New Year’s is upon us and many of us reflect on accomplishments and experiences from the past year . I would like to share my thoughts and gratitude for  working with Brandy Nielson. I have tried many, many types of personal growth opportunities, however none compare to the positive and lasting effects of The Higher Self program. Brandy’s insights, excellent listening , and articulation of thought provoking questions helped me develop a deeper understanding and awareness of the blocks I had created over a lifetime . Once I made these connections I was able to choose a different way of being. With Brandy’s support I was able to shift into a different  experience that was calm and peaceful . 

I appreciated Brandy’s intuitive confidence,  that I would be able to become my best self by learning to   listen to my higher self. 

Brandy is trustworthy and passionate about helping people. As I reflect on my successes this past year I would definitely say that making a choice to work with Brandy has been the best investment I have ever made in myself. I feel the positive difference in my own confidence and ability to connect and communicate in relationships.  Choose to connect with Brandy ~ YOU are worth it.

I started my journey of spirituality and awareness when I retired 7 years ago. I needed a coach to help me become aware of who I am, and that's when I found Brandy. During the various sessions, Brandy helped me recognize that fear and doubt often creeps into my awareness. Through the re-wiring sessions, I am now aware of my emotions and can shift them into positive directives. It is not easy but Brandy gave me the courage to work on it everyday. I am a happier person now.My biggest breakthrough in on my first session. I was always searching for my Higher Self to connect with. Brandy said, "She is always there with you." That gave me so much comfort and now I can feel that safe and loving connection with my Higher Self.

The second breakthrough was about self love and receiving abundance in everything. I thought self love was a selfish thing, and abundance related to money. If I don't love myself, I will not have anything to give back to my world because I will be empty. Every day, throughout morning and night, I feel my heart receiving the love from the universe, friends and myself and I look for opportunities to give it back. I also learned abundance is not just money, it's so much more. My favourite mantra is "I am an open vessel ready to receive from the universe." I ask for abundance of health, love, appreciation, joy, curiousity and many more. I feel protected and it gives me a purpose to share it with my friends because it feels good.

My biggest success is awareness. Brandy's sessions taught me that I can choose how I feel. Now I tune into my feelings and understand whether they are limiting or liberating. Does it feel good or not. If is limiting and it doesn't make me feel good, I choose to ask my Higher Self and the universe to replace the negative thoughts and emotions with something positive and loving. This one thing alone has made me into a happier person.

Oh, one last thing. At the onset of these sessions, I was thinking it would be heavy, hard and unpleasant. It is a complete opposite! Every session I come through feeling lighter. I've got this because I know how to do it.

Let me start by saying how much I appreciate Brandy's warmth, kindness and understanding through our sessions together. I felt supported and understood at all times. There was no judgement from her at any time as I revealed my inner most thoughts. I was able to share my deepest, darkest thoughts and feelings and know that I would be safe with her, and that together, we would release all that no longer served me.

I chose micro-dosing out of desperation. I wanted something “big” to happen. I wanted to shake up my life. I had been trying for a very long time to decide whether or not to leave my marriage, which had been dysfunctional for decades. I was always in my head and stressing about making the decision. I had tried other forms of personal growth including regular counseling, EMDR, healers, mediums etc. All left me in the same place of indecision.

The medicine was new to me. Although Brandy explained it thoroughly, it was not until I experienced it for myself that I really understood the value. During our sessions I would have sudden insights into certain situations…a clarity that seemed to come out of the blue….it was magical! So many “aha” moments that allowed me to really understand myself and my relationships.

The biggest insight I received was about my husband. I was able to see how I had hurt him decades earlier and had taken no responsibility for it. In fact, I blamed him for most of what was wrong between us. Bigger still, I felt a desire to apologize to him (a rare event indeed) and acknowledge that he was right all along. For our relationship this has been HUGE. He has shifted how he interacts with me. It is much calmer between us now. With Brandy’s help I have come to understand that finding the acceptance of “what is” is how I will make the decision to stay or go. This has really lightened my mental load. I feel I can relax and just enjoy each day and let the future take care of itself.

There was another challenging relationship in my life…a close family member who irritated me so much I would go out of my way to avoid engaging with him in any way. In only one session I found so much compassion for him that I was in tears. I can now speak with him and feel kindness towards him. Absolutely amazing turnaround.

Our sessions were not just about releasing…it was also very much about creating the life that I DO want. The life, as Brandy puts it, “that is already yours.” I had a lot of fun journaling about this life. I know it will manifest as I continue to dream it into reality.

I am now living with more peace and joy than I thought possible after such a short time together. In addition, I’ve noticed that my intuition is feeding me information…I’ve learned to pay attention to those intuitive hits and to act on them immediately, thanks to Brandy. Brandy has also given me a wonderful little tool to use anytime a negative thought or a “yes, but" appears…it is quickly and easily neutralized with the tool.

Needless to say, I loved working with Brandy!


Dr. Areej Salem

Before I met Brandy, I was struggling with feeling disconnected from my true self. I felt stuck in old patterns of thinking that were holding me back from living fully and authentically. This was especially challenging because it affected how I viewed myself and the decisions I made in every aspect of my life—from my relationships to my career.

Working with Brandy on my microdosing journey was truly transformative. She introduced me to her trademarked "Higher Self" process, which was key in helping me reprogram those old, self-limiting patterns. The combination of the physical medicine and her "Higher Self" coaching process provided the most powerful and effective results I could have hoped for. Her incredible coaching, patience and ability to hold space made me feel supported throughout the entire process.

I experienced my first major shift within a few weeks of working together. I attribute this to her deep wisdom, gentle guidance, and the safe environment she created for me to explore and grow. Under her guidance, I was able to release old patterns and embrace a new mindset that allowed me to step into a more authentic version of myself.

Today, my life feels much more aligned and purposeful. I have a deeper connection with myself, and I approach life with more clarity and confidence. The changes I’ve experienced have been profound, and I am so grateful for the 6-week journey I took with Brandy.

She has my full permission to share my story to inspire others who may be facing similar challenges. Her unique approach is truly transformative, and I’m incredibly grateful for the journey we took together.

As I continue to walk my healing path, it’s become increasingly clear that finding the right guides and mentors is a crucial part of the work. And while that might seem like an obvious point, the process of finding those allies isn’t always easy. 

I count myself lucky to have found my way to Brandy at exactly the right moment. I was emerging from a healing container I’d outgrown — feeling bruised, a little bit lost, and eager to find a teacher with the highest integrity. It was a period of deep emotional upheaval and I’m grateful for Brandy’s early guidance to spend some quiet time integrating all that was emerging in my world before we structured a formal container. 

For nearly a year, I moved at my own pace, strengthening my sense of autonomy before I felt ready to re-connect with Brandy. When we began our work, I was prepared for the commitment and for the truly high vibrational energies she transmits. Brandy’s style is gentle yet firm; powerful, grounding….she has a beautiful sense of humor and joyful connection to spirit. After a challenging year, I’m feeling re-invigorated and excited about all that is beginning to unfold both personally and professionally.

I recently participated in a unique retreat primarily motivated by my desire to experience the presence of Brandy, a natural healer known for her ability to hold space effectively and awaken my inner healer. While I was curious about exploring the psilocybin journey, my main intent was to connect with Brandy and immerse myself in the serene environment she provides.

Having previously met Brandy on several occasions, I was eager to engage with her in a deeper setting and on this beautiful land. The retreat offered a full and enriching experience, allowing me to appreciate not only the natural surroundings but also the transformative potential of the guided sessions. Brandy’s honest and open approach, characterized by a blunt honesty that remains gentle and kind, created a safe space for self-exploration and personal growth.

In addition, I connected with some beautiful souls—amazing women who, like me, were on their own journeys through deep pain, seeking to build strength and move forward with grace. We held each other and developed a strong bond throughout the process.

Overall, the weekend exceeded my expectations by combining the opportunity to explore personal growth with the comforting presence of a trusted healer, a stunning location, and a supportive community.

What a powerful modality! Brandy Nielson’s Higher Self Sessions are an incredibly effective way of connecting to, aligning with, and supporting the life-shifts that are wanting to happen from a higher self perspective.

The best way I can describe it, is that she guides you with an almost unbelievable laser focus straight into the core beliefs, life themes and areas of stagnation or resistance that are next wanting/needing attention. This shines a conscious light on that which lurks and lingers usually just out of reach, and helps to re-write it into its next highest expression.

While each session has its own trajectory, what stands out to me each time is the simple yet carefully designed and incredibly effective wording of the modality, as well as Brandy’s acute attunement to and guiding of the energy moving in the space. This combination seems to be able to move mountains in minutes, and I am at awe each time how much can be satisfactorily touched upon and shifted in just 90 minutes.

In my experience, it takes a few days or weeks for the changes that are made on the higher self level to begin trickling into my embodied experience. There is always a moment for me, a few weeks after the session, when I suddenly realize that the specific thing that we ‘re-wrote’ is simply not an issue any longer.

Another thing that’s interesting is that towards the end of each session, there is usually an inkling of the topic that will be addressed next after the current changes have integrated. So just like the sessions themselves, the development of the work over time also flows in a divinely orchestrated and beautifully paced way. In other words, this work does not force anything to move that isn’t ready, its simply and powerfully supports the cleanest and most complete shift of that which IS ready.

I am still in utter disbelief at the experience I just took part in. I went into the ceremony half-skeptical that I would manage to solve the emotional equation of my intention, but I can safely say that I came out the other side not only having done exactly that, but also achieving some major personal growth along the way.

Brandy was a navigator of the unseen, encouraging me to guide myself towards a deeper connection with my heart and my emotions. I could have told you what I was looking for with my intention before I arrived, but Brandy showed me how to truly understand what that intention meant, and how to understand it completely. To "know" something is one thing, but to "feel' it is altogether more wholesome.

To say that the experience was healing is an understatement. I feel energised and excited to know who I am and where I'm headed for the first time in what feels like a lifetime.


Katrin Gustar

Worth every penny and so much more.

I had my first session with Brandy a few months ago. Since it was my first session I didn’t know what to expect. As I am quite sensitive, I had some trepidation around what emotions it might conjure. Once we began our session I quickly realized and was pleasantly surprised that this powerful healing modality was nothing like the torture having to re visit painful emotions through forms of talk therapy. A few short weeks after, I quite suddenly realized that I had ZERO symptoms.

I have had 15 years of talk therapy and have been suffering with this addiction/ affliction/ self deprecating behaviour for 30 years or as far back as I can remember and never can I remember a time (besides fasting) that I have been completely free of this nagging vice... until now.

I want to go back in time and get all the $10000’s back that I spent on therapy. If this was possible in one session I can’t imagine what can and will transpire through my next sessions.

Save your money on therapy... Brandy is the real deal and this healing modality is 100% effective to facilitate true and lasting change that is remarkable and genuinely LIFE ALTERING.


Tim McCarty

Brandy is nothing short of amazing.

She is a very wise woman, this comes from doing her deep inner work. As a person she’s one of the most authentic beings that I’ve ever met.

Brandy has much life experience with an ability to feel into people in order to best support them, she has multiple tools that she’s gathered on her life journey, the least of which is a great sense of humour and playfulness.

Anyone should consider themselves lucky to have the opportunity to work with such an integrated being.


Nicole Abbot

Brandy is an authentic, emotionally intelligent, and compassionate human. She is an intuitive healer and medicine woman, and has so much to offer anyone who is on their healing journey.

I am forever grateful for the empathetic listening she so graciously provides, and all the wisdom she has to share. The physical and emotional space she holds is sacred, safe, and comforting.

With Brandy as my supportive guide, I look forward to more opportunities to grow in awareness, and heal from my intergenerational trauma.


Alejandro Alaya

I love working with Brandy.

She has a very warm inviting energy that I can easily connect with & have a deep understanding in our communication. I really enjoy how she would hold space for me in my sessions. I could tell right away when we first met, that she has stories (transformative & inspiring life stories) without me asking, and I had a great feeling that my first session with her guidance would turn out magically great, in which it did.

So far I had a couple sessions with Brandy & they still turned out to be amazing with some 'aha' moments. I'm very much looking forward to more of our sessions together with her beautiful energy & her deep understanding. Much appreciation to you, Brandy!

Stephanie LaPorte

Brandy’s presence is reassuring and her confidence into our inner power/potential as human being brings back hope!

I can feel a difference in the way I relate to myself when I feel anxious or depressed. The shift that happened makes me deal with the day-to-day life in a much easier way.

I have more awareness about how I feel and my capacity to hold space for myself is bigger and done with more compassion.


Tessa Hamelin - Tessa Rae Yoga

Brandy has done 3 sound journeys for my yoga retreats and they have all been slightly different and increasingly beautiful!!

Personally I have experienced profound energy through my chakras, major energetic clearing, and yummy bliss during and afterwards.

I highly recommend you try her offerings.


Lyn Bull

I recently had my first experience with a sound retreat evening and it was absolutely amazing!

In a word, it was transformative.

An unexpectedly delightful mind/body/spiritual journey through sound modality.

Brandy Nielson creates a safe and welcoming space for healing in a realm of peace, and a sense of well-being.


Shayna Grimwood

Like many others, I’ve been feeling stuck for the last few years.

A mother to three young children who spent many years in fulfilling, value-aligned “dharma” work, I know what it felt like to live in alignment. Synchronicities showed up effortlessly. Most days felt inspiring and joyful, and I was able to be a safe haven to others needing guidance, anchoring, or advice.

Some combination of experiences traumatic experiences before and during the pandemic left me feeling hopeless and stagnant. I felt like I was living in a muddy valley pond, while knowing what it felt like to live on a lily pad by the ocean with an epic view. I was doing the things I should be doing to live an inspired life, but somehow remained feeling very far away from the desired outcome. 

There was a point when eldest son asked me what brings me joy because he felt like I hadn’t been happy in so long. This brought a heartbreaking realization and wake-up call for me… We had been through so much over the last five years. I knew I was feeling it. But my children shouldn’t be.

Despite regular practice and a comittment to doing “the work”, I felt like none of my tools were working. 

Five months ago I started working with Brandy, and about 3 months ago we started Higher Self work. Since then, my entire inner landscape has changed, and my outer world recalibrated (almost immediately) to reflect that shift!

Working with Brandy and my Higher Self, I started to feel joyful again in a real way. My best friend told me she felt like I was getting my “sparkle” back. Others have said, “You’re back! We missed you!”. I missed my (higher) self too! My children recognize me as more joyful. I can feel the palpable relief in all the important adult relationships around me.

My Higher Self has reclaimed me. 

Things are feeling easeful again. Synchronicities are happening. Life is in flow again. I am inspired by and excited about life. I have more energy and am sleeping better. I am happier. And for the first time in a long time, I am feeling resilient, clear and strong.

Just 6 months ago it felt so far away… and yet I can’t believe how quickly it has come back into flow. Flooding in with the most aligned version of myself.

I cannot recommend this work enough.


Mark Yip

Our session was one of the most comfortable healing sessions I have encountered. She is skilled, intuitive and gentle and I feel that in the initial session she was able to connect with the many levels of my being.

I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a complex, nuanced, and meaningful way to work with their body mind and spirit.


Kyla Gagnon

Brandy's ability to hold clear potent and healing space is beautiful. She is so clear in her connection to her Self, to Spirit and to your energies you can’t NOT feel safe, seen and supported within your session.

I can’t wait to work with Brandy again

P.S hire her or attend one of her sound healing sessions as an aside

Colde Abbot

Brandy has a true gift for this work.

During my journey, Brandy’s experience and knowledge, combined with her powerful spiritual intuition, meant she was always exactly where she was needed. The ceremony space was comfortable, safe and accepting for emotional and spiritual work.

Post-ceremony integration sessions were provided and are key for an individual doing the work on this path.

Life has gotten much calmer. I eagerly look forward to more sessions and more improvements in my life!


Amy Mistal

Brandy is a bridge builder, an ethereal explorer, a compassionate leader, a spiritual warrior and an alchemist of the heart.

Her energy and love are magnetic and I felt a deep trust in opening up and working with her.

We dove deep in our sessions and I look forward to more and more layers being peeled away as I walk deeper in my divinity.


Maurice Van Laar

The Higher Self sessions I’ve had have been so empowering! I can stand in the stress. Overwhelm hits much softer. In the past strength hasn’t been a word I’d have used to describe myself, but it is now. My anxiety still pops up from time to time, but it’s very manageable.

Life has gotten much calmer. I eagerly look forward to more sessions and more improvements in my life!

 

Joanne D-Kendall

Simply amazing experience!


Tim M.

I so appreciated taking part in the drum birthing workshop. Brandy is excellent in facilitating workshops, her ability to hold space for people to feel comfortable is amazing, this allowed me to go deeper into myself and proved to be healing on so many levels.

I would encourage anyone who would like to create their very own personal drum to take this workshop.

Thank you Brandy for the experience. I now have a drum that I can use for my clients and my own healing.


Danielle Keogan

Having had 2 Medicine Bundle sessions with Brandy I can honestly say she has changed my life. Her gift is medicine, pure & potent. The impact of the work she did with me was felt (and seen) for weeks and months to follow. I would recommend her service to anyone. Thank you Brandy!


Julie Scott Poulson

Just what I needed. I have new tools to help me remove barriers in my goals.

 

Joe N.

My experience with Brandy as a guide with the plant medicine was amazing.

I felt safe and welcome from the time I arrived through the entire journey. She is clearly very experienced and has an intuitive sense of people and their unique plant medicine path.

Whether your experience is blissful, difficult, or anything else, you are in good hands.


Amanda Star

Brandy holds such beautiful and sacred space. She listens to learn and is able to decipher, through her insight, training, and knowledge the shadows of the heart.

She helped me walk through patterns that I was unaware of, releasing them with her ability to speak to the subconscious. I highly recommend her sessions!


Olivia Lauzon

Drum Birthing Workshop- The weekend was everything I had hoped it would be and more. So many aspects to it. Everything was exactly as it should have been. I just want to say from the heart that if you ever want to birth your own drum, I would this retreat with Brandy. The connections that were made or created will last forever.

It was amazing. Brandy is a very talented healer and she kept us focused on our work.

Higher Self Method- My path led me to Brandy because my higher self knew!!!! I needed her guidance, extensive knowledge and training in many different areas of health, wellness, and spirituality. Her knowledge is unmatched and the support she provided unwavering. I highly recommend her and her arsenal of services she offers you will be very happy that you did.
