Short videos in Fernanda's own words, one idea each, with a small practice at the end. Every video has its own page with the full transcript, so you can read instead of watch, or come back to one line.
Fernanda, an energy healer for over twenty years, says this kind of tiredness often lives in the nervous system. All day it asks one question: am I safe? Modern life rarely tells it the danger has passed. So the body stays a little bit ready for months, even years, and gets tired in a way sleep doesn't fix. She calls that heavy, closed feeling stuck energy, or tension if the word sits better.
Fernanda says yes, and she points to two studies she read. In a 2013 sleep lab study at the University of Basel, people slept about twenty minutes less around the full moon. A 2021 University of Washington study found people went to bed later in the nights before it. Nobody knows exactly why. For her, the moon brings feelings up the way the tide brings things onto the sand, so a restless night is information.
Fernanda defines grounding as bringing your attention out of your head and down into your body. You let the ground hold you, the way a chair holds you at the end of a long day. That pulls attention away from the worry loop. Your breath slows and the out-breath gets longer, and you start to notice where you hold tension. It's why she teaches grounding first and does it every morning, like brushing her teeth.
Fernanda says what many people call laziness is usually exhaustion. Lazy is having energy and choosing not to use it. Burnout is spending energy you didn't have, for a long time, until your nervous system saves what's left for survival. For her, the shame of stopping is one more weight to carry. Calling it tiredness is how you stop fighting yourself.
Fernanda explains that when life has been stressful for a long time, the nervous system learns that busy means safe. Rest then looks like dropping your guard, so the body sends guilt and restlessness as a little alarm, and quiet lets the feelings you had no time for finally surface. Her advice is to stay a minute longer than feels comfortable, because rest is how the body restores and learns the danger has passed.
Fernanda says your nervous system reads other people all the time. It picks up their tension and gets ready as if it were yours. So after some conversations you're carrying their stress in your own shoulders. In her view, energy also moves between people, and some people take without meaning to. Her answer is to ground before and after, ask yourself whether a feeling is really yours, and hand the heaviness to the ground. She never tells anyone to cut people off.
Fernanda explains that Mikao Usui developed Reiki in Japan in the 1920s, so it has a name and a date. For her it's attention, energy, and a body that's finally allowed to slow down. She uses her hands, her attention and a lot of quiet, as one tool inside her grounding, breath and release work. People feel it differently. Some feel warmth or tingling, some cry, some feel nothing at all. You don't need to believe in it, she says, only be willing to notice what happens.
Fernanda explains that your nervous system asks one question all day: am I safe? When the answer has often been no, the body doesn't know the day is over just because you lay down. Quiet is the first moment nothing else is louder, so the list you carried all day finally gets heard. Her answer is a slow breath out, longer than the breath in. For her, that tells the body one clear thing: the danger has passed.
Fernanda uses the same order every time. Notice where the heaviness sits in your body. Hold that feeling for a little bit, and feel it with all your cells. Accept it, and only then let it go with the breath. Naming it helps too: say it out loud, write it down and burn it, or keep a journal. Then she hands it to the ground and asks Mother Earth to look after it, because the earth has held mountains for millions of years.
Fernanda says we are nature, made of the same water and minerals. So when the season turns, our energy, or our mood, turns with it. As the days get shorter, the body notices the light changing before the mind catches up. Nobody can say exactly why less light changes how we feel. For her, wanting to slow down in autumn is real information from the body. It's a good time to let go, sleep more and say no to a few things.
Fernanda points to the trees in autumn. They let their leaves go one at a time, without waiting for the perfect moment, and she says we don't have to hold on either. For her, the equinox is a day of balance, when day and night are almost equal. It's a good time to ask what you'll carry into the darker half of the year, and what you'll leave behind. To let something go, she notices where the heaviness sits, feels it, accepts it, and breathes it out.
Fernanda says that for most people she sits with, the honest answer is both. Burnout can look exactly like sensitivity, because a worn-down body makes every sound and every mood in the room land harder. She suggests starting with rest and grounding rather than a label, since a grounded body borrows less from other people, and she sees sensitivity as information, never weakness.
Fernanda explains that the Harvest Moon is the full moon closest to the autumn equinox. In 2026 the two were only four days apart. For her, the season is already asking you to let go, and the full moon brings feelings to the surface, like the tide bringing things up onto the sand. That's why the week can feel heavier than a normal full moon week. She meets it with awareness, then acceptance, then release, in that order.
Fernanda describes a distance session simply. You rest at home at a time you've agreed on. She holds a quiet space on her end for the length of a normal session, then sends you a short message about what she noticed. For her, energy moves between people and doesn't stay in one room. And the body can't always tell being somewhere from vividly imagining it. She says honestly that nobody knows exactly how it works, and you don't need to believe in it.
Fernanda works with water, fire, earth, air, and spirit above them all. Each morning she asks herself which one she needs that day. Water cleanses. Fire burns what doesn't serve you and gives you strength. Earth grounds you, air lets things go with the breath and the wind, and spirit brings protection and love. The key, she says, is to ask clearly, because the elements need to know exactly what you're looking for.
