A journey into the unknown often begins with a push from the universe, subtle at first and then impossible to ignore. For Deepshikha Joshi, a former Army officer who once prided herself on discipline, structure, and unwavering control, the transition to civilian life in December 2022 was supposed to be seamless. Selected for a coveted job in Navi Mumbai, she settled into what she believed was a well-earned, predictable routine. Life seemed perfect—or so she thought.
Then, the unexpected happened. Her two beloved dogs, inseparable companions, began to turn on each other, transforming their home into a battlefield. Despite exhausting all conventional means—trainers, behaviorists, even medication—peace remained elusive. As a last resort, she turned to an energy healer, unfamiliar yet desperate for a solution. But instead of addressing just her pets, the healer posed a question that changed everything:
“What is happening with you?”
That was the moment of awakening.
The Unseen Threads That Bind Us
Energy healing, an ancient practice rooted in the concept that emotional and spiritual imbalances manifest in our external world, suggested something radical—her pets were mirroring her own unresolved issues. The realization was devastating but also illuminating. In a bid to restore harmony, she embarked on her first session of chakra balancing, oblivious to the transformation it would ignite.
What began as a means to help her dogs evolved into an all-consuming journey. Within weeks, she found herself deeply immersed in the Merlin Trinity Healing System, a powerful modality that reshapes one’s inner world through energy alignment. What seemed like a mere certification turned into a path of profound self-discovery.
The Rollercoaster of Healing
Healing, as Deepshikha soon learned, is not a linear process. The initial months were euphoric, each milestone feeding her sense of achievement. But healing has a way of dismantling the ego. A year into her practice, life threw relentless challenges her way, each one demanding deeper self-work, humility, and resilience. “Healing humbles you,” she reflects. “It is not about gaining power, but about surrendering to the process.”
The Unalome symbol, an ancient Buddhist representation of the spiritual journey, perfectly encapsulates this path. The intricate loops represent the struggles, doubts, and setbacks one faces before reaching enlightenment. As the journey progresses, the path straightens—a testament to clarity, wisdom, and self-mastery.
From Seeker to Guide
The metamorphosis was undeniable. Where there was once exhaustion, emotional detachment, and chronic stress, Deepshikha found vitality, purpose, and an innate ability to connect with others. Strangers began gravitating towards her, drawn by her newfound wisdom and grounding presence. What started as mere conversations soon turned into mentorship and healing sessions.
Today, she stands as a certified holistic healer, proficient in multiple modalities:
- Merlin Trinity Healing System
- Reiki Healing
- Crystal Healing
- Angel Healing
- Akashic Records Reading
Beyond just energy work, she facilitates past life regression, inner child healing, guided meditation, and distance healing. Her expertise spans not only individual well-being but also healing deep-seated generational trauma and realigning individuals with their true life’s purpose.
Healing the Healers
In the past two years, she has worked with people across diverse backgrounds—those struggling with relationship issues, career roadblocks, mental health crises, and even extreme cases of hallucinations and depression. The most profound realization? “Just because someone carries their burden well does not mean it isn’t heavy.” Healing is a deeply personal yet universal experience, and even the strongest individuals need a space to heal.
The Power of Surrender
Through this journey, certain mantras have become her guiding principles. Among them, Sai Baba’s timeless wisdom:
“Shradha aur Saburi”—Faith and Patience.
In a fast-paced corporate environment where energy-draining interactions are unavoidable, she often reminds herself of another saying:
“Not my circus, not my monkey.”
A gentle nudge to disengage from unnecessary chaos.
The Breath of Gratitude
Drawing inspiration from Ruzbeh Bharucha’s Fakir series, Deepshikha emphasizes the finite nature of human breath. “Instead of wasting our breath on complaints, why not use it for gratitude, for chanting His name?” she muses. The essence of healing, after all, lies in shifting from a mind-driven existence to a heart-centered life.
A Journey Without a Destination
Healing, Joshi firmly believes, is an ongoing journey. Every session, every client, and every personal breakthrough is another step on the path. And for those willing to embark on this voyage, the rewards are infinite. As she continues to evolve, both as a healer and as a human, her story stands as a testament to the power of self-work, surrender, and the infinite wisdom of the universe.
