Ancestral Healing | The Ancestral River Podcast On Transgenerational Trauma

How to connect to our ancestors -
How to heal transgenerational trauma

In this Podcast interview, Berlin-based psychic medium Cornelia Helga Schulze shares her spiritual journey and her work in ancestral healing, energy healing, and spiritual transformation. After a severe spinal injury and multiple surgeries in her 30s, she awakened her clairvoyant abilities through Reiki healing, which she now uses in family constellations, Akashic Records readings, and intuitive energy work.

A core theme of the conversation is transgenerational trauma healing. Cornelia explains how inherited emotional patterns and ancestral wounds can affect descendants, often unconsciously carried in an attempt to ease the burden of past generations. She highlights the importance of emotional healing, self-forgiveness, and energetic release as essential steps in resolving these patterns and clearing energy blockages.

By connecting with the spirit world, spirit guides, and higher consciousness, she supports clients in soul healing, releasing outdated soul contracts, and achieving greater inner peace, life force energy, and spiritual awareness in the present moment.

Chapter Index

[00:00] Intro: Introducing Cornelia Helga Schulze Carla Adams introduces Cornelia Helga Schulze, a Berlin-based psychic medium, spiritual teacher, and systemic coach with over 15 years of experience. Her background in divided Berlin and her work with family constellations, inner child work, and the Akashic records are highlighted.

[02:18] Chapter 1: How It All Began – Cornelia’s Path to Mediumship Cornelia shares that while her abilities were present from birth, they manifested in her 30s following a severe spinal injury and her introduction to Reiki. She describes the initial fear of hearing multiple voices, which felt threatening untilshe found a way to open the channel on her own conditions .

[08:14] Chapter 2: The Difference Between a Psychic and a Medium Cornelia explains that while the terms are often interchangeable in German, in English, a medium specifically contacts the hereafter, while a psychic utilizes other intuitive abilities like clairvoyance or being an empath. Psychics may also read information from objects or communicate with animal souls.

[09:20] Chapter 3: Contact with Animal Souls Cornelia views no fundamental difference between human and animal souls. She recounts a session where she communicated with the soul of a cat, initially mistaking its paws for "UGG boots" because she assumed the soul was human.

[12:20] Chapter 4: Overriding Themes from Ancestors – Guilt and Forgiveness A common theme is the guilt descendants feel regarding unresolved issues with family members. Cornelia notes that ancestors often have a more neutral overview from the divine level and encourage their descendants to find healing and closure.

[16:05] Chapter 5: The Most Valuable Messages from the Spirit World The best messages are not necessarily spectacular but are those that "sink in" and allow the client to understand their situation on a deeper level.

[16:25] Chapter 6: Methods of Perception – Physical Sight vs. Emotions Cornelia often perceives ancestors in fragments, such as hands, rather than full images. Her primary strength is sensing emotions, which she learned from Brenda Davies to be the strongest energy form at the highest point of soul development.

[21:13] Chapter 7: Family Acceptance and Germany’s Historical Context Cornelia attributes skepticism toward mediumship in Germany to historical trauma.

[23:55] Chapter 8: Various Types of Medial Work and Readings In her readings, Cornelia connects to a client's energy field to receive information from guides, angels, or even bodily organs. She addresses questions regarding health, finances, and relationships with total honesty.

[26:55] Chapter 9: Comparison with Spiritual Hypnosis and the Role of Spirit Guides Comparing her work to hypnosis, Cornelia describes receiving answers from a "team" of helpers in the spirit world. She emphasizes that the core content of the message is more important than knowing specifically which guide is speaking.

[32:50] Chapter 10: Dealing with Trauma and the Power of Self-Forgiveness Responding to a viewer's question, Cornelia emphasizes self-forgiveness, including forgiving oneself for the original soul-decision to be born into a troubled family. She recommends rituals like using a stone or burning paper to return transgenerational trauma to the ancestors.

[46:25] Outro: Final Thoughts and Contact Information Cornelia concludes by stating that awareness alone can bring relief and that healing can be gentle rather than painful. She invites listeners to reach her through the contact form on her website for further questions.
