YOU ARE IMPORTANT AND YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW!

Let’s get one thing straight - Every person is important. It doesn’t matter if you are living on the street or the president of the United States. What you do and say can change to world. We are all part of a grander scheme. We all have our own unique role to play in life. Like pebbles thrown into a pond, every action has its effect. You can use your time here far more effectively if you take the time to be aware. 

Pay attention to the way other people affect you. Why does it annoy you so when a car cuts in front of you and then slows down? Examine your own reactions to what is happening around you. Become an objective observer and see if there’s a way to change your perspective on the situation. For instance, when that car slowed down in front of you, did you notice the speed trap? We don’t always see why something happens, be grateful for it anyway.

But what can I do? Stop whining and acting as if life is happening to you for starters… Yeah, I said it.

Stop making excuses and start changing the world! 

ALWAYS REMEMBER - Excuses are the nails that build houses of failure.

Moving to the Sounds of Spirit - Knowing When Spirit Speaks

How do we know when we are truly moving to the sound of Spirit? How do you know the difference between your own thoughts and feelings and the messages sent by Spirit? Where does your Intuition reside?

The Voice of Spirit is persistent and firm. It is loving and compassionate. When trying to discern between Spirit and Self one must learn to be aware of their physical body. I find that Spirit's voice is usually distinct, but then again, that's what I do for a living.

When my students and clients ask about this clarity and how I can tell it is Spirit speaking vs my own thoughts, I give them some simple guidelines to listening to Spirit. The easiest way to tell is by paying attention to your physical reaction.

Think of your question. For example: Should I take the job offer? Take a couple deep breaths. Then imagine yourself in that position, in the office, working with those people.  Now be aware of your physical response, particularly your solar plexus. [Your solar plexus is located below your rib cage at the top of your stomach] This is the area you are referring to when you talk about a gut feeling. Is this area tight? Does it feel like it is being pulled towards your back? This type of reaction indicates a big NO. It may even signify danger. On the other hand, if this area is relaxed and feels warm, you have a positive response. It may even feel pulled outward, towards the object/situation in question. This is a very positive response.

For more detailed answers you may need to develop your intuitive skills. For that, you may need a bit more instruction. Maybe a class? Contact me for more information...

Choosing a Psychic

Choosing a Psychic

<> Selecting the right psychic is much like choosing a doctor. You need to find someone who is good at what they do, empathetic, caring and professional. Ultimately it comes down to your own personal preference. You need to feel comfortable with and have some confidence in whoever you choose.

<>Just as each doctor has a different bedside manner, each psychic practitioner has a different style. Not only that, the variety of modalities seems endless. There are so many ways to open your Intuition and receive the information that I would need to write a book to simply scratch the surface. However, there are a few basic queues to look for regardless of your preference.

<>In all professions you will find a wide range of people; those that simply do it for the money, the charlatans, the honest, the ethical and the professional, among others. So what should you look for? What should clue you in that the person you’re dealing with isn’t totally above board?

<>Observe the practitioner when they are doing a reading. Do they really listen? Do they seem sincere? Are they more concerned with the time limit and the money than they are with your welfare? Will they simply leave you crying when your time is up, or do they guide you back to a better place?

<>The question is what kind of state they leave you in. Are they being comforting? If you come across a painful experience, can they help you through it? Having someone see who you really are behind your everyday façade can be a very moving experience. There are times when you will walk away from a reading with tears in your eyes. A good cry is a healthy outlet for your emotions. It can be very cleansing.

<>Also, you need to remember that we all relate to information through our own filters; our past, our environment, our beliefs, etc. This is a natural human trait. Be aware of that when having a reading. For example, when I was pregnant with my daughter I had several readings; more for advice on my relationship with her father than anything else. A psychic actually suggested I have an abortion, seeing my relationship as basically over. She was so afraid of single motherhood that she could not even conceive of it. She was sincere and trying to be helpful, but that was not good advice for me.

<>The only way to discover some of these things is to experience them. But, referrals can help. What kinds of things are said about the person? No one is going to be universally adored, so don’t write someone off because you hear of one bad experience. We all have bad days; maybe that was one of them. Or the person giving their opinion may not have liked what they were told because it was not what they wanted to hear. I could tell you stories…

<>There are definite things that should raise red flags for you. You need to be wary of psychics who speak in absolutes. Anyone who claims 100% accuracy is a liar. Scientific studies have shown that even the best of us have 78% to 85% accuracy. A normal person usually rates a 30%.

Be careful of practitioners who throw the word evil around. It is a very powerful word and most of us do not use it lightly. Everyone’s heard stories about the kind of psychic who sees evil around you that must be removed, or you will be in great peril and your situation will only worsen. These practitioners will require that you pay them copious amounts of money to remove it. They will usually have you come back for several sessions.

<>Another variation on this is the psychic who tries to ride your coattails to success. I once had to deal with a psychic who would insert herself into your reading if she saw any kind of success for you. <>

What is sad about this type of fraud is that I have found many of these types to actually be accurate and gifted psychics. I don’t understand the greed and lust for power which accompanies this type of behavior. <>Basically, THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING. Even Jesus said [Matthew 7:15] “Be on your guard against false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but underneath are wolves on the prowl. You will know them by their deeds.” <>
How do you feel after a reading? Was it uplifting and helpful, or did it foster fear? <>

Very little of what happens to you is unavoidable. You need to take responsibility for your own future. Our purpose is to give you an idea of the landscape; you need to decide how you will navigate it. Blessings.
