Your Inner Sanctuary~

The famous philosopher Socrates said “Beware the barreness of a busy life”. I think that’s a very interesting quote! Have you noticed these days how busy we all are? Much of our attention is focused on the outside, what needs to be done today, tomorrow…or right NOW.  Our brains are moving in a thousand different directions. How do we mangage our jobs (or lack thereof), families and responsibilities? How can we create and manifest more money? Find the love of our lives? Be FREE? Why is this or that happening in our lives? As the holiday’s are quickly approaching we find ourselves with even more “busy-ness” and yes, stress! Wouldn’t it be great if we could all experience a peaceful, Norman Rockwell painting type of holiday? Or how about  just have a moment  when the world wasn’t buzzing in our heads so loud it’s almost deafening? I call that ‘loud head’ btw…not exactly a psychic term but I think it describes it pretty well!

It seems to me that the “barreness” Socrates is talking about is in many ways our own spirit. The joy of being safe in the body, at peace and in alignment with the earth, the universe and our very own selves. Occupying the space of our INNER SANCTUARY! There is much talk about centering, alignment, creating (manifesting), being in the body etc. There are different beliefs & modalities as to how to get there, how to BE and how to manage it all in this world of “busy-ness”.  It can also feel very unsafe to be in the midst of it. The reality is that it is a challenge at best with our busy lives to merely sit down, let alone quiet the mind and be still.  After all there’s so much we need to DO! So what’s the bottom line? Well, read on dear ones!

All of this has to do with YOU taking CARE of YOURSELF! Actually taking the time to heal yourself, rejuvinate and bring back YOUR energy so you have access to it! This of course means ALL OF YOU! MIND, BODY, SPIRIT AND SOUL! Not only CAN you do this but WHEN you do this, you will find you have more energy, less effort and things will begin to manifest themselves. Here are some interesting questions for you to ponder…. Do you care for yourself, answer to your own needs, nurture yourself and take as much time for YOU as you do for others? Do you take the time to quiet your mind, make your body safe, focus on your essence and what makes YOU happy? Do you feed your spirit & soul just as you feed your body?

For me, the answer lies in finding my INNER SANCTUARY. It’s really amazing how your “reality” will shift when you take time out of your day to access your inner sanctuary. It is a place of peace, a time to step out of the “busy-ness” of daily life. A place of safety where you can begin to clear whatever you have taken on from others. It is a place to re-discover all that is YOU and get in alignment with the flow of your desires & dreams. Getting grounded and making the body safe is the first step. When you are grounded, releasing all you have taken on and focusing on the flow of energy you can effortlessly move into your INNER SANCTUARY. Your own personal place of peace & calm. There is a true joy in feeling YOUR energy flowing in YOUR body! This is how you care for your spirit! It’s how you heal, rejuvinate and access the unique essence that is your true self.

As I mentioned in the beginning, the holiday’s are quickly approaching (in the States Thanksgiving is merely 2 weeks away) and it will be even more important to find time to care for ourselves.  We will be inundated with  added obligations from family & friends. It can be an overwhelming and stressful time for many. When you have the tools* and take time to care for your spirit, you will experience more joy and the true spirit of the holidays!

Mirror mirror on the wall….

As I take my own personal growth steps, clear my energy and find my own truth, it seems that one picture or another reappears so I can yet again find my truth. This time from where I am in present time with a deeper level of understanding. Thus is the way it is with energy. When you take a “step up” in your vibration you have the opportunity to work on something from an even more unique perspective…you might even say at a deeper level with new awareness of how it has been effecting you. I have chosen to share a bit of my personal growth with you as you may find some of your own answers from just reading it. The image I chose for this blog is one of my favorites and may strike a chord with you as well! It is a reminder to be sure!

In meditation last week I was humming along clearing energy when I got a bit stuck on some pictures of how other people see me and feel about me. I try to live my life as a caring, loving, happy little spirit. I love to teach and inspire so every now and again I try to see myself as others see me. In fact I have spent many an hour wondering how people perceive me. I want to live from a loving heart can others see that? Do they see me as capable? Successful? Am I seen as happy? Sweet? With a caring, giving heart?  Do they GET me? I have even asked the question why can’t someone see how much love I have to give? I was looking clairvoyantly from the OUTSIDE…IN… trying to SEE what others SEE. As I began my own healing, calling  energy back from the questions and  “pictures” associated with them, it hit me right between the eyes….LITERALLY since I was looking from a clairvoyant space! lol I was trying to see ME from someone else’s perspective…from the outside IN not looking at myself from the INSIDE out!

Now I should probably take a moment to explain that when I do energy work for myself or others I like to “follow the bouncing picture”. That means when I see a picture or energy, I see it, acknowledge it, call my energy out of it, let it go then allow the next picture or energy to appear. I then clear that and so on. In this case, it lead me to look at the pictures about; How do I SEE myself? and How do I FEEL about myself?  WOWZA!!!! HELLO!!!! How do I perceive myself?! I KNOW that sounds simple and yes I have found and cleared these pictures before but for whatever reason, it was time to examine them AGAIN for the very first time! With neutrality and a deeper level of awareness I found my answers. How others SEE ME, what they FEEL ABOUT ME, AND how much they UNDERSTAND ME is directly related to HOW I SEE MYSELF, WHAT I FEEL ABOUT MYSELF AND HOW MUCH I UNDERSTAND MYSELF!!!!

I was so excited about this new, yet once again, discovery that I told my dear friend Jessica, who by the way has a wonderful site Askandallowonline.com. She immediately began laughing hysterically at me! Her only words were “now YOU know THAT!” Well she was right, I DO KNOW that but when I began looking at myself I found some pretty gnarly lies I had bought into and took on as my TRUTH. Once I blew out these pictures I once again experienced CERTAINTY! I was able to VALIDATE myself and found  JOY and LIGHTNESS at a vibration I hadn’t experienced before! Not only that, I had so much of my energy back that I’ve been creating and manifesting at light speed! This is what happens when you clear out a lie, blow a picture and get your energy back!!!

 So as with all my blogs, I invite you to take a moment to look at yourself. Do you ever wonder what people think of you? or How people see you? Ever asked the question “Why doesn’t anybody GET me? How come they can’t see how capable or loving I am?” Have you ever asked…(and dare I even ask if you’ve ever asked this question)… ”what’s WRONG with me?” Is there something in your life that you have spent YEARS or even most of your life trying to get someone(s) validation for? How do YOU see YOURSELF? How do YOU feel about YOURSELF?

Well my dear lovely ones, look in the mirror and see what looks back! The very thing you seek is right in front of you! All of your answers lie within that beautiful YOU! The answers to the questions you may have spent a lifetime asking can be answered with these simple questions…How do you see yourself? How do you feel about yourself? Do you understand YOU? It is said, “what you think about, you bring about.” So if you think of yourself a certain way, that most certainly will be how others see you. Change your thoughts and you will change your world!!! Just like the kitten looking into the mirror, see yourself as you wish to be seen!

Playing in YOUR SANDBOX: )

Remember when you were little and you got to play in the sand? Whether it was the beach or your sandbox all you needed was a small shovel, bucket, maybe some water and your imagination! Your socks and shoes were thrown off so your little toes could just squish into that fun sand. You could create whatever you wanted and there was a feeling of pure joy with the experience. It didn’t matter who was watching, or if your castle had a moat. It was really FUN if you could get someone to bury in it!  You would create something then destroy it because you had the certainty that the next thing you created would be even better! There was magic in that sandbox! You were in a world of your own imagination building your dream! It could be simple or intricate but nonetheless it was YOURS….AND there were NO LIMITS!

For me there were giggles, wiggling toes and sunshine! The sandbox was a HAPPY place where I could create something, destroy it, then create something new. It didn’t have to be perfect, I was not limited to one thing our another. In my sandbox everything was FUN and POSSIBLE! To this day I love going to the beach. I find it very healing to walk in the sand barefoot and just listen to the water gently lapping against the shore. There is an awareness about me. It’s about feeling the sensations, being in the body and having my space. It still delights me to create in the sand!  My mind goes a mile a minute with the infinite possibilities!

What would you say if I told you that LIFE, specifically YOUR LIFE, was really like that sandbox? A place to have FUN, grow, create and re-create at will and there were no LIMITS to what you could do and accomplish! What if every grain of sand represented a moment in time and when all put together makes you who you are…..A creative, spiritual being having a human experience.  Each grain of sand IS a moment and you can use those grains to grow, change and create yet another masterpiece. Gets you to thinking doesn’t it?

It’s amazing to me how many people I read that have been invalidated and had limits placed on wanting to play in their sandbox. How’s YOUR sandbox these days? Is it a fun place? Are you limited in the what, where or how you create? Is there something you’d like to do but there’s a little voice in your head that says “hahaha you can’t do THAT”! Is there something in the back of your mind you’ve really wanted to do but keep it in the back of your mind? If so, you may have had a limit placed on you! Perhaps at 3 when you said you wanted to be an astronaut, policeman, fireman etc. you were patting on the head and told ”that’s nice” sweetheart. Mom & Dad thought it was cute and then went on to imagine what THEY wanted for you. A more realistic life.  My personal favorite is about having it ALL! Of course you can’t have it ALL! Maybe you can have a little piece every now and then but for sure you can’t have it all at the same time! Well…..WHY NOT?

One of the challenges I have in writing a blog is how many different directions I can go with it. I open a plethora of pictures and try to stay focused! For the purpose of THIS blog I want to address the limits that are either placed on us or that we place on ourselves. In many ways, the current economy has forced some of us to re-evaluate what it is that we are doing, expand our creativity and even takes steps to follow that “dream” in the back of our minds. What I see in present time are people searching for HOW  to blow out the limits and go in a different direction! Although perhaps forced to do it by circumstance it seems to me that just about EVERYONE is now taking some sort of step to find their answers, clear the limits and begin anew to create the BEST sandcastle ever! What great news!

So,  each moment is a grain of sand. It’s what you do with each moment that builds your creation! Every experience, good or bad, allows you to grow & learn. Is your focus and intent centered on your imagination and what lies within or is it on outside circumstances (limits) that you can’t do anything about? Are you building your sandcastle? Are you playing and having FUN in your sandbox? Why not take a moment right now to imagine what it would be like to ~PLAY IN YOUR SANDBOX OF LIFE~ How would it feel to build the most glorious castle ever?!

Now is the time to let go of the limits! Begin to dream of your glorious sand castles! What would your life look like? Feel like? See the details, smile inside as you imagine those grains of sand coming together. No dream is too big! Feel the sand under your feet in your sandbox! Wiggle your toes and bask in the sunshine of your dream! Sprinkle your sand castle with a bit of gold fairy dust, show it to the universe and then allow it to float off so that it can come back to you with ease! There’s no effort in this! Each moment in time is a grain of sand that makes you who you are! Singularly separate, yet all ”packed” together is YOUR beautiful creation!

Light, Love & Abundance to all~Debbie

Are you waiting for Godot….?

This blog was inspired by several lovely women whom I’ve recently had the opportunity to read. These profound readings brought to mind the Samuel Beckett play, “Waiting for Godot”. ”Waiting for Godot follows two days in the lives of a pair of men who divert themselves while they wait expectantly and unsuccessfully for someone named Godot to arrive. They claim him as an acquaintance but in fact hardly know him, admitting that they would not recognise him were they to see him. To occupy themselves, they eat, sleep, converse, argue, sing, play games, exercise, swap hats, and contemplate suicide — anything “to hold the terrible silence at bay”.  The play opens with the character Estragon struggling to remove his boot from his foot. Estragon eventually gives up, muttering, “Nothing to be done.” ( reprinted from Wikipedia) and thus, they spend the rest of their time “doing nothing” but waiting. I encourage you to Google the play as it is very thought provoking….That said, I was inspired by the readings AND the play…perhaps you will be too!

In the readings there seemed to be a theme that these women were “waiting” for something. In fact, each of these women validated that they were indeed “waiting” for the perfect moment, perfect relationship and to move forward at just the right time. As in the play they felt “Nothing to be done”  until everything lined up perfectly and matched exactly what  they had imagined. And so they did nothing but wait. I asked one woman if she knew what she was waiting FOR. Her answer was that she had always imagined a perfect life, with the perfect husband, the perfect family and to be perfectly happy.  She was waiting for perfection and in many ways invalidated or discounted anything that didn’t “match” that expectation of what it would look like.  In fact much of the time she couldn’t have the beautiful life she had already created for herself because it wasn’t the perfection she thought she was seeking. Again, “nothing to be done” but wait.

So is there somthing YOU are WAITING for? It could be a relationship, the perfect job,  the kids to go off to college so you can begin a new chapter in your life, for that perfect guy or woman to call, for someone to validate you. Are you waiting for ‘just the right time’? Those are just a few examples but you may have something else in mind. Now I ask you…what does whatever it is YOU are waiting for look like to you and is it what’s called a PERFECT PICTURE or ideal? You could actually have so much of your energy focused on the PERFECT that you have stopped creating and have little energy for anything else except your day-to-day “chores” and responsibilities! Have you stopped experiencing , allowing and living life in the present? Are you having what you already have? What might you have missed WHILE  you were waiting and focusing on that PERFECT PICTURE to manifest itself? It may be that the very thing or answer you are waiting for is right in front of you but your attention is somewhere else so you’ve missed it! The interesting thing is that it’s possible some of these PERFECT PICTURES that you so dearly hold on to AREN’T EVEN YOURS!

Of course you have dreams and imagine how you want your life to be.  BUT when you turn all of your focus and attention to matching something perfect, you can get a bit stuck. If you are WANTING in many ways it is like lacking something not to mention it ties up your energy! If your attention is focused on or actually IN someone else’s picture…say something your Mom wanted for you as an example, you are not even focusing on your own TRUTH.  When your energy is focused on or even caught up in a picture it’s difficult to create, you can lose motivation or give up altogether!

Well guess what? When you pull your energy and focus out of the pictures you have MORE to create WITH!  ALLOW the process to just happen! When you are allowing there’s no need to be DOING. Manifesting your dreams can be as simple as imagining the dream, letting it go and allowing it to come back to you. NO EFFORT! You don’ t need to focus outside yourself ON or IN the picture.  You don’t have to wait for Jupiter to be aligned with Mars. All your answers are within that beautiful, creative, BRILLIANT, loving YOU! Look inside yourself to find your PASSION. What YOU really dream of! It may be different from what think you SHOULD be doing, or what you always thought you WOULD be doing! It’s about BEing:-)

You have the ability and power to change your life by bringing your very essence home, so to speak. Much of what you need to do is SIMPLY bring your attention back to you and be in present time. Call back your energy from the pictures! I know it seems simple and it really is…your intent goes a long way!  Notice how it feels as you fill up with YOUR ENERGY. When your own very personal, unique energy is in your body you vibrate and shine brightly.  Your motivation comes back, you see possibilities where you thought none existed and all the things you were waiting for will begin to appear in present time. Waiting for something implies the future yet creating  happens in the here and now. So what are you waiting for? Look inside yourself! Meditate! Instead of waiting at a bus stop, passing the time, waiting for some sort of perfection focus on the feeling of YOU within YOU! Focus on how good it will FEEL when your dreams become reality! Take a moment right now, create the intent to call back all your energy and fill up with it! Just for fun repeat after me: ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO ME!

MOM WAS RIGHT! Cleaning IS good for the soul!

So OK here it is! I admit it! My Mom was right! Cleaning is good for the soul! She has always told me that since I was little and how right she was and indeed IS! I will add that cleaning is not only good for the soul but it’s good for your spirit as well!

I have a little joke about how I know when I’ve lost my space……I look around my home there are dishes piled in the sink,  the windows have a dusty film,  laundry is stacked high and there seems to be a layer of dust on everything.   When I notice my physical space looking like this, of course, I know it’s time to clean! No matter how long it takes, I begin to clean, room by room, top to bottom. When I’ve finished and everything is sparkling it FEELS really good! I can enjoy my space again. Perhaps you’ve noticed the very same thing after you’ve done a really good cleaning. It feels good right down the soul!

When I’ve lost my physical space it’s a  reminder to check in on my spirit space as well. Just like the space in your home you have a spiritual space that may be in need of a clearing out or cleaning. In the spiritual sense, there may be energies that have “piled up” in your space. Specifically energy that isn’t yours.  You could have picked up energy in your day-to-day encounters like work, it could be old from when you were a child or current family & friend responsibilities. There are many reasons why & how you collect up this energy but I’m going to speak of this in general terms. So how do you know if you’ve lost your space? Well, that’s a really good question to ask! And the answer is….if it doesn’t feel good it’s probably not yours!

Have you ever thought or made a statement like  “I just don’t feel quite like myself today” “I don’t feel comfortable in my own skin” “There’s so much going on in my head right now”? Do you ever feel overwhelmed or have the feeling like you are unable to move? These are all indications that there are other energies in your space. Sometimes you can be so caught up in the foreign energies and chatter you can forget who you are. When spirit is acknowledged you remember who you are and the rest merely falls away…..NO EFFORT.  I call this a miracle! As you bring back your own energy/essence everything seems a little brighter, you can manifest your dreams and create effortlessly! You FEEL GOOD in your own skin and you are comfortable being YOU!

Now the question becomes how do you get your space back? One of my good friends calls it needing to “get organized around yourself” again. I know for me one answer is meditation & grounding.  When you allow yourself the space to sit quietly behind your eyes, connect with the planet and let go of the “chatter” you will begin to find the glory that is you. When I teach simple meditation techniques it’s amazing to watch the students as they begin to release and be in a place of *BE*ING not *DO*ING.  As a clairvoyant I see each person connecting with themselves on a deeper level and discovering their own light. When this happens even the room gets brighter!

The amazing thing about clearing out and getting your own space back is what you might find! Here is a great example in simple everyday life terms: A friend of mine was just telling me that she & her husband cleaned out their basement of all the boxes that were piled there. She mentioned that she couldn’t believe the “stuff” that had been sitting in those unopened boxes for years…a lot of which hadn’t even been unpacked since her move back from Hawaii several years ago! As she unpacked the boxes, she began to discover pieces of herself…in her words “things I totally forgot about but that I LOVE”.  As she was describing this to me I could hear the joy & happiness in her voice of having re-discovered parts of HER! She was not only clearing out and re-owning her basement (space) but finding the joy of those parts of her she had forgotten about while in the midst of busy every day life. 

Thus it is the same with your spiritual space! The next time you feel like you aren’t quite YOU why not take a moment to reconnect with yourself, clear out the clutter and dust off your aura! You never know which parts of YOU that may have  been “forgotten”, packed away or covered up by other energies that could show up, bring a smile to your face and joy to your heart! SO THANKS MOM! Cleaning IS good for SPIRIT & SOUL!

SIMON SAYS! WHO IS ‘SIMON’ ANYWAY?

Remember the game “Simon Says” from when you were a child? Follow these steps just for fun!  Come on it’s just a game:-) Simon says raise your left hand. Simon says put your hands on your hips. Simon says touch your toes. Simon says touch your nose.  Simon says clap your hands. Simon says blink your eyes. Touch your head. Simon says wiggle your toes. Simon says “say HOORAH!” Wasn’t that fun?! :-) Did you do everything Simon said? Maybe you found it silly or perhaps it made you smile to think of how it fun it was when you were little!

Now let me ask you something….did you touch your head? Did Simon say to do it? Of course if you didn’t touch your head OK, you know the game! If you did touch your head, well it’s just a game isn’t it? Or is it? Practically from the time you are born you are “taught” to follow the rules, do what you’re told, mind your manners, don’t speak until you are spoken to etc.  You have to ask permission to do something or someone has to tell you to do it before you do.  Now of course, this is good for children but what happens when that energy carries over to your adult life?

The game Simon Says is actually a good example of programming and how it can control YOU. Simon, the control, tells you to do something and you do it. If Simon doesn’t say it…well, YOU LOST. You failed! You’re out of the game! No one WANTS to lose and not be a part of the game anymore! After all, your FRIENDS are still playing and YOU lost! Early on you figure out that the next time you play the game, all you have to do is make sure that you don’t do ANYTHING unless Simon Says you should do it.

Do you or did you have a “Simon” in your life? Are you waiting for Simon to say you can DO something? Or the flip side….are you spending so much time responding to all the rules and responsibility heaped upon you that you forget about creating your dream? Do you have a passion for something but find yourself waiting until….(you fill in the rest there)? Did someone at some point in your life tell you “YOU CAN’T DO THAT”? Are you waiting to be validated for your brilliant idea before you move forward with it? More importantly did you follow someone else’s “rules” about how your life should be up to this point?

Perhaps you answered “yes” to one or more of those questions. Well, I don’t know who Simon is but from a clairvoyant perspective I see controls and programming at work all the time. Many of the people I read are living their lives as “they are supposed to”.  Think about it this way, did anyone ever say to you “you’re out of control!” Now I ask you whose control are you out of? Can you imagine how my parents would have reacted if I responded to the question “what do you want to be when you grow up?” with “I WANT TO BE A CLARIVOYANT HEALER!” Call me kooky but I’m pretty much thinking that might not have gone over too well!

When you become aware of and release the “Simon says” pictures that are indeed a part of all of us, you begin to heal the part of you that stops you from being who you truly are. The more of your own energy you bring in, and the more you focus on your own dreams….the more can create!

A wonderful friend of mine, Hemal Radia, Manifesting &  Law of Attraction,  has written this lovely quote “When we are doing what we are doing for the love of doing it, very present moment oriented, we are creating magic.” There’s a lot of truth in those words. When you become your own “Simon”, you can create your own magic! Follow your dreams & passions and come alive with the possibilities! Do what you love for the love of doing it, not because it’s what you “should” do. There is no time like the present to take a moment, look inside yourself and find your magic! If you’re having a challenge with this…I’ll help you out:-) SIMON SAYS FIND YOUR MAGIC!

FEAR NOT…TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH AND TRUST YOURSELF!

In recent weeks I’ve had the opportunity to look at fear. It’s not that difficult in this economy as so many people are afraid of losing their jobs, homes, businesses. There is fear of the unknown, fear of making the wrong decision, fear of being alone, fear of being IN a relationship, fear of change… One can even be afraid of success! I’m sure you get the idea. Many people don’t even know they are living with and focusing on fear.  I know and have read many very capable, SELF AWARE people who in some area of thier life,  are living from a place of fear and they don’t even realise it.

You could be in toxic relationship for fear of being alone. Stay in the same job you hate out of fear you can’t create a new opportunity. You might not allow a relationship to flourish or take a step (make a change) toward something (or someone) as it’s SAFER to continue on the same path. You might be afraid to venture out to a new place, discover a wonderful new activity or meet new people and make NEW beautiful friends.

If the sun was afraid of the storms, we wouldn’t have rainbows! If the rainbow was afraid of the clouds it wouldn’t shine it’s multitude of light prisms arched along the sky, proud and colorful! OK that’s a stretch but think about it for a moment…Who knows better than YOU what’s right for YOU? What step would you like to take that might be controlled by some underlying fear? Is there something you’d like to create but are afraid it (or YOU) will be rejected or might, dare I say, fail? Could there be a time in your life when you got hurt and there’s a fear that if you take a particular step it might happen again? What would you do if you actually succeeded in the thing you desire most? Think for a moment about what it is your heart truly desires and notice if any fear about it comes up. Sometimes I sense  a little voice that says “oh, you can’t do THAT!”

In his inaugural speech FDR said “the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.” I don’t know about you but I find truth in these words. When you are in fear you retreat or hide and in many ways it can stop your growth or colour your decisions.

So what is this thing called fear anyway? Fear is an ENERGY! I suppose I should begin by mentioning that there IS fear related to REAL danger with regards to your survival. It’s the picture that says “RUN! THE LION CHASING YOU IS GOING TO EAT YOU!” Now that kind of fear sets you to running. It is your body’s natural fight or flight response and rightly so…it’s called survival! However since you aren’t going to get eaten by a lion in the near future, at least one would hope not, I’m talking about the ENERGY of fear.  The interesting thing is that  the energy of fear can produce the same reaction!

In a clairvoyant reading I see the energy of fear as a reaction to some already present form of invalidation, programming or pain you haven’t let go of. It can even be SOMEONE ELSE’S ENERGY (fear) IN YOUR SPACE.  The “why is it there”  is completely different for each individual as each person is not working on the same thing BUT the bottom line is; When these pictures or energies are stimulated, fear takes over and they can become your TRUTH and get in the way of your decisions. Fear pictures challenge your SAFETY and ability to TRUST yourself! You might find yourself running for your life or unable to “advance” as a wise FDR once said.

At this point you may be asking “so what do I do about it?”  You can CLEAR IT!   I teach a wonderful meditation technique called grounding.  It is a simple yet powerful tool for clearing energy. Grounding makes the body SAFE and when your body feels safe you can begin to release and clear all that is not YOU. If you are not familiar with grounding, creating intent and focus on clearing while in meditation can work as well. Then fill up and vibrate your entire being with what it is YOU want! Once you’ve cleared, you have the space to TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH (in yourself) and move forward again!

When you are grounded, you are not only SAFE  you are able to clear. When you clear you can then begin to vibrate more in alignment with who you are and your own truth. As you move forward again, you begin to TRUST yourself more and more! The more trust in your ability to create your hearts desire the closer you will be to receiving what you want! Allow your own, personal rainbow of light to shine through the clouds:-) FEAR NOT! “THE ONLY THING TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF!”

You had me at HELLO!

HELLO! Greetings and salutations! Hey! Hi! Howdy and Hello! What simple, yet powerful words these can be! How can a simple “hello” be powerful you may ask? The answer is that a hello acknowledges and validates the very existence of another human being! We are all spiritual beings having a human experience. We are living in a time of wonderful transformation yet in my readings and indeed in my daily life, I see people are literally craving a very simple concept. A spirit to spirit hello.

Have you ever felt invisible? I remember as a child I felt that way many times.  It seemed as if adults were talking and I wasn’t even there. There were times I was in a room and not even acknowledged. You’ve heard the saying “children should be seen and not heard” but I felt like I wasn’t being seen either. It’s been many years since I’ve felt  invisible. In fact I haven’t even thought about it since taking my very first meditation class in the early ’90’s. That is, until last week….

Last week I woke up a bit out of sorts. I wasn’t quite feeling ‘in my body’ and real. Normally I go out for a run to get in my body. (Exercise is a great way to feel your body.) When I finished I went to Starbucks as usual. I look forward to seeing the baristas and no matter my mood, for some reason I feel better when I leave. They always say good morning, ask me how the run was, how far, how’s work going.  They smile, look me in the eye and always greet me and acknowledge my presence…not to mention they know my coffee order.  Anyway, you get the picture.

Normally my Starbucks is a buzz of communication. However on this day as I looked around me I noticed that no one was smiling or looking at anyone else. People were listening to Ipods, working on computers, talking on cell phones, reading the newspaper. For the most part it was as if people weren’t aware of the others in the room. Other than a few tables of people actually talking with each other, NO ONE was interacting! I was in a room full of people and felt totally alone. I watched as customer after customer placed their orders never noticing or acknowledging the person taking their order. Some barely paused their cell phone conversation to place their order. 

I was standing at the counter and placing my order when a man walked up behind me began to give his order. I was in mid sentence with the barista who was looking directly at ME. When I turned around and said hello to this man his response was “oh, sorry I didn’t see you there”. I was standing right in front of him!  As I continued looking around it was as if I was watching a scene in a play from the audience. For the first time since I was a child, I felt invisible!

Then something miraculous happened. Walking home,coffee in hand kind of feeling sorry for myself in that invisible mode, a complete stranger looked me in the eye, smiled and said HELLO. A simple hello instantly changed me from being invisible to being SEEN! This immediately brought a smile to my face. Then the homeless person on the corner said good morning. I looked her in the eye smiled and replied “good morning”…then SHE smiled. I watched her aura get brighter the moment I looked her in the eye! When I give a clairvoyant reading, I can clearly see the impact of spirit to spirit communication. The person I’m reading gets validated by communication to their spirit and of course I find my validation from seeing them get brighter! What I learned on this particular day was how a simple smile, good morning & hello can have an impact on your life.

So how can you give and receive spirit to spirit communication? Well, of course you can get a clairvoyant reading  but in the meanwhile, you can  practice this in your everyday life! Think of it as a little game of playing with energy. The essence of spirit is playful so this shouldn’t be so hard to do. When you go out into the world today, put on a smile, look someone in the eye and say HELLO. Do this with strangers, the homeless person on the street, your neighbors and even the grocery store check out person! Don’t just merely pause your cell phone conversation to place an order at Starbucks…or where ever. Notice what happens when you do this! The simple act of saying hello can change a grimace to a smile, make a sad person feel better,  perhaps give someone hope, or validate the beautiful existence of spirit in someone who feels invisible! You may be surprised at what you get back!  I guarantee as you notice the reaction you receive, it will brighten your day and validate you in spirit as well! I welcome you to post your comments about what YOUR experience was! HELLO!

CREATING

Have you ever noticed how much responding we do these days? We respond to our cell phone, text messages, emails, facebook, family, friends, work. We have schedules that if you take a moment to think about them are all in one way or another responding to others. It is considered part of daily life to have obligations that must be met and so we respond. But what happened to CREATING? What are YOU creating? Is your life being dictated by always responding or are you creating and living your dream? You are a creator by design. You have the ability and capability for limitless creation!

A few weeks ago I had an interesting job opportunity present itself. Truth be told it would have been a pretty good opportunity and something I thought I needed. I was really struggling with even submitting an application. At the time, I wasn’t sure why it was so difficult for me to jump on board. I grounded, centered, meditated, cleared the energy around it but something just didn’t feel right. I wasn’t in alignment. So I called a friend to help me sort it out :-) In our conversation we talked about passion, creating and nurturing the soul. That’s when it became clear to me what didn’t feel right. It wasn’t MY path to walk! It was not my truth nor was it what I wanted. Although I created the opportunity coming to me, I was merely responding to the opportunity from a place of “need” and it would not have been the right choice for me. Of course I then began to look at my own creative energy. What is it that I WANT TO CREATE? What is MY PASSION? What do I LOVE? What do I want will nurture my very spirit and soul? It was then that I realized I had been spending most of my time responding to the external instead of creating what I wanted!

As a clairvoyant, I delight in seeing where and what you are CREATING. It reminds me that we are all creators. It’s amazing to me how much energy or pictures are that of RESPONDING. Like a veil, the energy covers up what it is you really want. Sometimes I see the energy of what you SHOULD be doing, or what you are expected to do and the energy I see is just that….ENERGY. To be clear about this, ENERGY THAT IS NOT YOU!  It can be in the form of pictures or programming, it can be energy you have collected up from others. Whatever it is for you, it may stop you from creating altogether! You may spend so much of your time responding that you forget, in a sense, who you are and what YOU want.

When I read I see your spirit, your very essence. I look at what you are creating and begin to acknowledge who you really are. When the creator part of you is acknowledged it’s as if the fog and veils lift! What you want to create for yourself begins to glow and expand. It is light & bright and THIS acknowledgement validates your spirit! So I ask you now to take a moment, center yourself and look inside. Are you creating from a place of all that you are? All you are capable of? Are you nurturing and feeding your spirit by following what’s in your heart and soul? If you find you have been spending your time responding, it’s simple to change, just find the spark that is YOU! Begin thinking of all that YOU want to create in your life and grow that spark! Expand and surround yourself with all that you are. YOU HAVE THE ABILITY AND CAPABILITY FOR LIMITLESS CREATION! GO FOR IT!

A Lesson from my Souls…Letting Go

Letting Go

I’m calling this post Lessons from the souls. You’ll see why as you read! It’s about letting go. In several of my clairvoyant readings I’ve noticed how what we hold on to can get in the way of bringing in what we really want in our lives. I see this and hear it from people every day. Before I begin my story, I’ll just ask you to think about a few things….Have you ever held on to something well past its usefulness? This can be a thing, an energy, a thought, a person, a relationship or even lie that you’ve held on to for so long that it became a truth. Think about it. I’ll bet there’s something you can think of! Now I’ll tell you about an experience I had that goes directly to the point…and it’s literally what I’ve learned from my souls!

I am a runner training for a 1/2 marathon. Bet you didn’t see that coming! Read on You may not know that you need to change your running shoes at about 500 miles or every 6 months give or take. Due to economic circumstances (or perhaps not as you’ll see) I’ve been unable (or for some reason unwilling) to purchase a new pair and have been running in the same shoes since last December. They have about 1000 miles on them, no support, no cushion…in effect, they are ‘dead’. I’ve worn them long past their point of being useful. For the last few weeks when I would get up to run  I found myself  in total resistance to running. Probably due to  having been in physical pain every time ran in those shoes. The pain wasn’t only  during the run but afterwards for another day! Since my race is coming up in early August, last weekend I was facing a 12 mile run and just could NOT run in my old running shoes. I made a decision to run in another pair of athletic shoes  that are much too heavy and bulky for a long run, yet very stable with good support. I knew my legs would tire faster but I was determined to complete my training run. In essence, I needed to let go of my old running shoes, take a leap of faith and hope for the best!

I began to run and I immediately noticed NO PAIN! As I continued I started to think about why I hadn’t let go of the other shoes. It dawned on me that they were a gift from someone very dear to my heart. Someone who is still very dear to my heart but no longer in my life in the same way as when he gave me the gift. I realized that I was still holding on to the pain of the relationship along with those shoes.  I knew I needed to let go.

As I allowed myself to let go a wonderful thing happened. I began to notice the beauty of the sun shining on the lake, I took a different running route and discovered a butterfly and bird sanctuary, newly (spring) planted prairie grass, the sun shining through the trees! I realized that in all my previous long runs, always taking the same route, I hadn’t noticed any of it!

Later on that day I also took a new direction and instead of going to the local running store to get my shoes, checked another store that is not known for selling running shoes. I had to laugh! Not only did they have my shoes but THEY WERE ON SALE and so discounted that I bought 2 pair!   By letting go I now had the space to go in a new direction and bring those other things into my awareness instead being in physical pain from running or the emotional pain from a relationship that had changed. I literally learned from my souls how holding on to pain can effect everything you do!

Perhaps while reading my story you were also thinking about something you are going through in your life. Something you are not letting go of or holding on to well past it’s point of usefulness. It could be an old energy, painful memory, circumstance, an old or current relationship, or possibly even grief. If  what you are holding on for whatever the reason no longer brings you joy, you are not learning, growing and creating ….Whatever it is it may be the perfect time to LET IT GO! Honor what you learned from the experience. You can’t change the past but you CAN let go and create the space to bring something new and wonderful into your awareness and your life!
