Inner Work 265: Dismantling Harmful Power Dynamics in Akashic Record Readings (and Healing Work Overall)

Inner Work 265: Dismantling Harmful Power Dynamics in Akashic Record Readings (and Healing Work Overall)

Author: Josephine Hardman, PhD February 21, 2026 Duration: 25:28

Often unknowingly, many Akashic Record readers and practitioners are breaking ethical guidelines and perpetuating harmful power dynamics in the reader-client relationship.

This is not only harmful to the people we're here to serve, but also prevents readers and healers from doing the highest-level, transformative, impactful work they're really here to do. Let's change this!

I believe strongly in RAISING the standards of ethics and professionalism in our spiritual and healing communities, so we can do better both for ourselves and for our clients. 

Join me for this discussion on:

  • dismantling old, harmful power dynamics between reader and client
  • reclaiming your power and inner knowing, even when working with a healer
  • honoring the healers, readers, and lightworkers who ARE putting in the ongoing work to be the best, most effective, most ethical practitioners they can be (and who truly care!)
  • 4 specific ethical guidelines that Akashic Record readers will (often unknowingly) break, and what to do instead
  • how we can do better as practitioners, both for our clients and for ourselves
