I’m Reverend Erin-Ashley Kerti, the founder of Spiritual Mechanic.
(It’s pronounced Care-Tea, because we all know tea is delicious.)
My name means Peace-Tree Spark Plug.
This means I am of peace and work to create that in all areas of my life, from the roots to each individual interaction.
But I’m also a spark plug, so don’t think for a second I won’t light a fire under your ass to get you started on your journey. š
I started Spiritual Mechanic to help empaths and other psychically sensitive individuals learn how to step into their soul purposes and heal the world.
I help folks all the way from learning to talk to their guides for the very first time to building a financially stable, ethical, and robus spiritual based internet business.
I’ve taught thousands of sensitive people since I began this work in 2011.
Here’s how I got here.
My Story
I am a tinkerer of concepts.
You see, I come from a long line of engineers. While I have the same math and science ability as my ancestors, Iām drawn more strongly to concepts and spirituality than anything else. (I still do math for fun, though.)
Iāve always sensed energy, known things without knowing how I knew them, and understood other peopleās emotions and the causes.
(Sound familiar?)
I didnāt understand HOW any of that worked, but it didnāt seem that important to me.
That changed when I was 19.
In 2004 I became very ill, but no one knew, including myself.
I went to the doctor several times for feeling stressed and tired, but he couldn’t find anything in the blood work and told me to relax more.
I assumed it was in my head.
The dream I’ll never forget
One night I dreamed that I was in the hospital wearing a hospital gown with a weird blue-green pattern, in a wheelchair and happy. I felt peace in the dream, which was very odd because I did not associate hospitals with any positive emotions. Instead, I hated hospitals and even feared them.
I awoke with a start.
I half thought it was a premonition at that time — and half thought I was off my rocker.
While I don’t usually get detailed dreams, this dream was like looking at a photograph.
I still remember it more vividly than my dream last night.
Two months later I went to the hospital with pneumonia.
While I was wearing that exact hospital gown I had worn in my dream, the doctors diagnosed me with a very rare disease called Addison’s Disease.
Once my health stabilized, one of the doctors told me that without that diagnosis, they “only would have found out in the autopsy.”
That āwoke me upā to the fact that there is much more to the universe than what we see and know.
But, as so often is the case, I just pushed it to the background and continued doing what I thought I was supposed to do.
I went to college and got involved in extracurriculars.
I had success there.
Then things changed.
In 2009 I had a major breakdown.
I knew I needed to teach people something, but I had no idea what it was. My intuition was trying to guide me, but I was (am) stubborn as hell. I resisted.
My heart was no longer in the work I was doing.
I suffered from panic attacks. I cut off from friends and colleagues. I went into a depression. My body got very sick.
From this place of being my most broken, I started my work.
Here’s what I did.
- Looking for guidance, I started to explore spirituality.
- I meditated for 3 hours a day for 3 months to see what would happen.
- Willing to do whatever it took, I purchased, borrowed and (Iām ashamed to say) stole any spiritual guidance I could get my hands on.
I didnāt seek out teachers who spouted off useful platitudes like āforgive othersā and ālet goā and ābe in the present moment!ā Instead, I sought teachers who gave practical how-tos and step-by-step guidance on HOW to do these things.
In 2011, two years after the breakdown, I finally broke through. I understood that Iām here to teach others about practical spirituality.
After moving to Las Vegas, I received Professional Intuitive Training from world-renowned intuitive counselor,Ā Erin Pavlina.
I graduated from the University of Metaphysical Sciences in 2012 with a Bachelor of Divinity and obtained my ordination in 2013.
This learning changed things for me.
You see, in order to LIVE your ideal life, your spirituality has to be practical.
It must be something you can practice.
And I love to mix practicality and spirituality.
Youāll never hear me say something like, āForgive your ex for being a jerkā and not follow it up with the exact steps to take to forgive them.
If you canāt apply the information, itās useless.
I give you the tools you need to apply spiritual platitudes in realistic ways.
I specialize in forgiveness (letting go) and tapping into your intuition.
Here’s what I promise you from Spiritual Mechanic.
At Spiritual Mechanic, we believe that your spiritual practice should have physical world applications and results.
All of what you do spiritually will ideally connect you deeper to the physical plane and allow you to live your life in aligned action with greater ease, confidence and connection.
When we recommend a process or a technique, itās been tested in the physical world with tangible, positive results.
Spiritual Mechanic creates online training and programs for empaths and psychically sensitive individuals to step into their soul purpose and heal the world, whether they are just starting to talk to their guides or ready to create a sustainable, spiritually-based online business.
If you’re an empath or a psychically sensitive individual, you will always have the training you need here at Spiritual Mechanic.
We will always have scholarships available for those in financial hardship for all of our courses.
To accomplish this goal, I promise we will never:
- Use high-pressure sales techniques
- Accept anyone for paid programs who we donāt believe is a perfect fit
- Do affiliate deals with anyone we wouldnāt share for free
- Intentionally break the trust of our sensitively super powered clients and customers.
