So often in this life things happen that are beyond our control. It is times like these that you have to look at that proverbial ‘silver lining’ and take a moment to stop and count your blessings.

Your husband leaves you after cheating on you for ten years. Legal issues aside, you may cry because you are alone, but are you really? The blessing in this case is clear – you lost a cheating husband and gained your life back! It may not seem like it right away but it will one day.

Your girlfriend decided that she wants to “test the waters and keep her options open”. Do you cry and moan, or do you count the many possible blessings here? Do you really want to make her your priority in life, while you are merely an “option” to her? Read more »

I have a place within where I go every day to open myself up to receiving and accepting abundance. Notice, I suggested not only receiving but having a willingness to accept anything is of key importance.

I discovered I had no trouble being open and willing to receive, or at least I thought this to be true, until I discovered there is more to it than just being open and willing! I discovered it often takes great courage to accept. More importantly, accepting help of any kind from another appears to be much harder than often times believed.

I always thought it much easier to pray my way through my desires and needs. After all, the entire universe is a huge, relatively unknown place and I believed that praying to it would get me what I asked for. So, why not ask the unknown. It certainly beats playing the lottery, and it is definitely a great deal easier than asking a stranger, friend, co-worker or relative! Read more »

So, let’s try a different attitude just for today – just so we can experience what it’s like to exist on a higher spiritual frequency and how good it feels to be connected to Source, Higher Intelligence, the Divine.

To help bring yourself into spiritual alignment and to be a healthier human being, both mentally and psychically, try and let go of analyzing and evaluating others. The only reason why we do this is because we are trying to cover up the misalignments in our own life.

When we judge we are essentially allowing ourselves to cruise through life on low, shallow altitudes. Hence we hinder our soul from achieving wonderful growth. Some of the unhealthiest people I know judge and constantly feel the need to analyze and pass judgment on others, and what is worse they often judge themselves much more severely! I mean, if you can’t see it in their aura, you can definitely see it in their face. The eyes are indeed the windows to the soul. Read more »

Every day we make choices. Sometimes if we stop and look at those choices, it will give us a good indication of our patterns. For example, we say we want to be happy, but do we then make choices that will bring us happiness during the day a priority?

Perhaps we say we want this or that, but then we put it last on the list for the day, or don’t put it on the list at all. We can choose serenity over a boyfriend or girlfriend. We can choose peacefulness over fussing and fretting. We can choose quality time with our child rather than going out drinking. So sometimes, we are our own worst enemy with the choices we make each day. Often we do not see the patterns of our choices, and we cannot change something we do not see. This is when self-awareness must be developed.  Read more »

As a Reiki practitioner I find that using crystals is very beneficial both to me and my clients. There are seven main crystals that I use both to heal my clients and for my own benefit as well.

One of the crystals I use often is blue calcite. Blue calcite is one of the most soothing stones for the emotional body. Blue calcite is also known to lower blood pressure and dissolve pain on all levels.

Blue calcite stimulates creativity, inspiration and is very useful in overcoming writer’s block. It also enhances dreaming and is a gentle stone for both recuperation and relaxation.

Blue Calcite can also lower anxiety, calm nerves, and release negative emotions. It also helps to remove blockages from the third eye and stimulates ones intuitive and psychic abilities. It also soothes the throat chakra in order to promote clear and positive communication and speech. Read more »

You are not who you think you are. You are not that face you see in the mirror every morning. You are not someone’s child, or someone’s parent, or partner or friend. You are not the physical body you admire or criticize when you take a shower, or when you get dressed.

Neither are you the profile description on your social networking page, or your high school diploma, your driver’s license, or your title at work. You are not defined by your career, or the things you own, or the family and friends you love. You are not a name or an address, or a six-figure salary.

You are one thing only. You are a Divine Being. An all-powerful Creator. You are a Deity in jeans and a t-shirt, and within you dwells the infinite wisdom of the ages and the sacred creative force of All that is, will be and ever was. Read more »

Over the years several people have asked me if psychics are born, or if you can learn to be a psychic. In my opinion, the answer is that a person can fine tune psychic abilities by working hard both to learn and to understand what is being said, but in general, the abilities show up early in life and are either encouraged or squelched.

When a child is fortunate enough to have a parent or parents who are psychic, the child is vastly more likely to have a tendency to also be psychic and to gain parental approval for reporting what is seen. Children also have less ‘noise’ distracting them or social ‘filters’ repressing them. Therefore, children say what they see, without editing for acceptance. However, what they say may be very hard to understand. That is where ‘working hard’ comes in.  Children with psychic abilities typically lack the ability to easily translate what is seen or heard into a message that is easily understood by the person the message is intended for. That is where both maturing and training to enhance clairvoyant abilities begins. Read more »
