This World Needs You
This World Needs You is an evolving project created to advocate for suicide awareness, mental health and substance use awareness. This World Needs You gatherings are a blend of live music, storytelling, open discussion and community-based music experiences that welcome healing, provide a platform for guests to share their stories, to listen, to be heard and to build genuine connections with oneself and each other.
The mission of these gatherings is to meet people where they are, support them in their deeply personal journeys and empower them to turn their pain into their purpose.
Pain opens doors to understanding one's purpose - purpose creates hope.
This World Needs You is also the name of an album Amanda has written, inspired by her personal healing journey from a traumatic experience that greatly impacted her life. Amanda's album and these intimate live gatherings are shared with love for those
who may be struggling as an offering of connection and hope.
You're not alone.
You belong here.
This World Needs You.

Energy Healings
(Reiki Master Teacher Attuned)
Amanda Bridges has her Reiki Master Teacher Certification.
"Reiki" or "Universal Life Force Energy" is the energy that flows through us, as us. Reiki flows through all of creation - a connection that the ego blinds us from seeing or blocks us from feeling. These sessions are a fusion of energy healing and sound healing energy with sung tones, providing an enhanced sense of belonging, safety and unconditional love.
You will have the opportunity to learn techniques that you can practice beyond the session. These techniques will be intuitively and personally designed for your healing needs at the time of your session.
. . . . .
Through remembering how to connect with our personal power, we can wield our power to empower oneself and others. Unraveling the layers of pain and transform our lives from the inside-out.
Join Amanda on a journey through a cleansing, fortification, nourishing and strengthening experience to balance your spirit-mind-heart-body connection.
May you embody the highest frequency of unconditional love you can embody.
