We had the good fortune of connecting with Maria Teresa Pratico-Swanson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Maria Teresa, why did you pursue a creative career?
I believe it is my soul’s purpose to be a vessel for Divine intelligence. This is a calling from my soul that I answered after experiencing a profound spiritual awakening in 2019. I’ve always been someone who dances to the beat of her own drum. As an instrument for Spirit, I believe the words I have channeled through my poetry & healing sessions can profoundly resonate with individuals on their own wellness journey to a more spiritually aligned path of expanded consciousness. Choosing to live as a creative force who channels light language is about allowing. It is a gracious and humble honor to be of service to my fellow human. I see myself as a pioneer, courageously guiding others towards their own unique, God given gifts as we co-creaye with the world around us. My sensitivities are superpowers to assist others on their healing journeys as a master shamanic healer. My life serves as inspiration for others to achieve more aliveness, positivity, peace, joy and love!

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Emotional Musings is the name of my blog, my company, that shares my life’s testimony of strength and resiliency. At Emotional Musings, my journey extends over 6 years as an author and Master Shamanic Healer, where I’ve channeled spiritual insights into poetry that resonates deeply with readers seeking solace and growth. My practice in shamanic healing informs my written work, allowing me to blend creative expression with emotional healing to support others in navigating their paths towards self-discovery and rebirth.

The artistry of my craft is showcased in my poetry books, reflecting my dedication to exploring the intricate dance between light and shadow. My commitment to healing through literature has earned widespread recognition, serving as a testament to the transformative power of embracing and articulating one’s inner journey. I’ve given many podcast interviews where I discuss candidly my spiritual journey and healing modalities. My story serves to inspire others through the lens of love, strength and courage to look at life as the greatest adventure.

I channel light language and codes which are another aspect of being a healer. This language is a combination of all the languages my soul has spoken in all lifetimes.

As a practicing master shamanic healer, I conduct healing sessions in person and long distance all over the world. The poetry I channel is meant to inspire others on their own personal healing journeys and stands as a testimony of truth by my motto, “Triumphing over Trauma”. I openly share the ways I have successfully overcome trauma and abuse, an addiction to drugs and alcohol and an eating disorder. I speak to audiences of all ages and backgrounds as a spoken word artist and a motivational speaker. My work in personal development and self-help can serve anyone on the spiritual path to a higher consciousness and enlightenment of the heart and soul. I’m well versed in holistic health and understand the importance of obtaining and maintaining the mind, body and spirit connection.

I believe we each have a unique story to share and it’s my heart’s joy to honor others in a sacred way which celebrates their individual journey as well as unite us as a collective.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love living in Port St. Lucie! We have many unique shops and restaurants. Taco Dive is one of my favorites for classic Mexican street food. My partner and I also enjoy Zen Sushi. Their food is always consistently delicious. I live in Florida because I’m a beach lover and Sun worshiper. The beaches on Hutchinson Island are some of the most naturally serene beaches in Florida. I also love Jensen Beach. The downtown shops and restaurants in Stuart are so eclectic. On Sundays, they host live music that is free and overlooks the water! I live near an area known as Tradition where there is a lake for walking, shops and restaurants like 3 Natives, where I get a smoothie,fresh squeezed juice or acai bowl and sit in the outdoor square on a park bench enjoying the Florida sunshine.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
God, Source, the Light of all aliveness and being. I dedicate everything I do to the energy that has created me. I also want to give thanks and praise to my two children, Tyler and Miles. Being a mother has taught me countless lessons in grace, humility and the ability to believe in myself. I see my boys as my greatest teachers. May they continue to shine as the beautiful individuals they are!
