment
to make
changes, but it did not make me a happy person. My life was
so absorbed in
learning that it took over my life completely.
One day in April 2014 everything changed. I was doing what I always did
at that time, which was reading more material on my computer, when suddenly
a
very loud interruptive voice said to me, “SELF-LOVE”. With these simple
two
words I was downloaded with a knowledge and knowing that Self-Love
was the true
key to happiness. Suddenly I just knew that all the information
for years that
I was consuming was truly meant for a greater purpose and
that God finally gave
me the answer of Self-Love AND my life mission!
It was easy for me to know what I needed to do because I had years of
learning
and experience in self-help. God made it easy for me to link all
of it to
Self-Love. I was going to help millions of people realize this too
by writing
an actual how-to program to self-empower and self-love.
But what others have NEVER
done in all that I have read, I was going to
tell it quite differently. I was
going to plant the seed of LOVE and show
people how Love is connected to all
self-help, Law of Attraction,
Quantum theories, and most importantly how Love
is who we
really are at the deepest spiritual level!
A year later I created a book called Energy of Love, A How-To Program
to
Self-Empowerment and Self-Love. This was not just a program but a
complete
learning experience from the ground up. Non-religious and extremely
easy to
read and understand for all levels. The first half of Energy of Love is
the learning,
and the 2nd half is the how-to. The detail and flow of how
Energy of
Love connects the dots to link God with Science is mastery.
I can say this
because it was God that sat with me during every second
of writing this
profound book. Energy of Love was changed a few times
as I added and edited it
to make it even more complete and it was
published in March of 2018.
In 2020 another life changing event happened to me. I received the 2020
Next Generation Indie Book Award. This is proclaimed the largest international
book
award program for indie writers and Energy of Love place as a finalist in
the Self-Help Category!
Today I have a large social media following on all platforms, and I use
this to
continue daily to spread the message of Self-Love and my book Energy of
Love.
I have started another book that
is presently unnamed. This book will be the
next level of human after Self-Love
and that is learning to live in the energy
and consciousness of Unconditional
Love. God speaks to me when I write,
and this book is not ready for humanity
right now because there is so much
healing to be done first and especially
cultivating Self-Love. I have no timeframe
for this new book but write as God
gives me the messages and know it will be
ready when the human is ready.
Can you say something more about your book(s)?
Energy of Love is available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble website.
It is
offered in Paperback, Hardcover and E-book. It is important to point out
that
Energy of Love is a life changing program that has many thought
provoking
concepts and ideas in every chapter. This book is not meant to be
read in a
weekend, but to be consumed slowly and let each piece sit with
your own beliefs.
As I explain in the book the power of change can only
come from YOU. I give
several website references throughout the
chapters so you can stop and do your
own research. Energy of Love
plants seeds for you to research. I can give you
several examples,
but it is your own research that gains the strength and
empowerment
to make real life changes!
On your site is mentioned that you are a Reiki
Master.
Can you tell us what Reiki is? And how it can help people?
Reiki is an immensely powerful healing modality that I channel from the
Divine Source of Love. I believe Reiki is one of the most powerful sources of
“hands-on”
healing because it does not come from me, but from God.
The healing energy is channelled
through my hands, to the person receiving
the healing. I can focus on a specific
emotional or physical issue, or we can
simply ask for peace to be delivered in
the session. Reiki is for everyone
and a beautiful peaceful healing energy. I
have seen profound healing
in the years of administering Reiki! Distance Reiki is a way you can channel
the
healing to someone in another location, and I have found this to be just
as beneficial
as if the person were in the same room!
For first-time clients
I always give a free 20-minute Distance Reiki
session so they can
receive a taste of its power.
Do you do other things besides writing and
Reiki?
I also do Oracle card readings. This is not like Tarot readings, but it
is
messages coming in from your Angels or any kind of spiritual being.
Oracle
readings help people to communicate with the heavenly beings
that are assigned
to help us in this human life. The readings can be very
general, or you can ask
for specific guidance on an issue. I want to make
it clear that my readings do
not for-tell the future. The future changes
every second based on your thoughts
and feelings, so the reading can help
you to see the direction you are going,
and it is especially helpful
to have awareness of your own energy at the moment
of the reading.
Where do you get your inspiration from?
My inspiration comes from an inner knowing when I get into a place of
quiet and
peace. We all have gifts that surface when we can quiet the mind. My
gift is Clair
cognizance, which is “the ability of a person to acquire psychic
knowledge
without knowing how or why they knew it”. I sometimes get revelations
or downloads of
information when I write, read, (like the day in April 2014),
or even driving. Mostly
when I start writing the words start flowing and the
knowledge and power come
out of me.
I have a daily meditation practice that I am very faithful to and more
than likely addicted! I have often thought about teaching meditation
because it
is so important to the mind, body, and soul.
I offer a free 32-minute
meditation on my website so please check that out!
Another daily practice is staying away from ego-based thoughts
(separation and fear).
I constantly monitor my thoughts through self-awareness
so I can work on being in
the highest level of consciousness. My goals are to
try and always stay in the energy of love.
On my social media I love sharing other peoples’ work and their spiritual
guidance.
Much of what I share on social media are who I follow and get my
spiritual
guidance and inspiration.
Do you plan things in life or is it more going
with the flow?
I feel it is important to do both. By knowing and living in your authentic
truth,
you can set the correct frequency and vibrational match to the future of
your dreams. Going with the flow is getting out of your own way and
allowing
the Universe to bring you naturally what you desire.
I always say that even if
you do not know what you desire just focus on
the energy of love, because then
you cannot get it wrong!
What is your most important aim in life?
Helping millions to awaken to self-love and cultivate living a life of
being your authentic self. This mission will be with me until I leave this Earth!
Do you sport or do you follow a health routine?
Over the years I have been mindful about my body, and I practice a diet
that is healthy and works for me. From my spiritual perspective it is
important
to eat and exercise according to your own physical needs.
This is very personal
and specific for everyone, so I do not feel it is
right or important to give my
routine. Your body speaks to you every second,
so listen to what it is telling
you!
I like to listen to music all day. Do you
prefer silence or music and which one?
I feel music can be so inspirational and it can take you into just about
any
kind of mood. I listen to music daily, and I also do several guided
meditations
throughout the day. There
are many times when I crave silence too!
I always end with the same question:
What are
your wishes / dreams for you and the world?
Well, if I could answer that honestly most people would not understand
the language. To keep it simple, I dream of living in a higher dimensional
world where the consciousness level is LOVE or above. A world that has no
conditions on love, and we can just give love freely. We do not judge and
that
our love comes without attachments and expectations.
Ah, that is my next book….
