How Shaman Alberto Helped Me Heal
As a soldier, I’ve followed leaders my whole life — some who taught me discipline, others who taught me survival. But meeting Shaman Alberto at the MexiSoul Retreat introduced me to a completely different kind of leadership — one rooted in peace, faith, and the unseen.
From the moment I met him, there was something steady about his presence — calm but powerful, humble but deeply connected. He didn’t just “lead” ceremonies; he guided souls. He saw through my armor before I even said a word.
As a veteran, I’m trained to resist vulnerability. To keep control. But Alberto’s energy made it safe to surrender without feeling weak. During ceremony, he carried the space like a warrior of light — no ego, no judgment, just pure service. His chants, his prayers, his intention — they spoke directly to something ancient inside me.
There were moments when I felt the old memories rise — the deployments, the loss, the things I buried. But Alberto’s calm voice and sacred guidance helped me sit in those moments instead of running from them. He didn’t try to fix me. He helped me remember myself.
He reminded me that a true warrior’s strength isn’t about how much pain he can hold — it’s about how much love he can give.
Through Alberto, I experienced healing not just of the body, but of the spirit. He helped me reconnect with faith, forgiveness, and purpose. He showed me that God, spirit, and energy all work together — and that even warriors need grace.
What he gave me wasn’t just healing — it was direction. A new mission. To lead with compassion, laugh with humility, and serve from the heart.
I’ll forever be grateful for the peace he helped me find and the light he helped me remember.
