Introducing Rev. Dorota Clifford, a visionary healer whose transformative journey blends science and spirituality, who shares her remarkable path, from discovering her gifts as a child in Poland to becoming a beacon of holistic wellness in Canada. Learn more in her exclusive MysticMag interview below.
How and when did you discover your gifts and how did your life change after that?
I’ve had them since I was a child; they were just a little bit on the quieter side. I was seeing things others couldn’t, and I had very vivid dreams, so I was always able to know things before they happened. I grew up in Poland, a very Roman Catholic country, so there wasn’t a way for me to know what was going on; there was nobody to ask. However, that changed when my family moved to Canada in my early teen years.
There, I was invited to go to a metaphysical gathering, and that’s when I started understanding what it all means, why I know things before they happen, why I get the right answers and things of that nature. From there on, it just grew. It changed my life, allowing me to align fully with myself. I am now able to work with energy and feel it.
It’s important to note that everybody has abilities and it’s a part of who we really are. In that light, I’m able to help people tune into their own abilities and their intuitive side. As all have the basic senses, it’s a matter of learning how to strengthen them.
In the past, I have worked in the corporate world for a period of time, and my abilities allowed me to be more compassionate and empathetic and maneuver through it in the easiest way. On the other hand, for me personally, this brought a lot of inner peace.
Can you walk me through one of your private sessions?
Absolutely. Before I have a session, I go into meditation and take some time out. I put music on while meditating, but unlike other people who listen to meditation music, I will listen to music that will raise my vibration and fit my mood at the time. I will also light a candle and I have a prayer asking for protection and connection. In that way, I want to make sure that my words are going to be very clear, easy to understand, and with a lot of love. I want to make sure that whoever it’s coming through, whether it’s a past loved one or a spiritual guide, gets what they need.
Once the client comes into the session, I allow them to just take their time. I don’t ask any questions; I rather just start talking and then let them ask questions if they have any. Most of the time, the things stuff that they were thinking about get addressed before they even ask any questions because I connect with their guides, angels, or whoever comes first for them to help them. It’s really very simple and very straightforward, while also very healing at the same time.
What are the Rites of Munay Ki?
This is actually a very old healing modality, and in its nature, it’s a shaman path. It stems from Peru. Munay Ki are the rites of the shaman path of the Q’ero nation and their descendants of Incas, which are indigenous people of the holy mountain. Basically, when they were invaded, they went up the mountain for quite a few decades. That’s where they got all the teaching that go beyond anything that we know at this moment. It’s a sacred study.
When taking a rite, you are taking it one at a time, even though there are 9 rites. These rites can give a person a step to the evolution of humanity, realigning and attuning to themself. There’s a rite of a snake, which is shedding skin, healing, and anything to do with family.
That’s basically what the rites do – they help you align more with yourself. Working with one of our archetypes can take years. You can’t rush through it and be done. It takes a journey through healing because, as you’re probably aware, when you are a shaman, it takes time.
Munay Ki basically works with energy because everything is energy. There are the prophecies of the ancient Americans that speak about new humans appearing on the planet, so they actually believed to be given to Incas by aliens and put on a mountain to be taught. That was all to help them survive in the mountain when they were hiding from the raids that were happening in their country.
You also offer Reiki services. What can you tell me about that part of your work?
Reiki is basically energy healing. I do Reiki, as well as complete cellular mind-body alignment because everything is energy, as we are energy beings. Sometimes people just have blocks, so it’s not up to me to necessarily heal you, but rather to unblock that energy and to help you heal yourself.
We have anywhere from 7 to 11 energy centers, depending on how far we go. The point of energy healing is to help you recenter and heal the things that don’t belong and it’s holding you back in a way. Reiki, as an energy healing modality, is healing your energy, and that helps with alignment because everything on the spiritual path works together. It’s like the pyramid, and you can’t have one without the other.
Comparing Reiki with CCMBA and Munay Ki, I can say that CCMBA and Munay Ki are a little bit stronger because they go deeper into your being. Reiki is also amazing and goes deep, too, but a bit differently.
What can people find in your “Handbook to Unlocking Your Gifts” and what was your motivation for writing it?
My motivation for writing this manual stemmed from my students, who are engaged in metaphysical studies and developing their mediumship abilities. They’ve consistently requested a comprehensive guide, as everything I teach in my classes is channeled material. I firmly believe that everyone has a unique way of comprehending and engaging with metaphysical concepts. As I’ve mentioned, everyone is connected.
When considering how to approach this manual, I wanted it to be accessible and relatable. Many existing books on the subject are written in the third person, detailing what worked for the author during their awakening. Instead, I aimed to create a resource that focuses on the reader’s experience and includes practical exercises. My students’ persistent requests served as the primary inspiration for this project.
This third version of the manual is designed to assist individuals in tapping into their intuitive abilities through structured exercises. Emphasis is placed on the importance of energetic protection before engaging in any metaphysical practices. My goal is to empower as many people as possible to explore and understand their intuitive nature, including how they receive messages and perceive things intuitively, as everybody has clairvoyance or clairsentience, even though many people don’t know that they do.
Is there anything else about your work that you’d like to share that we haven’t covered?
I just want to highlight that everyone is connected and has their intuitive side. It’s really important to start teaching and tapping into it because your intuitive side helps you go through life. The more you tune into it, the easier your life can be.
Things will still happen, but how you go through them will change because you will have that extra intuitive side of you. It’s also important to keep in mind that in your life you might feel emotions differently. You might be getting repetitive thoughts and, as long as it’s not anxiety or panic urgency, that can be how your spirit angels or God of your understanding is trying to help you go through life.
Once you become attuned to your intuition, it enables you to be more proactive rather than reactive, leading to inner peace. This understanding reinforces the realization that you have free will and personal responsibility, empowering you to take charge of your life.
