About Me – Nina Shoroplova – and How Whole Health on Purpose Has Helped Me

The Short Version

I’ve always had two strong desires: to know more about myself and to be of service to others. I’ve been acting upon those desires for many years. Recently, I realised that, as I have recovered from a number of life-threatening diseases myself, I have skills as a healer. Based upon that knowledge, I recognized that I would be able to offer healing to others. By training in the areas of physiotherapy, holistic nutrition, health products, Soul Realignment™, and Reiki, I continue to heal myself and I have learned how to help others heal themselves. Through Whole Health on Purpose, I offer whole health to others. Contact me and we can discuss where to start a program that will work for you.

The Long Version

I would like to tell you a bit about myself. I feel that if you know a few things about how my life has gone and how Whole Health on Purpose has helped me, then you may start to realise how Whole Health on Purpose can help you. And it would be my honour to help you.

I know that I’m here to learn and to be of service by sharing who I am and what I learn.

The greatest thing I’ve learned so far in my life is that I know I am a spiritual being living in a healthy physical body moving along a path that I set myself when I was in a different state of consciousness from the one I inhabit now. I consider gaining this knowledge to be my greatest accomplishment.

Three Themes

Let me tell you why I pursued this accomplishment, why I consider it my greatest achievement, and how I got here by weaving three themes of my life together. These three themes are

• my desire and search for self-knowledge as a way to understand myself and thereby the world;
• healing myself and helping others heal themselves;
• connecting the dots between physical health and spiritual health.

My Desire and Search for Self-Knowledge

One of the reasons I always wanted to know more about myself was because I didn’t always understand myself. Sometimes, I reacted to things differently from the way others would react and I didn’t know why I felt so different. Sometimes, I didn’t get along with people whom I really wanted to get along with. Some of my relationships weren’t as good as I thought they could be. I cared about some things that others didn’t care about at all and found the reverse was also true. I thought if I knew myself better, then by inference, I would understand others better. And I wanted to know more about who Nina is.

I have been journeying toward this self-knowledge for decades. When I was a girl, this journey took the form of filling in the magazine questionnaires that said, “answer these 20 questions and you’ll know your IQ,” or, “answer these 15 questions and you’ll know more about how others see you.” In the interest of gaining self-knowledge through learning, I learned how to hypnotize my fellow students when I was a physiotherapy student. Later, I had my seasonal colours analyzed. I read a great book that helped me work out my Ayurveda dosha. I trained at Reiki Level I and gave treatments to friends.

Along the way, I tried more esoteric methods of uncovering self-knowledge. I journaled about my dreams in my late teens. I got various readings along the way – a psychometric reading, several palm readings, astrology chart readings, tarot card readings, a coloured-goblet reading, and aura readings. I practised transcendental meditation, did yoga, and took the first level of Three-in-One concepts. I learned about neuro-linguistic programming, emotional freedom technique, and face reading from several perspectives. Wanting to be of help to others, I became adept at some of these myself, sharing my newfound wisdom with family members and friends. I studied astrology and became quite good at assembling birth charts; I gave tarot card and I Ching readings.

Healing Myself and Helping Others Heal Themselves

Let me jump now to how my life was constantly swinging between my own changing health (experiencing dis-eases and regaining my health) and helping others to heal. This is the second theme in my life. As a girl, I recovered from several diseases including meningitis. Then I trained and worked as a physiotherapist. In fact, that profession was my meal ticket from Wales via England to Canada. I worked in several hospitals, enjoying the way I could help others get better.

Newly married, a very creative phase of my life then began: I gave birth and began raising four children (two Canadians and two Australian/Canadians), and I wrote a best-selling history of Douglas Lake Cattle Company, Canada’s largest cattle ranch: Cattle Ranch.

Even while I was in the middle of that creativity, my health took another swing. One by one, over the next couple of decades, I experienced and survived three more serious diseases and a number of minor ones. The strange thing was that, even though my doctors confirmed I had such-and-such a serious disease, I knew at my core I was fit and well. I somehow knew that the dis-ease was just a passing phase.

Connecting the Dots Between Physical Health and Spiritual Health

It was at about this time, as I recovered yet again, that I realised that there must be a purpose to all these illness-and-recovery cycles, and that perhaps I am here to be of service to others, to help others to heal, whether that is physical, emotional, or spiritual healing. At this point, in fact as an offshoot of realizing that there is a purpose to my still being alive, I started to connect consciously with myself as a spiritual being. That process became part of my recovery. I stood back from the minutiae of my daily life and recognized the importance of the mystical experiences, the synchronicities, coincidences, and knowings I had experienced. (These events comprise the third theme in my life and at some point, I’ll write about them, but not here.) I saw the patterns of my life as being the cause of where I was and I realised the only way to get better was to change those patterns, influences, and habits, and to live my life from a different place altogether. I started to see myself as a spiritual being living in a physical body rather than as a human being with a spirit.

Continuing the Search

When a recent opportunity came along to dream about what I might like to do with the next part of my life, I grabbed at it. That’s when I started helping others with healing from a range of aspects. Working as a physiotherapist in England and Canada had been my first foray into healing. My first venture this second time around was to create an online business selling natural health and natural body products, to help people remove chemicals from their cosmetics, shampoos, soaps, home cleaning products, and so on. I also offered high quality multivitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fish oils, herbs, and teas for sale to improve their physical health.

Combining my search for self-knowledge with improving my health and offering health to others, I started taking nutrition courses in 2007. These built upon some nutrition courses I’d taken at SFU in the 1990s. Next, I enrolled at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition to become a Registered Holistic Nutritionist™, enabling me to help people rebalance their health by improving their nutrition. Even during my year of training, I moved into a much greater abundance of health for myself. And working with clients on their nutritional knowledge helped them improve their health, but I wanted to offer them more.

Intuition – That’s What I Want to Work With!

By now, I knew I was on the right track, but I was still thirsting for something more. A piece of the puzzle was still missing. And it was during my nutrition training that one of the students talked about a particular healing modality that she said would increase my intuition. And I thought, “Yes, that’s what I want! I want to increase my intuition!” Psychic has never been a word that has resonated for me – it has too many negative vibes. But intuition – that’s great! The little I knew about intuition was that it’s close to gut instinct, but it’s stronger and more controllable. With joy and anticipatory excitement, I started down this path of growing my intuition and it has been fantastic. The modality through which I have grown and honed by intuition is Soul Realignment™, developed by Andrea Hess.

Creating Whole Health on Purpose Using My Intuition

As a Soul Realignment Practitioner™ and a Registered Holistic Nutritionist™, I’ve used my intuition to create the healing modality Whole Health on Purpose that utilizes these two plus more that I’ve learned from my own journey of self-discovery and healing. I can proudly say I am a holistic healer who uses various techniques that work at both the energetic and the physical levels to help my clients heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This is deeply integrated health in body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

I have achieved this integration of health for myself and I am now helping clients to achieve the same whole health. Clearing clients’ blocks and restrictions, and realigning them to who they are at soul level helps them reconnect with their spiritual health. Whole Health on Purpose corrects soul level misalignments, helping people move out of being stuck into being new and fresh. The results and benefits of this work are like sweeping the leaves off the path or lifting the fallen tree trunk off the road until there’s a clear path and a new vision.

Self-Knowledge at a Soul Level

The other thing that Whole Health on Purpose is doing for me is it continues to answer the question, “Who am I?” So it has brought me back to that original place of wanting more self-knowledge, in the deepest possible way. I now know who I am at soul level. I now know why I respond in one way rather than another. When I have a deep desire to do something, it makes sense; that desire lines up with who I am. And I understand when a certain thing excites me, it’s because my soul resonates with that and wants more of it. Through the Soul Realignment™ aspect of my Whole Health on Purpose work, I have learned so much more about myself. I understand my challenges, gifts, my way of looking at the world. The way I want to experience life now makes complete sense.

The self-knowledge I describe includes knowing that the way I experience my life is quite different from the way you experience yours. I now know I am here to express myself in a different way from the way you express yourself. I know my challenges are not the same as yours; your gifts are different from mine. You living your life and me living my life are as different as though I were playing the card game of Hearts with you while you were playing badminton in return; as though I were watching a horse race, but you saw it as a view from the moon. As different as chalk from cheese, apples from pears, chalk from pairs. This knowledge of our differences makes me far more accepting of everyone.

As an aside, I now know that it’s quite absurd for us to judge anyone else, to be critical of anyone else. We’re playing different games, measuring our lives with different yardsticks; we’re here to experience dissimilar emotions, to express ourselves uniquely, through our own free will. Only we, or better yet our Higher Selves, will know whether we are being who we set out to be, doing what we set out to do. Others cannot know that about us. We cannot know that about them. Until we work with our Higher Self or have a Whole Health on Purpose Initial Soul Profile and Clearing Session, it’s impossible even to know that about ourselves. This even makes self-criticism quite pointless.

Each of us is unique and we are each here as aspects of an interconnected matrix of spiritual beings experiencing ourselves as human on this beautiful and challenging physical planet we call Earth. What I do affects you and what you do affects me. And I have free will. And so, at the same time as I am affected by how you live your life, my life is a reflection of what I feel, think, believe, do, and experience; my life is my own creation; I create my life.

Whole Health on Purpose has helped me; I’m sure it can help you too. I would very much like to provide you with the self-knowledge that will help you live from a place of Whole Health on Purpose. Contact me for a Whole Health on Purpose Initial Soul Profile and Clearing Session. I will be thrilled to be of service.
