Grief is a normal, universally-felt reaction to any type of loss – love, child, friend, job, pet, even inanimate things like a home. Grief is a profound sadness that takes over our daily lives and thoughts and causes us to muddle through, numbed to experiences we once enjoyed. We ask ourselves what we could have done differently. We cry. We get angry. And sometimes we feel guilty.

I’d like to share with you some of what I’ve learned about the process of grieving. Yes, grieving is a process consisting of several phases and ultimately – resolution or acceptance. You can and will get through your loss, and once again free your mind to enjoy life again. It will be different, yes. But it will be good.

Have faith that this too shall pass. Our hearts are big enough for many loves, and what was once grief can be now turned into fond memories. Grieving is an individual process and moving through the process is personal. The process can take a year or it can take a month. Read the rest of this entry »

My best times are those in which everything seems right with the world. I notice my surroundings and see details that I’ve never noticed before. I see each day as a new opportunity. I am optimistic. I am happy. I am cheerful. I am going with the flow, knowing that it will take me to my goals.

All of us have also had periodic episodes of that ‘all is not well’ feeling. But what if you could replace the worry, depression, doubt and fear with a true belief that a better outcome is available?

By becoming alert to Universal energy, you realize that there is always a flow between you and the objects of your worry and doubt (or your joy and happiness). It works like a fire. If you cut off the oxygen supply, the fire will die. The energy has stopped flowing. But, if you feed the fire with oxygen (energy), it will continue to burn until other conditions come into play.

I was recently impressed by a friend’s ability to write 100 things about herself that she knew to be true, and put it on the Internet – for all to see! As I read and re-read what she had written, I thought, she really knows herself very well! And then I wondered: do I know 100 things about myself?

So I set out writing a list, and found that who I am retro-fit into the men I chose, the places I’ve lived and to the experiences I have. I uncovered my Truth.

By doing this little exercise, I was elated to realize that I re-connected with my essence, my soul. I make better choices now. There are moments of bliss, like those that occur through meditation. I also discovered the uniqueness and strengths of my Being. By consciously committing who I am to paper, I had a greater sense of myself and the universe I felt within. Read the rest of this entry »

At one time or another, each of us has had the feeling that what we are saying or doing has been said or done before. The feeling is fleeting; it comes and then it goes just as quickly. Most typically, we write it off as déjà vu, which is the French for ‘already seen’ or ‘seen before’.

You may also have experienced déjà visité, which means literally ‘already visited’. It refers to the sensation of being in a place and then having the sudden, fleeting feeling that you’ve already been there, although you know that you have not.

Depending upon one’s perspective, déjà vu and déjà visité are explained by doctors and neurologists as a function of brain processing, while psychoanalysts view it as an unconscious desire or a premonition. Spiritualists, however, believe it is a fleeting memory from a past life experience. As a result of my personal experience with healing past lives, my vote is definitely with the spiritualists.

Recently, a client dropped into my free chat room at PsychicAccess.com. Even before she typed anything, I could feel that her energy had shifted from the last time we had a chat.

After a few moments of catching up with each other, I told her that I felt her energy as very upbeat and happy. I sensed a kind of complete, all-over happiness. I asked her if anything special was going on. Her answer was, “I chose happiness.”

Wow! I was gob-smacked! The utter simplicity of that statement, the conviction of it, was definite. Even I felt happy. It seemed that happiness was contagious. I’m writing about the kind of happiness that comes from within, no matter what the external circumstances. Happiness does not have to be a transient state. We can experience it 24/7, and learn to maintain that internal happiness, while still experiencing the ups and downs of daily life. Read the rest of this entry »

Inherent to all humans, we sometimes experience blockages, or feel stuck in our lives. What causes these blockages, or short-circuits? Why do we have those times when we seem unable to get started on a project, or clearly think through a situation to determine a course of action? We feel like a writer, staring at a blank piece of paper, or an artist staring at a blank canvas.

Looking at my own experiences, and those of my clients, I see the common thread: we have lost touch with our intuition, our higher selves. We may develop diversion feelings, such as fear, anger, self-pity, procrastination, anxiety, negativity and sadness, or even panic. Or we blame ourselves, lowering our self-esteem, which further entrenches the blockage. If continued, this behavior becomes a never-ending cycle, making any movement forward even more daunting.

So, how do we turn the situation around? How do we move forward, like an army of one breaking through the blockage? How do we get in touch again with our intuitive selves? How do we change these patterns? Read the rest of this entry »

Why do we call multiple psychics for re-confirmation? What have we told ourselves in our ruminations? Have we been filling up our minds with self-doubt and mistrust? When they are receptive, I talk to my clients about being in the moment, and not creating a false reality in their own mind.

Living in the ‘now’ is one of the most powerful things one can achieve in your personal spiritual growth, but it remains out of reach for many. Our minds are always churning with lists of things to do.

We experience constant worry and anxiety, and we attribute reasons to the unreasonable, in our attempt to try and answer the question, why? We have so much judgment, self-righteousness and negativity. We create unnecessary problems for ourselves. Thoughts become actions, and we act on what we have told ourselves over and over again. Most of the trouble we bring upon ourselves originates in our own minds, and we bring that heavy load to our relationships and our interactions with other people. Read the rest of this entry »
