Spiritual Oppression

Night shouldn’t feel dangerous. Yet for so many people, the dark hours bring a flood of dread—choking sensations, a weight on the chest, flickering screens, footsteps in an empty room, and the paralyzing feeling of being awake but unable to move. We lean into this uncomfortable truth with open eyes and a steady voice, walking through the signs of spiritual oppression and the practical steps to reclaim peace.We share Tashana’s powerful story, from childhood trauma and homelessness to a desperate choice that fractured her sense of self. She describes seeing evil in the eyes of a client, sleep paralysis that felt like hands around her throat, and the moment she finally stepped away.  Whether you frame these moments as sleep paralysis, spiritual warfare, or both, you’ll leave with tools to stand your ground, a community to call on, and hope that holds through the night.
