About Me

My name is Celine Harleaux, and I am the mastermind behind My Dawning Light.

Want to know something? I have been in your shoes.

I have suffered from chronic, cystic acne during 4 long, loooong years in my early adult life. If you suffer, or have ever suffered, from bad acne (or any serious illness, really), you know that one day can feel like a decade.

Acne didn’t exactly help me grow into a confident, drop-dead gorgeous woman. I felt trapped in a life filled with constant anxiety, shame, and self-hatred.

Have you ever felt a spot literally forming on your face — and there’s absolutely nothing you can do to stop it?

Having acne is painful and embarrassing.

And don’t even get me started on the pains of dating with acne.

But it brought me to Reiki. For that only, I’m grateful, acne.

When my skin was at my worst (and my love of life and myself at its lowest), Reiki gave me little nudges.

I slowly stopped all processed foods and sugars. I introduced meditation in my morning routine. I slowly stopped freaking out whenever I woke up with yet another breakout.

And one day, I looked at myself in the mirror, and I said “I love you”… And I meant it.
