Spirit’s Three-Step Remedy For The Scattered Mind
I love to meditate. It’s my sacred coffee break with the cosmos — the moment when I trade phone pings and to-do lists for the whispers of spirit and the soothing hum of the universe.
Before every session, I set an intention. Usually it is a question I’d like spirit to answer. I think of it as sending a “text message” to the divine and waiting, phone in hand, for the soft chime of truth.
Today’s intention led me straight to the heart of a puzzle that troubles many parents, teachers, and sensitive individuals: Why does Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) seem to be skyrocketing in society?
In classrooms, offices, and even yoga studios, more of us are struggling with scattered focus and mental fatigue. Studies now suggest that our screen-filled, high-pressure lives may be pushing hidden attention problems into a full-blown pandemic.
I felt compelled to ask, “Is there more to the story than brain chemistry and prescription medication?”
After a longer than usual session, I emerged with a couple of journal pages full of insights that felt refreshingly simple, yet profoundly wise.
The first thing I saw in my meditation was a vision of life in the pre-internet age before we had smartphones.
I saw in my mind’s eye neighbors chatting on porches, children riding their bikes in the street until dinnertime, and evenings lit by conversation instead of blue screens. The pace was slower, and people’s nervous systems were calmer.
From Resentment To Radiance: The Power Of Forgiveness
As a Kundalini yoga instructor, I’ve come to understand forgiveness as much more than just an act of kindness or compassion. It is a sacred healing practice — an essential release and transmutation of toxic energy held within the subtle body.
My work as a Reiki healer and psychic reader has deepened my understanding of this concept. I’ve witnessed firsthand how unresolved emotional pain, bitterness and resentment can create stagnation in our energetic pathways, dimming our vitality and obstructing our intuitive abilities.
In both healing sessions and psychic readings, I’ve seen forgiveness spark remarkable shifts in people’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
In the Kundalini Yoga tradition, forgiveness is not merely a moral ideal. It is a profound energetic cleanse. When we cling to resentment, anger, or betrayal, we create dense energy imprints, or emotional residue, in our aura and chakras, especially around the heart center (Anahata). These blockages disrupt pranic flow, dull intuitive perception, and limit our capacity to experience divine love.
My yoga teacher, Yogi Bhajan, often reminded us that the fastest route to healing and happiness is to forgive completely and limitlessly. He taught that true forgiveness requires releasing the subconscious “recordings” and emotional patterns etched into both hemispheres of the brain — patterns that replay pain and perpetuate karmic loops. “Forgive, release, learn, love, and excel,” he would say.

Start Your Day With An Empowering Rune Meditation
The runes may hail from a distant past, but their wisdom is timeless.
Originally carved into stone and wood by the Germanic and Norse peoples over a thousand years ago, runes are much more than an archaic writing system. They are sacred symbols, each representing archetypal truths, elemental forces, and spiritual awareness.
Warriors, healers, seers, and travelers carried these symbols as talismans to protect themselves, receive guidance, and connect with the unseen energies of life.
In a world dominated by fleeting digital messages and materialistic values, the ancient Nordic runes still whisper their ancestral wisdom across the millennia.
They are energetic sigils—mystical symbols designed to invoke change, inspire clarity, and restore harmony with the cycles of nature and spirit.
Each rune pulses with a unique frequency—a metaphysical code capable of unlocking personal insight, inner strength, and spiritual transformation. Etched into stone by hands long vanished, the runes carry the weight of sacred intention.
They remind us that language and symbolism are instruments of creative power, not just tools for communication. Integrating runes into our modern lives reconnects us with an ancient way of knowing that speaks of path, purpose, and destiny.
How Mudras Connect Mind, Body and Soul
Have you ever wondered why some people hold their fingers in unusual positions while meditating?
These sacred hand gestures, known as mudras, are not just meant to “look cool” — they are a powerful energetic practice rooted in ancient spiritual traditions. They are intentional postures designed to channel energy, focus the mind, and deepen spiritual connection.
Mudras are an integral part of many spiritual lineages, most notably Kundalini Yoga – an energetic healing science that dates back thousands of years – as well as Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, classical Indian dance, and yogic disciplines.
Its origins can be traced back to the Vedas, the oldest sacred texts of Hinduism, where mudras were used in rituals to invoke divine blessings and spiritual power.
Over the centuries, these gestures have evolved into essential tools within yoga, tantra, and meditation practices. Their purpose: to help the practitioner direct subtle energies, sharpen awareness, and align with a higher consciousness.
In Sanskrit, mudra means “seal,” “sign,” or “gesture.” Far from mere physical postures, these gestures connect body, mind, and spirit, forming an energetic circuit that speaks directly to our auric field. Each mudra is a subtle energetic signal – each finger position resonating with specific astrological influences, emotional states, and elemental energies.
While some mudras involve the entire body, most are performed with the hands and fingers. Their effects are both profound and practical, enhancing spiritual practice, supporting healing, and facilitating the flow of life-force energy (prana or chi) through the body.
The Divine Path Back To Unconditional Love
Recently, I was meditating on a deeply personal situation — one that stirred up waves of anger and resentment, even bordering on hatred and bitterness. Then I received an insight from spirit that stopped me in my tracks. It was one of those profound moments when time stands still and sacred truth illuminates your heart.
“Never forget the Golden Rule,” spirit said. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Do not do to others what you do not want done to you. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
Suddenly I realized that the deeper truth of holding unconditional love in your heart. It’s a universal spiritual principle because it works both ways! You would never, ever want the same hatred or anger that you direct at others, to be directed at you.
Now let me be honest. My anger this time wasn’t just outward to others. It also turned inward. It was a growing dark, toxic presence in my heart and mind.
Life has been hard lately. Too many people I know have died far too young. Watching my beloved partner in a so-called “medical facility” that should not be allowed to take care of anyone, especially our elders. Almost losing him. Being emotionally and financially drained by someone I trusted. The exhausting noise of political chaos.
It has been one thing after another, piling up until I reached a boiling point. I began to ask the big, painful question: Why? Why all this suffering? Why now? Why me? And I wasn’t just angry at the world — I was angry at myself. Angry at Source, Spirit, God. Angry at the seeming cruelty of it all.
Living In A State Of Transcendence
Many people may claim to live in a state of spiritual enlightenment, to be fully aware and to have a deep connection with the divine. However, what many believe to be enlightenment is often far from the truth.
There is a veil — a mental barrier — before most people that prevents them from seeing the greater spiritual truths that lie beyond the ordinary world. Although many people long to lift this veil, to look beyond the surface and access a more expansive reality, it can be incredibly difficult to reach this state of bliss.
However, once you do break through, the liberation and freedom you feel is incomparable. It’s a feeling that is difficult to describe with words, but it’s something that everyone is capable of experiencing.
The path to transcendence is a path of spiritual growth and soul evolution. When you reach this blissful state — when your soul has truly expanded — you move to a higher frequency, one that is different from the frequency to which most people are attuned.
For much of my life, I felt like a misfit — a person who didn’t quite fit into the mainstream world. I felt disconnected from social norms and expectations. But today, I embrace that feeling. I’ve come to realize that being an individual, separate from the chaos of the world, is one of the greatest gifts I could have. I no longer need to be part of a particular group or adhere to a particular set of societal standards. This freedom allows me to live authentically and to help others reach the same state of bliss and spiritual awareness.
Asking The Angels For Everyday Guidance
Since a very profound experience of angelic visitation at the age of nine, I have regularly called upon the angels for guidance and protection in my daily life.
I do this for a reason. I have learned over the years that it is necessary to take the initiative to ask for and invoke their help, because they will never interfere with our free will in how we choose to steer our personal path in life, unless they have to intercede in life-threatening situations.
Angels respect our autonomy and only intervene in our daily lives when called upon or in times of great need, when their intervention is in alignment with our soul’s higher purpose.
Angels most often come to us in our dream state, but sometimes also in visions and apparitions, to offer support, protection, and guidance. In recent months, however, I have found myself practicing an additional means of interacting with the angels.
As a young girl, I did not tell anyone about my angel experience for several years. The first time I mentioned my angel vision was on a walk with my father when I was a teenager. I felt more comfortable sharing my experience with him after he told me about an event that had changed him in an instant from a skeptical atheist to a spiritual believer (read more in a previous blog)
My father’s response was simply, “Why didn’t you talk about this before?”
He was very receptive when I opened up about what had happened that night when the ceiling in my bedroom seemed to dissolve… and there they were, a group of beautiful angels telepathically telling me, “We will always be with you.”
